Topic: SRBMiner-MULTI GPU & CPU Miner 0.9.4 - page 28. (Read 45097 times)
I have noticed a problem with version 0.8.0. I am getting a lot of LAG if I am browsing when mining, especialy if I watch any YT at the time. With version 0.7.3 it is fine.
If I run the miner in admin for msr_tweaks I started getting "NAUGHTY3" as response. What is this?
It means opencl.dll is in miner's run path, and it shouldn't be there.
So if you have an opencl.dll in miner folder, delete it.
Might be also that when you run it as admin the default run path is windows/system32, where this file normally resides.

Is SRBMiner-MULTI latest version supposed to be working on good old R9 280x cards? I see they are in the supported devices list, however any attempt to mine 'autolycos2' crashes the system badly, sometimes to the point where only hardware reset helps.
Tried to run it on HiveOS, both on a single card, and a bunch of them - no way, the miner works for some time, with extremely low hashrate on some cards, and with zero hash on others, then system freezes. The 'lolminer' works however (more or less stably), so its not rig issue... I just read somewhere SRBMiner should be better for those older cards, especially given the fact they are in supported device list...

Have you tried to manually tune the --gpu-intensity parameter? Or anything else beside just starting the miner with the default settings?
Yep, sure, I did. Tried to run it with "--gpu-intensity 0", "--gpu-intensity 10", "--gpu-intensity 5", "--gpu-auto-tune 0", "--gpu-auto-tune 1"... No luck. First of all, it doesn't seem to pick up the intensity value I give it, while also doesn't completely ignore the parameter: if I don't set --gpu-intensity, the log shows intensity value of 32 takes effect; while when I set "--gpu-intensity 0", instead of 0 some other (higher than zero) parameter is used; when I set it to 5, I can see it is actually set as 17. Weird.
As to "--gpu-auto-tune", it looks like when normal tuning procedure is started, it never ends - it works for some minutes, until GPU freezes.
Though I did make some experiments, but didn't do too much of them (probably up to 10-15 attempts with different parameter combinations), because the rigs are remote, almost every such experiment brings it to hangup state, while my remote hardware reset procedure is somewhat complicated, so I just did experiments until my patience was exhausted... Then I came here to ask
For that gpu a --gpu-intensity 22 for example should be ok. I don't have such an old card, so i couldn't test. But why isn't it 'picking up' the intensity value you set, i have no idea.
Btw auto tune parameter values : 0-disabled, 1-normal, 2-fast
Try --gpu-intensity 0 --gpu-auto-tune 2 , might do something useful. But if the intensity parameter isn't applied then there's not much use.

Xmrig-cpu was just xmrig renamed, lol
I'm using Pop!_OS 21.04.
I'm not running with sudo.

Take it you have done the following tweaks allready.
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="msr.allow_writes=on" in /etc/default/grub and update-grub.
As normally msr writes are not allowed. Also need to have msr-tools installed as well.
To boost xmrig get the following script from the xmrig/scripts directory on github:
randomx_boost.sh and and maybe enable_1gb_pages.sh run them as root or w/sudo.
In the config.json file change "rdmsr": true, and "wrmsr": true, both to false
and then you can run xmrig as user otherwise you won't benefit as most tweaks you need to run xmrig under root w/sudo.
Same actually counts for SRBMiner-MULTI and not only those miners but practically all miners.

Does this fix the miner from completely exiting out of a bash script? I'm still having this issue. Been using a different miner until this is fixed.
Can you try it in a script yourself to verify the behavior and debug to find out why this is happening though? I am not a developer so I have no idea how to find out why this happens.
Im not sure i can fix anything for you. Miner on SIGINT or SIGBREAK does a cleanup, shutdown and exits to shell, it's up to you what you do in your script after that.
Mining distros like Hiveos, Mmpos, etc have no issues with the shutdown procedure...
And you will prob. now say but other miners work normally [this is what people usually say].
I have no idea why it would be different for different miners (or any application). The application has no control over the script
that called it, all it can do is exit and let bash take over from there.
Are there any differences in the script or the bash environment. Are there any other differences in behaviour like console messages?
I don't know why it behaves this way either. It doesn't happen with other miners such as t-rex, ccminer, or even your own cpuminer-opt.
I don't know much about Linux as I'm just starting to learn it. I'm carrying a lot of command line experience from my DOS days.
Do you run the script as a user or with sudo?
In your script put set -x under $!/bin/bash start it from the terminal it shows you what happens with the script. Also instead of using xmrig-cpu (which is not actively maintained anymore) use xmrig https://github.com/xmrig/xmrig as that is the latest official one.
Forgot to ask which distro?

for navi cards -- ethash 080 bad
078 best
Specifically which one? RX5700 ?

Do you wish to add support for 4000G or 5000G iGPU in the Miner?
list-gpu-devices says and lists the device but the Actual miner application just ignored it when trying to use it.
Said no Suitable GPU devices found?
Not something you wish to add? I was just curious what kind of performance one could get but could not start to even test.

I don't have a ryzen with an integrated gpu so i can't do much here.
Do you need a device ID or something to add it in the code?
I presume you have a list of approved GPU's or something for the miner to allow?
Yeah, but you assume that its enough to allow a codename, and it will magically work
You need sku specific optimization/code and such to be done? Bummer.
It's supposed to be "VEGA", so was guessing it shouldn't have been too much work to do a test. But it's work, nonetheless.
Will not bother to ask you more about it.
I don't expect them to be any performance killers either.
i could allow those codenames and set them to use gfx900 kernels for example, but i can't test it if it works. might work, who knows.
And if it works, it would probably still be better if it was optimised specifically for that GPU, and not just use the gfx900 ones.
