OFFICIAL CGMINER mining software thread for linux/win/osx/mips/arm/r-pi 4.10.0

[canford]

Would a command line switch to specifically enable/disable certain Bitmain USB devices be possible?  I am running cgminer under Win7x32 with 12 Bitmain U2s.  I limit the number of usb devices to 12, and when all goes well the result is:



Then, unpredictably this can happen:



Sometimes you can fix it by quitting and restarting cgminer, other times a reboot is necessary.  Obviously not a priority, negligible hash rate I'm maintaining because it's on my desk and I don't want to throw away the gear.  The U2s also randomly disappear or go zombie once every few days, so I scheduled regular reboots.

Thanks ckolivas for great software.  I've been mining with cgminer for 15 months now.  I haven't sold any of the mined BTC, so the fiat return to date is -49%.  It is more about supporting something I believe in than trying to make a profit.  I'm up to 7 TH/s now, but BTC would have to go back above $640 for the operation to be in the black.

Sometimes I get AU3 device right from startup.

I was having a similar problem get a new usb the highter quality the better.

Are there any pre-built linux distros of CGMiner with Gridseed support enable? I can't get this to compile at all; GCC is throwhing an error saying it can't compile executables.

CGMiner doesn't support alt coin miners/ing.  Did you check in the alt coin forum for a fork that supports this device?

I can't find anything that supports it honestly. BFGMiner is supposed to but it can never detect it. Maybe somebody else will have better luck with it. Anybody want a GridSeed?


Anyway, I need CGMiner for a RockMiner New RBox too.

Anytime I get to the "make" stage it gives the following error:

[Axiste]

random guess, pretty sure ive come up against that before try:

sudo make

[rav3n_pl]

If configure end up in error make will not work, sudo or not.
Read line prior "can't create executables", or config.log.

[AJinNYC]

Issue was that I was using zero two in the CFLAGS Configure area instead of the letter O and two.

Hey,
I'd like to discuss an issue regarding cgminer 4.9.0, but not in a 790 page forum thread, of course. Would you mind activating the issue tracker on github.com in order to make issues readable and discussable?

Is the blockerupter prisma/tube not enabled in the windows binary download?  When I run cgminer 4.9.0 it never detects the tube I have connected with a

CP2102 Uart.  The option "bet-clk 25" results in "unrecognized option".  I complied it myself in Mingw.  This way detects it but I get LIBUSB errors the a crash.

This same setup works fine under Linux but due to hardware placement windows is the only option now, or the crappy controller using a proxy.  Never have been

able to get this thing to hash under Windows 7 x64.

...
I also now noticed there is a bug in LSTime that was mentioned earlier, the time isn't displayed properly.

Thanks for the update

Yeah a fix for that is looking unlikely now ... I've been looking into it in the last few hours ...

They changed the code that outputs the "Last Share Time" somewhere recently between Ant S1 versions.

So it makes it a bit beyond silly having the API break it's extremely reliable backward compatibility for a silly change like that ...
If it was a new field, that's no issue to add to my API hack/fix, but changing an existing field from a unix time number to a h:m:s string is a problem.

The new binary works great!

I got it back to a normal appearance rather than just the UNIX timestamp.

vi /usr/lib/lua/luci/controller/cgminer.lua

Find the part where it says: "--lst_date = os.date("%c", lst)" and get rid of comment (the --).

Had to do a reboot to get the change to show, buy you guys here probably know a better solution to reload luci/lua/whatever it is. I'm very new to all of this so hope it was somewhat helpful.

From:
         if lst == "0" then
            lst_date = "Never"
         else
            --lst_date = os.date("%c", lst)
           lst_date = lst
         end

To:

         if lst == "0" then
            lst_date = "Never"
         else
            lst_date = os.date("%c", lst)
            --lst_date = lst
         end

only 2 posts and never seen again. This fixed my updating and time table. Thanks for solving one of the problems I just ran into using updates. This fixed the problem thanks again.

Здравствуйте . Уважаемые специалисты, мне нужна помощь. имею scyipt Asik не могу найти нужную версию Cgminera для его работы.
Asik подключен к компьютеру с виндовс7, установлены драйвера для Serial Port =>> Com1
Какая версия нужна cgminera и какой синтаксис в bat нужен ?

Помогите пожалуйста, уже 3 дня мучаюсь ....
Пробовал Cgminer Zeus - он не видит com порты к которым подключен Asik

Работает только BFGMiner - но его работа меня не устраивает , нужен CGminer

Единственная версия CGminer которая увидела ASik было 3.1.1 -  но эта версия не умеет работать через прокси, а мне необходимо именно через прокси

Очень прошу вашей помощи.

Why is the diff. so low? Are you trying to mine alt. coins? CGMiner doesn't support alt.

Problem in github readme theirs no part for the update t sort time clocks out on it

vi /usr/lib/lua/luci/controller/cgminer.lua is thei but dosent give the full code to use as vi part is missing from gitgub

[crazyearner]

Why is the diff. so low? Are you trying to mine alt. coins? CGMiner doesn't support alt.

If his diff is so low then it would probs mean hes mining a newer coin alt or not alt cgminer you can mine different alogs such as scrypt and sha. Unless they have changed it since I last used it.

[wolf_miner]

Hi, is possible to use "Quota" parameter with "Rotare" strategy?

Thanks in advance W_M

Hello I mine the german "eMark" this is also a sha256 Coin
