OLD: BFGMiner 3.10.0: modular ASIC+FPGA, GBT+Strtm, RPC, Mac/Lnx/W64, AntU1, DRB

[juhakall]

^^ perfect, thanks.. will go fix all my scripts.. Might want to update miner.php while you're at it to work with the API changes.

It already does. There is a $per_proc setting which controls how the data is displayed.

Hello..

Using bfgminer and a jalapeno..

When I press  M to manage devices, I can then use up/down to select processor, but a couple times I did something to show all of them at once???  Anyone know how I did that or what is the command???

Thanks!

Request for ppcoin solo mining support.

I tried to solo mining with bfgminer, however, it returned with a error message:

Code:

 ./bfgminer: --coinbase-addr: Invalid address

which seems that bfgminer only supports bitcoin address and doesn't support ppcoin address.

I'm trying to run ASICMINER Block Erupter Blades with BFGminer.
I'm running xubuntu and I installed the libmicrohttpd as was required.
However when I type:
./bfgminer --http-port 8330

I get this error:

./bfgminer: --http-port: unrecognized option

What am I doing wrong?

Also what should I put on the Blade for address and password?

Thanks.

./bfgminer: --http-port: unrecognized option

This means libmicrohttpd wasn't found when you ran configure.

Luke-Jr, have you any idea if/when you'll be adding the stratum proxy module to the OpenWRT version of BFGMiner?

IIRC, it should be there in 3.3.0?

OK, cool.  I didn't see anything specific in the READMEs about it being added, so assumed it was still not on OpenWRT, like it's still not on Win64 version.

I'll give it a spin sometime on OpenWRT...

The stratum proxy is fully supported on all platforms, including Win64.
It's only the getwork proxy that can't do Win64.

There's a difference? 

Surely:
stratum proxy is for allowing getwork clients to mine on a stratum pool? 
getwork proxy is for allowing getwork clients to mine on a stratum pool?

Confused.

Stratum proxy is for allowing stratum clients to mine on stratum pool(s).
getwork proxy is for allowing getwork clients to mine on any pool(s).

[HellDiverUK]

Oh, OK, so you're changing the terms, because classically a stratum proxy (like slush's one) allows a getwork client to mine on a stratum pool. 
 
That's cool, as long as I know what you're calling what.


So, back to the question - is the getwork proxy available on OpenWRT?

[Luke-Jr]

Slush's Stratum proxy refers only to the upstream protocol.
It supports both getwork and Stratum clients.

So, back to the question - is the getwork proxy available on OpenWRT?

Should be.

BFL LS:
what goes wrong, what does this mean?

Code:

BFL 1a: Ran out of buffer space for results, discarding extra data

often after a time BFL LS get sick, stops and no restart; - only with unconnecting power and restart Bfgminer...

Trying this again since I never got a response...

I'm running bfgminer on a Pi.
Thanks to the help of DrGuns4Hands, it can boot up and run unassisted.
However, when the pool was experiencing the recent DDoS attacks,
I heard the fan slow down for a long period but couldn't see the fault messages that would have been displayed if I had opened a terminal and started bfgminer manually.
So, how do I automatically start it with the output displayed or,
even better, how do I see the output messages using SSH?

I know this is really simple for you guys.  A little help, please.

hang in there bud. im still working out some bugs in a setup for ya. sorry its taken so long

Not a problem.  It's not keeping me from mining.
I appreciate the help you've already been.
I've tried messing with a few things with screen, bfgminerstart.sh and rc.local but haven't found what I should be doing.
I thought what I wanted would be easy for a linux person.

Ah dude, every time I go out my miner stops working. It's a bfl 60gh. Usually it says something like this

Bugs don't get fixed unless they're reported
Can you run BFGMiner in valgrind? It'll use a lot more CPU time, but it will also give a lot more info.

Code:

valgrind --leak-check=full --track-origins=yes bfgminer YOUR OPTIONS --debuglog 2>valgrind.log

Thank you, I will do when I return. Hope my 1gig of ram pc from year 2000 can handle it.

Hi Luke,
I think that the KnCMiner is in your plans.
Do you have an estimation when you release the KncMiner version?
Thank you very much for your contribution to Cryptocoin Mining!!!

Thank you very much for your contribution to Cryptocoin Mining!!!

The next major version will support KnC units.
You can see the (working) code-in-progress in the git "knc" branch.

anyone know whats wrong?
