The past few weeks it seems like I always have a miner that is reporting all shares being rejected. Seems to only happen when I'm using slush's proxy. The proxy reports that share was above target.. Soon as I restart cgminer on the effected pc it goes away. I updated to the newest proxy and my miners are just using windows. Anyone know what can cause this?
Blame the proxy? There are no reports like this for anyone pool mining directly.

I tried that approach, I thought you guys may have some more insight. The only issue I have when mining directly is random freeze ups.

Quick noob question : I've set up multiple pools in the .bat file, and those pools mine different coins. I've noticed that pools that don't have stratum set up somehow... borrow the stratum information from other pools.

EVEN if it's a different coin ?! How is this possible ?
As per line 3 of the README

"Do not use on multiple block chains at the same time!"

Think for yourself
I have a Power Color HD9750

That's a new number.

Do you mean 7950?

I have a Power Color HD7950 and I am unable to change the voltage (undervolt) using cgminer?

Core Clock and memory seem fine but voltage wont change?

On windows I can use the PowerUp Tunner program and change the voltage, but the mining machine I am building will be linux.

I have tried amdoverdrivectrl with the same results as cgminer.

Any ideas?

Hi,

A number of us are getting CGminer lockups following stratum connection interrupted issues:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/cgminer-stratum-connection-to-pool-0-interrupted-issue-188533

The pool never fails over, and cgminer stops hashing and becomes unresponsive to keyboard input.

Any fix or workaround for this issue?



This is still an issue (though not happening since I've switched to a pool with a more robust stratum connection).

Any devs that can help? Or can someone point me towards the process to raise a bug report?
Consider it raised, it has already been discussed but the solution is pending.

I actually wonder if one day you will drop GPU support for strictly ASIC support.
Yes well I'd like to but some crazy nut decided to code up scrypt support for cgminer for a fee he thought was "I don't want to do it" price, and that will keep GPU mining alive in cgminer. That's why I've raised my "I don't want to do it" price. I'm quite sure nvidia miners can't afford that fee. That and the ASIC hardware is far from being "available" just yet...  Roll Eyes

How much would it cost to have a flashing "Generating $1000 per hour." at the top just to fool the wives?  lol
Careful, then they'll expect to be able spend that much Cheesy

No problem Smiley

I'll stick to cudaminer with this nvidia card, and keep the ati's on cgminer

Maybe if cudaminer supported Bitcoin but no so fuq them

That's what's known as the "I don't want to do it price". I have done cross platform code in CUDA before so I know what's involved. Plus you still pay more in electricity than you earn in coins mining with Nvidia GPUs, so it's a less extreme version of what happens with CPU mining.
I'm totally for keeping CGMiner as simple as possible. I actually wonder if one day you will drop GPU support for strictly ASIC support. However, the higher performance of native cuda seems to be pushing the cards into the realm of slightly profitable. A 580 seems to push 280KH/s, which is about $1.25/day profit.

Any possibility of integrating the work of CUDAMiner into cgminer?

He managed to get nVidia cards to an "acceptable" (not as sucking as before) speed on scrypt mining.

It would be nice to have the same benefit in the cgminer architecture (since cgminer has a lot of extra features)

I think ckolivas said he would do it for donations.

A donation that starts at 1000 BTC and goes up from there, that is.

Here's the context.

I'm sorry but cgminer need not support everything.

I have MSI 7950 TF3 OC, gpu/memory/fan setting are working, but now GPU voltage, it still stay at default, I am trying to set
"gpu-vddc" : "1.013"

Have to use afterburner to set it right
