So the speeds are the same for nvidia or can we expect some decent improvements?
The Aion code is approx 16% quicker then in 0.5, the others remained on their level. Maybe got one more idea for 144/5 but need to check that ^^

Hi there, I just published the v0.6 alpha 3 release.

You can find it here:
https://github.com/Lolliedieb/lolMiner-preview/releases/tag/alpha3

Last days were a bit difficult. I did a lot of work in the background of the miner that took a lot of time but has no obvious changes till today. But finally it will end in making all stratum interfaces more stable, so well, it will be worth. Also testing a lot with the 96/5 miner for AMD. Unfortunately it was very quick, but was not able to get it stable. So was at the not that happy decision to skip it or postpone this release. In the end now the alpha 3 has the same AMD code as 0.5 giving me some more time to make the new one stable.

But the good thing: alpha 3 now supports all coins that 0.5 did, so the family is complete again and I learned some things that may also help other algos to perform better. So there will be an alpha 4 of 0.6 series before the release.

Planned for that one:
- New 96/5 code for AMD
- Improves 144/5 for AMD
- New stratums for all
- Api adjustment so Awesome Miner works

Hope to serve you well Wink



--------------

Is API functionality so that lolminer can be used with Awesome Miner going to be added?
Every miner worth mentioning has this functionality.
Please let me know if you will be implementing it and when.  Than you.

Planned for alpha 4 in ~ 2 weeks +/-


It possible to increase Equihash192/7 GPU memory usage over 4G?
Actual maximum GPU memory usage on this algorithm is 3.1G, not closer to 4 as per described in OP
Environment variables are set correct.

The description is still for 0.5, 0.6 uses less memory. But why you want to use more when you do not need to?


Where is the next alpha with this market dying I need this..

Here it is. But yes the market atm hurts a lot Sad Well can not change the market, but believe me it its me same way then you guys...

I was wondering what program anyone is using to control the fan/clock/memory etc. I am new to linux and I am currently using lm-sensors to detect the gpu states. I can control the fan speed, but I can't control the clock and memory. I am using ubuntu 18.04. I was also wondering if anyone had any issues with Xorg using a lot of memory. I am mining with Aion and I am using amd cards and can use this  miner on any pool?

Lolminer is included in PIMP OS! Simply by installing PIMP OS you will have instant access not only to the latest lolminer releases, but you will also be able to monitor all your card values in miner.farm, our web based rig management system.

PIMP OS is a Linux mining distribution built on the latest Ubuntu LTS (18.04) with all the drivers and tools needed pre-installed, along with our suite of tools developed over the last 6 years of mining altcoins to make things as simple as possible.

One of those tools is 'gputool'; a command line application for controlling your card values. You configure fans and clock values in a short JSON file, and gputool does the rest!

Please give us a try, I think its just what you are looking for Smiley

Thanks,
Lily

How can I see the temperature of my graphics cards in the miner console? What should I write in a bat file?

Sorry for the delay here, this time debugging hurts me a lot.

Well at least I can resolve the AION game here.
Following the table with guesses, best guess in bold and in red the actual value:

1080 FE (~176 in 0.5):
UserGuess
mrshaw070190
squeekie200
catfish78202
Benchmark 0.6206.5
invizion228
baraday232


Rx 580 4G (~106.5 in 0.5):
UserGuess
mrshaw070116
Benchmark 0.6118.3
squeekie120
catfish78123
invizion135
baraday143

May the two winners send me an AION Mainnet Addr as private message so I can send their price?

It's weird, that I won NVIDIA guess not AMD one  Cheesy cos I mainly use red ones for mining.

Keep up the good work, Lolliedieb!

It happened on MNX coin, Alpha 6 latest, Nvidia 1070ti cards, before on 0.5 they couldn't even work, now work but not stable - have two cards connected.
When I was mining Ether on them, same settings no crash..
ETH settings are not good for Equihash - try to rise core clock, voltage, pl and lower mem clock.

I get many times "Error: lolMiner detected that device 1 is stucked
Shutting down lolMiner"
This does not tell me anything in the logs, why issue happened, no overheat, cards running ok. Why this happen on both Nvidea and AMD?

Which version and on which algorithm?
When the cards are not OC its often an implementation bug on my side - especially the ZERO / GENX code of 0.5 had this problem because I was not careful enough in some routines so sometimes I write to memory addresses that did not exist - and that caused the problem. I had hope to get rid of this in 0.6, if not - please report with a bit more detail and I will revise the code again Smiley

I have to say the optimization was very odd this time. I started with Nvidia and the changing to 0.6 code style brought most of the improvements. So far so good. Then I tried more things I had in mind but ran into a kind of wall - it just did not want to improve behind this point. Or rather - one idea worked locally but then added a penalty later when reconstructing the solutions such that it was almost +-0.

AMD was totally different. Here the change to 0.6 code base was very buggy in  the beginning and once done it was exactly same speed as 0.5. Something is saturated there and so did not find the bottle neck. But then the +-0 idea of the NV code brought at least approx 4 sol/s. That was a start. Then started playing around and introduced some code part that I did not try anywhere before. But while NV was totally not impressed by this, here it brought about 7% speedup. Strange but well.

So, right now fixing more stuff - expect 0.6 alpha 3 in next 4-5 days.

Having stability issues running 8 RX cards mining AION.  What settings are you guys using?  Getting frustrated  Huh

The mining code is not stable for so many cards. The only way atm is to run 2x4 cards. That works fine. Still working on this issue and thats also why alpha 3 will not be last 0.6 alpha.

Hello today I have tried mining BTCZ and my RX 580 Gaming 8GB has only 25-30 Sol / s where is the error? Everybody says they have 580 to 100 Sol / s at RX

Imao perfectly fine. 100 sol/s is impossible for this cards - even a 2080ti without power limit may do 85 to 90 or so but no way more. Who ever told you 100 had no clue.

Lolly, is it worth waiting for the hashrate increase in alpha 3 for old card(hawaii, tahiti)?

Hmm ... GCN1 cards is a bit difficult, some of them lacking some of the newer features. But the Hawaii series cards already do not run so bad - at least not slower then the Polaris cards that are much newer. I doubt that there is a specific optimization for them to make them fly higher. If any every trick for Polaris will help them, too.
So, plan for alpha 4 is to test some of the things recently learned in the 144/5 code. Lets see if anything there helps the AMDs.

Any news on the next Alpha with AMD support for MNX?

I just can confirm that 0.6 alpha 3 will run all algorithms of 0.5, so MNX on AMD will run. But no idea about speed yet Wink


so? what is the problem here, anyone


The config file looking ok, but the miner may have problems with the fact that EXAMPLE_AION exists twice. But else it should work with 0.5. 0.6 does not yet support AION but will be changed in next alpha.

Hi all,

I installed the lolMiner 0.5 in the ethOS 1.3.3 to mine Aion. However it did not work.
I get this following message : error: No coin profile found for coin AION.

Any ideas what to do?

Thanks in advance  Smiley
