GekkoScience NewPac / Terminus R606 (BM1387) Official Support Thread

[os2sam]

I am looking at the latest version for desktop 19.04, is this one ok or should I go with the previous version 18.04 ?

From what I understand the odd versions are like betas and the even numbers are the supported releases.  I would go with the 18.04 LTS (Long Term Support) version.

Hello everybody,

I'm new to the mining and Linux/raspberry topic, but i'm pretty know in computers in general.
My problem is, that the cgMinier 4.11.1 dosen't recognize my USB Miner "bitshopper GekkoScience NewPac",
or let me acess it.

I hope, that someone here can help me. I'm really frustrated and desperate.

I installed, i don't know for sure, rasbian (i guess) on the raspberry Pi
Everything's working fine so far.

I used the terminal with these commands in the following order:

Code:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
wget http://gekkoscience.com/misc/cgminer-gekko.tar.gz
tar -xvzf cgminer-gekko.tar.gz
cd cgminer-gekko-rev2  (thats how the folder is called, don't know why)
sudo apt-get install build-essential autoconf automake libtool
./autogen.sh
./configure -enable-gekko
sudo apt-get install build-essential autoconf automake libtool pkg-config libcurl3-dev libudev-dev
sudo apt-get install build-essential autoconf automake libtool libcurl4-openssl-dev pkg-config libncurses5-dev libusb-1.0-0-dev and libudev-dev
make [nothing happend]

I start cgminer with this command:

Code:

cd ~/mining/newpac/cgminer
./cgminer -o Stratum+tpc://stratum.slushpool.com:3333 -u (workername) -p (password) --suggest -diff 32 --gekko-newpac-freq 120

Tried it with sudo too.

Programm is starting, but doesn't start minning!

I recieve this error everytime:

Code:

USB init, open device failed, err -3, you don't have privilege to acess -GSH device 1:7

I used

Code:

sudo apt-get install input-utils
sudo lsinput

to look for the miner, but there are just 8 inputs by the mouse and the keyboard

I used

Code:

cd ~/git/vthoang/cgminer/
sudo usermod -G plugdev -a `whoami`
sudo cp 01-cgminer.rules /etc/udev/rules.d/
sudo reboot

after that the error is gone, but no USB device ist detected

I used the miner and the Orico USb 2.0 HUB, to which the stick is connected, on my windows PC.
No problem at all works just fine.

That's where i'am right now, don't have any ideas anymore, that's why i'm here.

Pls help!

Greetings Ricardo

3.   wget http://gekkoscience.com/misc/cgminer-gekko.tar.gz

I've not seen that command in any instructions.

Follow the official instructions in the top post or the more step by step instructions found here

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5053833.msg50968875#msg50968875

[mstrozier]

Also 2 additional things.  It would be best to put your command into a .sh file set it to executable and all you have to do is just sudo ./filename.sh  and good to go.

Which brought up the 2nd point, this error:

Code:

USB init, open device failed, err -3, you don't have privilege to acess -GSH device 1:7

You received the privilege access to your USB device.  You will need to use sudo before the command.

[iankasyp]

Hello there,

My NewPAC feels very hot to the touch a few minutes after being plugged into the USB hub,
*despite* not being used by cgminer, just sitting there doing nothing.

Any thoughts on whether this is normal?

I had been hoping to not use any fan at all at 100 Mhz, wishful thinking?

[sidehack]

iankasyp, yes it's normal. The idle power at stock voltage is typically around 1.5W but can increase if the stick warms up, as these chips have a marked positive temperature coefficient.

rickyt06, the cgminer-gekko is an ancient (~2015) version of the driver originally written for the Compac and no longer maintained. If you follow the download and build instructions from the first post of this thread you'll get an updated driver that has improved support for the Compac plus integrated support for all further products - 2Pac and NewPac, Terminus R808 and R606, in standard GekkoScience and bitshopper-branded versions.

[gt_addict]

Is there an ETA on the next batch of R606 sidehack??

[sidehack]

When you get it depends on the seller, but the next batch starts shipping from my factory next week.

[gt_addict]

Fantastic! Been checking every reputable seller I could both here (UK/EU) and the US but none have any stock at all so just enquiring when resellers would be getting them.

[sidehack]

419mining in the US, Eyeboot in Hong Kong and bitshopper.de in Germany will be stocking the next batch.

nice! same version? just a new batch?

