Cgminer 4.4.1 will recognize the Antminer S3 and Rockminer R3 or is just limited to the U and Box versions?

I really have to find that readme file. I keep thinking they run in their own confined space and won't communicate with cgminer on a pc[or linux]

And again...
I have no clue what's happening...

Code:

 [2014-07-15 09:24:41] Failed to sem_timedwait errno=22 cgsem=0x0x7f943e7f9270 in usbutils.c callback_wait():2766

Looks like a cgminer bug actually at not dealing with a timer overflow. Try the latest cgminer from git.

Tell your friend to go on amazon if they want eroupters. I had someone buy off a bunch of my set a short while ago though I didn't ask why. I kept hoping there was life after bitcoin for eroupters but nothing ever passed my way (like folding at home support or bonzi gpu applications [which do seti and a bunch of other group processing programs]

Ankers work for most but they are 3.0 and will cause pain if you plug in a 3.0 port (zombies and disappearing devices. I'm hoping 3.0 will be bitcoin friendly if people start building on its spec though.

Post again once you get your hubs. I'd hope that'll be the issue and your friend will get their free eroupter.

If its an antminer u2 and its hot its probably not being recognized right. I had to re sit my ant u2's to get them to work right and then sold them since they don't play nice with other devices( they mined, but they reset over and over).
*If you see double blinks somethings up,,, be it playing nice or them being really picky where they connect into.

BTW you know you have a block eroupter still plugged in apparently.

I suspect a lot of the hub but I'm waiting for a pair of ankers to arrive...
Some are (at least for my touch) hot as usual and some are cold (I have 7 of them).
They are cooled by a fan directed to them from the side.
Yes, I must have the BE inserted or I can't have cgminer to recognize the U1's! :-/
Already tried to figure out this one specially because a friend of mine wants to take my be's for his experiences... but i quited. It was easier to let it there...
Weird, isn't it? o_O

Is port 8333 used for something specific on Bitcoin?

That's the port your Bitcon-QT connects to the network with and downloads the blockchain on. If you block it your client won't work.

The port is not blocked per see, bitcoin client been working for 3 days updating the blockchain and since last night in server mode with cgminer.

Is another kind of traffic detected and stopped on that port, probably malicious, I am contacting the protection software company to investigate,
the only information I got is;

IP: 77.221.153.157 (Saint Petersburg, Zao National Telecomunications)
Port: 8333
Type: Inbound
Process: C:\Program Files\Bitcoin\bitcoin-qt.exe

Thanks os2sam

The Bitcoin-QT client will establish 8 connections on it's own. But if you allow unsolicited inbound connections it will establish up to 125 (Default Maximum) connections to the network. The more connections you have the better chance you have of having your block accepted on the network before a competing block in an orphan race.

Thank you for your help and patient.

Asking because Inbound traffic from the Russian Federation to my computer using that port, I am blocking because not sure what the intention is.

Yes that looks correct for solo mining. You are successfully mining at ~64GH worth of valid work and that is the only message you'll get unless you find a block.

If you followed the setup and provided an address I assume you'd see it in you wallet "if" you complete a block.

If you decide to mine for the bitcoin after your experiment join a pool. You might be able to get .01 a week with 180Ghs. If you want to try solo mining try something like julecoin. Probably the same setup for straight bitcoining(meaning you have to sell them into bitcoin) and a whole lot less difficulty[and I'm not mining it Tongue

].

No idea what a julecoin is first time I heard of it. Huh

Oops, I got it, I downloaded cgminer from

https://github.com/rockminerinc/cgminer-for-R-BOX/blob/master/cgminer-win0.3.1.zip

So it was modified and compiled by the ASIC device vendor.

To work with the real one I have to download from the real place.

My bad, I thought was the same cgminer, way to learn.

Let me redo it again and try.

Thanks for your help.

Let me reply myself now that have all together.

ok, everything looks in place, bitcoin-qt started as server and cgminer found the hardware and able to get into the server with the provided username and password.

My question is, how do I know it is mining?

I dunno what the heck an RMU is since there's no such device in the main cgminer code... but anyway if you see a hashrate in the real cgminer code it means it is finding shares internally so therefore you know it's mining (no idea if your fork driver is confirming it's finding work or just reporting what it thinks it's working at sorry).

You can always try it on a local testnet to see if you find a block...
