fglrx 8.801 (fglrx, fglrx-amdcccle, fglrx-modaliases), 2.1 SDK
Thanks for the help here. I do have AMDOverDriveCtl version 1.1.4 but I haven't applied any profile or started using that as of yet.
That's crazy. I can't believe that there is that much difference in performance between manufacturers. What's the brand of your card? Sapphire - 1GB, GDDR5. My PCI-e slot is 16x1 2.0, not 2.1 (if it makes any diff) |

I am sure I wasn't running another miner and that I had the proper device id. I'm on ubuntu 10.10 x64. I seem to have something not quite figured out since the new poclbm instantly gave me 30M/hs more performance but I never found decent settings for phoenix to hardly match half that performance. I also haven't been able to keep from freezing up with memclock under 1000. Obviously I have issue's and am losing out on at least 20 M/hs.
What fglrx packages and SDK are you using? I found that WORKSIZE slowed my card down with phoenix. It seems to do just fine leaving that option off. My card didn't like the mem clock below 1000 either. I had to leave it at 1000 until I got AMDOverDriveCtl working. fglrx 8.801 (fglrx, fglrx-amdcccle, fglrx-modaliases), 2.1 SDK Thanks for the help here.

Well I didn't get the Phoenix miner to go any faster than 120 M/hs. Strange. The good news is that I did download the new poclbm miner and am clocking my 5850 at 850,1000 now to get 325 M/Hs and it not only isn't freezing anymore but is running about 79.5 - 80 degrees now, down from around 82-84.
120? Are you sure you weren't running another miner at the same time? Are you on Windows. I downloaded the new poclbm also and it runs at 350Mh/s. I'm going to race it side by side with most current snapshot of phoenix and see if there is any diffence in performance. I am sure I wasn't running another miner and that I had the proper device id.

That Ask of 4200@4.20 on Mt. Gox must be from: THE CHRONIC TRADER...his motto is "Hey, it's always 420 'round here man." Good call  |

I'm at 850,1200 right now get 300 M/hs and it seems to be "holding". 300 seems low. Are you using phoenix with BFI_INT? I'm getting 320 MH/s on Windows at 850, SDK 2.3, phoenix 1.3. Linux was getting slightly better figures (when it wasn't crashing ...). I haven't tried SDK 2.1 on Windows yet. That might bring me closer to grndzero's glorious 360 MH/s. i'm pretty sure it is the Xorg process Maybe. I tried ctrl+alt+backspace to no avail. Had to REISUB every time it locked up. The miner also stopped. I did not try SSH though. I might take another stab at getting Linux stable later. What is phoenix 1.3? Obviously I'm not using that...maybe I should. |

I have purchased this same card a couple of days ago and am experiencing the same issue with Ubuntu 10.10 64bit. I tried simply flashing my board with it's most recent bios but that didn't help. I'm at 850,1200 right now get 300 M/hs and it seems to be "holding". I ran in for the first day just fine at 875,1000 but then realized today that it locked up at midnight  ...lost about 10 hours of mining before I noticed the problem. Hopefully these settings keep me stable. I think I'll skip the 11.04 upgrade and any others that come along. It seems any update just causes me pain and sorrow! I'll report back if this continues to be stable with these settings and good luck! CoinMan |

There are so many interesting projects in the works I think something will break this into the mainstream sooner than later and every new piece is progress. BitcoinJ, an Android client, services like BitcoinExchange. The list grows daily it seems.

Well, I never figured out what exactly was wrong but I simply reinstalled everything from scratch starting with the O.S. and I made sure to get all the updates BEFORE I then started installing ATI drivers and SDK, etc. and I am now able to overclock once again I do thank you guys who tried to help me out with this!

maybe
mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.bak ; aticonfig --initial ; aticonfig --odsc=699,994
?
Thanks again for the help. I tried this but same result. I rebooted after the aticonfig --initial but it still didn't help. (nor did my original values of 700,993 or many other combo's that *should* be valid. Really annoying issue! I may just re-install this box fresh, do all the updates in Ubuntu and THEN reapply all the drivers and miners and see if that "fixes" it....sucks to resort to this though. First....I'll go bbq a steak and hope someone comes up with a great idea! lol. |

Did you lose 10khash/sec or 10Mhash/sec?!
10khash/sec would hardly be noticeable.
Yes, sorry it is 10Mh/s ..you are right I wouldn't probably have noticed or cared otherwise |

aticonfig --adapter=0 --odsc=700,993
will set you free

I've been running ubuntu 10.10 x64 with a single HD 4850 the poclbm miner for a couple month's now and I just realized that my overclocking is no longer working (probably due to some recent updates). I've lost about 10Mh/s and I can't seem to figure out WHY. Any help would be appreciated. I don't really know what else to look for to isolate the problem but here's what I have checked so far: $ lspci -v 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc M98L [Mobility Radeon HD 4850] (prog-if 00 [VGA controller])

I have also tried $ aticonfig --odsc 700,993 --adapter=0 and various other clocking settings 700,1000 or 700, 1100 or 625,993 The thing is that 700,993 worked fine for a couple months :/ and my limited knowledge of this setup doesn't make clear to me where the problem is. I'm offering 10 BTC to the good fellow who can get me back to overclocking my little miner Thanks, CoinMan |

I'm going to take a guess that your options parameter is not correct for the url it should be --url http://mining.bitcoin.cz:8332after adding a / to the url I run it now and get
[2011-02-25 19:47:17] 2 miner threads started, using SHA256 'c' algorithm.

any ideas?

If this was a theft, this is surely the most incompentent crime in the history of bitcoin.
After 19 or 20 or whatever pages I have to chime in here...I can read the local paper or watch the local late night "news" (entertainment) and 99% of the time they run a story about a criminal getting caught because he executed his crime with flawless stupidity. It's very difficult to say and I'm not sure we'll ever know. IRC logs proving Mr. X would be nice for sure. |
