Hey Folks,
I just made the
lolMiner 0.6 alpha 2 release public.
You can find the new version here:
Readme:
https://github.com/Lolliedieb/lolMiner-preview/blob/master/README.mdRelease:
https://github.com/Lolliedieb/lolMiner-preview/releasesChanges so far:
- A new mining code for 192/7 (Zero, GenX) - This one is based on the better 144/5 code. Compared to 0.5 the Nvidia code is ~25% faster, AMD approx 15%.
Also the code now should again work on headless 3G cards (~2860 MB required)
- A new mining code for MNX on Nvidia - The AMD code will follow next week - I had some problems getting is full stable.
The Nvidia one is ~20% faster then 0.5 code. This will likely not be the final code for full 0.6, because well -
it beats ewbf 0.5, but not 0.6, so have enough motivation to improve it further xD
- Massive rework in the stratum interface - I fixed a lot of bugs there. Most important are better routines to handle miner stuck when first connection attempt
does not work and a fix to the "received new job but stopped mining bug".
Also as new feature, lolMiner now is detecting which GPU got accepted shares and it measures the latency of the
pool response.
GPU 0: Share accepted (14 ms)
- Improved API / Statistics Module - All the stats are now collected at one position in the miner (that was a code cleanup haha
)
The API now provides info about the pool latency, submitted and accepted shares for each GPU, the GPU names,
the GPUs PCIE address (for connecting miner with external tools) and so on.
Hope the new versions serves you well
Next then: MNX / AMD and Aion
Looking forward to do this ... learned a lot working on this version again.
-------------------------------------
Room for your questions:
Next alpha build today?
Yep
Im having problems with the latest NVIDIA Drivers and my 1070ti card.
Trying mine MNX coin - keeps saying my card is stuck and miner restarts.
Not sure what I'm doing wrong, the clocks are ok..
Good question - can not say it as well - but maybe check the new version ... maybe thats more stable.
I cant connect to suprnova pool for mining btg with lolminer. As I understand it have something to do with personalisation string BgoldPoW but I cant find anywhere how to do that.
This is not required - for suprnova just use --coin BTG and you will be fine.
For example I mine BTG with the line
lolMiner.exe --coin BTG --server btg.suprnova.cc --port 8866 --user Lolliedieb.gold --pass x
aion1@aion1-TB85:~/Aion_miner$ clinfo -l
aion1@aion1-TB85:~/Aion_miner$ clinfo -l amdgpu
ignoring unknown command-line parameter amdgpu
What is odd here: clinfo is returning exactly nothing ...
Did you use the amdgpu-install with the right parameter for OpenCL, e.g.
./amdgpu-install --opencl=legacy
Because if --opencl is not set it will only install the graphic part and not the compute part of the driver.
