Apologize if this has already been covered. Is there an optimal work difficulty on Elgius?

Thanks in advance.

They could have released the code, let the community get involved and we would probably have fixed all the problems, pimped out the knc cgminer driver and then KNC would have one less problem to worry about. But they didn't. I think they are worried someone might discover that they are building asic bitcoin miners... shhhh!

I'm a broken record on this but I think if they just left the boards with 8 VRMs and open up the code they would of been champions.   Once they took them off they have been in 'oh shit' mode and now anyone tampering with the code could really fry these boards up much easier  (their own firmware was)

once they get a handle on everything they will release it but they quickly went the money savings route and treat us like we shouldn't ask questions

This post suggests the KNC version is not doing a proper work restart. Any reason KNC are spending 9 days releasing firmware updates that doesn't even fix these issues? I'm fairly sure the guys who wrote cgminer could sort this quick fast.

So I guess it could now read:

Any reason KNC are spending 17 days releasing firmware updates that doesn't even fix these issues?

Pride's a bitch, aint't it? They should swallow that damned pride,  hook up ckolvias, and let him sort it properly.

Saw that but thought I'd read otherwise -- thanks for the tactful response.

Bitminter has minimum diff implemented.

use stratum.  diff. will adjust to the appropriate setting automatically by the pool.

So, in short. What is the consensus for Firmware for a 1st day Saturn (currently at around 260 gh/s w 0.96)

If you don't mind... what's the rate at the pool?

[Tigggger]

Luke Jr will probably have something running before that happens but without the code released nothing is going to get created

From IRC: [20:14] <Luke-Jr> fwiw, I have KnC cgminer source

above 280, but there hasn't been enough time since upgrade and reboot to tell you in a meaningful way... i'd have to give it a day I think

I've posted about the restart/flushwork thing since... 9th October? Asking for it to be addressed.

How about some answers to these questions:
1. How come the sub-standard cgminer from KNC?
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=18313.msg3294238#msg3294238
This post suggests the KNC version is not doing a proper work restart. Any reason KNC are spending 9 days releasing firmware updates that doesn't even fix these issues? I'm fairly sure the guys who wrote cgminer could sort this quick fast.

So I guess it could now read:

Any reason KNC are spending 17 days releasing firmware updates that doesn't even fix these issues?

Pride's a bitch, aint't it? They should swallow that damned pride,  hook up ckolvias, and let him sort it properly.

Luke Jr will probably have something running before that happens but without the code released nothing is going to get created

I pinged it to both Luke, and CKO a couple of days back.

36X Day 2 here just changed status to "Shipped" its a pickup so I guess they have to now ship it to their office where it can be picked up from as I imagine they don't want ppl having around the factory.

just a note my 304x unit just got the tracking number like 2hrs ago it is showing DHL tomorrow (Friday) i'd call if DHL and set things up at least they can give you the DAY it arrives from this number 1-800-225-5345 er again the tracking number shows Brussels calling the number and a live person told me it would arrive tomorrow ..(I was shocked) just so you are warned!

anyway the point of this is it took 2 1/2 days to go from Sweden to the Midwest usa...so jump on the DHL tracking when you get the number imho

Searing

My Mercury is, according to DHL, in Brussels since 1:44AM, processed in Brussels at 11:15AM.  Calling I found I can expect delivery tomorrow by end of the business day.

DHL instead of UPS, not sure if that's good or bad. Is your Mercury going to the USA? I can't imagine mine getting to me tomorrow from Brussels...

My tracking screen is exactly the same. Same dates and times.

This is what the guy said at DHL when I gave him my Brussels tracking number (1-800-225-5345) ...maybe it is scanned in Brussels goes on a plane and is not scanned again till it hits the truck to ship it to me ..no idea..but he said between 10am and 8pm tomorrow Friday 10/17/2013 (maybe Brussels is code for "teleport'

Searing

Just to be sure I check my post office twice today as mine is being shipped to a PO Box.  Just before closing I asked at the counter and found DHL doesn't have a contract with USPS anymore and won't deliver to PO Boxes.  Must find what office it will be going to.

Anyway, I thought DHL was posting time relative to me but no, it's in UTC so apparently the Mercury just left Brussels a little while ago.  It had been at Brussels 23 hours 55 minutes.

so it's not wrong supposing that also ckolivas has the knc cgminer driver code ?

Yes that was what I meant. I collared one of the software engineers the other side of last weekend and sent it to CKOlivas Mon. Luke was meant to have it Mon, but app he has a filter for attachments, and the new email addy I have has an overly sensitive spam filter which filtered his replies about resending it, until he contacted me here.

I promised to get it sent after I met him in Atlanta.
