Or if you have multiple gpus, hard code a device to each

I have an Intel i7 and one AMD Radeon HD 6570

What program I can use to mine litecoins if I use cgminer to mine bitcoins?

You shouldn't split gpus. You can split different types tho like gpu, cpu?, asic, fpga

Bad idea

It is an answer for me? If yes can you explain better? If not possible to mine with both programs what program suggest you to mine litecoins?

Hello,

I'm using cgminer 3.1.0 to mine bitocins and minerd 2.2.3 to mine litecoins. I have o good problem. Minerd strangle cgminer. All the power of cpu or gpu go to the first.. At the begining this was verified at my laptop and then (after changing litecoin pool becouse I found another one better than the first) at the desktop too. Can anyone help me to use the two programs indipendently from each eather?

Thanks

Diff 1 shares over getwork with that much power? Epic fail. Roll Eyes
My 1st thought: Damn I want a U:189/m !
My 2nd thought: No, no I don't. I want a U:19/m with diff=10 !

Today I received the Jalapeno and it is currently hashing away for us.  I also moved our equipment into the air conditioned closet and hooked it up on our dedicated electrical circuits.  Enjoy the cgminer screenshot:

If there is anything else that you need please let me know.
It's all the the README
"platform" "gpu map"
(and if you are trying to mine on nVidia also you are wasting your time)
Sorry I can't read the README for you and transfer it to your brain.
And I wont read it for you either.

If you look closely when you read the README it also tells you how to make money (seriously)

Seems to be an old unresolved issue from earlier, with some machines with less ram apparently. Guess no scrypt for me, thanks anyway though.

Has anyone ever seen this error before?

Just put in 3x7970s into a machine, cgminer works fine for btc but when I try to run --scrypt it gives me

Code:
 [2013-04-29 14:42:27] GPU 0 failure, disabling!

for every card. Regardless of what tags I run it with (even just cgminer --scrypt)

Running windows 7, 13.1 drivers. Not sure which SDK, if someone can tell me how to check I can tell them if it might help.
I ran scrypt while running 5xxx series cards on this same machine.

Any ideas?

Are you using the same copy of CGMiner that was on there when you were running the 5xxx series. If so delete the folder and get a new copy so it can remake files for you.

Well I thought you might be on to something, as I was using cgminer 2.11.4, so I downloaded cgminer 3.1.0 and tried running that, but got the same error when I tried to run scrypt Sad

I'm not sure, but I think he was talking about deleting your .bin files.

I installed a completely different version in a different folder, would that be accessing the old .bin files somehow?


If your running from the new directory then no.

Ref earlier, this is my command line for LTC

cgminer --scrypt -I 18 -d 0 --remove-disabled --thread-concurrency 22400 -u 1 -p 2 --url http://127.0.0.1:9327 --auto-fan

This gives me around 500kh/s. I played with the clock speeds. Raising the mem clock didn't seem to help much with the hashrate. Above 1900, the screen started flickering but the hashrate had stayed about the same. Playing with the engine clock didn't seem to have the drastic effect claimed from the README but the 60% was out-of-range I think so it looks like I may have to lower the mem clock? I think I need to run some various options with that to get an idea of what's going on. Any other suggestions much appreciated.

Here's a pretty big one. Unless I'm missing something.

So I have GPUs 0, 1 and 2. I want to use GPUs 1 and 2 for one instance of cgminer. GPU 0 is irrelevant for now.

Originally I had created a cgminer.conf using the write setting option with all 3 GPUs. No problem, I do

cgminer -d 1 -d 2 --remove-disabled -c cgminer.conf

Get an error "Too many values passed to set temp cutoff". "No problem" thinks I "I'll just go in an edit the three values per parameter down to two".

This appears to work. Except I notice that the fan is coming on early, my GPU temps are low compared to what I'm used to (shared fan) and my intensity on GPU 2 is bouncing all over the place. Clearly it looks like cgminer is reading the conf file, applying (or not applying) the first entry to GPU 0, the second to GPU 1 and leaving GPU 2 at the defaults.

In case I had just misunderstood the format of the conf file for what I wanted to do, once I set up the temperature cutoffs and intensity interactively, I wrote out the conf file.

Manual inspection reveals that the conf file contains three data values for each option, just like my original file. Sure enough, when I try to use it with the command line above,  "Too many values passed to set temp cutoff".

It appears that there appears to be some crossed-up logic on how cgminer handles the config file between reads and writes when the --remove-disabled option is used.

For now, I guess I can just pass the options on the command line but thought you should know about this (apparent) bug.

Just as a note to my earlier issues with the GPUs on the 5970, when I got home, I powered off my system for 30 minutes and it looks like things are back. I guess the card got into a weird state when the power glitched.

Though what I'm thinking now is to put the old 6770 in with the 5970 and mine bitcoins there and put the 7950 in another system to mine litecoins

I guess that brings up that if there were any kind of way to put a "total card reset" into cgminer, it might be a good thing.
