ethminer-0.9.41-genoil-1.1

[scryptr]

new miner really does not improve the hashing. I am not programmer so, as a point of view of a miner, previous versions are not slower or faster.

NEW FEATURES--

The new miner allows the user to set a custom, easy-to-find directory for the DAG file, and allows for auto-deletion of old, useless DAG files.  All my EthMiner rigs are booted off USB sticks, and the auto delete feature means I won't run out of drive space on the USB stick.

CLONE v1.0.6 FROM GIT--

What command line should I use to clone v1.0.6 from Git for Linux?  I don't want to get the wrong version by mistake.       --scryptr

The master branch is always up to date, unless there's a beta release

Re: faster hashing

If I'd open source a faster kernel, the advantage for miners would only be for the ones that switch over to it quickly. The news would spread fast and after a while all miners would use that kernel, leading to nothing more than higher difficulty. It would be much more beneficial to myself and to a select group of miners if I'd sell a few copies. Not that I have such a kernel

[malekbaba]

If any persoanl kernel is available for sell want to know the price. BTW thanks for your miner

[blastbob]

Sent you 10 ETH for motivation.

Using 1.0.6 with stratum right now, seems to be the most "stable" one for my platforms.

PS put me on the private kernel list

Thanks! Much appreciated! Donators automatically get on that list, although I cant promise the kernel ever comes

[peteycamey]

should we be expecting a performance increase from opencl anytime soon?

Hey Genoil, I get this error with ethminer and I dont know what could fix it

"Creating one big buffer for the DAG Allocating/mapping single buffer failed with: clCreateBuffer(-61). GPU can't allocate the DAG in a single chunk. Bailing. clEnqueueWriteBuffer(-38)"
Full DAG Loaded

I tried deleting the DAG but it created a new dag with the same issue

i`m getting same error since this morning. it worked fine for 2 weeks on windows 10. Trying to install windows 7 and re-run.

Found a solution
in the batch set

Code:

setx GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 0
setx GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 95 
setx GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 95

tried you settings too and they`re not working for me.

try the official ethminer and

setx GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 0
setx GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 95
setx GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 95
ethminer.exe --farm-recheck 333 -G -F ...your pool and account info --cl-local-work 256 --cl-global-work 16384

[coinotron]

You can also try this one. It helped one of our miners.

setx GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 0
setx GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
SET GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 100

ethminer ...blablabla...usual...stuff.... --cl-extragpu-mem 0

[cl4ud1u]

setx GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 0
setx GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 95
setx GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 95

this settings worked.

The stratum part of ethminer.genoil 1.0.6 seems to be a bit unstable.

I have 4 different threads and they stops randomly to report to the pool even if they are actively hashing.

Strange..

i know..it's hard to debug. i hope to find some time to make it more stable.

what do you mean with 4 different threads exactly? 4 GPU mining threads?

Hi can anyone verify if my set is good for eth mining?
Core i7-3770
4 GB RAM
nVidia GTX 650 vc
Windows 7 x64

Because I'm still getting this error:

"Creating one big buffer for the DAG Allocating/mapping single buffer failed with: clCreateBuffer(-4). GPU can't allocate the DAG in a single chunk. Bailing. clEnqueueWriteBuffer(-38)"

Even if I already did these:

setx GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 0
setx GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 95
setx GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 95

I'm new to eth mining and I want to try it on my extra rig.

Thanks.

How much RAM does the GPU have? 1GB is not enough.
You'll want to use my fork and use the -U flag instead of -G to run in CUDA mode. CUDA doesn't need any of the setx settings.

No.
Foer Ether you need at least Maxwell cores (750) or newer
Notice that 760 is Kepler - a 760Ti makes 8.8MH/s atm, but its better to mine other altcoin

I run a dedicated ethminer for each card in certain rigs. These randomly stops reporting to pool via stratum.

Qtminer is the only only that accually works stable for more than 2-3 days for me.
