Title: Long Poll IO Error Post by: slowpwl on February 05, 2013, 04:06:03 PM It seems I get this error and everything stops working.. Until I press stop mining and start mining - the GUIminer resumes mining until I get the error again. I cant check GUIminer every 2 hours to make sure it is running.
Does anyone know of a flag that says OK to this error message.. or reconnects the program ever so often? I use to get the error every 10min... Then I started using -v -w128 and it runs for about 2 hours until I get the error.. I am lost regarding what I should do, or what this error even means... I have read other post talking about this error, but there program kept working.. My MHps goes to 0.0 when I get this error. Thanks for any help.

Title: Re: Long Poll IO Error Post by: slowpwl on February 05, 2013, 04:19:33 PM deepbits pool, I will try CGminer.. Thanks.
Title: Re: Long Poll IO Error Post by: John (John K.) on February 05, 2013, 04:20:31 PM deepbits pool, I will try CGminer.. Thanks. PS: You're getting shortcharged with the fees at Deepbit. Try other pools like MtRed, EMC, Ozcoin, etc that costs you way much less.Title: Re: Long Poll IO Error Post by: slowpwl on February 05, 2013, 04:28:57 PM do you have a preference between mtred, ozcoin, EMC?
Title: Re: Long Poll IO Error Post by: slowpwl on February 05, 2013, 04:38:15 PM I went with EMC, since it has the highest hash rate
Title: Re: Long Poll IO Error Post by: slowpwl on February 05, 2013, 04:43:24 PM please correct me, Because I know I am wrong.. But from what I see..
EMC charges 10%? Title: Re: Long Poll IO Error Post by: John (John K.) on February 05, 2013, 04:50:08 PM If you want PPS, go with mtred or ozcoin as both has low fees. (mtred 0%, ozcoin 3%).
If you want dgm, go with emc as its 0%. Title: Re: Long Poll IO Error Post by: slowpwl on February 05, 2013, 09:08:15 PM When I was using GUIMiner I used the flags "-v" &"-w128" Because I have a 5850 card.. Are there any good flags to use for CGMiner?? I had my Mhp/s up to 340... it down to 260 without flags.
Thanks for the help, I could probably do alot more digging, but I figure I would ask here. /shame on me Title: Re: Long Poll IO Error Post by: slowpwl on February 05, 2013, 11:19:40 PM going with =
--gpu-engine 880 --gpu-memclock 350 --auto-fan --temp-target 81 -I 9 What does "-i 9" parameter control?

For maximum performance keep it at 10, but be warned that the computer would be laggy. --gpu-engine 880 --gpu-memclock 350 --auto-fan --temp-target 81 -I 9 What does "-i 9" parameter control?

My old cgminer.conf where I got almost 390 MH from it (I used Trixx to overclock): Code: "intensity" : "10,10", Title: Re: Long Poll IO Error Post by: slowpwl on February 06, 2013, 04:10:23 AM hey john, does this site have kudos??? Ill give some if so.
Thanks for recommending this new miner, I am still working out the kinks with keeping my card stable but I ended up going with "-v 2" for best performance on my card (5850).. Ive been looking for a new pool, As I am a noob and found bitminter.. And from past experience I know the first thing I find is never the best! I think I found it with EMC US3!! Anyways just letting you know i figured it out, And I reccomend you OC Afterburner and let this program mine.. Im running 875mhz core, 575 mem , 36 fan on a 5850 and its stable at 330mhps (afterburner settings) CG settings: Batch file with the following parameters: -I 10 --vectors 2 --worksize 64 I will tweak this for best results later, need it stable overnight. I will also have to try Trixx, Afterburner only lets me drop the mem clock to 575.. Thats after unlocking it from using factory. |
