OFFICIAL CGMINER mining software thread for linux/win/osx/mips/arm/r-pi 4.11.1

[smesterj]

If you followed the setup and provided an address I assume you'd see it in you wallet "if"  you complete a block.

If you decide to mine for the bitcoin after your experiment join a pool. You might be able to get .01 a week with 180Ghs. If you want to try solo mining try something like julecoin. Probably the same setup for straight bitcoining(meaning you have to sell them into bitcoin) and a whole lot  less difficulty[and I'm not mining it    ].

No idea what a julecoin is first time I heard of it.

Yes that looks correct for solo mining. You are successfully mining at ~64GH worth of valid work and that is the only message you'll get unless you find a block.

Thank you for your help and patient.

Is port 8333 used for something specific on Bitcoin?

Asking because Inbound traffic from the Russian Federation to my computer using that port, I am blocking because not sure what the intention is.

[os2sam]

Is port 8333 used for something specific on Bitcoin?

That's the port your Bitcon-QT connects to the network with and downloads the blockchain on.  If you block it your client won't work.

Hi ckolivas!

Look, I'm running cgminer 4.4.1 and I'm getting "Failed to sem_timedwait errno=22 cgsem=0x0x7f030dff8270 in usbutils.c callback_wait():2766" a lot, lately.
After this, my screen session renders unusable and I have to create a new one.
This last part isn't important, but as for the error, I can't get cgminer to function for more than about few hours:

That's the port your Bitcon-QT connects to the network with and downloads the blockchain on.  If you block it your client won't work.

The port is not blocked per see, bitcoin client been working for 3 days updating the blockchain and since last night in server mode with cgminer.

Is another kind of traffic detected and stopped on that port, probably malicious, I am contacting the protection software company to investigate,
the only information I got is;

IP: 77.221.153.157 (Saint Petersburg, Zao National Telecomunications)
Port: 8333
Type: Inbound
Process: C:\Program Files\Bitcoin\bitcoin-qt.exe

Thanks os2sam

The Bitcoin-QT client will establish 8 connections on it's own.  But if you allow unsolicited inbound connections it will establish up to 125 (Default Maximum) connections to the network.  The more connections you have the better chance you have of having your block accepted on the network before a competing block in an orphan race.

Can you help me please?
Thank you in advance!

If its an antminer u2 and its hot  its probably not being recognized right. I had to re sit my ant u2's to get them to work right and then sold them since they don't play nice with other devices( they mined, but they reset over and over).
*If you see double blinks somethings up,,, be it playing nice or them being really picky where they connect into.

BTW you know you have a block eroupter still plugged in apparently.

I suspect a lot of the hub but I'm waiting for a pair of ankers to arrive...
Some are (at least for my touch) hot as usual and some are cold (I have 7 of them).
They are cooled by a fan directed to them from the side.
Yes, I must have the BE inserted or I can't have cgminer to recognize the U1's! :-/
Already tried to figure out this one specially because a friend of mine wants to take my be's for his experiences... but i quited. It was easier to let it there...
Weird, isn't it? o_O

[smesterj]

Cgminer 4.4.1 will recognize the Antminer S3 and Rockminer R3 or is just limited to the U and Box versions?

[techman05]

Tell your friend to go on amazon if they want eroupters. I had someone buy off a bunch of my set a short while ago though I didn't ask why. I kept hoping there was life after bitcoin for eroupters but nothing ever passed my way (like folding at home support or bonzi gpu applications [which do seti and a bunch of other group processing programs]

Ankers work for most but they are 3.0 and will cause pain if you plug in a 3.0 port (zombies and disappearing devices. I'm hoping 3.0 will be bitcoin friendly if people start building on its spec though.

Post again once you get your hubs. I'd hope that'll be the issue and your friend will get their free eroupter.

Looks like a cgminer bug actually at not dealing with a timer overflow. Try the latest cgminer from git.

I really have to find that readme file.  I keep thinking they run in their own confined space and won't communicate with cgminer on a pc[or linux]

[os2sam]

I really like the Gearmo USB 3.0 hubs.

[Grayson5]

Yes I did before but
Booth ASICS are conected to Mixer USB.
I want each ASIC to computer
Can I connect 2 Printer cables to each one ASIC to Computer?

I'm not sure I understand the question sorry. You can open your cointerra terraminer up and plug in two usb printer cables to your PC. Each card is seen as a separate device on cgminer.

I am having issues with my beaglebone for the terraminer.  Are you saying that I can plug each board into a PC with a USB cable and then run cgminer on my PC to get it working again?  If so, that would be an easier solution than trying to replace the beaglebone.

I haven't any 3.0 ports in this machine, yet so I guess I'm safe.

Compiled fine and so far so good, but I'll only be able to confirm tomorrow or so.
Sometimes it only lasted 2h, sometimes about 9h.

But anyway, thank you very much, I'll keep you updated.

Yes I did before but
Booth ASICS are conected to Mixer USB.
I want each ASIC to computer
Can I connect 2 Printer cables to each one ASIC to Computer?

I'm not sure I understand the question sorry. You can open your cointerra terraminer up and plug in two usb printer cables to your PC. Each card is seen as a separate device on cgminer.

I am having issues with my beaglebone for the terraminer.  Are you saying that I can plug each board into a PC with a USB cable and then run cgminer on my PC to get it working again?  If so, that would be an easier solution than trying to replace the beaglebone.

Yes indeed you can, though cointerra pushed me some driver updates that seem to depend on a firmware update that hasn't happened which means the last good working mainline cgminer for it was 4.3.5.

Mind you I've had all sorts of ever increasing hardware problems with my terraminer too and it is now completely offline.
