Any option to change frequency on each blade or GS individually?
Example: --gc3355-freq=123456789:888:0,123456789:750:1 will set serialnumber 123456789 to frequency 888 MHz on chip 0 and 750 MHz on chip 1 and so on You can add this line under extra options in the settings Confused. I have 5pcs of the 5 chip infinitys. Serials are: 6D863F8C5650 6D82366F5650 6D92278D4853 6D7615775650 6D8E07755251 I've run autotune and the freqs that are best for each are: 6D863F8C5650:868 6D82366F5650:863 6D92278D4853:868 6D7615775650:908 6D8E07755251:883 If I run this: --gc3355-freq=6D863F8C5650:868,6D82366F5650:863,6D92278D4853:868,6D7615775650:908,6D8E07755251:883It defaults to 600 (if Minera is on "default" for --freq) It defaults to 850 (if Minera is set to 850 for --freq) If I run this: - -gc3355-freq=6D863F8C5650:868:0,6D82366F5650:863:0,6D92278D4853:868:0,6D7615775650:908:0,6D8E07755251:883:0I get really wacky freqs, as I think I am only setting 1 chip to that freq. What am I missing? lol, it is probably something insanely simple. If I run this: --gc3355-freq=6D863F8C5650:868:0,6D82366F5650:863:0,6D92278D4853:868:0,6D7615775650:908:0,6D8E07755251:883:0 <-- you only set the first chip on each miner. Try this: --gc3355-freq=6D863F8C5650:868:0,6D863F8C5650:868:1,6D863F8C5650:868:2,6D863F8C5650:868:3,6D863F8C5650:868:4,6D82366F5650:863:0,6D82366F5650:863:1,...,...,etc

Yep testet it and it works fine. After starting it via command-line I can also refresh the GUI and it shows the stats. However the GUI (Start function) does nothing on my end.
Thanks
Can I ask you what kind of Minera installation you did? Image file or manual one? What Minera version do you have and what's the controller? (rpi? ubuntu pc?) Thanks

Hi,
great piece of software! Thank you for your work Michelem,
Did anyone collect experience with how many gridseeds you can run this on a raspberry?

Absolutely. I am running Ubuntu 13.10 (GNU/Linux 3.11.0-20-generic x86_64) minera@robot:~$ sudo dpkg -l|grep php ii php5-cgi 5.5.3+dfsg-1ubuntu2.3 amd64 server-side, HTML-embedded scripting language (CGI binary) ii php5-cli 5.5.3+dfsg-1ubuntu2.3 amd64 command-line interpreter for the php5 scripting language ii php5-common 5.5.3+dfsg-1ubuntu2.3 amd64 Common files for packages built from the php5 source ii php5-json 1.3.1+dfsg-2 amd64 JSON module for php5 ii php5-mysql 5.5.3+dfsg-1ubuntu2.3 amd64 MySQL module for php5 ii php5-readline 5.5.3+dfsg-1ubuntu2.3 amd64 Readline module for php5 oh well, this sounds weird, but probably it is an issue with the php version which is different from the Raspbian one. I should do some tests. Thanks No worries, Michele. It is fixed, the timezone was simply a permissions issue with Log.php. Make sure php-json gets installed in case people are running Minera on Ubuntu x86_64. After that it was peachy. To note, I haven't plugged in my Blade yet. I wanted to get the setup perfect before I switched them over. I have a second RPi, so I may setup on that and plug them in to that after testing with Ubuntu x86_64 (xubuntu 13.10). My Xubuntu machine runs bitpay's Insight software to explore the blockchain, also runs ABE too as a backup. It also runs a Coinpunk wallet. Kind of a little all in one with only 2 ports open to the interwebs.

Right, you're only setting chip 0 --gc3355-freq=123456789:888:0 means Serialnumber:Frequency:ChipID You have to set the Frequency for every grid, for every chip (0-4) what means 5 Settings for one grid --gc3355-freq=123456789:888:0,123456789:888:1,123456789:888:2,123456789:888:3,123456789:888:4

I'm clearly doing something wrong and have just given up trying to set different freq for each blade. Im sure someone has it working but every time i ask for the correct syntax i never get a response.

I've got the same problem on my Laptop, when I'm testing modded grids. Try raising the Frequency in 50 MHz Steps

Having looked at https://github.com/siklon/cpuminer-gc3355 I don't think you can set the frequency's by the serial number but only by the device number ttyACM.. as these move around on reboot it is pretty useless ATM.

You can. Sandor changed this yesterday on his version. You have to update to Minera 0.1.9 to use this feature. I tested it yesterday and it's working. But remember, you can't set frequencies on a single chip when you're using blades. This works only for grids. On blades you have to use Serialnumber:Frequency without ChipID. And remember... blades don't support auto tuning!

PS you can add more languages/keyboards/spellings on iPad/iOS and select the right one while you are typing something (icon is the world in the bottom left corner http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4509) Thanks for this Tip. Live can be so easy, when you know how to handle your iPad

Guess I finally managed to get this working. Software is nice but a bit temperamental: failover pools have to have stratum before their link, and the protocol-dump option doesn't really work, even if put on the extra options. And I only managed to get it working after a fresh SD format, couldn't get it going installing on top of my raspbian install

Only way that I can set it is via tty and chipids, so i have 8 settings per blade.

Hi michelem. Thanks to you and Sandor111 for all the hard work. The combo of Cpuminer and Minera is really shaping up to be the best option for GridSeeds.
How close are you to getting the start/stop daemon working? I'm interested in upgrading, but I'm holding off until this feature is in place.

i just wanted to say OMFG you rock, i tried every rasberry image and Minera is THE BEST.
one quick question, on your rasberry image, ( i know i'm a newb when it comes to linux ) how do i change the time zone to show the correct time on my minera web page.
thanks

Anyone having issues with losing random blades? I've swapped out everything else, and anywhere between 10-30 mins uptime I lose one, it just stops submitting shares. Restarting the miner(not the pi or the blades themselves) fixes it for a while.
EDIT: I found the problem. I'm using ATX PSUs to power these, I think I was asking a little too much of one of the 12v rails...

You'll have to SSH into the device, and run "sudo raspi-config". That'll give you some options that you can change. Under Internationalisation Options should be where the time zone option is.

You'll have to SSH into the device, and run "sudo raspi-config". That'll give you some options that you can change. Under Internationalisation Options should be where the time zone option is. As an alternative mechanism (the one that I used to configure the timezone on my Raspberry Pi), you can use the following: sudo -i dpkg-reconfigure tzdata
Here's a link with more details: http://aryo.lecture.ub.ac.id/configure-timezone-settings-on-raspberry-pi-raspbian-wheezy/Probably a good idea to reboot, then do a "date" command to make sure that it stuck.

I seem to have found something else, too. If I have more than 10 blades connected the GUI fails to display, says that the miner isn't running. But I can SSH into it and check the screen output from minerd to see that's not the case.
Anyone else running more than 10 devices on this distro?
