EDIT: You'll have to do this after every reboot unfortunately, as it will reset to defaults. Just don't reboot it...... Seriously?? Wow. Isn't this easier? /usr/bin/cgminer-api "setconfig|queue,0"
M Dunno, never tried it.....if it works - let me know It works on S2s. Haven't figured out how to get privileged API commands to work on S3s yet. M The S3's are even easier because it will save over a power cycle, unlike the S2/S4/C1. Just change the PARAMS variable in /etc/init.d/cgminer. That is where you add --api-allow and whatever other cgminer params you want. Like so: PARAMS="$AOPTIONS $POOL1 $POOL2 $POOL3 $_pb $_ow $_bec --api-listen --api-allow W:0/0 --bitmain-checkn2diff --bitmain-hwerror --queue 0" Yes, thanks, I figured that out. Now if I could just get the API commands to work. I tried --api-allow W:192.168.0/32 and cgminer wouldn't start. M

The number 1 issue is fixed with latest firmware, which runs cgminer 4.6.1. When the work restart request comes in, I usually see the flush work within 1 second, then the new block task usually arrives in another second. Often there are new accepted shares submitted within 2 seconds of the work restart request. The new cgminer 4.6.1 has brought new life to the S2. I used to point the S2's to a different pool, while all my other miners used P2Pool. It's so nice to see them doing the full 1000 GH/s with P2Pool. I have 2x S2's and 2x C1's, and all 4 of them run neck-and-neck.
Bear in mind if you are pointing an S1/2/3/4 to p2pool with bitmain's default firmware binaries, they throw out stale shares which is potentially disastrous on p2pool because that can throw out a valid block solve. Kano and I have pointed this out to them numerous times but that behaviour is still in their fork.

Could this behavior impact p2pool's luck?

Or some option in /etc/config/cgminer params line --submit-stales or similiar?? Any info where to get working or updated cgminers to other ants, heres few s1:s still making noise

Edit: I guess since you are replying to my previous post where I am referring to 4.6.1, then your statement does apply. But I want to double check. Cheers.

There is no option that will fix it in the bitmain fork.

"Hi, no worries, we've updated the firmware.Our antpool is open public and you may try with solo.antpool.com to try. it's more stable than p2pool. Engineers are still working on the popool issue to get it more stable:)"

In other words: Hi, I have no idea what the fuck you're talking about in any depth because my grasp of the English language isn't good enough. We good do you by me bitcoin.

I'm half way through switching my gear over to SP-Tech, I just grow tired of Bitmain not listening to either you guys or p2pool users - & their latest fiasco with their own version of p2pool was the last straw for me. I'm totally sold on these SP20's too - they just work.

What specifically is the issue? (provide error messages, log details, etc...) Are you running your own node, or trying to mine on another node? If you have not read it already, you may want to read the P2Pool Wiki. https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/P2Pool

Anyone have a C1 pointing at p2pool? Mine seems to behave like my S2 pre-fix ... abysmal.
I was expecting the C1 to act like a S3, but it doesn't, it acts like an S2. Including the annoying "have to set queue to 0 every reboot" problem.

I have C1's using P2Pool. Mine are getting the full 1000GH/s, but they do require the same re-setting of queue after a reboot. I also set the pseudo share difficulty. It has been discussed that setting pseudo difficulty does not effect the overall performance, however setting pseudo difficulty will make cgminer and the UI show the expected hashrate. I use +1028 (If you use +1024, Best Share is not displayed. But with +1028, best Share works. I have no idea why.) Regarding setting the queue, S2/S4/C1 all have the same OS configuration.

You need to provide more detail than this. Is your laptop running as a P2Pool node? First, try using a different P2Pool node. For example, you can point your S2 to Coin Cadence. They do not charge a fee. You can read more info on their site. http://minefast.coincadence.com/index.htmlHere is CoinCadence Pool Info: Pool URL: stratum+tcp://minefast.CoinCadence.com:9332 Username: Your_Bitcoin_Address_For_Payment Password: Not required

I agree it doesn't really matter for finding shares or average payout. But it does matter if you want to see a constant hashrate in your reports, charts, cgminer interface. It's more of a piece of mind, which is important to me.

M Why am I not surprised by this... Bitmain claims to want to support p2pool... but the only products they've ever released that worked with p2pool out of the gate are the S1 and S3. Even those products use forked versions of cgminer that until recently was based on 3.x. Furthermore, their binaries throw away stale shares, which can lead to potential block solutions being tossed.
