[ANN]Bminer: a fast Equihash/Ethash/Cuckaroo29z miner for AMD/NVIDIA GPUs 16.4.9

[ctp9]

Can CONFIRM that mining C29 on Linux with P104-100 4GB GPUs works!

Thank you developer! You did an amazing job of creating compatibility for the 4GB mining cards. Keep up the great work.

What linux u using? anyone tried p104 with hive os?

Yes, I'm using HIVE OS. Rigs just go offline after some time and hashrate decreases down to 0.

[WhyMe]

Anyone has successfully done BEAM on AMD ?

[realbminer]

We’re pleased to release Bminer 13.2.0.

Improve the performance of Turing GPUs when mining Grin.
Reduced rejected share chance for all cards.

Please see https://www.bminer.me for more details.

Happy mining!

Nvidia driver 417.71 on WIn 10 x64 1809

Bminer version later 12.0.1 throw an error:
Error CUDA error DRIVER: '500' in func 'BZSolverCudaImpl::BZSolverCudaImpl' line 186

Still the same error with 13.2.0

All other miners I've tried word perfectly on my rig.

Any ideas? Silence is not the answer ;-)

Seem working for me.

Running multiple P104-100 rigs on HIVE OS:

Using bminer 13.1.0. All rigs show that they are "mining" - there is progress and it shows that it is receiving jobs and shares are "accepted".

But on Grinmint pool - every single one of the workers goes offline after about 1 hour (requiring a reboot in order to come back online), and graph rate decreases to 0:

Offline workers:


Decreased graph rate:



Any idea what's going on? Grinmint does not receive any shares when this happens, while bminer shows that it is still mining...

My guess is that you are using the TLS port. Try using the non encrypted one - port 3416.
Also check with another pool (sparkpool for example).

Nope - I am not using encrypted/TLS port. I will try sparkpool then.

@realbminer  c31 do you have work

Different lite version distrib ?

[FATA] [2019-01-25T13:06:01+02:00] Irrecoverable errors: [D11] GPU hang detected

On equihash 150,5 (beam). NO overclocking. Gminer has no problem (even when overlocked). Bminer always gives the above error.

v13.2.0, gtx1070, Ubuntu 16.04, nvidia 415.27, cuda 10.0.

Mining Grin on v13.1.0 produces this error often on the grin-server stratum server.

Code:

ERROR grin_servers::mining::stratumserver - (Server ID: 0) Failed to validate share at height 12748, hash 787314f9428c, edge_bits 29, nonce 23765210304776512, job_id 1. Err(Error { inner: Verification Error: endpoints don't match up })

Any ideas @realbminer?

Nope - I am not using encrypted/TLS port. I will try sparkpool then.

SparkPool isn't even working at all for me - my workers do not show up no matter what I try...

Again, this is using bminer 13.1.0 in HIVE OS...

[Saydia]

In the new version there is an increase in speed?

That's because you're not formatting your email address and workers the way it is described in the bminer readme.

13.2.0 is very unstable on GRIN ... 13.1.0 worked without any crash on 200+ GPUs for 24h. I upgraded to 13.2.0 and now I have crashes almost every 5 minutes or so. There are now many "GPU hang" messages but there are no Xid errors in the kernel log.

gtx1070, Ubuntu 16.04, nvidia 415.27, cuda 10.0

also, bminer reports wrong hashrates for some GPUs, like 86.4 G/s for a single gtx1070 ... it then winds down in 2-3 minutes to 4.3 G/s.

Agreed.
The newest version is crashing GPUs (and isn't solving the rejected shares issue either). Reverting to previous version for now.

13.0 - perfect
13.1 - worst
13.2 - bad
