There are no binaries - windows or linux - provided for any version prior to 3.8.0.

About my question just before please ckolivas ?

Off topic.

Why ? We talk about cgminer here no ? I'm in the right place then

3.7.2 is no longer supported.  You need to Google "sgminer" - it's the cgminer fork that still does GPU mining, and I must say has quite a few improvements compared to 3.7.2 which is pretty ancient now as far as mining software goes.

Is there an API command that will get me the 5s hashrate or something similar?

I have a stack of 16 bitburner boards and occasionally one or more of them will crash and need to be rebooted. I'm looking for a way to figure out this has happened so that I can automatically power cycle and reboot the boards, but I can't find any API command that will tell me the current hashrate or even the current state of the devices. Anyone have any suggestions?

Did you look in the api-readme.txt?

Yes, of course. There is nothing in there that seems like it answers my question, unless I am missing something somewhere. I've looked at both the output from the "summary" and the "stats" commands.

aw ok, nm, I see some useful information from the "devs" command now.

I have a questions, Is CGMINER for mac OSX the same as the miner talked about in this thread ? The reason I ask is because I want to know if there is a way to have CG miner launch my terminal window with my default terminal settings.. I apologize if this is the wrong thread . was more of a vanity question really... just got burned out on CGminer opening in a bland black on white terminal window... all my other terminal windows open with the default settings.

I also distribute cgminer for Mac OS X - but without a launcher (unless you count MacMiner!)

I don't use the API so I don't know what would be best for what you need.  I just wanted to make sure you knew of the readme's existence.

Though through my quick check it looked like the "notify" command may be helpful, dunno though.

From the mouth of the API programmer

In an API devs reply:
Status->When - DevX->Last Valid Work

Says how long (in seconds) since it returned a valid nonce ... as per why I added it

Hi!

I used to run 2x 7950 + 2x 280X in one rig(4gb ram) with thread concurrency 24000.

Now I bought 2 more 280X and placed them together with the other  280's, to use TC 8192 which gives more khash overall on that rig.

So I place my 2x 7950 in my other rig which has 16gb ram, other rig has 4gb ram.

So when I try to start cgminer it says

[2014-02-18 19:32:18] Maximum buffer memory device 0 supports says 536870912
[2014-02-18 19:32:18] Your scrypt settings come to 1572864000
[2014-02-18 19:32:18] Error -61: clCreateBuffer (padbuffer8), decrease TC or increase LG

So I tried setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100 but that doesnt help either.

Only TC that works for me now is 8192

Anyone got some ideas?

EDIT: forgot some details

Also, higher TC works in GUIminer without problem...

Hi,

I have soldered Ants @ 1,088V. Did have some problems with bfgminer and because of that tested the new release of cgminer.


I tested every single Antminer with my Notebook Win7 and CGminer 3.12.3.

One Stick threw HW error during startup. But ran fine then. I got 2,8 Ghash out of every Stick. About one third did 3Ghash without problems (no HW error). So my new goal is getting all together @ 2,8 Ghash.

Tried CGminer 3.12.3 (http://ck.kolivas.org/apps/cgminer/cgminer-3.12.3.tar.bz2) on my Pi with the 49 Port hub. It told me not supporting the "--anu-freq 350" parameter. Is this not supported for the pi/linux?

Then  I tried the 49- Port Hub (pluged in all 16 Ants) with my Windows notebook. Only got lots of errors, saying it could not detect and "wrong device?"

Then I tried a single Ant at the 49 port hub. Worked without probems. Pluged in the second Ant - worked fine. Pluged in the third Ant and cgminer could not detect it and did not detect any further Ant. Tried that several times but never got more then 4 Ants working. I noticed that the LED (which is normally flashing when the Ant is hashing) is on (not flashing) for a few seconds on those Ants which did not get detected.

Looks for me like CGminer has sometime problems during initalization and is then not able to detect further Ants. Does that make sense?

I am crosposting that over at the Antminer Tips and Tricks thread.

Is there anyplace that actually does the modd or sells them post modded. Ebay's catching on that people want these but I haven't seen any mentioning this. At least the resistor itself is only a few bucks for a hundred.

If your going to cross-post also link to it like this -> https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=390929.msg5155376#msg5155376

Good day. Please help.
cgminer version 3.7.2 connects via tcp protocol to use the API miner.
Settings in the config file are:

"api-listen": true,
"api-network": true,
"api-port": "4028"

As a result, after the first shipment of any team, it is responsible miner and closes the socket.
What you need to write in the config miner, that he does not break the connection after each answer?

[RaTTuS]

ckolivas can you start a new thread and switch this one off ..... 

[dlowings]

I found how to launch CGMINER from the command line on the Mac, and it does use my default terminal settings, thanks for that tip... I just got finished reading the read me you had posted on page 1 and couldn't find the answer to another question... can you sign a block with CG miner ? yes, another vanity question lol... I just wanted more than my IP showing on the block chain if I ever hit the lotto lol ...

It does that by design.

Have just installed 3.12.3 for mac OS X.

I can only get it to pick up 10 USB Block Erupters. The rest give me this, SEM: Icarus USB timeout waiting for (65547) '/tmp/cgminer-usb-20-10'

Any help would be muchly appreciated.

A usb failure can show up in so many ways, this is one of them. Likely there's just not enough power.

A fellow by the name of JimJag found the solution to this in this post on the Asteroid forums.

The issue is that cgminer uses SysV semaphores and make use of the UNDO mechanism. OSX by default only allows 10 of these per process. Use sysctl to update to something more reasonable (eg: sysctl -w kern.sysv.semume=100). If cgminer has already been running, you'll need to do this via /etc/sysctl.conf and reboot.

The solution he suggests, can be implemented by running the following in your Terminal.app and then rebooting.

sudo touch /etc/sysctl.conf; sudo echo kern.sysv.semume=100 >> /etc/sysctl.conf; sudo chown root:wheel /etc/sysctl.conf; sudo chmod 0644 /etc/sysctl.conf

EDIT: See below for correct commands to enter into Terminal.app.
