you forgot -L on survey form. I think it is necessary.

-L just has to be large enough to avoid an out of memory error when allocating the scrypt scratchpad...

Someone needs to chart the maxcoin difficulty over time. This should be a rollercoaster.

Christian

by necessary i meant exactly this necessary for a succesful run.

Yep. For everyone who still wants to solo mine. It is like solo mine BTC now

where can I read about -L and the other options ?

where can I read about -L and the other options ?

4 posts earlier (but you are right, it's better to never look back)

[bathrobehero]

where can I read about -L and the other options ?

In the README.

Tried to sell 96MAX for 0.01BTC each overnight, didn't happen and now they're 0.005BTC each, if this doesn't go through, well that really hurts
Still trying solomine...

[AizenSou]

I just discover one truth. No one DDoSed the pool. It is us who bring all the big pool down. Look at the hashrates now

Missed that... thanks !

hello

sorry to ask you great and wonderful people but...

but I keep getting this message

stratum_subscribe timed out  retry after 15 seconds

can any one tell me what that means

also I have a gt 750m 4gb card in one of my lappys and also a lappy that has a gtx 670m 3gb card

I am trying to use this in a .bat file

cudaminer --algo=keccak -i 0 -m 1 -l K1024x32 -o stratum+tcp://maxpool.1gh.com:17333 -u mN6u1virhEFt33jEGRi1U7TVN8mvyhUtTi -p 123

but what do I do please

also if I can ask how long does it take for coins to show up for you all, I have been trying to mine for a bout an hour and got some yays, but them I was message about with the .bat file (yes I am a very stupid person) and thought I had put it back to the way it should be on my lappy that has the gt 750m 4gb card on it

can anyone please advise please

[LCKChris420]

Hello i am using the cudaminer on windows 7 x86 and it isn't working on any of the pools i try. Am i using the wrong settings or something?
cudaminer.exe -a keccak -r 1 -t 1 -s 1 -l L8x8 -o stratum+tcp://private -u private -p private

I have an nvidia gtx 260 and i have updated my drivers.

It will run for hours and do nothing on the pools!
cgminer is working for me @ 15 Mh/s but i want cudaminer since its proly faster (when it works!)

http://i57.tinypic.com/33x7bja.png
Also the hash rate is slow as hell
could someone please help me out
 

[djm34]

We need a google spreadsheet for Keccak !

Did someone said spreadsheet?  

cudaMiner Keccak (SHA-3) hashrates Survey

cudaMiner Keccak (SHA-3) hashrates Spreadsheet

Have at it! A couple of ATI/AMD entries for comparison would be nice I think.

you forgot -L on survey form. I think it is necessary.

Should have done that before filling the survey...

There is a slight improvement, when a multiple (or a divider) of the number of cuda core is used (and or SMX)
So with Gtx780ti  with K1024x32 ==> 218Mhash (gpu usage 90%); now using K720x32 ==>225Mhash (gpu usage 93%, so there is still room for improvement)

With the Gtx660oem K1024x32 ==> 93Mh ; now using K960x32 ==> 95Mh/s (well not much difference... but still)

[MickeyT2008]

If it's any interest this line seems to work well with a GTX580, I'm getting about 95MH/s

cudaminer.exe --algo=keccak -o [pool url] -u [user name.miner name] -p [password] -C 2 -l F1536x16 -L 256 -i 0

Also, if anyone's using the arOPENCLMAX miner with an AMD card for Ypool then it benefits from having the part of the batch file which names the device to be used mentioned more that once, like this:

arOPENCLMAX -o http://ypool.net:8080 -u [User name.miner name] -p [password] -d 0 -d 0 -d 0 -d 0 -d 0 -d 0 -d 0 -d 0 -d 0 -d 0 -d 0 -d 0 -d 0 -d 0 -d 0 -d 0 -d 0 -d 0 -d 0 -d 0

That raised the mining on my HD5870 from 6MH/s to 120MH/s by running multiple threads.  There might be a neater way to do it but that did the trick for me.  Also, if you're CPU mining on all cores then that'll slow the GPU mining down

Here is the miner mod i made i mentioned earlier..

i want to work on porting a lot more of my code into chubners1 newer build before i think about making a new forum topic.
So in the mean time if anyone wants it here ya go.. and un-check use downloader on the file hosting page guys ..should be obvious but sadly it's not

Windows x64 build only with needed dll's
http://www.datafilehost.com/d/b89037fc

Source code only and Visual Studio project files
http://www.datafilehost.com/d/44b4bd48

So far all i did was take a few minutes to copy the Color code from my other cudaminer mod project and integrated the maxcoin pool fix.
Lots more of my code changes could be ported over also, but i have a lot of stuff to do and the color is enough for now i think..

edit:
I forgot i changed the SHA3 hash algo a bit too
it made it a bit quicker i think.. see src code

edit2:
Forgot to say Green is normal and blue means that is your fastest submitted hash so far..

There is a command line for changing color modes too.. ON / OFF ? DULL or Bright mode (default)
use -w or --color
such as,
--color bright
--color none
--color normal
Note: if you don't have that command line in your bat it will default to bright mode like in the preview pic below.

It's a quick port so sorry if i missed something and fuck off with the donation crap please
and i added the source code GPL whiners so stfu lol
I don't want to listen to babies bicker over who gets donation money for a mod of a mod of a mod of a mod of a mod of a mod

ENJOY

Here is a preview of what it looks like..

[ManIkWeet]

Here is the miner mod i made i mentioned earlier..

So you added colors, and deleted every reference to previous developers?
I doubt people will be happy with that...

[Spoetnik]

too fuckin' bad lol

read the read me .txt files etc with credits included..
there is no obligation to say fuck all in the console gui.

use it or don't but quite whining

you pricks here are legendary at being ungrateful.. i am use to it by now though ..which is why i told ya all to stfu ahead of time LOL
You dicks will start shit over anything lololol

very cool would be a little google spreadsheet that estimates the time to find a block per ghash/s solo mining. unfortunately i'm lacking the expertise, you think you could do something like this?

[Tamis]

don't remember who asked for some cgminer perf...

Just made a quick jump at my office where I have an hd5850, launched cgminer oced a bit and got 170mh/s, a lot better than my GTX670 that maxes at 119mh/s.

Happy mining people

cudaminer.exe -a keccak -r 1 -t 1 -s 1 -l L8x8 -o stratum+tcp://private -u private -p private

<snip>

could someone please help me out
 

Try something like this (I'm just guessing here, I haven't got a GTX260 to mess about with)

cudaminer.exe --algo=keccak -o [pool url] -u [user name.miner name]  -p [password] -C 2 -l T[multiple of 192 as high as possible without running out of memory]x[multiple of 4 as high as possible without miner crashing] -L [64?] -i 0

such as:
cudaminer.exe --algo=keccak -o [pool url] -u [user name.miner name]  -p [password] -C 2 -l T768x8 L64 -i 0

or:
cudaminer.exe --algo=keccak -o [pool url] -u [user name.miner name]  -p [password] -C 2 -l T384x12 L128 -i 0

Just try messing about with those numbers along those lines until you find the highest that work without causing errors or making the hashrate drop

What settings are you using?  My HD5870 is only doing 120MH/s, but that's with a different miner
