is the fixer broken or is it just me?

installed new copy of BAMT 0.5 on a new rig and fixer is telling me it is up to date?

Seems like the repo is offline

But not sure why it wouldn't throw an error that it can't reach the repo, instead of assuming everything was up to date.

Is anyone sucessfully running their BFL Singles against p2pool? I understand the frequent LONGPOLL's cause a problem with BFL's 5 second calculation. (By successful, I don't just mean that it works, I mean it works efficiently and you are making the normal amount of coin as expected). If so, can you share your settings for CGMiner?
As SgtSpike mentioned, the issue cannot be fixed with cgminer settings (or any mining software settings) ... BFL must create/release new firmware (which they have not yet done) for the Singles to be able to work 'successfully' with p2pool.

Until that happens, you must choose a different pool. Or choose different mining hardware.
Yeah I've explained it a few times already (elsewhere?) but I'll do it again Smiley

The BFL does not report shares until it finishes processing the full nonce range.
So about 5.2 seconds (assuming 830MH/s) after it starts on work it replies with the answer(s).
If during that 5.2 seconds you get an LP then anything it did during that 5.2 seconds is wasted.

What that means is that on average for every LP your BFL will have wasted 2.6 seconds processing.
The miner code should/will then of course abort the work so that it doesn't continue to finish the remainder of the 5.2 seconds, but the work done up to the abort is wasted since you cannot ask it if it found a share (and it didn't tell you even though it would have been a valid share if it had already found it)

Since LP's occur on expected average of every 10 seconds ... and on expected average you waste 2.6 seconds processing ... that's 26% of your processing is thrown away (and you can't avoid it)

Does this mean that you would expect with a BFL FPGA to generate 26% fewer shares at a given hash rate than a GPU?

So for GPUmax we now need to use cgminer 2.3.5 per pirate:

I haven't tried an upgrade of cgminer in BAMT.  How do I go about that?

Miners using bamt and a 6990 at voltage 0.9 memory clock 150Mhz: please report in, I need help!

What particular card do you have, did you modify the bios, I can has a copy of your bios, plz ?
Did you accomplish these settings without editing the bios, how ?

..Ive edited the bios in mine 6 times now, and havent gotten anything that would even start mining out of it, I have prior experienc if doing this with a 6950 (the shadermod) so Im starting get desperate ase the card heats up like a m*********er and eats up all the electricity it can get.


I have a lot of 6990's that I run at 880/150, but i don't tweak the voltages.  Seems to work ok with bamt.  does it work from other mining tools like phoenix?

BITBOND has now exceeded 10000 BTC is trading volume. The first GLBSE asset to do so.

Does this mean I'll get a cake from Nefario?  Grin

We have had some seriously great and seriously painful blocks on this pool.  If only there was a way to screen out these big blocks. :p

Purchased 36 tickets! 5% chance of winning Smiley

The odds are pretty good.

Consider the $150 prize for Mega Millions.  The odds are 1/13,781.  The odds in this raffle are hugely better for a prize that's worth 8x as much!  Wink

I wish we could capture the person's face when they learn he/she won! 

It'll be something like Grin only a lot bigger

55 hours remain until the raffle is officially over!!

If you haven't bought your tickets yet, better get a move on. This is THE BIGGEST POT ever for a bitcoin raffle.

I really like it but it isn't the biggest pot ever for a bitcoin raffle, last month's BitLotto was 280 BTC & the current one is going to be more than that - check my sig

Is BitLotto really a raffle?

Also, if you have a GPUmax account (and public shares are working soon), the mining contact could be worth 320+ btc. Wink

Just over two days left.  Getting exciting!

Someone on Friday is going to be one VERY happy person!   Grin
