Hi all, just want you to know about current status: I am right now bringing back the other algorithms to lolMiner 0.7 so we can have a real full release soon with all algorithms on board. Status here is that I ported already the stratum for 144/5, 192/7 and 96/5 to the new code base and got the 144/5 as well as 96/5 kernels running. Aion and Excc will be some extra work, but will also be done soon. This will then complete 0.7 somehow, making room for further development and making a proper anniversary version (lolMiner turned one year old two days ago  ) What is currently on my sheet for next work are one or two more Beam kernel (re) works to optimize it here and there as well as up to 2 or 3 new algorithms the miner not supports yet. I bet till its all done will take 2-3 month but well. One more thing I want to update is the configuration module. Stratum got a big rework in 0.5 and a small ones in 0.6 & 0.7, mining core in 0.7 and stats in 0.6 - now next turn is configuration. Once this is done I plan one special thing for you: Once lolMiner wents "final" I plan to do a release with slightly older kernel code but everything else up to date as open source, to give the community something back  But for instance, will take care of your questions. Stay tuned! ------------- I know, but this works if you want to use all AMD or NVIDIA devices, but not specific ones.
I will explain an exact use case: I develop Forager (in my signature) and I allow creating DeviceGroups based on card types. Different cards can have different optimal miner/algo So if a rig has for example 2 different AMD cards and some NVIDIA (or the other way around), I don't have a way to predict which card gets which device index in lolMiner.
With most miners (almost all actually) I can either set platform (opencl platform id, example - sgminer) + device list or set nvidia/amd flag (example Claymore/Ethminer/BMiner) + devicelist
Hmm, a GPU zoo is a very special case. Why not run the miner once with an unrealistic high device id --devices 20 and then look up the id of the cards to use. The way its done now from 0.7 alpha 3 and newer it is guarantied that the cards always get the same id every run (because they are ordered by pcie-id) , so this is a one time setup. ------------- I would like to mine Beam with this miner. May I know what are the overclock settings should I do for my RX580 8GB cards to get the most sols? Like how much core, memory, voltage and etc? Would like to know the efficient way to mine for this card for BEAM. THanks
I run my 580 at 1200 core, 875 mV core voltage and 1850 memory. I found it not worth increasing core or memory, because gain in sol/s were low. Best thing here is the undervolt, because that has almost no effect on speed but reduces the heat and consumption a lot. ------------- I put the vega 64 back to factory mem/speed settings. Sol rate dropped by quite a bit. It would seem the rate gets better the slower and less voltage is applied. No advantage that I can see for a 64 at this point.
No matter what settings I try in Overdrive I can not get the Vega 64's to perform (on average) higher than what my Vega 56's are doing. I seem to get a consistent 18-20 SOLs. I'm on Win 10, driver 19.1.1. Pagefile is set to 120GB to use across 9 cards.
Does this have something to do with LoLminer?
For an upcoming release, would it be possible to add stats like fan speed, temp, and watts?
Yes, when you keep stock settings its likely the card starts thermal throttling some time. Thats why undervolt even can increase speed. Regarding speed: I saw that not the actual memory speed is the key, but memory timings seem to be. At least there was someone who claims that with optimized bios one may gain some speed. Did not do tests myself, but will next days to figure out details. ------------- I have 16GB of RAM and a pagefilesize of 128GB.
Ok, then I got no clue ... Have you tried running 2x 3 miners per instance? So start with --devices 0,1,2 on the first run, wait a bit and then start a second with the other cards? ------------- I created an updated video guide on mining beam In the updated guide I walkthrough mining beam with AMD GPUs -- I am using the latest lolminer build and include my config for leafpool -- you can simply download it and swap my beam address with yours so you are mining to your own wallet in seconds. Hope it helps https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tqPEd_3tCDU Awesome! But you mention that one can mine grin with this ... I would say: not yet

Hi, nice miner  Just started mining in my rx 580 rig and vega 64 rig,  I have some doubts: In rx 580 rig i have 4gb and 8gb cards but the hash is similar between average 11.5 (4gb cards) and 12.5 sol/s (8gb cards). Is this the expectable ? Should be any major diff in the 8gb cards or is normal? In vega 64 i got in average 19-20 sol per card. In manual i read i could change worksize but i dont change anything. Is auto ok? The miner use all available gpu memory in this mode? Im seing is using this kernel for the 8gb card: https://ibb.co/58WZk6D , that appears the same as the 4 gb card  Im from cryptnight algos and notice this consume a little more power too.  Thanks

Thanks The 8G vs. 4G should not make a difference here, because the algorithm running on both is the same (currently). The only difference could be in memory timings, because many 8G are per default a bit higher clocked in memory and the bios is tuned for slightly tighter memory timings (in nanoseconds) - that can make a difference, but at same timings & clocks there should not be a difference.

