Title: Easy Miner won't leave my GPU alone
Post by: tool_462 on September 23, 2013, 02:24:12 AM
Using Easy Miner for BFL Jalapeno and using the Manual Mining option with BFGMiner.

I read in the README to add:  -S opencl:noauto  to disable GPU but when I add it in the Manual Mining line the miner won't run anything.

My line reads:  bfgminer -o stratum.btcguild.com:3333 -u asdfasdf_xxx -p

Is there a specific order I have to add the -S opencl:noauto?


For what it is worth, I do NOT have the "Enable GPU Mining" box checked.

I don't know if there are differences but normally for BFGMiner adding -G to the arguments disables GPU mining (case-sensitive). I haven't used EasyMiner so this is just a suggestion.

Yeah, you don't put it in at all.  -G is the option you need.  The one you're using was depreciated long ago.

bfgminer -o stratum.btcguild.com:3333 -u asdfasdf_xxx -p -G -S All

or

bfgminer -o stratum.btcguild.com:3333 -u asdfasdf_xxx -p -S opencl:noauto

depending on how much you want to type.
