The same, zombying, restarting thread, exit. Log is here this time as bit bigger: http://files.mail.ru/EF1CB1489DFB4CD08B5A99FD9EEC9ECF

Did you get any helpful details from the pictures I sent? I haven't been sure whats happening and I've had to resort to having cgwatcher monitor when cgminer dies .

I need help making a log for cgminer if you can't get anything from the pictures. Most of them show that one of the pools just keeps saying found a block over and over then everything else goes bleh. It happens whether its one pool or a few. Right now I just have btc guild running on one profile and cgminer set to rotate on coin change to keep it up.

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.

"The small guy is able to mine".  I think you missed the point. 

The small guy's mining with a USB stick is meaningless in the face of massive centralized mining operations. 

Maybe I missed the point. Sure, the small guy is meaningless in face of big organisations. But a GPU doesn't help either in this situation.

I understood that you are complaining the abonding of supporting GPUs because the small guy is not able to mine anymore.

If this is not your point - what is it? Where is the context to GPU?

2nd temp binary is still running ok yet.

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.

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

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?

Try it, that's still the site.

[techman05]

Darn website keeps timing out. I'm getting connection was reset errors.

Pm'd the page error I just got.

[techman05]

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?

sem_timedwait errno=10060 cgsem=0x044ed2bc sbutils.c callback_wait():2452

Yes that's addressed in the new code.

[techman05]

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  .

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


Best Regards

Is there any chance that Keccak (SHA3) mining will work on AMD GPUs?

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

cgminer is now bitcoin only mining software with no gpu code
