21  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: The official MacMiner thread [BTC/LTC-CPU/GPU/FPGA/ASIC] on: March 22, 2015, 04:29:52 AM
That helped a lot.. As soon as I changed my port from 3333 to 3334, I am up 6 shares already. When I get home I am going to attempt to hook up my Rock Miner New R-Box 100-110 Gh/s Miners.. I have had such a problem installing them.... anyone use Rockminer on MacMiner?
Awesome, such a shame specs are moving on so fast to make all our original miners redundant!

You can use your Rockminer RBox with Macminer really easily, the most basic method would be adding

-S rkm:all --set rkm:clock=290

to the ASIC window flags - I believe the default frequency is 270 so varying too far from that figure will stop it mining, at the very least efficiently

So i just imputed that information and was given this.  [2015-03-21 23:29:40] /Applications/MacMiner.app/Contents/Resources/bfgminer/bin/bfgminer: --set: unrecognized option

N.B. they suggest switching the port from 3333 to 3334 for slower miners, so that could help, but they consider slow anything under 750GH/s

Looks like Ill have to do some more buying... once i get the jist of this ofcouse... So with slow miners, i.e. under 500 Gh/s what pools would you guys recommend for best profit.... yeah i know the golden question... the pot o gold at the end of the rainbow... the... you get the.. jist.

So I just got my U1 (test miner) up and running today.. I am using OS X 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard) I am hashing at 1.89 Gh/s -2.20 Gh/s. I have yet to see my ACCEPTED and REJECTED to change from 0. Is this normal?

Very Respectfully,

the stock speed is 1.6 and claims overclocked it can reach 2.2 - though bfgminer seems to run faster than stock by default - so that much is normal.

WRT accepted/rejected shares, how long has it been mining and what pool are you connected to? Minimum share difficulty on ALL pools now means it takes quite a long time to even get your first accepted.

I use eligius.st and for laziness I'll repost a section of my response to another user with a similar question at http://fabulouspanda.co.uk/forum/ :

Quote
I only have a 7GH/s BFL Jalapeņo and a 2GH/s antminer to test with (not usually turned on), the Jalapeņo seems to take 2-3 minutes between accepted shares and the antminer had one accepted after 10 minutes ... the minimum payout is way too high for you to ever reach it unless you have something more powerful pointed at the same address on eligius

My advice is to find the pool with the lowest payout threshold and lowest share difficulty - If you find one that suits you I'd appreciate a recommendation as I'm getting asked this more often with the sky high difficulty!

Ive been running it for about 1 hour off and on. I am connected to stratum+tcp://geo.bitcoindigger.com:3333 it shows me pool 0

if you really tried everything they could be simply defective, or your macbook usb port are the problem, can you change it with another pc/notebook to try it?

Unfortunately not. I have some U1 miners that i have tried and they work.. It is just the Rockminers... the two i purchased are brand new unopened upon arrival.

Hey guys, I did my best to keep off forums and I have finally reached my wits end... I have purchased 2 Rockminer New R-BOX 100-110 Gh/s Miners. I am using a 08 Macbook Pro with OS x 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard). I have tried everything under the sun for the rockminers to detect with no luck.. I have tried specifically probing the port, using MacMiner, using BFGMiner 5.1, using CGMiner 4.3, SiLabs USB Driver Disk, I even installed homebrew, Xcode 4.2, I have tried several different pools thinking that was the issue.. everything from BAN, bitsolo, to Bitminter. I am just at wits end on what I can do to fix this... any ideas? (Please forgive my typing/spelling ive been sitting in front of this computer for hours and it is 0230 am now...

I thank you again guys!

To add to this I've ran the search script with still nothing -S cd/cu.USBtoUART   I've also tried throwing manual flags such as -S rockminer:all -d?
