THERE IS NO EQUIVALENT LINE--

Excavator is a powerful mining program that requires a configuration file.  It will overclock or underclock core and memory, and set power limits, all defined in the configuration file.  Excavator can launch a web interface for remote monitoring and control.  It will dual-mine with Ethereum when configured properly, but Lyra2v2 is not known to be compatible with dual-mining.

I haven't written a Lyra2v2 configuration for Excavator, currently CryptoNight is a better choice.  If I get the time, I will share a Lyra2v2 configuration.  However, this is a CCminer thread, and Epsylon3 does not like off-topic posts.

For what it is worth, CCminer autotunes and mines CryptoNight with less fuss and bother than Excavator, and slightly faster.  I get 750-780+ H/s at 6.25H/watt console with my 1080ti, and 630H/s at 9H/watt console with my 1070ti.  My 1070ti mines  CryptoNight slightly faster than my 980ti cards, and at about 1/2 the wattage.  CCminer reports hash-rate and wattage to the console window.  Excavator ports equivalent data to a web page.       --scryptr


Scryptr is absolutely right, this is a very different program, and i don't want to go off-topic with this. So i will post for you what's needed in the excavator topic. I'll send you a PM with the link.

That said the binaries of CCminer you got from the cryptomining blog *should* be safe, they've just probably been compiled by someone else, without the static libraries (hence a filesize much smaller)

Cheers.

Thank you guys, your help is much appreciated. I will look into this shortly. I am also kind of relieved to hear that the ccminer.exe I've been using is likely "harmless". Thanks for checking and letting me know...
Have a nice day  Smiley

...anyone have an idea, why Windows 10 Defender v1.257.1281.0 alarms “Win32/Tiggre!plock detected” in the ccminer.exe 2.2 mod r2 (ccMiner 2.2 fork by Nanashi Meiyo-Meijin For MonaCoin Mining)
and moves the file away into "quarantine"!!??

I am a bit worried I quess since I've been using the ccminer for quite a long time.... Huh

This miner is a fork of the original miner by Tpruvot, so you may not get any support here, that said alot of exe packager and compressor are being detected as virus & trojan by most antivirus so don't get too worried.

One thing that you should always check and be worried about, is the source of your miners, always get them directly from the developers depot or official post on this forum for example, not some shaddy websites.

https://github.com/Nanashi-Meiyo-Meijin/ccminer/releases, list both cuda8 and cuda9 version of the 2.2 R2, and none of them match the checksums you gave, so im betting you didn't got them from here. And that's bad. The binaries could have been compiled by some other guy and be perfectly safe, but never believe it, always get the originals if you aren't 100% of the source.

Also you have to know, at least to my knowledge and experience, this ccminer fork by nanashi isn't the best anymore to mine the lyra2v2 algo nowadays, i personally use excavator and it's working much better (15% more hash)

Try again with the good binaries if you want to use this ccminer fork for lyra2rev2 coins, otherwise i invite you to check out excavator.

Good luck.


Hi m1n1ngP4d4w4n,
thank you much for your response. You're right, I got mine from
http://cryptomining-blog.com/wp-content/download/ccminer-2.2-mod-r2.zip by way of http://cryptomining-blog.com/tag/lyra2rev2/
not from the official site, apparently. Is http://cryptomining-blog.com considered to be a shaddy website? I dunno...

I would love to try "excavator" optimized for lyra2rev2 @ NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti instead but I have no clue which version to download and what the command line arguments are?

The best results I got so far (e.g. LAPool) were with the ccminer.exe:
> ccminer.exe -a lyra2v2 -o stratum+tcp://jp.lapool.me:4155 -u blablabla.worker1 -p foobar

What would be the equivalent line for "excavator" Huh

Thanks in advance!
