Title: ATI Card - GUIMiner / poclbm = warning: job finished, miner is idle Post by: martinw79 on June 04, 2011, 01:01:43 AM Please help. I just installed a 6950, installed ATI and OpenCL drivers. I get the same error when trying to run either GUIminer or via command line poclbm;
2011-06-03 20:47:01: Running command: poclbm.exe --user=XXXXXX --pass=XXXXXX -o localhost -p 8332 -d0 --verbose 2011-06-03 20:47:02: Listener for "Default" started 2011-06-03 20:47:05: Listener for "Default": 03/06/2011 20:47:05, warning: job finished, miner is idle 2011-06-03 20:47:06: Listener for "Default": 03/06/2011 20:47:06, warning: job finished, miner is idle 2011-06-03 20:47:09: Listener for "Default": 03/06/2011 20:47:09, warning: job finished, miner is idle 2011-06-03 20:47:11: Listener for "Default": 03/06/2011 20:47:11, warning: job finished, miner is idle 2011-06-03 20:47:13: Listener for "Default": 03/06/2011 20:47:13, warning: job finished, miner is idle 2011-06-03 20:47:15: Listener for "Default": 03/06/2011 20:47:15, warning: job finished, miner is idle 2011-06-03 20:47:15: Listener for "Default" shutting down Any assistance is greatly appreciated!

If so is bitcoin or bitcoind running, have you created bitcoin.conf and set username and password?
Title: Re: ATI Card - GUIMiner / poclbm = warning: job finished, miner is idle Post by: martinw79 on June 04, 2011, 01:21:22 AM Yes to solo and yes I started bitcoin with '-server' - it is getting multiple connections and the block count is current.
Yes the username / password are in the .conf file, nothing changed since swapping the nvidia card to the ati.

The way around it would probably be to uninstall nvidia drivers Title: Re: ATI Card - GUIMiner / poclbm = warning: job finished, miner is idle Post by: martinw79 on June 04, 2011, 01:46:44 AM They were uninstalled. GUIMiner shows 2 options for mining; CPU and Cayman. I select Cayman which I assume is correct for the 6950 gpu.

Here's what I found: I found a Bitcoin directory in two locations. One in the roaming profile and one in C:\Program Files (x86)\Bitcoin. When I put my bitcoin.config file in the (x86) directory and started the gui, voila!!!! It worked. I then started another gui for my second device and they both crashed >:( Closed them both out. Opened one gui and am currently running only one device. Need to figure out how to modify config file to get both running. Feedback? |
