So, what's the status on Garza? Is he in prison yet?
I looked at the first page of this thread... It doesn't look like its been updated since January...

So,is this Minexcoin one of those coins that has no mining.... or can this be mined?
I only did a brief scan through the posts, I didn't see anything related to mining.... 62 pages to read through? Nah, I'll ask first. :-)
Hello. Everyone who wants will be able to mine Minexcoin. When? What algo? details details please :-) |

I am currently running two 295x2 on MSI 970A-G43 mobo with zero problems, powered by 2 x rm1000.
Have you tried with only one card? Mobo bios updated?
Ok, I updated the bios to the latest, but still I cannot get both gpus to run correctly. I was able to tweak the clocks to 825/825 which gives me around 90MH, basically 3 GPUs worth of hashrate... out of curiousity, I added -t 3 to the ethminer command to run 3 of the 4 GPUs, and sure enough, it ran at stock clocks , but the minute I tweaked the clocks, poof, it crashes. What is more troublesome, I added a pair of powered PCI-e extenders so the cards were not drawing any power off the PCI-e slots on the motherboard, that didn't work at all. That setup worked just fine with this one board I had, some cheap ass duo core, but alas, I accidentially cooked that board.... now I cannot get any other board to run both GPUs either directly plugged into the motherboard or through extenders. So, I'm thinking the motherboard's PCI-e slot power is getting weak |

I have two XFX R9 295x2 GPUs plugged into the 16x slots on an MSI 970A-G46 motherboard.
The system will boot up and operate fine. Mining ethereum - I can load the DAG and the second that it starts mining with the stock clocks on the GPUs, One of the cards will litterally power down ( lights out) while the other crashes and gives me a black screen. Upon further testing, I can downclock and all 4 GPU cores will run, BUT, I can only run the GPU's at around 650Mhz GPU clock and 650Mhz Mem clock for all 4 cores. If I try to increase any further, once again, I'll crash.
If I just use one R9 295x2 card, I can go stock clocks, plus over clocking.
The motherboard is on its own 650W power supply while the GPUs have their own 2980W power supply, so the GPUs have plenty of 12V, I'm just wondering if the PCI-e interface is the limiting factor that is causing the cards to crash... IE: not enough current on the buss
This motherboard is a gaming motherboard, however I have never been much of an overclocker since I really don't play games, so going into the BIOS to tweak settings is abit new. Can I change anything in the BIOS to make this run the two R9 295x2 GPUs???

I'm having a little trouble installing ethminer. In the past I tried using Ubuntu 14.04.5 desktop 64 bit, but I was having issues getting the amd software and drivers to install. Ubuntu 15.05 has always been my "go to" OS for ethereum mining because of the ease of installing the drivers and ethminer. Although, its no longer supported by Ubuntu. (so sad) Ubuntu 16.04, the last I saw was that Ubuntu was not allowing FGLRX-UPDATES to be installed. Kinda need that for my R9 295X2 cards. Today I looked for a guide and saw some mumble jumble of how to mine with 16.04 but good gawd, what a load of work. I gave up and went back to installing on 15.04. HOWEVER: FGLRX-UPDATES installed easily as usual, but when I tried to install cpp-ethereum I got an error. I first added the repositories: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ethereum/ethereum-qt
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ethereum/ethereum
sudo apt-get update
Then I typed: sudo apt-get install cpp-ethereum Which resulted in the error: Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done

Allrighty then .... I tried to install alethzero, that had unmet dependenciy of libqt5webengine5, I tried to install libqt5webengine5 and wound up saying the package is missing, obsoleted etc .... and has no instalation candidate. WTF! .... I --NEVER-- had any issues before... and I like using ethminer .... Did something just break with the fork? or what is going on? How do I install ethminer now? Thanks |

