Good day Luke-Jr,

My Internet goes in and out every so often.  Is there a way for the miner to go into standby mode, then continue mining when Internet connection re-establishes, rather than crash?  Thanks in advance for any info provided.

Edit: I noticed the miner went into wait mode when the internet went out for a short period.  I wonder what's be causing it to crash lately, then.

Hi,

Currently I'm running BFGMINER (diablo kernel) with my 7950 with good result ~630mh/s
But I have a possibility to have a 5870 old card gift by a friend
It's possible to run 2 separate instance of bfgminer ?

When I'm off (work or sleep) 2 cards run

When I want to play battlefield 3, watching video etc... I turn off the 7950 but the 5870 keep going ?

Thanks you in advance

Dermo
Check out the -d option...
Or just disable/enable the GPUs in the TUI.

bfgminer had been running great for a week now, but I just went to check it and my pc had restarted. I suspect our cat stepped on the power button(don't know why hp put it on top).

 Now when I try to start bfgminer in the terminal I get this : " error while loading shared libraries: libblkmaker_jansson-0.1.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"
 
What is it? I'm still kind of a linux newbie.

run it from where you compiled the source. So instead of

$ bfgminer ....

Do this

$ cd /path/to/where/it/was/built/
$ ./bfgminer ...

What can I do? Do you have a German support?


Did you pay for the software "bfgminer". If you didnt pay anything for the software - how should he pay german speaking staff to help users?

Did you donate anything recently? not?

No german support - sorry for ya.


Candoo ganz ehrlich, Dein Enthusiasmus und Engagement in allen Ehren - mein ich wirklich. Aber den Post hättest Dir sparen können.

I compiled it with instructions I found online. I installed some Ubuntu base updates yesterday. Could that have deleted something?

Edit: It was probably something to do with Ubuntu's updates. I purged bfgminer using the terminal and re-installed it from the PPA. It's working fine now. I'm learning  Grin

How did you install it? Sounds like a file got deleted somehow...

Mining since May 2011.
Sample output:
Code:
 bfgminer version 3.0.2 - Started: [2013-04-19 18:33:55] - [  4 days 03:20:01]

Luke-Jr, what does "5s" (last 5 seconds?), "avg" (probably average hashrate since started mining) and "u" (this one I have no idea)
From the README.txt
Code:
Each column is as follows:
5s:  A 5 second exponentially decaying average hash rate
avg: An all time average hash rate
u:   An all time average hash rate based on actual accepted shares
A:   The number of Accepted shares
R:   The number of Rejected shares
S:   Stale shares discarded (not submitted so don't count as rejects)
HW:  The number of HardWare errors
U:   The Utility defined as the number of shares / minute
BS:  The all time Best Share difficulty you've found

Got a 7870(Pitcairn) for my desktop (Win 8 - 64 bit) while waiting for my old card to go in for warranty replacement. Not overclocking for now, because my desktop isn't great on ventilation.

Running 13.4 Catalyst and APP SDK 2.8

On my dedicate mining machine (Win 7 -32 bit) and with my previous desktop card (6770), I used BFGMiner with no issues.

Now, BFGMiner (3.0.2 win64) crashes out instantly unless I am using poclbm, which even though the console hasrate is high, it is giving me garbage performance on every pool I try it on (Eligius, BTCGuild, Deepbit). I assume this is due to poclbm and stratum issues.

If I use CGMiner, with any kernel, including poclbm, there are no issues including with stratum, other than poclbm tends to overstate its hashrate in the console.

Any ideas on what I can do to get BFGMiner to run? I would rather use the same client for all my machines.
I had the exact same issue (Windows 7 x64 running 13.4).  It is the 13.4 AMD drivers.  For some reason AMD removed 13.1 from their site, but if you do a search on the internet you can find the 13.1 drives and download it.  That fixes the issue.  No more crashing

Unfortunately, there will be no compiling of any sort on this Windows machine, its not set up for dev.

Does that mean I am pretty much SOL until I have time to do that?

Compile with debugging information:
Code:
./configure CFLAGS='-O0 -ggdb' && make  # note the OH ZERO
Then run it in gdb:
Code:
gdb --args ./bfgminer -T -D 
When it crashes, it will drop you to a gdb prompt; run:
Code:
thr app all bt
... and pastebin the output.