[Brewzr]

Wow, just received an email sent from 419mining at 3:48pm to let me know that the r606 is now back in stock, only to log on to 419 at 6:58pm after seeing the email to find that they are once again out of stock!  Popular little beasts, aren't they.  Guess I'll have to shop around to find one now.  Keep up the great work guys!

could be that they sent the email before their website has been updated.

[Brewzr]

Would be great if that was the case   After reading through the posts I'm very much looking forward to getting one.  Currently have 2 Newpacs with a third on the way.  The difference in consumed power from my old KNC Saturns and BFL Singles is amazing.  The Newpacs have been grinding away for almost 3 weeks now at 600mhz pushing 135 gh/s each on the Gekkoscience hub with no issues at all.  Very happy with the manufacturing quality

hi all,

Need some help. Being busy to switch from win10 to Lubuntu 18.04 LTS.
I did find a few manuals to compile etc. for Linux/(L)Ubuntu, but everytime i get version 4.9.2 instead of 4.11.1 version of vh

This 4.9.2 version  e.g. does not know the --gekko-newpac-freq xxx and --gekko-noboost options so that way i know its an old version.

I started following the 1st article on page 1 and later i tried the manual on page 28
What am i doing wrong here?

Also been browsing the URL: https://github.com/vthoang/cgminer.git, but can find an another version. It keeps being v4.9.2.

[os2sam]

What am i doing wrong here?

Not knowing what you did it's hard to say what you did wrong.  I don't see how you could have followed the Top Post instructions nor mstroziers instructions, by using copy and paste, and ended up with 4.9.2.  I have followed both sets and have gotten the latest CGMiner each time.

[zsmith]

What am i doing wrong here?

Did you add the '-b 606' flag to the git command?  I just followed the instructions on page 1 to reinstall it just to see if I could reproduce the bug but I got version 4.11.1 and I'm running Ubuntu 18.04.

[margotcoins]

From what I understand the odd versions are like betas and the even numbers are the supported releases.  I would go with the 18.04 LTS (Long Term Support) version.

thank you ! I didn't know that, and now I was able to get everything up and running with Ubuntu https://imgur.com/DC2Fh6x

On the r606, by checking the heat, I gradually increased the vcore voltage up to the 460mV max and I am getting an average of 750gh/s, the newpacs are averaging about 10gh/s each

what do you guys think ? do you see any mistakes ? is there room for improvement or should I just let it be ?

should I dial down the r606 vcore voltages ? honestly I didn't get much of a difference by jumping up from 430mV to 460mV.

also I connected to the pool with the stratum+tcp protocol which I seem to understand is a desirable option as it helps keep track of your shares without counting only on your connection

about the pools I added a second pool server to cgminer, 'failover' should kick in in case the first pool drops, is this a good idea or is it best to just connect to one ? btw I am using de.ckpool.org:3333 and de.ckpool.org:443

Thank you !

[WilcoWi]

Did you add the '-b 606' flag to the git command?  I just followed the instructions on page 1 to reinstall it just to see if I could reproduce the bug but I got version 4.11.1 and I'm running Ubuntu 18.04.

i followed this:

Code:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade -y
sudo apt-get install -y build-essential git autoconf automake libtool pkg-config zlib1g-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev libncurses5-dev libusb-1.0-0-dev libudev-dev
    
mkdir -p git/vthoang; cd git/vthoang
git clone -b r606 https://github.com/vthoang/cgminer.git
cd cgminer

CFLAGS="-O2 -march=native" ./autogen.sh --enable-gekko
make -j 2

and when i look in Git directory i find this file: Makefile.am   merged upstream 4.11.1
its getting weirder to me.
When i browse and read the files on Git i should get 4.11.1 not 4.9.2


Tried it again, below the results of this new install:

Remark: did not connect newpacs yet, want the version to be right first

Really don got a clue what is going wrong.
As you can see, with ... autogen.sh ... its is showing a v4.11.1 header.

I really don see what i am doing different than what is being told on 1st page.

When i look @ logfile of config "config.log" its like below. in it it says it should be v4.11.1, then why am i getting 4.9.2
I have never seen a thing like this before.

what do you guys think ? do you see any mistakes ? is there room for improvement or should I just let it be ?

should I dial down the r606 vcore voltages ? honestly I didn't get much of a difference by jumping up from 430mV to 460mV.

What frequency are you telling the R606 to try for?  You should be able to do the stock 550Mhz on voltage level 4 and save allot of power.  I would shoot for a target of 750Mhz.

Are you using a USB hub?

What directory are you doing the "./cgminer" from?