Usually Claymore's miners sport some pretty hefty increases in hashrate over other miners.
However, when I tried this miner tonight, I got a consistent 113M to 114M, which is slower than what I previously have been using - ethminer. With ethminer, I get anywhere between 125M and 130M depending on the overclocking. About 118M to 119M is what I get using stock clocks with ethminer.
my testing rig:
2.5ghz dual core cpu
4gb ram
some generic MB
2 - Radeon R9 295x2 cards with high cfm Delta fans running 100% on the radiators
Motherboard power supply is a tiny 180W power supply and draws between 80W and 120W at 120VAC
GPU power supply is an IBM 2980W power supply drawing about 1060W at 240VAC - relay power switched off the 180W supply

you should join Slack man, there is some very good miners there who can help you. For the trusted setup, yes it's one question, some people don't believe Zcash setup. I can't imagine it was a conspiracy lol, but at some point Zclassic will maybe to redo it. We will see, Devs are working on a road map, hey guys the coin is very young, give it sometime  Call me a NEWB but, I've never used slack? A quick look at slack .com, I guess I'd need to be a member of a team in order to use it.... how do I join? Link? Been screwing around with both wired and wireless voice, text and data communications since the early 90's Been messin' with Linux since 2004 - RHEL, Ubuntu, Tiny Core etc both cmd line and GUI Been mining various crypto for the last 3+ years BUT, I never used Slack .... |

I have several multi cpu servers, all with some pretty potent xeon multi core processors, most with 16gb or more ram. There are no GPUs available to use with these servers so it would be CPU ONLY mining -- all my GPUs are mining ETH-F While the diff is low, I'd like to CPU mine SOLO. Looking all over the web, its kind of a confusing mess of zcash testnet, zcash mainnet and zclassic hodgepodge. I have not found how to CPU mine SOLO other than using ./zcashd. Everything is pool mining and I have not run across what I use use in the .conf file ..... ---zcash uses addnode=mainnet.z.cash--- What does zclassic use? addnode=  Does anyone have any other tips how to mine with a CPU & SOLO? Thank you |

I need a little help.... I have a GPU miner with 2 Radeon R9 295x2 cards ( 4 GPU cores total ) I'm running Ubuntu 15.04 I can mine just fine using Zogminer and I get 15-16 H/s per GPU core. However, I have not figured out how to overclock my GPUs when Zcash mining - amdconfig -odsc commands do not seem to change the hash output. The real problem I've run into is a problem when solo mining using zcashd I use the following command to run zcashd to try and solo mine My zcash.conf file consists of: addnode=mainnet.z.cash
rpcuser=rpcusername
rpcpassword=rpcpassword
gen=1
GPU=1
genproclimit=2
equihashsolver=tromp I'm hashing with something, more likely the CPU. My motherboard wattage usage goes up, but the GPU's temperatures remain at idle temps and the GPU's power supply also remains at idle wattage Where is my error.... I'm trying to GPU mine, not CPU mine. Thank you |

Anyone looking for a couple bone stock S7's ?
I thought I'd post here to see if anyone could use a couple more S7's before posting them on eBay. I'd prefer not to pay the eBay fees ;-)
I have 1 - S7 B9 and one S7 B11 for sale. I'm asking $425 USD each or $800 USD for the pair.... OR OFFER.
Able to accept BTC, ETH-HF or Peercoin as payment... or if in the USA, a good ol bank cashiers check from a US BANK.(There will be a short hold time to clear the check)
Continental USA SHIPPING INCLUDED!
International Shipping Available but at cost.
Unit(s) will be shipped the day after payment has cleared - Tracking number(s) will be provided.
They come with the original packaging and box!
Both are in good running condition. Always disassembled every couple months and cleaned to keep the operating temps low.
No abnormal noise, no dead chips, no burnt connectors.
They have not been hacked, and only have been overclocked for about a week of run time after the warentee expired to analyze cost vs profit vs risk of failure. It turned out that with my electrical cost, it was not beneficial to OC so for the most of their 1 year of running, they were stock clocked.
They will be shipped with the defaults set and labeled with the batch number.
If interested, either contact me via private message, or contact me via email at big.banana.tech &^%_AT_%^&_gmail_!^#_DOT_#^!com
I ship only via FedEX or UPS - your choice.
A picture... They are in the far back of the rack, butted up against a door with the window open for direct venting, on the shelfs, in front of the S7's are my liquid cooled GPU mining rigs, so there just is no easy way to get a good picture without going throught a lot of hub bub of unbolting the rack from the bracket holding it to the door, and making room to twist the rack around....or disconnecting my GPU rigs and moving them out of the way. Anyways, we all know what an S7 looks like.
Thank you

