DiabloMiner GPU Miner

[Diapolo]

My statement is true for current SDK and driver versions and that's what I meant. Sorry if I was a bit unclear .

The whitelist is "nice to have", but it can be hard to maintain such a thing and keep it up to date ... I saw that "Loveland" for example is missing. That's the GPU part of the AMD C-50 and I'm 99% sure it works with BFI_INT patching.

Diablominer doesn't work here on a freshly installed 7970. I have the newest driver that supports 7970: http://support.amd.com/us/kbarticles/Pages/RC11Driver.aspx

I installed the AMD APP SDK that came with that.

So the miner starts normally, albeit with some Java error (installed newest Java just in case), then waits for a while, and after that just shows 0 MHash with the card not doing anything. I think my install should be fine, as cgminer "worked", although it gave me like 130MH/s

get rid of the "http://" at the beginning of your URL.  You aren't connected to a pool.

Your command line is screwed up. Although, it shouldn't exception like that either. If you're using -o, you want -o api.bitcoin.cz

The CPU core half of that Fusion may identify itself as Loveland, but the GPU half, the Radeon 6250, identifies itself as a Wrestler.

Edit: I don't see any of the APUs named Loveland either, there is only Desna, Ontario, Zacate, Llano. Trinity, Weatherford, and Richland aren't out yet, and will use Northern Islands-based shaders (77/78/79xx) instead of Evergreen (5xxx). There is also three that were canceled, Krishna, Wichita, and Hondo.

Although, it seems I need to add two more names, Palm and Sumo.

Update: Added two models to bfi_int whitelist, fixed up loop code, added optimizations, fixed a few bugs

Oh doh, thanks. Silly me for not noticing that, works fine now 

[DiabloD3]

Update: I think it got faster. Maybe.

Not for a 7970. :p

I don't think 7970s are going to GET faster. Its like, SDK 2.6 screws everybody over, and thats the way it rolls.

WHY MUST AMD MAKE ME ANGRY, THEY WONT LIKE ME WHEN IM ANGRY, DIABLOSMASH

what flags should I use for a dedicated miner? I just switched to Diablo Miner from CGminer

[djinfected]

Upgraded to newest binary (haven't upgraded in months) and here's what I get now.

Code:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Bitcoin\DiabloMiner>cd "C:\Program Files (x86)\Bitcoin\DiabloMiner"

It used to work just fine and now this.

Interestingly my friend was trying to use the same new binary and he got the old com.diablominer.DiabloMiner.DiabloMiner error. We couldn't fix it at all. But using my old binaries worked for him (but he got about 11Mhash/s versus his old 200Mhash/s on another miner).

EDIT: another config

-f 1, usual flags otherwise.

Its not one of those kinds of bugs. Java on Windows is being retarded. Delete the DiabloMiner dir and unzip it again fresh.  Weird part is, not all Windows users are hitting it, and no one on any other OS is.

What exactly does "hw error" indicate?  If I have 1 hw error per 100 accepted blocks, does that indicate that I might be overclocking a little too much, or is some level of hw error normal?

Some level is normal, depends entirely on the card and the machine.

Do you suppose it's a cache updating error? Or a linking error?

Either way, my old settings are producing less desktop interactivity now (-w 64 and -f 1000) any suggestions? Again I have an Nvidia 9600 GT. 1GB.

Well, its a cache update like error of some sort.... but I'm not aware of Java only on Windows actually having such a cache.

As for desktop interactivity, you're screwed. Nvidia hates you, yet they want your money. Such a conundrum.

It's ok. I knew what I was buying when I bought it. Actually, I went with Nvidia because my house was too cold and I needed something warmer than a space heater or a forest fire.
