So I am running into an issue after updating my raspberry Pi to the latest version of Raspbian Stretch. When I attempt to use Novak's instructions, the "make" command ends with this. lib/libgnu.a: error adding symbols: Archive has no index; run ranlib to add one
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
Makefile:787: recipe for target 'cgminer' failed
make[2]: *** [cgminer] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory '/home/user/cgminer-gekko-rev2'
Makefile:1486: recipe for target 'all-recursive' failed
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/user/cgminer-gekko-rev2'
Makefile:691: recipe for target 'all' failed
make: *** [all] Error 2
Any ideas what could be going wrong? I was able to get each of the other commands to work correctly. Any help would be appreciate. |

Thanks for the info, I will see of cranking back the clock speed will help.

I am running a Superbpag hub for the CompacsSB current issue from the Motherboard as well?

I had been mining away with 4 Compacs for about 9 months and every 3-4 days one of them would Zombie out and I would have to unplug it and replug it in, restart cgminer, and then all was well again. Recently I upgraded that computer with a new motherboard, CPU, and RAM (same Windows install) and now I cannot got 6 hours without one or sometimes all of the Compacs going Zombie. Would you all suggest reinstalling a driver or something else to resolve the issue? Thanks.

If this is not the correct place to ask this question, please let me know.
First off, big thanks to Genoil on this work; I am using the latest version with great success and better hashing than before. Thanks again!
The issue I am having is related to what I believe to be ULPS. I have a 280x and a 270x in a machine and the 280x runs fine; however, the 270x is only running at a core clock of 150 Mhz and a memory clock of the same. I have disabled ULPS in the registry and Afterburner. When I reboot and attempt to run ethminer the system bluescreens (I cannot see this occur, but on reboot it says it in the dialog box from Windows). Then I attempt to use ethminer and it works fine, but again at 150 MHz for the 270x. Also, if it matters, I cannot see the BIOS any longer when the system boots (since I added the 270x). Also, the 270x is using a USB powered riser a 750w power supply, and a fresh install of the ATI drivers and Windows.
What am I doing wrong here and what could I do to attempt to fix it? Power Limit is set to Max, PCIe link state power management is disabled, enablecrossfireautolink is set to 0, and EnableULPS is disabled in the registry. Any ideas? Thanks for the help.
EDIT: So I solved my own issue. First, I disconnected the second card to boot into the BIOS and set the primary display to PCIe. This solved the problem of not being able to see the boot screen. Then, I booted into Safemode and ran Display Driver Uninstaller from guru3d.com. Rebooted a few times and then reinstalled the latest AMD drivers. After rebooting then I reinstalled MSI Afterburner, disabled UPLS, rebooted, and it just worked. I ran ethminer and now I am happyly hashing away at the correct clock speeds. Maybe some of this will help out others, but the bottom line, uninstall the drivers THEN install your new card(s) to start mining.

0.9.23
I'll do some testing against the pools you are mentioning. Meanwhile, I suggest you just stick to 0.9.23 if it gives you better results  I noticed the longer startup times as well. Not sure where that's coming from, yet. Thanks for the help; let me know if you need any more information. Sorry, I just noticed that it was 0.9.40. Checked the running version on a different PC and thought they were the same. The .40 release is the one with the 280x that is giving me the trouble. |

From which version did you upgrade?

I just upgraded to 1.0.6 and for the life of me I cannot get nanopool or suprnova to show my worker hashing. Using Win 7, R9 280x, and the following config: ethminer --farm-recheck 300 -G -F http://eth-us.suprnova.cc:3000/user.worker1/50 --cl-global-work 16384 --cl-local-work 128 My GPU usage shows as 100% but in the output, after it shows "workloop 1" it always shows 0 H/s for the first .5 /s but then begins to ramp up. It never did this before. Any ideas what is going on? |

Is it normal for a program requiring processor time to slow down operation when a different program has the processor pegged? That sounds about right.
Cgminer is only running about .2% CPU utilization on average one core. When fully maxed out not only do I see degradation in hashing but also increase in Zombies and cgminer going not responding. I understand there could be an impact but I did not expect to see so much. I was just asking if others were seeing the same. |

I was running the CPU on my system at 100% and noticed that my 4 sticks dropped their hash rate significantly. Going from an Average of 75 GH/s down to 50. When I stop the task, the hashing goes right back up again. Is this normal behavior inside of windows with cgminer?

I received my 10 sticks (in addition to the two I already had) and got them setup on Minera using the cgminer-gekko custom version. I've been slowly increasing the clockrate/voltage but seem to be maxed out at 275 MHz with the voltage set at 700mV (drops to about 685mV when they are running). Even cranking the voltage up to 800mV I cannot get the hashrate higher than 275MHz without significant HW errors or complete stick failure (according to cg-miner). When I was only running two stick I had no issues running 433MHz at 800mV on the pot. I'm no hardware guy and I don't know crap about electricity, but my current setup includes 3 sets of 4 sticks, each set of four sticks are on a 12V / 3A powered USB 3.0 hub. They are all connected to my Sony VAIO laptop running ubuntu and Minera (that's all it does). I'm thinking at 12V / 3A I should have about 9watts available to each of the 4 sticks, which should be plenty, but I have no idea if that's correct or not. I can't seem to figure out how to calculate a basic formula for the consumption based on hashrate, or the other way to calculate maximum hashrate based on supply power. COoling is not an issue I have two 80mm fans on each set of four hashers and they are warm but not hot and have been running for days. Also, I seem to have issues with COMPC 9, as you can see in the Screenshot link below. I get lots of HW errors. This stick is setup identically to the other 11 sticks but it is the only one that gives trouble, even when I switch it around to different ports/hubs it's always the troublemaker. I also haven't considered limitations of cgminer (if any) in regards to running so many sticks on one instance of the program. Any help / pointers / suggestions would be greatly appreciated as I am new to all this and eager to learn.  YMMV but my four sticks, each running at 750mV @ 350 MHz consume about 41 Watts at the wall on my Superbpag hub. As most have said here, I think it is the hub. If you have a Kill-A-Watt meter you can see how much the whole hub is pulling and that may give you some additional insight. Also, my Superbpag 7 port says it is capable of 60 W but at 40 it starts to get very warm. I have a fan on it now and its elevated to get more airflow and I have seen a significant drop in Zombie sticks and HW error rate. May be coincidental, but temperature of the hub could play a role. I am new to all of this too, but hopefully this may help. |

107 M running 4 sticks at 350 MHz. Previous best was 310M-ish. When does "best ever" reset on the pool URL?

what are you guys running your sticks on? laptop raspberry etc??
Running mine off my media server. It is on all the time and I can use it's other usb ports for the fans. |
