Oct 11 to Nov 11 Sidehack stick pool club.

I don't know if there's a cgminer-gekko directory, I can't find it if there is.

I am using the cgminer-gekko Minera image but I never got it to see my compacs.  For the month i've just been running cgminer in a terminal window. I may re-image my SD card to plain raspbian and install cgminer-gekko that way. Clearly i've been running on luck this entire time!

That's weird that cgminer-gekko could not find your compacs. I built that image and it has worked for me and many others.

If you want to try to call cgminer directly (although I'm not sure that it's going to help), it's located here:

/var/www/minera/minera-bin/custom/gminer-gekko

You should not need to run it as root. By default it runs as the "minera" user without a problem.

Before you tried running this manually, did you enable logging in the Minera GUI and take a look at the resulting log? Maybe it would provide some hints as to why it can't see the hardware.

Also, you're using a USB2 powered hub, right? You can't drive sticks directly from a RPi.

Just following up on the thread now... Do you want me to write some script for this? Would take maybe a day... I would just re-use the pool functionality from my app

Yeah it would be nice.

I am getting tired of clicking on thirty names and pasting shares once a day.
Takes a lot of time.

[Meech]

Sweet! CryptoGlance has a good lookin gui.  Can't wait.
Note: My S2 is offline for now for donation.

Cryptoglance, I've been maintaining a text list of the club participants here on dropbox (note that this URL will redirect):

https://www.dropbox.com/s/i0d6d971udf8oej/workers.txt?raw=1

It's a simple parseable text format. Comments are preceded by a "#" character. Addresses can take the form of a raw address, or a complete URL to the stats on the solo pool. The participants are organized by workers or donators via simple comments.

I've got a Python script that periodically reads the list from the URL to send notification emails. TheRealSteve has also been using the list to automate his IRC bot.

What we're missing is a nice web site that consumes the list and provides visible stats to the other members.

Maybe the way this could evolve is a single text list like this could drive any number of applications, including stats on a web site. I've been updating the list when I see changes posted here. But perhaps a better approach would be to give Phil write access to the text file.

That way Phil could update the list, and all the other applications could automatically update from that list.

Does this sound like a reasonable way forward for everyone?

Yes that is excellent, it could be read from any online text file. A service like google doc would work. The list would be public but it could be easily decided who tend to it. As long as the script or program/web server get the data from plain text, this would be simple and work very well to feed the database.

Simple error handling to ignore invalid output and this should be perfect.

That is awsome news!  Thank you crytoglance.  I have used your product  before it was a very nice product.

Watching the club through it would  be great!

Also, you're using a USB2 powered hub, right? You can't drive sticks directly from a RPi.

I did log into the minera GUI and it looked like it would see one compac stick and the log would just stop, it was only eight or nine lines. I do have a powered hub yes, got 4 sticks and an arctic fan running.

yeah i read around and it seemed like everyone else was doing fine. I ended up just re-flashing the drive with raspbian and re-installing cgminer-gekko. I'm up and running now! Thanks for the help.
I'm trying it out at freq 200 as well,  just a smidge more hash for the club.

I owe Phil for learning about these if you want to have some fun on freq order some y cables - http://www.ebay.com/itm/221661361513?_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

Those there work great and are really cheap price.  Con is takes a while to get to US.  But they make it really fun to play with freq.

running debian jessie in virtualbox 4.3.12 in a freenas 9.3 jail on my server in the basement.

I can compile and run cgminer-gekko. the compac is seen fine in debian. cgminer fires up and sees the clubs solo pool and connects. I get the welcome and block found messages. but it wont mine. the errors are as follows:

Code:

no valid hashes for over 10 secs, attempting to restart.
compac 1 attempted reset got error:(0) LIBUSB_SUCCESS
device failed to respond to restart
HOTPLUG: Gekko adding compac 2

it does this over and over with the compac n number increasing each time.

any suggestions?  this compac runs fine on my windows HTPC.

EDIT: the compacs led stays steady green. no frequency arguments so it should run stock speed. this stick runs at 185Mhz on the HTPC so it should run fine stock frequency..

[philipma1957]

@ edonkey aarons6stick belongs on list

I am on a tablet right now. I will check the list to be sure the rest is good.

That is really cool of you, thanks!

For anyone who doesn't use cryptoglance software, check it out.  Shameless plug, but I've been using it for months.  Great functionality and looks really sharp, plus the phone app to check in remotely is super handy.  Install it and send them a donation to say thanks.

[vapourminer]

another good way to monitor your kit is with cgminers api. use kanos miner.php (its in a stock cgminer archive) on a home web server it will give you more info than you can shake a stick at. it has a mobile format as well as regular and anything in the house with a browser can check it.

I dont expose my web server to the internet, just the home network, but you could do it if you think your network etc is secure enough.

another good way to monitor your kit is with cgminers api. use kanos miner.php (its in a stock cgminer archive) on a home web server it will give you more info than you can shake a stick at. it has a mobile format as well as regular and anything in the house with a browser can check it.

I dont expose my web server to the internet, just the home network, but you could do it if you think your network etc is secure enough.

This is mainly what my app does, except most data isn't really needed at all times so we present only what I felt was important. Can always be changed of course.

The master user addy is this.

Thanks! I'll work on a simple interface that tracks these users. Will post back soon with something......

nice  thanks much.  this idea can grow to other clubs .  and can expand with sidehack products as sidehack develops more powerful gear.