Sup Miners? I hope all is good. Nevertheless, I am having problems with 3 of 6 AMD cards. The 3 of which I am talking about reads as follows:
Active: false (OpenCL init failure: Memory object allocation failure)

@lollie, how u set up ,the gpu mhz in polarisbioseditor.1.4 , i have now 1306. i want to set 1200, and 875mv, that i dont know how to set timings at "gpu">>polarisbioseditor. to stay at 1200 (i have sapphire rx 480 8gb) or if u have some mode for this.
u bring back the mnx coin? to v007, or it is dead?or its gonna be

Does your hashrate change based upon whatever the pool POW sends? Or, do all coins, say on 144_5, hash at the same speed?

As a result of our community voting by overwhelming majority, SafeCoin will be switching to Equihash 192_7 with the same personalization string ("Safecoin"). Our move to Equihash 192_7 gives us far greater resistance to FPGAs, which allows for a smoother hashrate and more consistent rewards for GPU miners. At this time, it also resists Nicehash, which is a goal we always strive for. We will always listen to our community, and this change reflects that philosophy. We hope Equihash 192_7 serves us well, and you can look at our support, our FAQ, or speak to our team, about ways you can mine Safecoin on it with AMD or NVidia, including 3GB GPUs and up as well as supported pools during the transition. Thank you kindly for your support, and once again, as a reminder please move out of any Z-addresses prior to our Z-address burn on March 1st! Algo change to Equihash 192_7: Block 523230 *Approximately: 02/18/2019 @ 2:58am (UTC) *An overlap grace period will begin 30 minutes earlier, either algo is accepted during this time https://github.com/Lolliedieb/lolMiner-releases/releases/tag/0.6 lolMiner.exe --coin AUTO192_7 --overwritePersonal Safecoin --pool YOUR_FAVORITE_POOL --port POOL_PORT --user YOUR_SAFECOIN_WALLET.lolRig --pass x

First I will do the update to ordinary 0.7  That reminds me of posting a status. All stratum codes from 0.6 are ready ported to 0.7 framework. Also mining code for 144/5 (+EXCC variant) , 192/7, 210 / 9 and the 96/5 one for AMD are ready. The 96/5 for NV making some problems atm, hope I can sort it out today. Regarding better speeds: as said, want to bring 0.7 first, but I decided to go back to the old system of versioning so, there will be continuous updates. The version after 0.7 will be 0.71 and not 0.8 alpha 1. This also means all algorithms remain on board this time. Beside pure naming I dived into GCN ASM the last days. Hope to bring some boost from asm flavored AMD kernels. But can not make big promises yet. Will see how this works out.

What driver are you guys using for RX AMD cards?
I've switched from "blockchain" to 18.6.1 version and the fancontrol on my onNTool doen't seem to work anymore (even if set at 70 degrees the fans don't ramp up at that temp).
Mining beam btw.
I use 18.6.1 version of AMD drivers. Cooler turns regulate free third-party program OpenHardwareMonitor. Since the BEAM is not very heavy algo for graphics card; for RX480 enough to set the value of the rpm of the cooler at 55-60%.

Hello Lolliedieb,
I'm trying to mine @ equihash192.mine.zergpool.com:2144 with AUTO192_7:
1) lolMiner 0.6 starts OK and mining OK until the pool decides to switch to other coin - from that moment it didn't accept any shares - it reports "Pool not reacting to submitted shares for too long. Reconnecting." and the hash drops to 0.0 sol/s !?!
2) with the same config lolMiner 0.7 cann't even start - it reports: "Error: No coin profile find for coin AUTO192_7"
I hope that you'll be able to fix that in the next release...
Thanks for your hard work!
