I have been setting up a fresh cgminer install but I am having consistent errors when trying to get my USB miner detected. Using zadig's driver but with no avail. Trudged through the internet looking for cures with no luck. Ive been using an older version of cgminer at the moment as the new ones still dont cure the problem as well. Any help would be very appreciated.



For starters, you're not even using the official cgminer of the thread you're asking questions in. There is no code in the official cgminer that has a driver called RMU, and the current version is 4.9.0.

Good day,

i have a probem with Oscam

Code:
http://linuxsat-support.com/showthread.php?t=30959

(and Easymouse2 Card Reader) and Cgminer on one Raspberry Pi???

They have USB conflicts and i don't know why?

crw-rw---- 1 root dialout 188,  9 Jan  1  1970 /dev/ttyUSB9

The Oscam runs but when i start cgminer i have this message in cgminer:

[2014-12-03 17:57:21] FAIL: USB get_lock not found (1:5)
[2014-12-03 17:57:23] Icarus detect (1:5) failed to initialise (incorrect device?)

and at the same time in Oscam:

EA3410 r orf-ice [mouse] ERROR: IO_Serial_GetStatus: ioctl(TIOCMGET): Input/output error
EA3410 r orf-ice [mouse] Error getting card status.

so i hope everyone has a solution???


So i think i have locate the problem, the problem is the "Icarus" driver the driver blocked the USB, without the Antminers U2 only with the Bitfury there is no problem Wink

can i set "rotate via shortcut to a non integer number, for example 0.5?

You want to rotate pools every 30 seconds?  That's not enough time for the dynamic difficulty to kick in.

To answer your question though, most likely, no.

--rotate      Change multipool strategy from failover to regularly rotate at N minutes (default: 0)

yes i need 30 sec, 1 min is too much between workers, i'm using it to split the hash between multiple workers

i think it could be easily changed in the source, by putting seconds instead of minutes

o.O

I prefer  --balance to split the hash between multiple workers, so each worker get the same hashrate
Or use --load-balance with the --quota value, to set x % hashrate for each worker.

GPU mining was removed and support was dropped a long time ago from cgminer, please use software that is supporting it instead as you won't find help on this thread for it. I will move your post to the relevant altcoin mining section.
Sorry for offtopic. Thank you anyway.

I have asked here before but never got an answer, so I'll try again.
When I call the api from my S3 via a scheduled tasks (cron job) and a script to restart via the API call:
Code:
cgminer-api restart
cgminer stops hashing but does not restart.

My question is: Why is cgminer not restarting and am I missing any arguments to the API call?
Restart has always been quite unreliable due to various in-driver structures that never clean up properly. Try it from the menu first to see if it works at all. You are better off quitting the existing binary and starting cgminer anew.

The basic output of the faulty cgminer is "clDevicesNum returned error, no GPUs usable  All devices disabled, cannot mine!" - I have googled and read everything around this error but nothing helpful.

New release: Version 4.9.0, 16th December 2014

Mainly the Avalon4 driver.


Human readable changelog:

- Avalon 4 driver. This device has a unique usb communication chip and has Manufacturer and product id filled in so it *will* be detected reliably. As per default for cgminer it needs no command line options to work, just remember to copy your udev rules file to enable regular users access to it (or run cgminer sudo). See ASIC-README
It comes with the following options (most of which are self explanatory or you shouldn't really touch them):
--avalon4-automatic-voltage Automatic adjust voltage base on module DH                                                                                                                                                                                                                               
--avalon4-voltage   Set Avalon4 core voltage, in millivolts, step: 125                                                                                                                                                                                                                               
--avalon4-freq      Set frequency for Avalon4, 1 to 3 values, example: 45:385:370                                                                                                                                                                                                                   
--avalon4-fan       Set Avalon4 target fan speed range                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               
--avalon4-temp Set Avalon4 target temperature (default: 42)                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   
--avalon4-cutoff Set Avalon4 overheat cut off temperature (default: 65)                                                                                                                                                                                                                       
--avalon4-polling-delay Set Avalon4 polling delay value (ms) (default: 20)                                                                                                                                                                                                                     
--avalon4-ntime-offset Set Avalon4 MM ntime rolling max offset (default: 4)                                                                                                                                                                                                                   
--avalon4-aucspeed Set Avalon4 AUC IIC bus speed (default: 400000)                                                                                                                                                                                                                             
--avalon4-aucxdelay Set Avalon4 AUC IIC xfer read delay, 4800 ~= 1ms (default: 9600)                                                                                                                                                                                                           
- Added a small change to look for null data being passed to the usb transfer in the hope of avoiding the crash with Yoli boards some are seeing.
- Added some basic duplicate share checking to try and capture them per driver and flag them as hardware errors, and filter them out.


Full changelog:

- Minor fix
- Fix MM41 voltage setting
- Fix the default settings of new module
- Count non matching stratum as a hw error on ava4
- Fix ava4 build incompatibilites and missing write config parameters
- Use strcasecmp for device matching in usbutils in case of subtle manufacturer
changes
- Add manufacturer and product definitions for ava4
- Cosmetic ava4 change
- Cosmetic ava4 message fixes
- Add sanity check for NULL data being passed to usb_perform_transfer
- All write errors should be treated as fatal for ava4 devices
- Change initial fan start speed, mins and max for avalon4 to ensure fan starts
spinning but can go lower RPM
- Disable zero length packets on ava4 before trying to init
- Add a cgpu device option to disable zero length packets and enable it for
avalon4
- Display ava4 stats consistent with other devices
- Add ava4 to udev rules file
- Fix build warnings on ava4
- Fix ava4 build
- Add Avalon4 support
- Filter duplicate stratum shares from being submitted upstream
- Do rudimentary detection of duplicate shares per device

When I call the api from my S3 via a scheduled tasks (cron job) and a script to restart via the API call:

cgminer stops hashing but does not restart.

The line that calls the script in scheduled tasks is:
Code:
0,30  *  *  *  *    root cd /sbin && ./hashRestart >/dev/null 2>&1

Via putty, I have run the cgminer-api vrsion command and get this (in case it is relevant).

Thank You.  Yes lots of failures.

I have a couple of the Terraminer boards that say No Temp sensor - shutting down.  The board appears to be OK besides that.  Is there any way to disable the e temp sensor requirement?  I know that I am keeping these chips in good temp range. The worst that can happen is making a bad board bad.  Smiley  Thanks again.

Trying to run some Terraminer IV direct from linux usb.

I keep getting the "Notify bad match work" error.  I am running cgminer 4.8.0.

I am getting good hasrate, can I get a little better by eliminating the bad match work?  If so, how do you suggest.

Searching google about this problem, I read another comment elsewhere someone said ckolivas said to use the 4.3.4 version for Terraminers. ??  That was 5 or 6 months ago.
Just ignore the warnings if the hashrate is ok. You can only decrease the errors by running them at lower speeds. Current version is fine for them, I'm just surprised you have one that still actually works since their failure rate is so high.
