I just upgraded to 3.0.1 (git) from 2.10.4 and my hashrate dropped by 10%!  You broke my GPU?

Just kidding Smiley  The upgrade actually was very smooth.  Love the new libusb support.  Thanks for your hard work, guys!

Hi ckolivas, I just sent you a small change proposal in git to change the way api reports mhs. Can you please review it and include it in the next release? thanks!

Ahhh so none of the Above ..i should have recalled the "true" statement from trying to add "auto-gpu" : true,.... without the True. Duh.

One rig is over  "u=22" the rest are at about  u= 12 so will try the upped Diff .

Thanks.

HI,

Problem ...after adding a few more rigs , my modem is crashing nearly every night. From The readme I see this...
Quote

--net-delay         Impose small delays in networking to not overload slow routers

How do I implement this in the .config file...Multi Choice see if I guess Correct. :')

1) "net-delay" : ,       (i pick this one...no argument and comma to go to next line?...lol)
2) "--net-delay" : ,
3) "net-delay"
4)"net-delay" : 10 ,

I do try to read and try things myself' but this is one of those things that could take a long time to see if actually working. If none of the above are correct and explanation as to what is correct and why would really help this noob.

I know the  --net-delay is a command line switch and is slightly changed for the .config file but can it also be used with the ..(--).

And after all of that , will this help with a modem shutting down or do I need to up Diff \ shares for my Pool?


Code:
"net-delay" : true,

If your U value is higher than 20, I'd recommend increasing your share difficulty.

Just upgraded to ubuntu 13.04 - cgminer didn't like it:

cgminer/cgminer: error while loading shared libraries: libudev.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory


I believe you can quickly fix this by running ln -s /usr/lib/libudev /usr/lib/libudev.so.0. Be aware that this is an ugly hack and you should instead compile cgminer yourself or wait for a new release that supports Ubuntu 13.04.

Hi

I am trying to test cgminer with a 3650D (included in A6 CPUs). I am using Ubuntu 12.04

If I do:

Code:
sudo aticonfig --adapter=all --odgt

I get:
Code:
Adapter 0 - AMD Radeon HD 6530D
            Sensor 0: Temperature - 13.00 C

Apparently, I can compile cgminer with no problems, but when I do:

Code:
cgminer -n

I get:

Code:
[2013-04-27 00:20:39] CL Platform 0 vendor: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.                   
 [2013-04-27 00:20:39] CL Platform 0 name: AMD Accelerated Parallel Processing                   
 [2013-04-27 00:20:39] CL Platform 0 version: OpenCL 1.2 AMD-APP (1113.2)                   
 [2013-04-27 00:20:39] Error -1: Getting Device IDs (num)

 [2013-04-27 00:20:39] 0 GPU devices max detected   
               

Where could I start to troubleshot this?

... and anyone interested Smiley
There's a change from the spec with the ZOX command Tongue

The reply from getting the work result queue (ZOX) has an extra line (vs the spec) inserted first at the top.
It is: "INPROCESS:1" (1 or 0)
1 means it is currently hashing on work
0 means it isn't

No idea why they added that.
We certainly don't need it Smiley

Good Job to the Devs.....knew you guys would be all over this...Thanks

Has anyone tested these drivers on 5850's with cgminer using scrypt?


Headsup for 5k series users.

Ok. I've expressed uninstalled 13.2 Beta 7, ran driver sweeper in safe mode, rebooted back into safe mode, did a registry clean with registry clean expert, rebooted. I've installed 13.5 Beta 2 on my Windows7 x64 machine. I am guessing with supplied SDK, as GPU-z showed I have opencl enabled.

Mining on cgminer 3.0.1-windows scrypt.

I don't see any increase nor decrease in hash rate for litecoin mining with my two 5850's on 13.5 Beta 2 with cgminer 3.0.1-Windows scrypt.

So far, so good. This is good news for me so far, prior, anything over past 13.2 beta 7 drivers, I had sensor detect problems with hwinfo64, and overclock problems, these problems are solved with this latest AMD driver I am using now, also this driver is good for 7k series card I am guessing, so, if and when I get a 7950, I should have no problems, hopefully.

Q: Which AMD driver is the best?
A: Unfortunately AMD has a history of having quite a few releases with issues
when it comes to mining, either in terms of breaking mining, increasing CPU
usage or very low hashrates. Only experimentation can tell you for sure, but
some good releases were 11.6, 11.12, 12.4 and 12.8. Note that older cards may
not work with the newer drivers.

I couldn't get it working with 13.4 either, but it's working fine with 13.1.

Can you help me figure out what is wrong when I try to use 3.0.1? It is specific to this new version because 2.11.4 is still working. I am on Windows 7 x64 with all the updates and I have a 6970 in it with the 13.5 beta 2 AMD drivers.

Hi,

is there a different between the cminer.exe from the downloadpage and one selfcompiled on Windows?
The downloaded .exe is ~500 K and the selfcompiled ~320K  ?


That would explain why I'm not able to push my 7970 above 600 with this release.
Nonsense that would have no effect on your hashrate. The reason it's larger is the exe is compiled with support for all the drivers.
