If im missing anything please let me know!!

You missed spending 5 minutes reading SCRYPT-README.


Actually i have spent more than 5 minutes reading it... Thank you.

You missed spending 10 minutes understanding Scrypt-README.


P.S. README helped me to get 600khash/s from 7970

Ruu \o/
I did that during setup and I tried it again in case anything got knocked around. No joy... Sad

This problem is driving me nuts. I can't figure what it could be.

Thanks for your help and suggestions so far though.
README believe it or not, has faq about this...

In my first post I mistyped the 6790s as 6970s... I am evidently dyslexic. They are, in fact, 6790s...

I tried this and updated the arguments.
./cgminer -o -u -p -o -u -p -o -u -p -I d,9,9,9 -d 0 -d 1 -d 2 -d 3 --auto-fan --gpu-fan 35-85 --auto-gpu --gpu-engine 600-950,600-950,600-950,600-900 --gpu-memclock 800,800,800,300

BUT...

Only one GPU appears to be actually hashing. I have 4 GPUs appear in the UI and they report that they are hashing, but only the first GPU shows a temperature increase to ~75 degrees. The other 3 are at idle temps, yet showing about 25% of hashing power that the first GPU should have. I even tried running with -d 3 only and the relevant card shows as hashing, but a different card shows an increase in temperature. WTF???

Also, shouldn't the -d device arguments correlate to the adapter numbers when I check temp in aticonfig? They don't seem to...

Hey guys, I just installed 2 7970's yesterday and actually broke my 7950 in the same day... but thats a different story...

My problem is i finally after months got CGMiner to work! Got the AMD SDK and most recent version of Catalyst. However with the 2 cards together each is getting about 380 Kh/s
I took screenshots for your convenience.

If im missing anything please let me know!!

I still have 2 more 7970's and 1 7950 on the way

I know this is far along in this thread, but maybe someone can help. I've read the readme yet it doesn't really state.

What does "rejected" imply? I am solo mining using CGminer. 3x 7950 running at around 500k/hash each. I've had it on perhaps 72 hours, so far I have had 4 rejected 0 accepted.



Rejected means that the work your miner did was redundant by the time it was submitted (i think).

Joining a pool should solve this problem.

Hey tiktoc,


Nope it runs dual 5870Ms stock speeds the cards should be getting 150mhash each and OCed 185ish mhash.

bump for help.... when i specify to use one card of the other, it seems only the left card gets used as the right side dosnt even get warm.. not sure if its a cgminer glitch, driver issue or hardware problem :-/ still trying to work it out.

Driver baby.

If it was a driver issue would both video cards show using the -n switch?

bump for support

Hmm seems 3.0.0 might have melted the cgminer webserver download.

If you are having trouble accessing it, I also have it here:
https://github.com/kanoi/cgminer-binaries

For anyone not sure how to download from there, click on the 3.0.0 folder, click on the file you want, then right click and save "View Raw"

Hi Folks. Im having a strange problem trying to get access to my cgminer status via the web.

I configured miner.php

When I access http://IP Address:4028 I see the following message

STATUS=E,When=1366625893,Code=14,Msg=Invalid command,Description=cgminer 2.11.2|�


Any ideas if I missed anything. Im running cgminer 2.11.2 on Xubuntu


Coz you don't do that Tongue

You access http://IP/miner.php

Where IP is the web server that has miner.php

and miner.php is configured to look at cgminer
(which, if cgminer is on the same machine as the web server - usually requires no configuration of miner.php)

and of course need to setup miner.php if you aren't using the standard default config

... ... see API-README ... ...

Hello, I have been trying to get cgminer 2.11.3 running today on Xubuntu according to this guide.  I have 3 6970s 6790s and 1 5850 on a dedicated machine, but I cannot seem to get all 4 cards running. What seems to happen is that one card fires up and the hashing is reported as coming from all 4 cards but at ~25% of what it should be. I am sure I am missing something insignificant and stupid, but I hope someone here could help me out. Here is my startup command.

./cgminer -o -u -p  -o -u -p -o -u -p -I d,9,9,9 --auto-fan --auto-gpu --gpu-engine 950,950,950,900 --gpu-memclock 850,850,850,300

I am just trying to get my gear a little bit up to date. I have looked through the README and googled for a solution, but I am tearing my hair out because I can't seem to figure this out. Thanks!

You should set the flags as follows :
-I 9 -d 0 -d 1 -d 2 -d 3 --gpu-engine (depending on what you want to set - if 950,950,950,900 works then keep it) --gpu-memclock 300

For BTC mining keep the memory to 300 should be fine
I agree with using the device identifiers, but not every 6xxx card can downclock the memory to 300. Batcoin had it right when he used --gpu-memclock 850,850,850,300 , although I would drop down from 850 to 800 if your engine is set to 950. You can go up to 150MHz lower than your engine. Also, not much use in the --auto-gpu flag if you don't give them a range. If you're going to use auto-gpu, use something like --gpu-engine 600-950,600-950,600-950,600-900 and --gpu-fan 35-85 .

In my first post I mistyped the 6790s as 6970s... I am evidently dyslexic. They are, in fact, 6790s...

./cgminer -o -u -p -o -u -p -o -u -p -I d,9,9,9 -d 0 -d 1 -d 2 -d 3 --auto-fan --gpu-fan 35-85 --auto-gpu --gpu-engine 600-950,600-950,600-950,600-900 --gpu-memclock 800,800,800,300

cgminer 2.11.4 and 3.0.0 I get an error GPU1 invalid nonce: HW error on my radeon hd 5870 runs fine under 2.11.3, even looks like it's producing normal hashes on the other 2 versions all the averages look right the 5s and avg  values show what both of my cards together produce, it's just reported as HW error instead of accepted on the 5870. Other card is a 7970 if that matters. Running windows 7 x64

-I d,9,9,9

You should set the flags as follows :
-I 9 -d 0 -d 1 -d 2 -d 3

For BTC mining keep the memory to 300 should be fine

I think batcoin's Intensity settings are correct.

I've never seen "-I 9 -d 0 -d 1 -d 2 -d 3" for setting intensity.  Does it work for you?  But he still wants one GPU set to Dynamic.

Works perfectly fine why shouldn't it?
According to the readme 9 is fine for a dedicated miner.

works, still see none Sad
fortunetly i remeber --odgc --odgt --odsc and others commands


EDIT:
It generates stale after few minuts of working. Cant figure why :/
