Not sure where to direct this question, but hope you're willing to help.

There are many of us that cannot solo mine using our antminer S1's. We get nothing but rejects when it finds a block. Other miners pointed to the same client are able to find blocks.

Is this because the antminer is too fast for the getwork protocol and we need a stratum proxy for it to work?

I read on http://mining.bitcoin.cz/stratum-mining about ntime rolling and that 'a block created from massively modified ntime can be rejected by Bitcoin network'. Is this what's happening?

Appreciate any info. Thanks.

You could disable devices. And you could disable pools. Both "pause" mining.  Does this fit for you?


I think so, will mess with those. I have these set up on a media center machine and would love to have them auto pause on launch of a program like VLC like BOINC. Alternatively would be nice to have a one button pause/unpause. GPU crunching and video playing don't do well together.

Yeah nevermind. G then D will disable the GPU pretty well, thanks!

ckolivas
2nd temp binary is still running ok yet.
Thanks very much for your testing. This confirms that the upgrade from libusb to the merged libusb/x is at fault. It seems that libusbx is still not up to the task. I will revert to the good working libusb in the next  version again.

So would it be o.k to try this out or did you already clear out the temps? If it works better and doesn't fudge stuff make a 3.12.1 version... right?

Your website is giving me troubles getting to it.

This is where I've been getting releases from you ck.kolivas.org/apps/cgminer/ . Has the page changed or is someone screwing with it?

Like the info address for potential tips Wink

was failed to
Code:
sem_timedwait errno=10060 cgsem=0x044ed2bc sbutils.c callback_wait():2452
one of the expected errors for your test cgminer in the temp folder?

O.k then I'll wait for the final code then. At least your page is back up for now. It required admin access to load so when it crashed for me it didn't start right back up without acknowledging it.

I didn't check any further than that error so I hope your on the right path  Grin.

Hello,

Could it be that cgminer-3.12 has a memory leak?

When I run it on my RaspPI for ca. one day, the memory gets swamped like hell, as well as the swap. As soon as I stop cgminer, memory and swap load go down to near zero. I used htop to trace the memory... Also I recognized that, when I don't stop and restart cgminer, it crashes with a segmentation fault at some point (which might be the point, when there is no more memory available).

It would be great if you could check and eventually fix that Smiley

None.

I'm not a skilled programmer, could you explain why? Smiley It seems like the Nvidia guys have found a way to make it work.

There may well be a memory leak. I have not seen one, but I do not run anything on an RPi. If you can run the most current code from git as a debug build and get output it would be most helpful.

I'm running cgminer pulled freshly from github with 2 Antminer U1 after I have seen this commit:
Code:
commit 6ff2b7bd2c5c7684518fe7b1f67d42aca19eb85b
Author: Con Kolivas <kernel@kolivas.org>
Date:   Wed Feb 5 22:22:04 2014 +1100

    Add ability to enter ANU frequency as a multiple of 25 from 150-500.

But when I use
Code:
"anu-freq" : "250"
hashrates are still as default:

Code:
ANU 0:                | 1.741G/1.730Gh/s | A:140 R:4 HW:0 WU: 24.3/m
ANU 1:                | 1.819G/1.730Gh/s | A:128 R:0 HW:0 WU: 23.3/m

Is the option --anu-freq not enabled in the rest of the code for now?

It's just command line option code with nothing implemented yet.

If I follow what the debug says it says its 3.9 when I run it and anu devices don't show up. Is there a [compiled] 3.12 debug file?
