1  Other / CPU/GPU Bitcoin mining hardware / dual 6950 refuse to post on: September 01, 2011, 05:36:59 PM
hey - so I have a bit of an issue. One of my rigs (2x6950, 2x5770) was working fine for months until this morning. I had it offline last night for some maintenance, switching a hard drive - maintenance goes well, no issues and POST is fine after OS install. So I shut it down and go to sleep. Wake up to finish some OS configs and it refuses to POST. None of the usual motherboard beeping, nothing. I didn't move the cards around at all over night - and I've checked cables and slot pressure. The fans spin up but nothing else happens. I've tried taking the 6950s out and running only 5770 and that works, POST is ok. But any number of combinations of 6950 and pcie slots refuses to boot. Even single 6950 cards (tried both) gives no post.

What can I do to troubleshoot this? They're on a Sapphire P67 motherboard which has a diagnostic LED and it prints a code "AB", which might mean "setup input wait", but I have no idea what that means.
2  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / mybitcoin claim page - password limit exists on: August 10, 2011, 08:28:18 PM
so I was just trying to input my login info to the mybitcoin claim page. I use md5 strings for most of my passwords on different sites, unique per site and long... hard to crack. anyway, my password there is a full md5 string (33 chars) but mybitcoin only recognizes 26 chars of it. It never told me about this limitation when the site was functioning properly. I found out the limit by cutting off one char every time until it finally recognized my password.

So, just so you guys know - that's why it might not recognize your password. Only use the first 26 chars.
3  Economy / Trading Discussion / Why does Dwolla take so freaking long to transfer funds? on: August 09, 2011, 12:00:16 AM
I put in a deposit request from my bank (bofa bastards) on 8/4 and it's still processing. Why does an otherwise instant process take 4+ days? This is pissing me off. Is there some way to make this process faster? Anyone else have the same issues with dwolla or know of a faster method to get money *into* mt.gox?
4  Bitcoin / Mining support / how long does a transaction take to post - not receiving payments :/ on: July 30, 2011, 09:12:31 PM
Simple question. So I have the OSX btc client running, and it's downloaded up to block 138846. I initiated a payout from Deepbit at 11am PST today and it still has not posted 3 hours later. I tried restarting the btc client as well. When I click the payment details button at deepbit it says "No such transaction" and when I look up my new wallet hash at BlockExplorer it says the wallet ID has been "Never used on the network".  This stuff all worked rather quickly when I was using mybitcoin for a wallet, but moving to a on-computer wallet seems to be a different experience.

How long should I expect this to take?
5  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / mybitcoin down or just me? on: July 29, 2011, 10:41:36 PM
All day long... refuses to load. What the shit, I need to do a transaction. Is it working for anyone else?
6  Bitcoin / Mining software (miners) / Trying to write a health monitor but keep getting "No Protocol Specified" on: July 23, 2011, 06:30:09 AM
Linux question here. I've got the following code to grab health stats and each command works on its own when I login as a regular user. Some boxes execute ok without having an active X session on my console (via ssh), others require the X session. The GPUs are running fine and my mining is fine. The problem is when I try to run these commands from a shell script. They all complain about "No Protocol Specified". How can I fix this so they will run from a shell script via crontab?

Code:
export DISPLAY=:0
export AMDAPPSDKROOT=/opt/AMD-APP-SDK-v2.4-lnx64
export AMDAPPSDKSAMPLESROOT=/opt/AMD-APP-SDK-v2.4-lnx64
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${AMDAPPSDKROOT}/lib/x86_64:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}
FAN=`/usr/bin/aticonfig --pplib-cmd "get fanspeed 0"|grep "Fan Speed"|awk -F: '{print $3}'`
TEMP=`/usr/bin/aticonfig --odgt --adapter=$DEVICE | grep -o '[0-9][0-9].[0-9][0-9]' | sed 's/\.[0-9][0-9]//g'`
CLOCK=`/usr/bin/aticonfig --odgc --adapter=$DEVICE | grep "Current Clock"| grep -o '[0-9][0-9][0-9]'|head -n 1`
MEM=`/usr/bin/aticonfig --odgc --adapter=$DEVICE | grep "Current Clock"| grep -o '[0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9]'|tail -n 1`
7  Other / CPU/GPU Bitcoin mining hardware / ATI FirePro 5700 stats? Anyone running this card? on: July 14, 2011, 08:44:32 PM
I have a new box that has 4 PCIe slots and I can't get dual slot or full length cards into this case. However I have access to ATI FirePro 5700 cards that are single slot wide, but I don't see them listed on the mining hardware comparison page. Does anyone know what these cards will do for mhash?
8  Other / Beginners & Help / Sun x4600-M2 Server - four PCIe x8 slots - can I use this for mining? on: June 15, 2011, 11:09:55 PM
Hey all, new miner here. I have this great DB server that is no longer being used for DB purposes. I'd love to get some cards and put it to use for mining. Here are the specs, can someone tell me what ATI cards will work with it for the best Mhash/s values? Money is no issue (relatively speaking). Budget for cards is up to $2K total.

Sun X4600-M2 Server Specifications.
Up to eight single-core or dual-core AMD Opteron 800 series processors

Expansion bus
20 GB/sec. of bi-direction I/O, four x8-lane PCI-Express slots, two x4-lane PCI-Express, eight low-profile PCI expansion slots,

I have it populated with 8 CPU cards with dual Opteron procs for a total of 16 cores at 2.4ghz each. It's loaded with 32GB of ECC RAM and dual SAS-10K drives in RAID-1. I was using it for OLTP processing but now it's going to mine some bits.

What cards? Halps!
