How to solve it?

[djm34]

I solved the problem with the crash and lost of power while running on fugue256.
It was related to the use of shared memory that you have introduced.
I modified the code so that it runs without it and recompiled and now it runs flawlessly as before.
Now I don't understand why nobody else had the problem.

The feature which is supposed to make the card working at 100% doesn't seem to work.
(In anycase, it would have very little chance on my card, since the boost is disabled in the bios).
But running to instance of ccminer seems to work well.

Flawlessly as in same hashrate?

I was rather thinking in terms of stability, but I also have the same hashrate (the hasrate was not an issue except when the power drops to 37%...). It has worked all night without any problem.

replace in cpuminer-config.h
#define HAVE_ALLOCA_H 1 by #undef HAVE_ALLOCA
(you should get then a second error message related to syslog, and you will have to do the same for SYSLOG)

oops! take cpuminer-config.h from previous version. I checked in the Linux generated one by accident.

[jack80]

I just had a doubt I'm undermining maxcoin on max.1gh.com

I have 2 PC all 2 make me 330 mh / s (ie a total of 660 mh / s)

The first PC in. Bat has configured address of my wallet, and so identical according to my other pc has always address of the wallet to which the first tip.

Now in the statistics of the pool instead of giving me TOTAL mh / mh 660 s / s (which is the sum of 2 pcs), it gives me a maximum of 400 mh / s (sometimes down to 370 mh / s).

I was wrong to write. Bat same identically for all 2 pc, ie, with the same address wallet and that's it? .

The hashrate of 1gh is not very accurate

Strange thing i noticed when minig fuguie on my 6x750ti rig , only one card shows that it uses 260mb of its memory , others are not using any memory. Why is that?

Is one of the cards doing the display?

Yes i didn`t guess of that , thanks.

No worries

How many fc day with 400 mh/s ?

roughly about 576.00 FC  or about 0.0132 BTC is todays xchange rate

I don't think so. With this current difficulty, my 10Ghs only earn roughly 6000FC / day. So yours is much lower.

[ivanlabrie]

Yeah, I got 133 in a day (less than a day really, since Christian posted the binaries till now with a 6 hour period of no activity in between).
More like 4 hours?

We need an exchange, we can't dump at nxt-e lol

Is it real 10Ghash/s or as shown by dwarfpool ?

Only 133 fc a day

https://www.nxt-e.com/default.aspx?m=fc_btc

133 fc is 0,00405783 BTC = 2,23789324 USD ( BTC a 551$ )

Not profitable .

Sorry dwarfpool gives me the wrong illusion . The dev has repaired this and it shows correct now. 3.5Ghs only  It will take me 1 month to get the same holder like Christian

What's the launch configuration for vertcoin again on a 780?

And what pool seems to run best? I'm going to switch over to it tonight

Same as GPUC
I would suggest p2pool. (most of the vertcoin pool I knew have closed...)
You won't get any payout for a while (the time needed to find a first share), but after that you should get a pretty regular payout.
But don't expect much, it is of the order of 1~2VTC a day...
