Hello!

I have a 24-core Xeon E7450 system I've been trying to get the Ufasoft Miner working on. The issue I'm running into is that I'm getting "Error 80190197". I've searched the forums and Google to no avail. Hoping someone could help out!

Thanks in advance!  Grin

Code:
> bitcoin-miner.exe -o POOL -u USER.WORKER -p PASSWORD -t 24 -g no

[23:58] Do any of you guys know forum user ufasoft?
[23:59] His miner requires libcurl > 7.12, but the ./configure script only checks for >7.10, but since I'm a forum n00b, I can't post to the right thread with the details.

I've tried this on deepbit.. works fine, tried it local.. works fine

However, on the same machine, i can see the http://btcguild.com address.. ping it, telnet to it on port 8332.... just can't get this miner to work on it.

Anyone come accross this before?

Nope. I usually remember to put ".com" in there  Grin

Greetings!

I've got a newbie question I'm hoping someone can help me with.  Specifically, I'm wondering about failover.  That is, what's the syntax for my bitcoin-miner.exe command line string to so that if I loose connection to one pool it fails over to an alternate?  I've seen mentions of it and I've looked at the link in the OP, but I'm unclear as to how that string should look.  For instance, mining on a 12-core server with onboard GPU, if I want to start with Deepbit as my primary and use Slush as my alternate, what does that look like?  Mining only to deepbit the string is

bitcoin-miner.exe -a 5 -g no -o http://deepbit.net:8332 -u username -p password

To add Slush as a alternate pool the string becomes ...?

Thanks in advance for the help!

Hi!

Wanted to test ufasofts miner and it works great.

Intel Core i7-2600k
running 4 threads

4way-cpuminer: ~ 6 Mhashs/s
ufasofts-miner: ~ 16 Mhashs/s

Thumbs up for that!


edit:

with 6 threads (17.7 Mhashs/s) it's faster than my GT430 (17 Mhashs/s) with puddinpops cuda-miner. CPU-utilization=75%

Symantec seems to think this is a security risk - why would that be?

It doesn't seem to find it straight away, only after maybe 30 mins of mining. Bloodhound.SONAR.1 means that symantec doesn't know what it is but it is suspicious - http://securityresponse.symantec.com/security_response/writeup.jsp?docid=2006-070613-2739-99

i get error 80072ee6

running -a 5 -g no -o http://pit.deepbit.net:8332/ -u username -p pass

is this a miner issue, or a deepbit issue?

Sorry but the tools you use have no such features. You could go with "-a 3 -f 15" and run two miners at the same time. They will fight over for the resources while they both have work to do, but if one fails, the other will use up the full power. Now if you have multiple cores, use the -t option too.

On a related note about CPU utilization, I am just playing around with CPU mining and would like to set the CPU utilization at around 70-80%, is that possible from command line ?

at 100% CPU runs too hot

I assume on a dual-core 4 thread setup like mine I could just have it run on 2 threads, but that would be 50% utilization..

Just would like to get my miliBTC first before I start on GPUs Smiley

Is it normal for my computer to run at 100% PCU like that?
That's the whole idea. Why would you want to be less than 100% efficient?

How do I set up the bitcoin-miner to use say, 80%, or my cpu at most? or 50% for that matter? 
You can set priority and affinity in task manager, also as YOU CAN CLEARLY SEE from your picture, the number of threads for the miner. Such that if you have a dual-core, you can set affinity to one core, or specify -t 1

Hi everyone,

Is it normal for my computer to run at 100% PCU like that? Does mining with CPU using this software ruin my computer?

How do I set up the bitcoin-miner to use say, 80%, or my cpu at most? or 50% for that matter? 

Thanks for any info in advance.

I think the SSE issue was covered earlier in the thread. I think it has to do with 64 vs 32 bit. I only tried to get it working in 32 bit compile environment. Good luck with 64. See my instrux previously on 32 bit.

Funny, I went through the entire thread and could not find a solution or even an explanation.

I have a Core2Duo T5500 1,6Ghz running @1Ghz. With the rpc-4way miner I got even worse results (350khash/s/core) than with the generic cpu miner (750khash/s/core). Only the ufasoft SSE2 miner seems to profit from the SSE features. It gets ~1.25 to 1.3Mhash/s/core. I wonder what's wrong with the rpc-4way miner. Unfortunally these are the only ones supportet by guiminer. So i got back to commandline scripts with the ufasoft miner and now get nearly the same performance using only 1 core Smiley
The GUI miner has a new release that can run the ufasoft miner.

[ Poor Miner ]
mathx's complie is the only thing that i have been able to run in linux

http://sizone.org/~math/bitcoin/ufa


before i had that build, i ran the windows version in VirtualBox .. works great.


Also why is the Linux version source (mathx's build) v.0.10 while Windows binary is v.0.12 ?
