Hi Chris, I'm glad you're OK. Thanks for all the hard work you put into the Klondike project and thanks for making it open-source so it could continue while you were recovering.

Did you ever get that floor put in? :-)

Jeezus BkkCoins !

I hope you get better and better by the day!! These things can happen to anybody.

Please let me know if you need anything at all. Feel free to PM me.

The K16 is a reality. I'm sitting here looking at a few of them hashing away.

You did beat BFL. My friggin Jalepenos are STILL not here.


Take care.

Hello,

On Sept. 1st I was involved in a motorcycle accident. I spent 3 weeks in the hospital with broken ribs, a broken leg and a serious head injury. My physical/mental state after returning home was poor, and I did not want to deal with any klondike issues for some weeks after that. I am ok physically now.

At the end of October I started reading through over 1300 emails I had, deleting ones that I could not help with and saving the ones relating to orders. After much procrastination, today I read this forum thread to catch up on everything that has happened. I avoided it for several weeks because I was sure it would be a colossal disaster, and everyone would be ready with pitch forks to blame me. I'm happy that bugs were found and fixed and that people are able to get decent hash rates, but I don't think I can help further with development (except perhaps push up previously completed bootloader code I wrote but never debugged).

At this time I want to try to handle refunds for orders that were never shipped for those requesting them. I have very little funds left for this due to a large medical bill here (no insurance), and having to pay for a friend's motorcycle (which seemed to vanish while I was gone). I am able to refund most of the orders at least partially if not fully. Maybe fully. I'm not sure.

I also have heaps of k16, k1, klego and picngo boards, stencils and other stuff here which I can ship for anyone who actually wants them at this point. I also have full parts and Avalon chips enough for about 12 k16s, which I intended to build myself but never started.

The last few weeks have been challenging for me and I have not wanted to deal with any of this. I came close to not returning here at all but decided it's better I try to deal with refunds to the extent I can, and at least let people know that I never planned to drop out, or scam anyone.

I hope you'll accept my apologies for being so late to speak up here. Posting sooner may have alleviated some concerns, but I don't feel I would have been able to help with technical matters, and didn't want to get involved again.

I'll try to deal with my emails related to requests soon. I have not read my PMs here yet and will try to skim through those in the next few days.

Chris.


Welcome back!

You got us all worried man. Good to hear you're alive (literally!). I hope Bicky (Bicknellski) didn't pester your inlaws too much Smiley

Sit back, relax, let the others carry the torch for a while.

I would be interested in some Avalon chips and the raw board materials. I would like to try fabricating this board myself as it seems fascinating. I am glad you are okay, and recovering from your accident. If you can help, PM me Smiley

 Curious. Did you perchance build a custom version of CGMiner with the "went idle before work was sent" adjustment ?

No.. I still get the occasional USB error messages but they don't affect hash rate or cause disconnects.

Heh - Chris, I read your description and actually found myself able to understand the circumstances quite well Smiley
(I had a motorbike accident ... with a truck ... Sep/11 16 years ago ... (major) broken leg and ribs ... though I was lucky - no head injuries)

Anyway, during your absence I've rewritten a lot of the Klondike driver for cgminer
(been working with the klondike team)
I've had a few small questions about the driver that seem to have been resolved - but would be good chase you up in a few weeks if possible (I'm very busy with another driver for the next week or 2) just regarding the changes that zipiju has suggested regarding expected hardware limitations (I've been overly wary of having the default settings too high)


Meanwhile ...

Yeah the messages basically mean that my driver changes may need more tweaking to maximise performance (e.g. as zipiju's change suggests) but they also represent quite a minor loss in performance.
I get the message every so often on a 2xKLN setup at 333Mhz (that's also mining with another 140GH/s of 5 USB devices on the same machine)

To let the air flow completely through the units,it dropped the temp by 2C  Cool

Has anyone tried avalon gen 2 chips on a k16 board?
I saw at one stage Avalon said the chips were pin compatible.

I'm working on it. Parts with schematics are done, only thing left to do is PCB layout.
