Why not just clone the GIT repository and build it yourself?  I just did that last night on my Debian machine...works great! 

yes well, that's what I did:) I am a fan of lean user experience though;P

Is there a version of BFGminer that can autotune the clock frequencies for gridseed devices?

Hah, people snooping around find things before I announce them Wink
Yes, that's the point of it. It isn't done yet, though!
Any suggestions for the TUI and RPC changes to go with it?
Kinda weird to see 2 Mh/s average for "4 Mh/s when it's doing SHA2 and 100 kh/s when it's doing scrypt" XD


Srry! Didn't mean to snoop around or cause you trouble! Just updated and found that magic word in my git console which made me curious. Quite rightly! Smiley

TUI is tough for multiple algos. Maybe stack them like that.

hhmmm... looks weird...  Grin
Heh, you're assuming devices that only do one or the other.
I've got CPU (and plan to have OpenCL) doing both at the same time Smiley

Hi there!

Just found that new "multialgo" branch on github, but couldn't find any docu on that.
Could you pls shed some light on what this is all about?

Would it be possible to mine multiple algos at the same time?
Like having bitcoin and scrypt hardware working simultaneously, each on its own algo/pool?

Thx!

BFG FTW!  Grin

Hello, thanks a lot for the awesome miner tool!
I've been using it since some time, yesterday I set up an Ubuntu machine, when using apt-get install everything works but when I launch it I see version 3.10, not 4.10. Was it downgraded temporarily for the vulnerability? Graphic glitch? Or is it best to download the source and compile for the latest version? Thanks again
Ubuntu tends to let packages go stale in general; I'd suggest a "me too" on https://bugs.launchpad.net/trusty-backports/+bug/1339411 and maybe offer to be the tester they need.

ok, done. I am no ubuntu power user but I will get it a way or the other:)

BFGMiner 4.8 through 4.10 have a vulnerability that can be exploited to crash it.
You are vulnerable if you mine on any pool that uses generation payouts.
As far as I know, this includes only Eligius and p2pool.
Eligius is being patched to workaround this issue for now.
p2pool cannot be patched to workaround it.
If you are using p2pool or another generating pool, add "#skipcbcheck" on the end of your pool URI.
For example: bfgminer -o "stratum+tcp://localhost:9332/#skipcbcheck"

I will be releasing BFGMiner 4.10.1 shortly with a fix for this vulnerability.
Doing so implies publicly disclosing the nature of the vulnerability, making it easy for others to exploit, so I will wait a few days before doing so, in order to give everyone using p2pool an opportunity to enable the skipcbcheck workaround.
FWIW, it turns out this is only a problem with debug enabled.
If you don't use --debug or --debuglog, you are unaffected.

I'm having issues adding the GPU mining when running scrypt. I use the --scrypt argument, and the -S opencl:auto argument, and it runs, but only at around 16 khs, I think it's CPU mining? I have a radeon 270x with the most recent AMD SDK installed, but it's still not working.  Tongue I know I'm doing something wrong, but what?

Since BFG uses the FTDI driver for usb devices, is there any change contemplated due to the FTDI bricking incident in windows update?  I see they have taken it out now, but still plan to implement something to stop non-FTDI chips from working.

Will this release work with the RockMiner R-Box New 100-110 Gh/s miner?
No, still waiting for more details from them on the changes.

It works, but at ~75 Gh/s rather than 100 Gh/s.
Did you try to clock it at 375 instead of 350? I need to do that with cgminer to get 110 Gh/s or close to it..

I get 82+ at 310 frequency.

Not tried higher because I have them running with a bunch of the smaller r-boxes and they don't like going higher.
