Hello, I am running one GekkoScience Compac F using the kanoi cgminer repo on raspberry pi zero. Miner will run great for about 24 hours and then it will just stop. Below are the logs from cgminer that show the failure. I tried messing with the voltage screw once and same thing happened, miner will run for about 24 hours and then just stop.

Command I am running

sudo su -c '/usr/local/bin/cgminer -c /home/coletrain/pool.txt --suggest-diff 442 --gekko-compacf-freq 400 --gekko-start-freq 300 --gekko-tune-up 87 --gekko-mine2 --gekko-tune2 60 2>/home/coletrain/cgminer.log'

{
"pools" : [
   {
      "url" : "redacted",
      "user" : "redacted",
      "pass" : "redacted"
   }
],

"scrypt" : true,

"kernel-path" : "/usr/local/bin"
}

You aren't using my miner code.
My code will ONLY do bitcoin mining with an ASIC (or FPGA)

You are using someone else's code that also does off topic non-bitcoin scrypt mining using your GPU.

Ok, is that because my config file says

"scrypt" : "true"

I realized that setting probably shouldn't be in my config after posting.


I'll double check but I'm pretty sure I'm using your repo to mine.

Also, you should be posting in the actual support thread for this miner instead creating unneeded threads.

Just in case you didn't see it:

Sorry this is my first time posting here, didn't know that was a support thread, thanks for letting me know.

I will close this thread and reiterate issue on support thread.
