Hi all

I've been trying to mine litecoins using cgminer. I managed to connect to my pool ok but after running it for about 5 minutes I had q=20 a=1

I only had 5 minutes but I don't think those results look good. If I was mining for Bitcoin I would have had a lot more shares accepted in 5 minutes mining

Is there something going wrong?

Thanks

EDIT
Here is the command line and output:

C:\Apps\mining\guiminer-scrypt_win32_binaries_v0.03\cgminer>cgminer.exe --scrypt

Not solving your problem, but telling you what to look at that it has already told you:

1) [2013-04-08 18:06:06] CL Platform 1 version: OpenCL 1.2 AMD-APP (1124.2)

2) [2013-04-08 18:06:06] Platform 1 devices: 2

Something wrong here?

Kano, I apologize, but I do not understand what you're saying or trying to have me understand here. Please explain.

Thanks.
Find out what version that number is - it may (or may not) be a problem.
As for Platform - when reading the README, search for the word "platform" (F3 or Ctrl-F or whatever the search key is)
You have an unusual setup - so you will need to read and understand more of the README ...

Yeah I read that and it has nothing to do with my error since I'm getting way to HIGH (read, not LOW) hashrates. I normally get 170Mh with -I 4 and when I tune things I get around 200Mh, but NOT 3000Mh.

BTCGuild web interface reports ~50MH/s
Your hashrate is lower than it should be.

Small bug here? When I set -I 20 this happens: (with 1x HD 5770)
That's not a bug. That's just being stupid. Switch to -I 7.
Care to explain?
Taken right from the FAQ in the very first post of this thread:

Q: I'm getting much lower hashrates than I should be for my GPU?
A: Look at your driver/SDK combination and disable power saving options for
your GPU. Specifically look to disable ULPS. Make sure not to set intensity
above 11 for BTC mining.

I'm on windows 8 with the latest cgminer.  I find that I have to reset cgminer atleast 1-2 times a day because it hangs on my 7970 running only at 1000/1000.

The last message is usually "Pool 0 stratum share submission failure" but it fails to connect to my alternate pools.  My windows 7 rig with 4 GPUs never has this issue and has been going for weeks on end.  Is there any incompatibility with windows 8?  I have made sure that all firewalls on my computer have full permission for cgminer as well.

Mining since May 2011.
am i suppose to run the cgminer.c in terminal? when i mark it as executable i get a bunch of errors in terminal.

How did you compile it?

I do not believe i did compile it.. just extracted the tar ball and tried to run it... i do not understand CURL and what it has to do with CGMINER.

Am i missing something?
How far did you get in the README?

I can not understand one thing. Why use the settings:

7970 on the same system give 700 kH and the other 500 kH!

Prietom frequency does not affect performance.

Code:
cgminer -o stratum+tcp://ltcmine.ru:3333 -O xxx:xxx --scrypt --worksize 256 --shaders 2048 --vectors 1 --thread-concurrency 8192 --lookup-gap 2 --intensity 13 --auto-gpu 2>logfile.txt

What's wrong?

cgminer supports Cairnsmore1 HashVoodoo dynamic frequency changing?
No, if you want good FPGA support you need ---Miner.

Translation: your fork is optimised for outdated technology. Nice one.

Good - as in - delay the BFL release by almost a week.
Good - as in - brick Avalon ASICs
Good - as in - his new "Luke-Jr is God" thread shows a REALLY large number of commits to attempt and fail to get Avalon working on his BrickMiner

Sounds good to me Cheesy

Meanwhile - checkout cgminer - support for Avalon (working fine but not in release yet) completed by the originator of more code in cgminer than anyone else - ckolivas Smiley

Though there is one thing good about the BrickMiner - all the code he copies from cgminer every release ... just a pity what he does with it ... ... ... the youtube video is gross, don't watch it Tongue
But no, we rarely copy any of the abortion he creates, back Smiley We know to avoid his ineptitude.
You wish, liar.
