201  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: [Minera] Your next mining dashboard is here. on: June 12, 2014, 04:00:42 PM
By the way, maybe it was fixed earlier, but in this version saved frequencies are finally working perfectly for me!

Very nice, no longer is there a negative aspect in having to reboot!

If you ran cgminer, ensure /dev/ttyUSB0 actually exists - rebooting usually works.
Otherwise, please pastebin the output from:
Code:
bfgminer -S rockminer:all -d? -D
Curiouser and curiouser. It seems like it knows rockminer devices are there but doesn't detect them as as devices?

http://pastebin.com/E50PvhGw
Looks more like a power issue to me.


Not sure of this, they work with the custom cgminer and all the same hardware.
You'd know better than me though. I'll try one at a time.
Thank you very much for your help.
203  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: [AUTO SWITCH] ScryptGuild (BTC Guild) Beta on: June 11, 2014, 07:42:36 PM
How about a SHA-256 version of Scryptguild with the most profitable Sha-256 coins that aren't Bitcoin and have auto conversion to BTC 

I don't mean to troll, but why?

When was the last time a SHA Altcoin was more profitable than BTC for any significant period of time?

I might have other issues going on though because bfgminer also crashed thusly when I tried to launch it again.

Code:
/opt/minepeon/bin/bfgminer: symbol lookup error: /opt/minepeon/bin/bfgminer: undefined symbol: blkmk_append_coinbase_safe2

Maybe I screwed something up when compiling it. I'll try again when I get home troubleshooting through SSH makes me antsy.

BFGMiner 4.2 released with ROCKMINER R-BOX support. Smiley

+1

same commands as cgminer?
No, BFGMiner has a standard interface for all drivers. So something like:
Code:
bfgminer -S rockminer:all --set rockminer:clock=290

Edit: Also note that if you were using cgminer, you had to use Zadig, which breaks the official drivers. You will need to undo this (and restore the original driver) before BFGMiner will work.

Has anyone gotten this working properly on Raspberry pi? -S rockminer:all doesn't work, going into device manager and saying "rockminer:/dev/ttyUSB0" doesn't work either.

updates:
 guys, guess what?..I receive an email from BA:

"Dear customer,

We were unable to change your BTCs at the exchange rate that you have paid us and for this reason we still hold your BTC. For this reason, we are only able to refund you the BTC sum that you've actually paid minus the equivalent of 50 USD in BTC handling fee.

If you agree that this is enough to settle your refund in full, we will refund you. Otherwise, we are declining your refund according to the clauses quoted below from our terms and conditions and will deliver your order as agreed in our terms and conditions.
"



Does any one in our group recieved the same email?? please check your email and reply me...thanks

BA are you seriously??? are you kidding me?......
what I request the refunds are bitcoins values 6068.13 USD(5,949.15+118.98) plus 6068.13*20%=1213.626 USD as
compensation....which means totally 7281.756 USD you should pay me....not just 6.35693BTC I paid you on 10 Dec 2013. because 6.35693BTC today(June 11,2014)not values 7281.756 USD even not values 6068.13 USD in order...
in today's exchange rate that should be more than 11.3778 BTC...
or you can pay me 7281.756 USD through bank.

BA,may I ask you if today's exchange rate is very high like 10000USD/BTC, you still will refunds me 6.35693BTC?




Now, eveyone see what BA is now?....they are cheater....
BA, where is my money? where is my products,my order??

more ridiculous....
all my post on their: ecointalk.net are gone,  when I post, guess what? I recieve: "You have been restricted from posting on this community."
everyone, if you have something to say, you can say it on http://ecointalk.net/ also, because BA may more afraid on that forum...


Seriously though? You've been offered what you paid back. You've been offered what you've been complaining about and calling the police about, but you also want more. They never claimed to be a bitcoin exchange. They have no obligation to convert your payment to equivalent fiat currency.  