I'm mining ETH-HF on Dwarfpoof after a few weeks of down-time due to a cooked motherboard. Now that I'm back up and running with a fresh install of Ubuntu 15.04, I've been noticing that I'm getting a lot of "GPU gave incorrect result", "cannot connect" and a few other errors while mining. I've also noticed that even though I have FARM-RECHECK 300 in the command, which in the past led to each "hashing line" displayed on the monitor being displayed every .3 seconds or so at a very steady rate, now its a very ragged rate of .7 to 1.0 second, sometimes as slow as 6-7 seconds My ethminer command is as follows: ethminer --farm-recheck 300 -G -t 4 -F eth-us.dwarfpool.com:80/0x1400xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx08eB7829C --cl-local-work 256 --cl-global-work 16896 are these issues because of the attacks on the network? Or would it be the motherboard/processor being too slow ( Pentium Dual Core 3GHz with 4GB RAM , 2- R9 295X2 cards, Ubuntu 15.04 Desktop ) OR maybe I have something misconfigured? Also, For some reason, I can mine using both cards, but trying to overclock using aticonfig or even checking the temperature of each of the 4 GPU cores, I can only control and/or access the temperature of the "default" GPU. The other 3 GPUs are inaccessible with the aticonfig command. Now this is a misconfiguration of something because the previous installation of ubuntu 15.04 mined just fine and I have full control over all the GPUs. ( That old installation was all kinds of mucked up with Monero and other coin mining junk - the reason for re-installing from scratch) FYI - I followed this guide with an exception of using thelatest APP and Display Library downloaded from AMD, not the older stuff noted in the guide. http://forum.ethereum.org/discussion/2695/frontier-mining-setup-notes-ubuntu-15-04-geth-v1-0-amd-ethminerAny pointers to get this sorted out would be helpful Thanks Well .... this ethereum miner became unresponsive, so I rebooted it, Updates to ubuntu and whatnot were available so I did sudo update / upgrade / dist-upgrade, along with cleaning up the system with sudo clean / autoclean / purge / autoremove ..... then I rebooted the system and started mining again.... now I can use aticonfig and use overdrive commands. The system fixed itself after quite a long spell of not being able to tweak the GPUs. So that problem is fixed. I'm still getting frequent "GPU gave incorrect result" errors and the mining/hashing displayed is still displaying at a ragged rate, not a smooth consistent rate. What spooks me the most when mining is I think the system froze from time to time... It'll be hashing and displaying the output every .6-.7 seconds -- even though I have the FARM RECHECK set at 300 , but then it seems like ethminer gets stuck when a result is found and its hangs for 7-15 seconds before displaying that a result was found etc. Anyone have any input on how to smooth out this mining.... IE optimize the display output / hanging issue? I'm sure this is hurting my hashrate. Thanks |

I have same problem.. Not running claymore..
Are you running wolf-xmr-miner? or trying to? I just got mine going... I'll see if I can help with what I just learned |
|
|
|
I'm going to try one more thing. I'm going to git clone the repo then make ..... and see what shakes loose
I deleted everything related to wolf-xmr-miner and emptied the trash --- a clean slate. Then ..... cd ~
git clone https://github.com/wolf9466/wolf-xmr-miner
cd /home/monerominer/wolf-xmr-miner
make
Use gedit to edit xmr.conf to change the configuration to suit ( IE pool info & wallet address.paymentID) And its working.... now for the tweaking Thanks for the help. |
|
|
|
I edited the xmr.conf with my wallet address and payment id as well as the pool that I want to mine on.
However, I'm still getting that cl error, but I noticed that the pool is NOT what I entered, and the payment address is not mine.
Where if the correct configuration file found. I edeted the xmr.conf found in the same folder as miner, I also found xmr.conf~ in my home folder after pressing ctrl-h.
Somewhere its getting the config info to mine with a pool and address that is not mine.
Do you have a link to wolf's repo you are trying to compile from? Is there a command line option to specify the conf file path or anything? thanks. right from github ... https://github.com/wolf9466/wolf-xmr-miner/releasesI downloaded the Source Code tar.gz file I'm going to try one more thing. I'm going to git clone the repo then make ..... and see what shakes loose |

From the looks of it, you just need to
1. make sure that miner exists in the current directory (ls -al)
2. start the miner like this ./miner --flags etc etc ( ./ is current dir).
Thanks
edit - sometimes it is named "minerd", but IDK in your case, I don't use that miner.
the problem is that your current directory is not in your %PATH% so it can't see miner, so you have to start it by ./ or fully qualified path e.g. /usr/local/src/miner-src/build/miner --flags
