Have been using Minera for a week or so with 160 Gridseeds.  I really like the Auto Tune feature of CPUMiner but wondering more of how this works.

Does auto tune have to run every time the devices are restarted?  Is there a way to save once CPUMiner has figured out best frequencies so it doesn't have to restart the process every time?

After its tuned you can turn off auto tune and copy the tuned config and pasted it in extra settings.

Can someone help me out with this?  I cannot find where to copy the config from and am sure where I would paste in it either after looking at this.

I settings scroll down to Saved frequencies. Copy that and scroll up to extra settings

Man, I thought I was losing it there for a second, could not find what you were referring to for nothing!  I got it figured out though, just in case others run across this, here is what I had to do.......

First had to go to dashboard and click the pencil icon in the Miner Settings box to save the current frequencies.  Until this is done, "Saved Frequencies" will not show up in the Settings page.  Once that was done, was as stated.......copy code from the newly created "Saved Fequencies" section on the Settings page and paste into the Extra Options box......also on the Settings Page.

Thanks for your help bud!!

Oh yeah! Forgot about all that. Thanks for the reminder. I probably should do that instead of auto tuning all the time.

This is great software!!!!  Some of the best i have seen.   I would like to request one little feature.  I have been trying to get http://www.monitorix.org/ working to show all of the cgminer info that cgminer produces in graph form and have not been able to get it working.  being able to have that package installed by default or some type of plugin (i have it installed and working without cgminer support) would be very beneficial i think.  and who cant get enough graphs Smiley

New minor bug I think, am now getting a "password mismatch" error on the settings page every time it re-loads.  Put matching passwords back into boxes at bottom of Settings Page and it saves properly, but upon re-load the PW disappears from the bottom box and error comes back.  Does not affect login at all so very minor issue.

Hey guys, I need your help!

Who was having "7 minutes issue" with Cgminer Dmaxl, I opened an issue but the author is asking more info and I cannot answer because I haven't Zeus.

If you could answer here or (better) answer directly in the open issue, we could fix this soon.

Question is:
"By start hashing do you mean it takes 7 minutes to run through the auto-detect/setup phase or until the first share is found or something else?"

Issue is here:
https://github.com/dmaxl/cgminer/issues/17

Thanks

I had the problem till I updated to your new build. Now I have no issues at all.It was 5 - 7 minutes to start mining and being seen by charts.One other user had the problem to on fury or blizzard. Thanks

So here's a weird one relating to a non-supported feature. Running the r-boxes with the rockminer-cgminer under minera works great and everything, but it does something I've never seen before.

Maybe I just have an old binary of their CGminer under Minepeon - but under minera it ignores my set frequency of 290 and instead the cgminer terminal screen says "Autofreq:350mhz"

The result is 10-15 extra GHS (cool!) but 25-35 more watts drawn from the wall (oh, less cool!). I'm not sure the extra GH are worth the extra watts.

Anyone have thoughts?
i wonder if you have received a response about this issue? im debating purchasing a few and want to run them on minera.

Does anyone have a functional binary of either BFGMiner or CGMiner for the RockMiner RK-Box?  All the one's I've tried seem to only get the blade's hashing at R-BOX speed's (1/4 their potential), and BFGMiner only get's up to about 50% but has a 90% error/reject rate under the included binary.  Hoping someone has either a command line code I'm missing or a functional binary for this miner.  Thanks in advance!

Awesome, thanks so much for your reply!  May I ask though for a bit more detail how to do this?

How long do I let the auto tune go until I save the settings?  Is there a time where I should re-run the auto tune, such as switching pools or upgrading software etc?  Is this literally a copy from one place, paste to another thing?  Are both copy and paste locations accessible from the interface?

Both spots are under settings. Scroll through it and you will see what I mean.  I would let it go for about a day. It will only restart auto tuning after a reboot\restart of the miner if you don't turn it off. You can kind of tell its done because the speed doesn't change. At first it takes a good hour to start tuning. Doesn't hurt much to rerun it with another pool but it shouldn't make a difference unless maybe the diff is different. I am not really sure on the details on the auto tuning and what affects it.

BFGMiner sucks for the gridseeds.  Low hash lots of errors, terrible. I see JSON errors as well.

Using -d gridseed -S gridseed:all --set-device gridseed:clock=875


At 875 I would also expect a lot more errors than I get now at 840.  Grin

I found that that the extra power used to go to speeds above 840 is not worth it exactly because of the high HW...

Every gridseed is different. Mine do just fine at 900+ with cpuminer and low errors. Mine worked better after the first week or so. Cpuminer just works better I think with per chip tuning.

I just don't want to mess with the furys for testing.

Hi,

Is it me or did GridSeeds work with CGMiner fork before last update?

I was using it to test something with the API.

CPUMiner has a different API right?

I can't remember if the BFGMiner official supports the Seeds. I think it doesn't.

The Gridseeds are currently supported only by cpuminer and bfgminer. I discussed this with michelem a few posts back. The previous cgminer-dmaxl supported the G-blades, but not anymore.

I kept my old binary...  Grin

Thanks I will try with BFGMiner. I think the API is compatible.  Working on some python stuff. Its going to be awesome...
