21  Bitcoin / Mining software (miners) / Re: MacMiner beta with bfgminer included - testers wanted on: April 29, 2013, 02:05:28 PM
Seems to want to work, then I get this, I have been getting this a lot with different miners, cgminer, reaper...



I've installed Xcode, Macports, and even Homebrew to try to get these to work. I looked up that error and it seems that it can be almost anything.

Not only did I put in ".com" instead of ".eu", I also failed to put in a port number. whoops. Anyway, Got that all worked out and now this is what I get:

After that, it stops. I press Start again and get the same thing. Also, is it using both cards when it says "Selected 0: ATI Radeon HD 5870"? If not, is there a way to make it use both?

I found the scrypt file packaged with a linux binary. Of course, it may not be the right one but it had the same name Smiley Anyway, after putting that in the dir with cgminer and running again, this is what I get:

Code:
 [2013-04-29 08:00:32] Started cgminer 2.11.3

PTrace/BPT trap: 5

I've gotten that "PTrace/BPT trap:5" error with Reaper also. Looked it up and it isn't really clear why that happens.

Let's try this again...

Thank you lbr, seems like you've certainly earned your "UNIX guru" chops here.

otool returned the following for me:

Code:
otool -L ./cgminer 
./cgminer:
/opt/local/lib/libcurl.4.dylib (compatibility version 8.0.0, current version 8.0.0)
/usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 169.3.0)
/System/Library/Frameworks/OpenCL.framework/Versions/A/OpenCL (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1.0.0)
/opt/local/lib/libncurses.5.dylib (compatibility version 5.0.0, current version 5.0.0)

I believe the OpenCL and libSystem.B libraries are already included with your Mountain Lion.

For ZPK and others, I've zipped up a new version of cgminer with my copies of the libcurl and libncurses libraries here:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/uh2mcyg30206hkh/cgminermac2.zip

I believe you'll need to create a directory and move the library files there, something like this

Code:
sudo mkdir /opt
sudo mkdir /opt/local
sudo mkdir /opt/local/lib
mv libcurl.4.dylib /opt/local/lib/
mv libncurses.5.dylib /opt/local/lib/

I still can't be sure this will work on your system without missing some other dependency but let me know if it works for you and I can update the opening post.

Here is what I get, I'm probably dong something wrong. I'm using two Radeon 5870s
Code:

So it looks like bfg would work, but it can't connect to my pool.

I've been trying to get a good GPU miner going all weekend and I wake up to this! I'm definitely going to test this out. Today is my birthday and this would be a great gift! Thanks!

how cheap are 5830s going for these days?  Anybody purchase one in the last few weeks?  I feel like the recent attention to bitcoin mining have skyrocketed the published prices (eg. $65-105 for a used card on the main BTC wiki.)

Not really sure but I know that the reason 58XX series of cards are more expensive is just because they are hard to come by. Amazon has 5830s at $200 and more (some over $300). I feel like I got pretty sweet deals on my 5870s because Amazon has those for over $400.

This Mining hardware wiki prices the 5830 at ~$100.

Thanks guys for all the help. I found a new set up that I'd like some feedback on. I'd like to keep it under $1000 so I know the 1 btc a week goal is out of question. I'll post the potential rig when I get home today around 6pm est if you guys are still interested. Thanks for all the help so far.

Can't wait to see it! I'm in the Eastern US also. Ohio Valley area. Where are you?

Yeah, finally got it to him. Kinda panicked Smiley sorry and thanks.

I would definitely bump up that video card and certainly see if you can fine two cards... Craigslist is full of gamers selling off old video cards to get the latest and greatest. They have no idea what they have. I found a 5870 for $99 and traded for another. With those two I'm getting ~700mhash on an 850w PSU. I could get about 100mhash faster if I overclock the cards, but I plan to use the cards for other things once my ASIC arrives Smiley

Have quoted you in Slush's thread.

Thanks Kruncha!

phillyj, Slush's OVH servers got hacked, not individual miners. He transferred over to EC2 and is trying to get everything back online.
33  Other / Beginners & Help / Someone please get this to Slush on: April 24, 2013, 04:36:30 PM
I put my miner back online last night after Slush said that stratum.bitcoin.cz was good to go. I didn't even think to check where the DNS was resolving to. After reading some posts this morning I figured I'd better check. What I have is in the image below and I think it's important that Slush be informed. I'm mining through the stratum proxy that Slush provided. If what I'm seeing is correct then I've been providing 700mhash to the hackers for 15 hours.

34  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Newbie restrictions on: April 24, 2013, 04:26:40 PM
I really need to post something in the slush pool forum. Can a moderator please temporarily unblock me please? I know this is my first post because I haven't been mining long and the first real issue with the slush hack came up just now. I think I have important info for Slush. I just checked where the DNS is being resolved for the proxy and it came up still on the OVH server. If that's the case then I've been sending about 700mhash to the hacker for almost 15 hours!