But here you are still complaining. In bold text. I'll reply in kind:

WE ARE ALL FRUSTRATED
This is not a situation unique to you. In fact, now you are in a better position than the rest of us here.

You've been offered what you were asking for, take it and get out man.


By the way, regarding your account on ecointalk, david posted a note about why you were banned.

it wasn't able to detect the R-BOX's though. Is this a thing where I have to program the chips on the miners to identify themselves properly?

212  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: New profit-switching mining pool with nightly bonus payout-- CoinSolver.com on: June 10, 2014, 11:32:44 PM
I recently bought a GAW miners fury asic. It can do about 1.3 MH/s. every time I point it at coinsolver my rejected shares hit 25% to 30%. Other mining sites like clevermining.com I only get about 2%. The Fury is a Clone of the Zeusminer blizzard. Has 6 chips just like the blizzard. What difficulty level should I put it at? I’ve tried a few. None of them change the reject level much.

I too can confirm - I have 4 Furys (Blizzards) pointed as CS, each running 1.33 MH/s and over 3 days my reject shares are between 24-26%..... I'm not sure the reject percentage is accurate on CS, or if its a function of the Furys.

I also average about 2% reject on CleverMining.... Again, this is just what the stats show, so I'm not really sure where the problems are coming from.... Its also worth pointing out that despite rejects @ 2% CM and 24% CS, I do seem to be generating about the same amount of BTC per Mh per Day on CoinSolver and Clevermining.

Edit: The % I mention above are poolside. zenminer AND minera (furys/blizzard and gridseeds) show different reject percentages.

Hey guys! I know we have some very knowledgeable people about ASIC in the IRC. So if you guys wanna hop on in, I am sure we can figure it out

I'd bet it has more to do with the mining software than the asic's themselves. GAWminers gear uses customized CGminer, no? I wonder if there's something about coinsolver that doesn't agree with CGminer perhaps? or vice versa, or maybe it's just that VERSION of cgminer.
213  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: Using a university supercomputer to mine bitcoins. on: June 10, 2014, 02:29:56 PM
According to this article:

http://tradeblock.com/research/bitcoin-network-8-times-faster-than-top-500-super-computers-combined/

1 Hash equals 12.7kiloflops,

So, if they were using the most powerful supercomputer in the country at the time at 8.2 Petaflops, my math says 645 GH/s.

Not bad, but terribly inefficient :-P

tracyhh:

I know you're frustrated.

Everyone reading this thread is frustrated

The customers are frustrated.

The resellers are frustrated.

Maybe even the staff of BA is frustrated.

Nonetheless, and I ask in the nicest possible way: Please, from the bottom of my heart, stop spamming this thread with noninformation.

You've posted in the thread like 30 something times begging for a refund and talking about calling the police. I get it. You really want a refund. A lot of people here do. You bought a machine with a policy that says no refunds. You bought a machine with a policy that says they had no obligation to ship on time. You thought it would work out, like a lot of people here did, and now you're worried it didn't or it won't. Maybe that's a crime in China, I honestly don't know chinese law. But if you've made it a police matter you're definitely not helping anyone anywhere by talking about that police matter here.

Anyway, I'm starting to get a little long myself here, and I'm trying not to be too much of a ponce. I hold no authority over your right to post, and if you feel you should continue I cannot stop you.

I will, as a final note, mention that it is poor etiquette on any forum of message-board to post to the same thread several times in a row. There is a button marked "edit" which will allow you to add information to prior posts. Thank you. 
215  Economy / Services / Re: PB Mining -- 5 year mining contracts! on: June 10, 2014, 03:08:42 AM
Can I make a 5 years plan on your service? are you sure you are going to be around for the next 5years bcause it is precarious to trust anyone online these days

5 years doesn't really matter. In 6 months, 1 TH/s will mine only about 1/10 of what it does now, assuming the difficulty continues rising. In one year, it will be only 1/100. In 5 years, 1 TH/s won't even mine a satoshi a day.

