Can you elaborate what exactly it is your talking about?

My take of it is that he wants to buy My Little Pony videos with BTC. Smiley

if the timeout isn't working, your card is locking up and causing phoenix to completely freeze (process can't even die when the kernel sends the timeout signal.. not good).  too bad about the warranty, definitely a defect if acting that way and you're not setting any overclocking.

Meh. As long as restarting the mine sets it straight I don't mind... I can live with a few shares less every hour instead of having a card idle for hours in a row.

that'll work, but it sounds like you've got a defective card.  if under warranty i would return it.

also, why isn't the automatic dead miner detection taking care of this for you?  it does exactly the same thing as a mine restart, and does it every time you go X seconds without a share... is that not set up, or is it really not working?

No warranty.

What dead miner detection? Are you referring to the pool timeout threshold? That works on all the other cards. Obviously not on this one.

Nope. Still only manage 1-2 shares in here and there. Which due to the score-based payout method is not useful at all.

My miners' connections are very spotty. I manage to get 1 share in here and there, but then fails for minutes in a row. Website is unreachable.

I know some smaller pools that would be happy to have you temporarily until slush comes back up

I know a few of those too. I have my miners setup so that they mine on those smaller pools if my main pools are unavailable, but still keep retrying every so often. Those are the results I'm posting here.

Can't access website and can't mine - not since yesterday afternoon. Both the website and the pool have been completely unreachable for me for the past 14+ hours.

For some reason, one of my 5850 cards drops off and stops mining at random intervals between a couple of hours and a couple of days. It's not due to overclocking since it does it even at stock speeds. Not due to heat, temps are around 53C while mining.

So here's my kludge to get around this and not have to check on the miner all the time:

crontab -e
add line:
Code:
@hourly      /etc/init.d/mine restart
Save. Done.
It restarts the mining process every hour. So far it works like a charm.

That's impressive I thought reference cards were the only ones to reach that high. What temp is it running at?

65 degrees C. The video card has an aftermarket cooler on it (Accelero TwinTurbo Pro)

With stock voltage i can set 965/320, after this i got blue screen. (Amd Gpu Clock Tool)

Anyone got more?

OS: W7 Ultimate 32bits

1030/300 at stock. Visiontek non-reference on Linux. 475GH/s, very stable for 3 weeks now.
12  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: 58XX vs 68xx cards on: August 27, 2011, 06:32:09 AM
the 6xxx series is just a re bandaged 5xxx series. Some new cards ,but for the most part they are just old cards with updates from the 6xxx series.

False. The hardware is different (the 6xxx have had hardware stripped off as compared to the 5xxx).
13  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: How many miners are going to get the new FPGA platforms? on: August 23, 2011, 01:01:37 PM
The fpga miners are a nice idea, but at the current cost the break-even point is over a couple years even with including the electricity savings. The boards do have other interesting potential uses. I hope they do get the price down, but personally don't think I would consider them an option until they get to a price point of 33-25% of what they are now.

I very much doubt an 8-gpu limit exists in the kernel. If you're looking for a culprit, look at fglrx.
15  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: BTC client crashes every 5 minutes. "Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library." on: August 21, 2011, 07:00:34 PM
The official Bitcoin Windows binary isn't built with VC, but it does use the Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime (msvcrt.dll).

What do you know. You're right! I just tested it with InspectExe and indeed msvcrt.dll is in the list of dependencies.
16  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: BTC client crashes every 5 minutes. "Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library." on: August 21, 2011, 05:47:57 PM
Does the crash happen if you don't run guiminer at the same time? I.e. if bitcoin.exe is the only application running?

(edit) a bit of forum search turned out this thread from january http://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2920.0 where someone was seeing an error similar to yours because of a corrupt wallet.dat. I hope you have a wallet backup somewhere. Sad The defrag program may have damaged your wallet.dat
17  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: BTC client crashes every 5 minutes. "Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library." on: August 21, 2011, 05:43:11 PM

You are rigth, I should not trust a strange guy offering me a custom exe.


Good move. I'm actually an honest guy (no you don't have to believe me) but I could easily have inserted a wallet stealer, keylogger or whatnot in that exe. Don't trust anything and anybody except the original author(s). And even then think twice...
18  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Just saw this picture of a computer... on: August 21, 2011, 12:33:16 PM
Or password hash cracking.
19  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: BTC client crashes every 5 minutes. "Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library." on: August 21, 2011, 11:12:47 AM
Well like I said, from having compiled it myself (I'm paranoid like that) I can tell you it doesn't use the VC++ runtime at all. If you get a VC++ runtime error, it's not because of bitcoin.exe.

You may want to post this in https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=6.0 because most of the developers are unlikely to hang around this newbie area, and I see you have posting rights now.

If you want I could send you my self-compiled bitcoin.exe - the same one I use - and see if that makes a difference, that is if you trust me (which you shouldn't, I'm just an unknown guy on a message board offering to send you a custom executable program Smiley).

So, who's pissing farther?  Grin


Currently, I think Vladimir from bitcoin.org.uk - I think he gots a few hundred Ghash/s Smiley

As for me, currently:
1x5870 at 475MHs
1x5850 at 385 MHs
1x6850 at 262MHs
8 CPU cores/16 threads at 26MHs
total about 1150. Yeah, I'm an amateur.
