[ANN] Yet another GPU miner release! [YAC]

[paulthetafy]

Oaky I have it built now, but now I also get...

What's your command line?
Can you add -D to your command line and get some debug info?

OK, I find the cause. Because the configure file, I haven't updated to scrypt-chacha filename.

You can search for: cat >>confdefs.h <<_ACEOF
#define SCRYPT_KERNNAME "scrypt
...

and change to:
cat >>confdefs.h <<_ACEOF
#define SCRYPT_KERNNAME "scrypt-chacha"
_ACEOF

and that re-run the ./configure and build again.

I'm preparing another source package. [DONE]

beautiful thanks!!

thank you the updated version works

but i think my graphics card is not ok, if i set I bigger then 9 i get

I don't think it's a real hardware problem, had it many times when settings are off.

[Thirtybird]

yacminer compiles and runs under x86 on Windows just fine, but I had to rename the .cl file to scrypt130511.cl *shrug*

7850 - 140 kh/sec
5770 - 60 kh/sec

EDIT:was underclocking memory for BTC mining initially... fixed that!

[paulthetafy]

Has anyone managed to get I greater than 12 without it crashing?

[JohnDorien]

Is this really finding blocks? i get msg "block found for pool 0" every 30 seconds but theres nothing happening in the wallet...

[bitdwarf]

Ew, can't connect to any pool:

and then it dies.

[paulthetafy]

Is this really finding blocks? i get msg "block found for pool 0" every 30 seconds but theres nothing happening in the wallet...

yeah I get that every few seconds, and then I'm getting lots of rejects, maybe 20-40% rejects.  That might just be an issue with the pool though, I can't tell

i'm pointing to my own wallet, so solo mining. Debug log does not say anything about a found block.

What's your thread-concurrency setting? Try increasing this number.

If you meet HW error, it might be the cl kernel not cover your GPU, you're running 6950 right? I don't have the card for testing.

[YacLives]

Im using the windows version on a gtx 680 i have, and its flipping out but im getting a heap of rejects and a few accepted

and the hash rate at least registers on the p2pool

yeah I get that every few seconds, and then I'm getting lots of rejects, maybe 20-40% rejects.  That might just be an issue with the pool though, I can't tell

It's issue brought from the latest cgminer 3.2.0, it's like the network activity is in congestion. But after a while, it will become normal here on my rig.

Really, good news. I don't have a nvidia card, how about the hash rate.

Current difficulty, you'll need some time to find a match when solo.

Have you tried point to a pool? If it have correct hashes, it should be OK when solo only need time for finding a block.

[paulthetafy]

Can anyone suggest a good pool?  I was using yac.coinmine.pl but I think it's a scam as my "estimated per payout" was really low (0.1) after a couple of hours at 500 kh/s

[hanzac]

I think it's legit. YAC needs 520 confirmations to payout. So maybe you need to wait for tomorrow to start getting payouts.
Just check Unpaid Shares - Your Valid: -----, if it's normal.

Or you go to yac.ltcoin.net, it seems having the highest hash rate so far.

Ahh ok thanks for that.  Never used a pool before (always p2pool)

P2pool has issue for too many small payments & it will cause high fee when send out.
