I'm Still having some issues with Windows 7 & cgminer. regarding Memory clock. i can adjust core clock fine within cgminer.. or by using the .bat file. i cant adjust the mem clock in cgminer. or with the .bat file i've removed catalyst drivers and reinstalled (latest version) i'd obviously like to adjust the mem clock as its too hot and draws 450w instead of 300w when it was running mem @ 250 any help?? the good part is i have my 6870's running @ 320mh/s, but still.. Edit: So i open Trixx to manually clock via trixx. which seems to have 0 effect.. however i can change the clocks in cgminer on one card correctly. but my second card changes to rather small values i didnt punch in.. i'd really like to swap this rig over to be dedicated on linux but i have no idea when it comes to linux

Which card is giving you trouble Mash? My Asus EAH6950 1GB DCII cards will only allow up to 125 MHz lower for the memory core than GPU. You try downclocking more and the card will just ignore it.

Hello guys I'm having trouble getting cgminer to recognize both my graphics cards. In my box I have a 5870 and a 5770. The 5870 is recognized without problems by cgminer, but it fails to see my 5770. The 5870 is plugged into the motherboard's PCI-E 16x connector, and the 5770 is connected via two PCI-E riser cables to a PCI-E 1x connector on the motherboard. aticonfig sees the 5770. user@linuxcoin:~$ Desktop/cgminer-2.0.6/cgminer --ndevs 1 GPU devices detected user@linuxcoin:~$ sudo aticonfig --list-adapters * 0. 01:00.0 ATI Radeon HD 5800 Series 1. 03:00.0 ATI Radeon HD 5700 Series
* - Default adapter Here is my xorg.conf. I added the second adapter but it doesn't seem to make a difference: Section "ServerLayout" Identifier "aticonfig Layout" Screen 0 "aticonfig-Screen[0]-0" 0 0 EndSection
Section "Module" EndSection
Section "Monitor" Identifier "aticonfig-Monitor[0]-0" Option "VendorName" "ATI Proprietary Driver" Option "ModelName" "Generic Autodetecting Monitor" Option "DPMS" "true" EndSection
Section "Device" Identifier "aticonfig-Device[0]-0" Driver "fglrx" BusID "PCI:1:0:0" EndSection
Section "Device" Identifier "aticonfig-Device[0]-1" Driver "fglrx" BusID "PCI:3:0:0" EndSection
Section "Screen" Identifier "aticonfig-Screen[0]-0" Device "aticonfig-Device[0]-0" Monitor "aticonfig-Monitor[0]-0" DefaultDepth 24 SubSection "Display" Viewport 0 0 Depth 24 EndSubSection EndSection
Does anyone know what the issue could be?

Does anyone know what the issue could be? Your xorg.conf doesn't look good. It also needs screens and monitor sections for the second card, and another entry in the ServerLayout section. Regenerate your xorg.conf with aticonfig --initial, you'll see the differences. You need to restart the X server after that, of course.

Thanks for your quick responses guys! sudo aticonfig -f --initial --adapter=all was the command I needed to make it work. It's running steadily at 660 Mh/s now.

I think I found a bug. Compiling CGMiner with Yasm support gives me this error undefined reference to `@Calc Sha256_x86@12' If I am correct, this means that the object files for the assembler compiled algorithm for x86_32 is not included in the makefile. What do you suggest for a fix ckolivas? Also, I appear to have found some bug regarding curses. Basically, upon exiting, the window(a command prompt) is not returned control. I.e I cannot change that windows's size at all nor scroll up.

Cgminer only reports what the ATI display library shows and does not show anything if it's not reporting results from a device. At the mercy of the ATI display library. If it stops reporting values there's nothing cgminer can do about it.

Donations for these patches to: 1NbRmS6a4dniwHHoSS9v3tEYUpP1Z5VVdL Thanks for doing this work. It will take me some time to review these patches as they're fairly large and I'm relatively low on cycles for anything more than a cursory glance at the moment.

I'd gladly make a donation for your time Kolivas. I want a specific startminers.sh script for linuxcoin final and cgminer2.0.7 Here is my current script: #!/bin/bash sudo aticonfig –od-enable cd cgminer-2.0.7 ./cgminer –o http://us.eclipsemc.com:8337 –u username –p password –I 9,9,9,9 --gpu-fan 100 --gpu-engine 800 --gpu-memclock 300 This is for 5970's I have three machines with 3 cards and eventually want 4 cards on each. I want to figure out how to make sure it will restart dead gpu threads. Oh and I already have a Headless auto start script so I'm all set there. If you are interested in helping me privately with this I will pay in bitcoin with a pre-negotiated price. we can consult through chat, IM, phone, email or skype. please pm me if you're up for it. I will also set donation to .5% if you help me.

Oddness last night. cgminer 2.1.0 was happily working when I stopped and restarted it. Came back saying there was a problem with opencl, binary was 0 bytes (or something). Restarted machine - same thing downloaded 2.1.2 - works OK, but lost 20MH/s! Tried 2.0.8 - works, but again working -20MH/s ...and I need every MH I can get, only have 150 (was 170). Setup is win7, cat 11.11, HD6670 + APU A6 Any ideas?

I loose speeds with 11.11,,, I use 11.9
but if it worked before it should work again
try this, try to delete cgminer directory and then download it and extract it again also if you get that opencl binary error wait a min, then quit with "q" dont just close the window run it again and if you get the error again - run it this time as administrator (I am not sure why this works but it works)
also make sure you are using -I 9 in your batch file or command line

I am solo mining. However it feels like "share below target" are muuch slower than when pooling. I am getting 8-15 share below target at 500mh/s per 2 minutes as seen by log. Pooling at 500mh/s I am surely to get more shares per 2 minutes, yet... Is there any problem with solo mining I should be aware of? I am not basing this information just on that part of the image, but from overall observation.

If I'm understanding your problem correctly, the answer is that they will all be "Below Target" until you actually mint a block for yourself (very rare, especially at only 500 MH/s)

What does share below target mean? I have never seen that when solo mining? Sam
