MAJOR UPDATE:

Well this is not the post that I had dreamed of or wanted to write up.  After two days of negotiations with two different companies (post quote) I see now that I cannot produce a quality product on a more reasonable timeline and cost than my newly joined competitors.  It is a sad day for me twofold as one, I pride myself on doing a quality job for cheaper than most and two, my desire to help the mining community progress has been one of my main tenets since getting involved in Bitcoin.

As it stands now I will not be getting my gridseed cable designs mass produced as they would be delayed by several weeks at best and have a unit cost far more than even I would be willing to pay retail on top of the miner cost. With outlays upwards of $20k I just am not in a position to take on that much risk. I apologize to all who have shown interest in my gridseed cables for letting you down but at least there seem to be alternatives available.

The other sources use a similar design to mine and they should be ready much sooner. I do not advocate for them as I only trust my own work so please be attentive to detail.


I will still offer up my services for custom work if you would like and I will have some small batches of various mining cables available shortly.

As always Happy Mining. Smiley

this guy has been shooting his mouth off for over a month now and not a single person has received a single thing

Plus no business owner in their right mind would order 500 units when each of these units will probably generate a total of about $1 a day in 3 months

too bad this:

ASRock H61 Pro BTC mobo


can't be found anywhere in the U.S. - no one has it.

bummer



H81 works fine too. N82E16813157471.

that's great because I ordered one yesterday

thanks for the prompt reply - I'll be happy to test that code for you when it's ready. I keep a few of my GS's on the ready for test purposes.

thanks!

just got done compiling bfgminer on my rasberry and have gridseeds - can someone give me some pointers as to how to fire it up and dual mine with bfgminer?

thanks in advance.

Okay, thanks.
So the question still remains. Is it advantageous to do it that way or to have each miner reporting separately to the pool to there be added up and tallied?
I mean, is it more profitable to combine total hash rates etc. at the origin point (local) or at the receipt point? Or does it matter at either way?
Does one method make more money than the other?
That's the point of this discussion, after all Wink
Wolfey2014

it's all going into the same wallet eventually so I don;t think there's any advantage to having a worked for each GS instance - unless you like to see the difference in has rates and it can be dramatic - I have 20 works set up for my 20 GS's and that has rates can run from 260 up to 415 sometimes.

I'm working on a rig this weekend with 5 R9 280X just for UC mining. If you help me out getting it running that would be appreciated and I'm all in and can hopefully help everyone out.


Can someone explain why ultra.nitro.org still has about 80% of the network mining power ??  Embarrassed

Bumface ?   I understand that this is no big issue, or is it ?

We are waiting on Stuhlman to issue the pool split. Hashing will be divided accordingly. He mentioned either today or tomorrow. Hoping for today.


ultra2.nitro.org is now ready and in testing period. I put 1MH from my rigs on it, but will need some people with Higher MH to help and find the first block so we can be sure payments and other stuff are processing correctly, before we initiate the special rewards for moving. We did duplicate all the accounts. Any miner on Nitro will be able to access his account on Nitro 2 as well, the only difference is changing the port number on the miner. All workers and workers passwords are the same.

Good job Stuhlman, hope the miners will do this!

sure I get a few HW errors, but my reported hash rates are higher so I'll roll with it.

higher hash rates = more moolah!

Been using the PR2 version of bfgminer for my 10 gridseeds. Some observations:

1. Out of all three (cgminer, bfgminer, cpuminer), I've found bfgminer to be the most stable for longer durations
2. Sometimes on starting miner, 1-2 gridseeds don't join. Switching off the power to the gridseeds as well as restarting usually fixes that. Not sure if bfgminer can recylce them programmatically, but that'll be cool.
3. I'm sure you know the issue with reporting diff as 0 for all accepted shares
4. Didnt get bfgminer.conf to work with gridseeds.

are you on pi?

have you gotten dualmode to work yet or have you tried?

I have a very thin tip 40watt soldering iron, will this be ok to put some lead on the tip and make the bridge between points? or 40w is too much?


just crank it up to 900 - I have

forget that soldering thing - unless you wanna take the chance of nuking $250

2252  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: [GUIDE] GridSeed Miner Support/Tuning on: March 20, 2014, 04:04:18 PM
You cannot use a freq of 1000 with cgminer currently! If you do you will see exactly what you explained...no submitted shares at the pool. Max is 950.

Be happy that you are getting more than the officially stated 300 Kh/s! Who promised you 400?

Not that I don't believe you:



New version of dtbartle cgminer...I can tell because of the alternate voltage text (source).

It now "Support arbitrary frequency multiples of 25 MHz" (source). Gotta love change....and the reason I like to compile from the source...who knows how long it will be until someone releases a windows executable of this version Smiley

Consider donating to dtbartle!


nice waiting for a windows 7 version of this.   although running at 850 i have 99.9 percent error free and get 345 or so. a gridseed not too shabby.  but I see you are pushing 390-400

I use cpuminer - is there a similar source module for cpuminer?

I would like to order 5 of these cables - but with 4 plugs on each. Pm methe cost and I'll send BTC or LTC
2254  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: [GUIDE] GridSeed Miner Support/Tuning - NEW CONTROLLER FIRMWARE UPGRADES! on: March 20, 2014, 03:29:10 PM
should I even concern myself with this?

I'm running 20 G's off a Pi and followed the directions written up my miaviator and I'm using cpuminer and my gs's have not hiccupped once in 48 hours.

of course I do want to start dual mining very soon - like tonight - should I concern myself with this firmware, If so - I'll just run out and buy another 8 gb card bause the one I have right now is working great...

wacha think?

HASHRA TO THE RESCUE!
I have been authorized by HASHRA to announce....

New firmware for our controllers.
Could these be the ultimate cure for our hash configuration woes?
No more pissin around with tweak this, config that, change this, debug that....ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

I bought 20 GS's and split them between 2 750W power supplies because hopefully this afternoon I will crank up dual mining - if the IT gods cooperate

Can you advise me a pool with a low difficulty like that I can test? I am on multipool https://www.multipool.us/

Thank you for your help

I use www.BTCGuild.com ...very professional and difficulty starting at 2.  Slush's pool (mining.bitcoin.cz) has an autodiff that will set based on your hash rate.

so are you saying with a lower hash rate you're disadvantaged at slush's pool?

I based my original expectations on he 1 month calculation at bitcoinx and they said with a 190 mh/s has rate I could expect about $14.90/day but on slush's pool I've been averaging almost $20/day - so are you saying I might do better at btcguild based  on the fact I'm a really small fish in a big pond?

you started the name calling now deal with it - no one asked you for a snide remark. Ubuntu is a tool - a computer is a tool. I take no sides and could care less what I tool I use as long as the tool works.

no man it's working!!!!

it takes time for the stats to show up...

now - next thing is for you to change your worker name to the name I give you...

ok?


How long does it come up? Because it's been two hours I think. I used a cpu miner also and it showed up about 1 hour 1 minutes later...

if the stuff is scrolling by then it's one of two things:

1) they're incredibly slow
2) you entered someone else's work on your command line and they're seeing windfall profits!
