[ANN] TeamRedMiner v0.10.10 - Ironfish/Kaspa/ZIL/Kawpow/Etchash and More

[souvenir12]

Sorry mate, it's not a miner problem, it just appeared at the same time as installing the new version 0.7.5

rolled back the drivers to 19.9.2 and the miner version to 0.7.1 and it appeared again

Got it. Good luck anyway and let me know if you need any more input from me/us.

I guess the miner feature to increase ethash support on 4GB GPUs is not working with the old Blockchain drivers (22.19.659.1)?

I honestly don’t know, haven’t tested. The reason is that you need newer drivers anyway to maximize the epoch for 4GBs, they have an overall lower memory footprint. I believe something like >= 19.11.3 is enough, but not 100% sure where they reduced the initial vram used.

Phoenix maded some research about AMD drivers. Here his conslusions:

After extensive testing of AMD Windows drivers for the last two years or so, we identified two broad groups of drivers:

• Good drivers. These are versions from 18.12.1.1 to 19.7.5 (inclusive), and from 19.12.2 to 20.4.2 (inclusive). These will allow you to mine until DAG epoch 372-373 and won't need restart of PhoenixMiner on each DAG epoch change.
• Not so good drivers. These are versions 18.1.1 to 18.10.1 (inclusive), and from 19.8.1 to 19.12.1 (inclusive). This will allow you to mine until DAG epoch 365-366 and will require restart of PhoenixMiner on each DAG epoch change (for these drivers this will be preformed automatically unless you have added -dagrestart 0 command-line option to explicitly disable the auto-restart).
• Drivers older than 18.1.1 were not tested for 4 GB DAG operation.

It can be useful for 4Gb cards owners.

Team Red Miner v0.7.6 released

https://github.com/todxx/teamredminer/releases

Changes in v0.7.6

• Fixed broken keyboard input in tmux+screen sessions (e.g. Hive OS).
• Added support for 5500(xt).
• Fixed Linux watchdog support for hard driver crashes (script was not executed).
• Fixed kawpow nicehash extranonce support.

Another bug-squashing release

Any chance to get more CN algos for Navi in the future ?

Agree, at least trtl chukwa and haven.

iirc devs mentioned chukwa won't be great on Navis as it's on Vegas.

On eth nicehash always get error:
Pool connection was close due to an error.

Other miners works normal...

P.S. Looks like problem is in drivers. AMD released new unofficial driver with support for the public preview for members of the Microsoft® Windows Insider Program that enables DirectX® 12 compatible GPU-acceleration within the Windows® Subsystem for Linux (WSL) for DirectML machine learning training workflows.
There is the info: https://www.amd.com/en/support/kb/release-notes/rn-rad-win-wsl-support

Reinstalled 20.5.1. and miner works fine.

I didn't know that TR miner depends on drivers... It 1st time happend for me...

I have the 20.4.2 driver; no issue so far with a 5600XT on NH.

Team Red Miner v0.7.7 released

https://github.com/todxx/teamredminer/releases

Changes in v0.7.7

• Added support for Nimiq (dumb mode only).
• Integrated a Nimiq node.js network proxy into the miner.
• Fixed Nimiq bug that could lose shares, especially against lower vardiff pools.
• Fixed Nimiq bug that could cause duplicate shares on startup for low-diff pools.
• Fixed regression bug for ethash Nicehash, correct stratum mode now used again.

We now support Nimiq!

[stoniestfool]

is there a way to enable rxboost. either in the miner or separately before you start the miner? Thanks

It's a tool called AMD Mem Tweak.  You probably want the REF parameter specifically.

Please Vega 56 users, could you tell me your HR with CN heavy / Haven / Tube algo(s) ?

Thx in advance.

[WhyMe]

Is there any way to lower intensity on Nimiq ? I've some crap gpus crashing and I don't want to boost voltage ...

Yeah I try to run conservatively as in not going for max hash but best power efficiency:

TUBE = 1.35 kH/s pool side for 160w at the wall

[Iamtutut]

160W is indeed very low power.

[ZombieWorm]

160W is indeed very low power.

Yeah its ok and still good hash rate. This is actual figures using meter and not software under reporting.
