HASHRA CONTROLA on Raspberry Pi for Gridseed

[maardein]

Just a quick question here: does controla support setting the frequency per miner? So not just 1 frequency for all?

One frequency for all... No individual settings.

With v.1.2.5 in dual mode, I'm only getting 1 MH Scrypt and 60 GH SHA from 10x units... (850 Mhz)

After close inspection of the logs, I noticed that this newer firmware is using both CPUMiner and CGMiner.  Aren't they BOTH supposed to be run from CGMiner?  How can I go from 3.5 MH to 1 MH in scrypt?  I'm really frustrated with these devices, and I really think that I've been duped.

I'm giving this image (w/ ver 1.2.5 update) a try on a few of my GS. One problem, I can't seem to login to ssh.

None of these worked:

pi/hashra
pi/controla
pi/raspberry
hashra/controla
hashra/hashra
root/hashra
root/controla
root/raspberry


Suggestions?

same problem here  

Me 3 cant get root at all

Can change pool and worker etc no problem but plug in miners and they are detected but nothing happens

[cereal7802]

i grabbed my sdcard with the hashra image and mounted it in another pi using card reader. chrooted and ran passwd. can get in as root now.

I made a new copy of Hashra, updated it to 1.2.7, then changed the passwords. It was a PITA to figure out, but it's done now. I'm sharing it with you guys to hopefully help save some others' headaches.

Changes:

• 8GB card req (didn't have a 4GB handy)
• Passwords: root/darkknight pi/darkknight
• Default pools on first boot are set to mine for charity

Note: My MEGA account is free, so limited bandwidth. I'd appreciate anyone else who can redistribute it.

(Donations welcome if I saved you a headache)

Hello Miners,

I have problems with my Gridseed.

What pool are you on? I noticed similar on a high difficulty pool but got good results on low difficulty (less rejects/errors)

[Specialkey]

Yes it depends on the difficulty and how many hashes the other players have. And it depends if you come in a round where everything is allredy counted. Then you get a high rejecto rate.

But GPU´s seem to have a lower rejecto. rate. Looks like:-)

Do you know anything about " Hardware errors "? Do you have shown hardware errors on your set up?

What means " work discarded "?

Thx and good mining to you

Ive used BFMiner, LightningAsic Controller and Hashra Controla, all seem to give around 2% HW errors. Some seem to display them differently, eg in Hashra and Lightningasic it tells me which controllers give errors and its pretty even at about 2% each miner give or take.

In BFMiner the figure is 2% but one or two miners are giving all the errors and the rest show none.

So its pretty weird but overall I think its normal - to have a small amount with these devices. Like I said for some reason pools seems to make a big difference

I am having great luck with the 1.2.7 image for my seeds.  I am in the process of doing the modifications tot overclock and needing 950mhz as an option.  It would be great if we could have increased capabilities in this regard.  I would contribute a small reward to this. 

[rammy2k2]

for me hashra crashes after a few hours, tested with 19 miners, and i cant simply open the webpage after a few hours

Same here regarding "luck"... I have haven't had any drop in over 36hrs now..

edit:  nvm.. shouldn't have said anything..

looks like I have a PI that is completely down and needing a reboot.. no way to do that remotely.. and even if I could SSH in no one knows the root/pw

Mine doesnt crash but it restarts once or twice a day.  I am guessing that is built into the Chron by default.  It's quick and I don't mind much although it should be configurable.  Does Hashra participate in the conversation about their image at all?

[Specialkey]

My Gridseeds just restart a few times a day.

Can Hashra be used with Teamviewer?

Version 1.3 of HASHRA CONTROLA will be released this week. We're testing it right now.
new features

- removed bfg/cgminer stats which were confusing everybody.
- manual restart
- manual reboot
- clock speed can go all the way to 1200mhz now (not advisable, but for all you modders out there...it will be available)
- system settings with:
-- scheduled restart scheme in hours (0 hours for never)
-- SHA cores configuration for dual mode. You can configure the amount of SHA cores to be enabled (max 16 cores) more cores -> higher sha hashrate but will lower scrypt hashrate and vice versa.
-- you have to login with default user root / root to HASHRA CONTROLA webconsole. you can change this password if you want, in system settings.

Sounds Great.

Nice, I was just talking about having the option to restart/reboot via the web interface.
What is the reasoning behind only allowing overclock in 50mhz increments?
