I'm pretty sure the donation feature was removed before 2.7.

So the the back-up pools getwork every 60s, while the active pool gets work when it needs to.
Why doesn't the back-up pools get work when the active pool gets it?
For my stratum pools, I find the active with, say 9 getworks, the backup has 50.

Gosh guys, Do we Not have a donation address for ckolivas? When there was the change from 2.7->2.8 and we got that Totally Uneccesary "Best Share" stat, I set my donation to 1% for two days.
I really think that CGminer should have a Prompt of "Could you please help the developer by enabling .001% hashrate donation? There are no side affects"
Seriously, Back when CGminer prompted for "donation set to 0%, Please consider atleast 0.00x% :"(" it made me want to donate, Im sure that if Ckolivas Gets SOMETHING for doing all this work, Then he'll continue the work.

Imho it would be great to have a command line switch just to disable GBT and stop worrying about which one of backup pools had accidentally enabled GBT support.

Too early for FUD!
I swear I would donate a lot to see Con and Luke in a UFC match.. I would say Kano could referee but that might be unfair. Lol

Do be careful though. That poison known as GBT may strike with unexpected bugs if one of your backup pools uses GBT.
You mean the poison known as "conman implemented his own GBT from scratch and it's full of bugs because he never read the spec and made a lot of poor assumptions that don't hold true in practice". November 21, 2012, 08:01:49 AM
Yay the 2.9.4 works great with stratum and eclipse!
Hashpower has LP again!
Everything is working as expected.

Everything is working as expected.
That's what I like to hear.Do be careful though. That poison known as GBT may strike with unexpected bugs if one of your backup pools uses GBT.
Best current compromise is to use as many stratum pools as possible with their direct addresses and add --fix-protocol in case one of your backup pool uses GBT.
Bottom line: I really regret even implementing GBT for cgminer, as it was a lot of work, introduced a new set of bugs, and has earned me zero donations despite a lot of work. I'm seriously considering just disabling or even backing out GBT support.

What would you all do if CGminer just Stopped being updated? For awhile we would all be just fine, But imagine if it was discontinued Before stratum, Or even before LongPolling
Just donate!

You've got my vote to remove GBT support. Just because it's available doesn't mean it has to be implemented. That's how the marketplace works.

the problem was "device" : "0", and 1 and 2 .. listed at the end of the .conf file Removed all "device" : .. lines and all runs fine now Thanks
Removed all "device" : .. lines and all runs fine now Thanks November 21, 2012, 12:10:32 AM
Im on it, I'll edit with news soon thanks 
edit 1 : All GPU are OFF when starting cgminer with -c doom.conf :/
this rig have 4 GPU and 1 FPGA, only FPGA runs on start now !!
Well, you still need to set up all of your configuration in the conf file too... thanks edit 1 : All GPU are OFF when starting cgminer with -c doom.conf :/

cgminer.conf edited manually, have change Engine and Memory parameters and it does'nt apply on loading CGMINER :S
Dont want to use your precious time CKOLIVAS, was in hope someone else could help.. you have done so much work with CgMiner !
Edit : I'll try setting my Engine and Memory clock in the commandline that start CGMINER = Issue sould be relsoved
Thank you very much for your very nice miner, by far my favorite !
On Win7, I have several different shortcuts set up, which loads up different conf files depending on what I want to mine.Dont want to use your precious time CKOLIVAS, was in hope someone else could help.. you have done so much work with CgMiner !

Thank you very much for your very nice miner, by far my favorite !
The only command line option is similar to "-c cgminer(BTC).conf", with all of my other options in the conf file.
Give that -c flag a shot?

I've searched the forum and this thread and could not find an answer..
Settings/Write Config ENTER to default cgminer.conf did not save engine and memory clock settings.
Each time I restart CGMINER I need to set memory and GPU clocks.
I'm using an old version (2.7.5) maybe this is an issue that have already been adressed.
I've also tried to edit manualy the cgminer.conf file, not effective.
Sorry for maybe noob question, I've search for an answer before asking !
Thanks anyone for your time.
It saves command line parameters, not things you change later on. Settings/Write Config ENTER to default cgminer.conf did not save engine and memory clock settings.

... But you are running a very old miner version with some serious bugs in it. Upgrade today!
Thanks for the info. That machine is just an old MB with a card plugged in. I guess I need to drag a monitor over to it and upgrade it. My other rigs are running 2.7.6 with no problems. My GPU days are numbered anyway...

What is "Harmful miner version detect" - using 2.6.1 on bitminter?
If you run a cgminer or bfgminer version below 2.7:
You are causing yourself and all other miners to lose transaction fee income on the blocks you make. You were causing slow server response and a high reject ratio, before these changes. You are getting work slower than others on the pool. You are probably getting more stales too. I know this isn't something you intended to do and you may not have been aware of it before. But you are running a very old miner version with some serious bugs in it. Upgrade today!

Quick question @ckolivas
Just flashed over to check that all miner are up - saw this...
What is "Harmful miner version detect" - using 2.6.1 on bitminter?
I run Linux 10.10, don't have any backup pools, don't usually upgrade anything, because my rigs just mine continuously with no problems.
