Good show....
I presume it works with the 5 chip pods also?
I haven't had to use any reset commands like that before. I had turned OFF comm port FIFO buffers. They are still OFF.
The original version 2.3.2 I was using that doesn't have stats at the top of the page, was working perfectly before I started upgrading to the latest versions, which have all had a series of bugs either newly created or missed in each 'fixed version' which is completely counter productive. So I wait and watch until I think it's safe to upgrade, then look what happens.... ;( I appreciate the efforts but, it's just disappointing if not completely avoidable.

I'm afraid I don't have any 5 chips so can't comment regarding them
I'm currently getting a pretty consistent and solid hashrate on Clevermining so fingers crossed it's all working fine - only 4 hours of mining so far though

Nicehash is fixed now, so anyone who wants to mine there, grab the latest binary and go ahead. Smiley

Sandor,
using your latest version, 'I think' 1.0...
works great except that it's causing my farm to lose connection after a few hours...

stratum-recv-line failed
starting stratum on stratum+tcp:..maintheminingpools.com3002

Does not reconnect.
I can get it to reconnect via manual restart though.

Also, it takes up to a few minutes for 1.0 to start mining 2 of the miners as their stats stay at 0 until then.,
It's starting all miners clocks but seems that it is causing USB port issues. This is also causing me to have to go back and restart comm ports which just won't work for me. I ain't interested in having to do that again.

Perhaps the receive line failure is a clue?

Ver 2.3.2 doesn't cause this issue as far as I can tell. I keep track of it's overall performance by the total hash rate of my rig. It seems to stay pretty consistent and will run for days and days without interruption save a ddos attack.

Can you help? I love the display and stats 1.0 provides!
Thanks.


stratum_recv_line failed = connection problem. Try the latest binary and please upload the full log with protocol and debug output. Without it I cannot tell what the problem is.

Thanks Sandor, the help file is useless, it's all garbled.unformatted... what are the commands for saving a log file, again?
The version I'm having troubles with is 1.0b

I presume you want me to log this problem before I upgrade, right? I assume you have a 1.0c ready to go already?

Thanks

Add this to cmdline: "-D -P -L log.txt"
Yes I just uploaded a new binary for you to try, still v1.0b though. Smiley

Doesn't seem to work no matter where I put it into the command line. I deleted the " marks of course.
Trying your latest ver. Hope it works stably this time. I'll let you know in a few hours if/when....

Sorry " -L log.txt" is supposed to be "--log=log.txt"

Whats the best way to enable autotune for just one of my gridseeds? Run it on its own seperate instance of cpuminer until its tuned?

Seperate instance is the only way.

Sorry, I don't have time for the debugging game.
I'll keep watching the thread to see when you solve the issue.
Thanks and keep up the good work.

i have the same issue ,  change the psd, it runs good.

Anyone ever have trouble with Blades and CGMiner in windows? I get the pop up "pthreadGC2.dll" is missing, then CGMiner closes. So weird because it mines single Gridseeds just fine.

So much trouble I gave up and have been using CPUminer exclusively since!

I finally got things squared away and now cpuminer 1.0b is running 100% stably.
I am very pleased with it Sandor!
Now for the 24 hour acid test!
So far, so good.
Well done!

Has anyone encountered the following problem?:

I am running 20 grid seeds off a pi running hashra controlla (BFG). These are recently volt-modded 47.7k resistor to go about 510khsh.
Controller shows very little hw rejects at 1200.


PROBLEM: They are showing 510khsh on the controller, but poolside they only report about half that.

When I take I clock it back down to 800 from 1200, controller and poolside are aligned at about 340 per unit.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Tried a different pool? Tried cpuminer?
I'm not technical enough to debug but it's worth ruling out some of the basics - pool, mining software

I've tried both wafflepool and clevermining and result is the same.

I ihaven't yet tried cpuminer because I can't seem to image sd on my machine.

I had an issue recently, turns out a lot of the newer SD cards (HC/XS or whatever) have problems. Had to buy a little dedicated reader that plugged in to USB port and then it worked
I'm currently doing a test run of hashra and seems to be going well - only 30 minutes in though and 14% rejects... hmm! Will give it 24h
Clevermining seems to be reporting the correct rate. May test on multipool also

Anyone successfully running more than 32 gridseeds on a Raspberry Pi (wheezy raspbian image)?

There seems to be a limit of 32 USB devices in the cdc-acm driver or something.
After 32 devices the system reports "no more free acm devices".

That can be subverted by increasing the limit in the source header and re-compiling Raspbian.
I've done a similar thing for the LightningAsic firmware.

are your seeds volt-modded?

I don't think --gc3355-timeout is needed anymore. I think I have fixed what is causing the GC3355 to stop hashing, if you send work and reset too fast, it will corrupt the registers. Solved it by waiting a minimum of 100ms before and 100ms after resetting.

Is there a Windows version of 1b compiled somewhere?

Nope. Make sure your supplying proper 12v power to your last two. Try them one at a time to see if they all work.

Will this keep auto tuning? it don't even touch 361 KH/s.

How many hours have you had it running for, and what was the start frequency?

Sandor, sorry to keep following up on this. If you don't fave time to investigate, is there a way to obtain the source code of 0.9F version so I can compare it to the latest one? Something must have changed and I can try to figure it out myself.



Works fine here.


Thanks for the response. Does it work for you when connecting to us-east01.miningrigrentals.com:3333? I don't know where the other port is coming from, it seems like they redirecting my connection.
It works fine on 0.9F

Code:
