"Response from pool too long" problem also sometimes happens with Eligius,
I guess it is due to large generation transactions for payout?

Correct. Because all stratum decoding is handled by small microcontroller, with just a few kilobytes of memory, it can be a problem sometimes. The theoretical requirement could be a few megabytes, so there's just no way it can be modified to handle all circumstances.

Most other pools have much smaller requirements, because they only have a simple transaction to their own wallet.

I see, then there is little hope for the S-HASH to work with P2pool.
Currently I will stick with Eligius but fallback to HHTT to see how it works.
Thanks for the help!

Debug information from S-Hash console:

Trying pool 2, server 10.0.0.250:19332 as user shash:
Miner 10.0.0.251 connecting to server 10.0.0.254:19332
unknown tag "jsonrpc"
unknown tag "jsonrpc"
unknown tag "jsonrpc"
set difficulty 1
Response from pool too long. Wait or pick a different pool.
unknown tag "jsonrpc"
set difficulty 1
Response from pool too long. Wait or pick a different pool.
unknown tag "jsonrpc"
....

It seems the software could not handle p2pool stratum well Sad

I don't mind if 0.1.10 gets posted, but I had some problems with 0.1.8 and 0.1.9 sometimes bricking the board. I think the bug has been found and fixed in 0.1.10, but I'm still concerned about this happening again. As far as hashing performance, there's absolutely no change between 0.1.10 and older. The only noticable improvement for end users is the better backup pool logic, and slightly larger memory for stratum decoding.

If your board is running stable on an old version, I would not recommend upgrading.

Is larger memory for Stratum decoding possible to fix p2pool issue?
vulgartrendkill: could you please post link for 0.1.10 firmware, or use PM if a private link is preferred. I will give a try and feedback here Wink
acidfox: my board was delivered last week with 0.1.7 firmware, but the latest on TechnoBit's DOWNLOADS page is still 0.1.6

i`m currently running 0.1.10, which came straight from Cscape. To be honest i don`t notice much difference. Maybe, with Cscapes prmission we can post here.

As far as I know, Technobit have been sent the latest firmware.

Edit: firmware version is 0.1.7

From where did you got v0.1.7? The latest firmware i can find in download section is v0.1.6.

I also notice some kind of bugs:
For Eligius: when the password is x, it will also append a x to username. setting password to empty fix it
For BitMinter: shares are submitted to default worker, even password is empty, maybe also wrong worker name


BitMinter:
The default worker issue seems just a problem of BitMinter doesn't count shares for new created worker immediately,
it is normal after some time.
But it is often stuck at:
Code:
init pool 0
Full duplex 100 Mbps
dhcp: sending DHCPDISCOVER
dhcp: address 10.0.0.251 mask 255.255.255.0 bcast 0.0.0.0 router 10.0.0.1 nameserver x.x.x.x
Trying pool 0, server mint.bitminter.com:3333 as user user_worker:
Miner 10.0.0.251 connecting to server 192.31.187.114:3333
Then reboot to use next pool.

Hi marto, it seems S-hash doesn't work well with my prefered pool: p2pool.
I can see the connection from it, and data exchanges, but no miner graph appears, and no hashrate increase.
P2pool node also use Stratum, with varied port number (typical is 9332, but I use another),
username is either address or name, possibly with +miner_difficulty and/or /share_difficulty after the address/name.
Any idea why?

Edit: firmware version is 0.1.7

if you are brave enough yes!

Although I haven't really seen a step by step of what to do/how to do it.

If I had one I might try it.

Foofighter, could you provide a link?

Yes, if this can be posted I will surely donate some BTC towards it, if it gives us >10% improvement. Also, what power brick are you guys using? I'm using the generic 12V/5A brick that not surprisingly powered my old BFL Jalapenos.

I think there was some kind of step by step guide somewhere on the forums, cant recal where I have seen it. But cscape knows it for sure

Where is my shipment? Tracking not work....

6 nano to portugal

You two ?

I gues no respons form technobit either?

THey just respond

Quote from: technobit
Your sending is delivered and signed, just ask DPD @ your country.
If needed I'll ask them for signed copy.
There is no way Paypal to judge

I wonder just becouse i posted here?

In short they think " your problem", no  technobit its your.

A little custtomer service would be nice.

Sorrie, but the burden of proof lies with you, not with my. And DPD does not provided my with the info or signigture  because I'm not. Sender!


Provide the info requeste a week ago or send my 2 miners or do a refund.

Paypal also require a signigture as proof


Technobit dont responde to my emails! Im pissed of now!!!!!

EDIT: The items arrive just now Wink

Let us know how it hashes.

Does anyone know if cscapes firmware will work on these, or where it can be found? This ~36Gh/s per unit while it runs super cool leaves a lot of room for improvement. The Bitburner Furys I have, although poorer in quality, still manage to pull ~50Gh/s per board.


I can confirm that Cscape`s firmware does run on the s hash technobit boards. However please don`t expect a hash rate improve.

As far as I know, "software" overclocking on these boards is not possible.

but pencil mod is possible as posted somewhere else Wink
