Go back to 0.98.1, it's more reliable for many. Most people abandonded 0.99 as a lame duck.
98.1 beta seems to be the best in my book.. I run that on both of my 5 board Neptunes (or whatever we want to call them) the newer cgminers are starting to have better features though, so hopefully we will be able to take those and run them on 98.1 beta (unless there are some new files in .99 that I needs that I am not aware of) The file waas is new, i thing it does nearly the same what the old wasd does, but i have no knowledge, which files handles this in fw 0.99. We have to wait for the tuning suite, I think it will do this what happened with our RMA boards. Reprogramm the eeproms on it.

Capitalising on the fact that I saw that dud cores are better disabled, here's an experimental binary that tunes things fairly aggressively: http://ck.kolivas.org/apps/cgminer/kncminer/cgminerFirst it enables all cores on startup (so it can take a while before it starts mining!) Then it will disable cores after only 3 hw errors in a row, but staggers disabling of cores 5 seconds apart. Then it tries re-enabling cores after only another minute, but staggers re-enabling them. If the cores fail 3 times in a row, they're decommissioned at that point. Seems like API is disabled in this version with the following message: Invalid command cgminer 3.8.2 Was it done on purpose? Can we get it back, please? That's probably a temporary thing 'till the memory leak is isolated Ckilovas is working on. It most likely stops the leak. But I could be wrong..... As I mentioned in the official cgminer thread, the API works just fine, you just have to wait awhile for the new version to boot up due to the enabling of the cores at the beginning. Have a breather and congratulate yourself on making such a wise investment after launching it, and then do the normal 'screen -rd' ... or whatever it is you use.

I'm pretty sure that API is NOT working, I'm running it for 3.8.2 for 2 hours already and even though I can see stats from Knc Miner webpage, I get this response from the cgminer API itself (i'm using 3rd party tool to connect to api): ..."Status":"E","Msg":"Invalid command". This response is an API response. So, it seems that most of the API commands were disabled. Version of cgminer 3.8.1 works just fine.

Thanks guys. That is a little disheartening. Efficiency is really going to be key going forward. Midsize miners will need lots of hashrate with minimal electric use to stay competitive.
no it is meaningless here. I did the math in another thread but if it costs $100 electricity to run 2 jupiters and right now 2 jupiters will get you about ~25 BTC the next 30 days it doesn't matter if that power bill is $50, $100 or $300 compared to 25x$800=$20,000 so perhaps you could save $50 per month the next 6 months with some other lower power cost (vaporware) miner? $300 over 6 months vs $XXX,XXX Just make sure you keep your KNC miners running as close to 24/7 and all chips hashing as much as possible and enjoy the extra heat if it is winter in your area Your math may be right but it disregards that the vast increase in BTC price is also going to bring about large increases in hashrate/difficulty with all the new 'get rich quick' thinking miners. I personally have been asked about setting up BTC mines from 4 different people this week, it is just insane. This is why efficiency gains are important to me because I certainly cannot get much cheaper electric where I live.

I understand but just saying unless the miners become really cheap and only produce small amounts of BTC each month then it isn't a focus point. You will make the lion share by picking the right horse (delivery when they promised) late gen 2 I agree with you, but if you picked the right gen 2 (KNC) you can ride that out and plan for the first gen 3's (if you wish to continue mining) you are at the end of the current cycle if power costs are a major factor in purchasing.

Update Here is that last binary without the experimental tuning for those that requested it: http://ck.kolivas.org/apps/cgminer/kncminer/cgminerI've renamed the experimental one. Here is an updated one with more tweaks to the tuning (does not delay before disabling): http://ck.kolivas.org/apps/cgminer/kncminer/cgminer-tune(Be patient before deciding what its performance is like since it takes many minutes to stabilise) I did nothing to the API that wasn't in the previous binary. The most likely thing if it's not working is either you changed your api allow commands, or there were two cgminer binaries running at once and one was holding onto the port while it was shutting down, not allowing the new binary to bind to the port.

Could someone help me out here. I am running .99 firmware and if i shut the miner down and bring it back up it will run about 140GH/s for a few hours then go down to 100gh/s It is a mercury but i am wondering why this is happening.

those are heavy on the amps so make sure you have enough and nothing else on that line (since you are in UK, I have no clue on your situation) check the full product specs on the PSU's main site

Appreciate it. Good to have the option tuned vs untuned. My Saturns are running tip-top now @ 280.1 and 285.0 --- .98.1(beta) + enablecores + cgminer 3.8.2 regular.

Haha they were wondering if someone would see the news report and mention it here. That was Andreas speaking, no idea what was being said, or the relevance with setting a young lad's trousers on fire at the end of it was. He's since quit the random acts of arson...

Channel topic from #kncminer on FreeNode IRC, set by hno, a KnC emlpoyee: "November shipment in full production" Well the PCBs have been 'in production' since the week before last, but Marcus is driving down to the facility at 3am to oversee the assembly line, so that's more the 'in production' you want to hear of. hno can be seen making a brief appearance in the vid above, he's crazy intelligent btw, I'm not just saying that as a passing compliment...

Tuning Suite any time soon? Now with the team busy on the next production run any chance of us seeing it in the next few weeks? 'Orama please sir? What is the potential of the suite? Got the gear in the garage now that its cold out, would love to start overclocking it while the weather is favorable.