There's truth to this but - also - the next generation of super-efficient miners won't be out for another year. Difficulty has been rising faster than mining rig efficiency - and not for nothing electricity rates are rising as well. Nobody is going to run a 1KW miner that mines a satoshi a day. Maybe some people will that have free power.

The point is, the difficulty increase in all likelihood will begin to level off - or the price will rise to keep somewhat of pace with difficulty. If a satoshi is worth $10 then 1/th still isn't that bad of a deal in 5 years.

If you look at the numbers I think to an extent we've already begun to see something of a leveling off in difficulty. It will always keep rising. But maybe it will rise slowly - maybe the price will rise with it. That's the gamble of what we're all doing here, right? We've all got hardware at home as well, I presume. Buy, Hope we didn't get borked on a preorder, Mine, Sell Equipment, Buy New, repeat.

Put it to you this way - I'm far more satisfied with PBmining than I am with BFL or Black Arrow.  Lips sealed

Thats all thats new. Setting up ubuntu as we speak. Do you think I should rma it?

I also noticed that it slowly changes the amus. For exapmle it will do this error then move onto AMU2 then 3 and so on with the same error

If it doesn't work with ubuntu i'd RMA it.

Just to confirm, you are using the custom CGminer and not a stock CGminer right?

Not for nothing I had a hell of a time getting the rbox rocking with windows, but once I compiled my own CGminer for the RasPi it worked instantaneously and without error. So - if it don't work in linux then it may be hardware.

There's also a cgminer-debug command that came with the windows download. When I had an issue of setting an improper frequency that jammed up the miner that cleared the problem straight away. It seems setting the freq to 300 errors the miner and clears all the freqs of all the chips and goes back to defaults

If you'd like I can upload my MinePeon image for the RasPi which i've modified to work with the Rbox. (Just change the pools otherwise you're mining for me :-P)

Prospero X3
Control Board / Raspberry Pi
We decided to try to use 10 x Raspberry Pi per X3 as a quick fix to be used temporarily. Initial results are encouraging (hashing performed). The test board will arrive tomorrow. If this quick fix will prove satisfactory, we will consider shipping X3 Prospero (RPi) solution on temporary basis until the control board will perform as per original design.

Hey BlackArrow, remember when you said you were looking for help from the community in solving the problem and you would offer rewards.

Black Arrow:

You asked for technical solutions. I might have a very simple one.

DITCH THE BACKPLANE
 JUST USE WIRES

Or, if you can't do that, put in a controller for every hashboard. You'd lose some money and a tiny bit of power would be wasted but it's time to ship.

Though of course you scoffed at the idea when I posted it. Glad to hear it's working for you. PM me and I'll let you know where to ship my huge reward.  Grin


Also seriously?
WiFi
The cases for X1 Prospero (all versions) will continue to be manufactured from metal which will interfere and disrupt the WiFi signal therefore we decided to suspend it. Any customer has the option to request for the WiFi solution to be included. We will be happy to include this solution on request when it will be available.

You need to put the antenna outside the case. Try this.

Over on ecointalk someone posted a snippet of an email from Minersource saying that units are inbound to them and they have tracking numbers. Could it be true?

Since that would be good news, why wouldn't they spend the 5 minutes to post it officially?

That's true. I'll only add that David did say, as quoted here, that there would be an update late tonight early tomorrow.

Perhaps they're working out the details of new compensation. Perhaps they're all busy boxing miners. I don't know their reasoning and don't want to speculate beyond that. We'll see.

What USB hub would be good to accommodate this (RX-BOX)?
What USB hub would be good to accommodate this (RX-BOX)?

We have had great luck with the Eyeboot 49 port powered hubs, and the Orico 10 port powered hubs.
http://minersource.net/collections/frontpage/products/49-port-powered-usb-hub

Surely its just a data port, so as long as its powered, any cheap hub would do?

If you're running it off a raspberry pi though obviously it needs to be a hub that works with the pi.

Other than that I'd think anything would work.
