Hi, Big problems with my miner. I have been mining 2-3 months, but I had to make fresh install of my backup computer. All steps and logs are here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=101758.0Please, someone? RCP calls and job curls are missing... I have spotted the part in cgminer.c code, but so far I have not added own debugging messages while I hope someone knows what is wrong. Absolutely no idea unless the 32 bit version of ubuntu you installed happened to have a broken curl library.

I am most certainly not going to give one more second's thought to scrypt.
Don't mean to make you think of it, but, what the heck is "scrypt" anyway? Sam

A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text. Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing? A: Top-posting. Q: What is the most annoying thing on usenet and in e-mail?

I can confirm this. At first I thought it was because I manually added a pool while cgminer was running and that messed it up, but now he's posting a similar issue. Did you add a pool like me or did it switch and fail to switch back on its own Morblias?
It switched and failed to switch back. Was bonuspool the common element? I will check with Clipse tomorrow to see if he was having any problems with the pool. I noticed it is having communication problems a lot with 2.7.1 and I am not convinced yet it is the pools, but who knows, maybe it is. I will keep you posted what I find tomorrow. Thanks again for all your hard work ckolivas.

I switched a couple parts around in my rigs so I wasn't sure if it was a hardware issue, but it seems to have gone away.

I don't think it's bonuspool. The common element was that we both had a pool go down. I use Eclipse and mtred, and when Eclipse went down this morning, I manually added mtred because it wasn't in the config at the time. Later on, I realized Eclipse had come up and was up for awhile, but the miner was doing -exactly- what Morblias was saying: except that I switched it myself, and it was failing to switch back. Actually, I didn't even switch it - I just added mtred manually while it was running, and it went over to mtred on it's own. Of course at first I expected the errors it was giving... because the pool was down. I even checked using ping.eu's port checker function and 8337 on eclipse was closed for all Eclipse servers. Later on when I knew the pool was up, the miner was doing exactly the same thing. Sitting on mtred, and saying Eclipse was down. I even checked again with ping.eu to make sure, and indeed Eclipse was up. So I just closed the miner, repoened it, and voila, connection to Eclipse. I think this is pretty solid evidence

Failover only: does this override the default setting which is failover using backup pools when primary pool is lagging?
in other words if i use this parameter will it stay on one pool even if the pool is slow and not accepting shares at my full speed hashrate i could be sending them?
and default it would utilize another pool for some shares that the first pool isn't fast enough to select?

Yep, pretty much.

I'm having a problem with dynamic intensity with 2.7.1 on Windows XP:
When I start cgminer with dynamic intensity it generally operates around intensity 3 or 4 depending on what I'm doing on the PC. Last night I changed the intensity from dynamic to 8 (by typing "g, i, 8" in cgminer) and found the PC almost unresponsive this morning with an intensity of 13. I expected it to still be at 8.

I am most certainly not going to give one more second's thought to scrypt.
Don't mean to make you think of it, but, what the heck is "scrypt" anyway? Sam Litecoin mining, which I hope dies and goes away. Why is that?

Because I don't care about LTC, the software to mine it is really awkward, newbies keep coming around expecting me to hold their hands and explain it to them when it is not remotely trivial, and it complicates cgminer code and support.

My bonuspool account went apeshit exactly like that for a little while a few hours ago. I switched a couple parts around in my rigs so I wasn't sure if it was a hardware issue, but it seems to have gone away. I don't think it's bonuspool. The common element was that we both had a pool go down. I use Eclipse and mtred, and when Eclipse went down this morning, I manually added mtred because it wasn't in the config at the time. Later on, I realized Eclipse had come up and was up for awhile, but the miner was doing -exactly- what Morblias was saying: except that I switched it myself, and it was failing to switch back.

I even checked again with ping.eu to make sure, and indeed Eclipse was up. So I just closed the miner, repoened it, and voila, connection to Eclipse. I think this is pretty solid evidence I can confirm similar behavior as well in yet another scenario. I added a 5th pool (I already had pools in positions 0 through 4) through the curses interface. I then proceeded to switch to it. Shortly thereafter, cgminer switched back to pool 0 (presumably due to a problem with pool 4), and then I started getting alive and down messages every few minutes but not submitting shares to pool 4 (I also started submitting shares to pools 1 and 2 álong with 0 in spite of --failover-only and 18 hours since launch of cgminer). I deleted pool 4, added it again, switched to it again, and voila, cgminer is mining on it again. Next time I may try disabling and re-enabling it instead of deleting it, however I can also report that it said disabled on the pool after I hit P before I deleted it. I thought they were only supposed to go to disabled (vs dead) after a long string of rejects, and I didn't see any rejects. I don't know if this additional information is helpful or not, but something is up... ETA: I am using 2.7.1, I think the two quotes above are too, I just realized none of them indicate it in this post.

Alas that was the bug I was trying to fix going from 2.7.0 to 2.7.1. If anyone's on git and want to give the latest git master a try there's one tiny change which might help, but it's a long shot.
