[Minera v0.9.1] Your next mining dashboard - Antminer/CPUminer/CGminer/BFGminer

[jekv2]

Ok, some good news, I had to reboot the RPI a couple times.

no freq is detected. Extra settings added: --zeus-clock 354

Good! Frequency is available only for CPUminer by now.
Dmaxl has some issues with Pool hashrate calculation (but it should get a reasonable one in few minutes)

In about less of an hour I should be at 1.44Mh/s. If not, it is taking default clocks of 328Mhz and not 354Mhz which u know from above I am using Extra settings added: --zeus-clock 354

Edit:
She is climbing up slowly.

I just did a static IP edit on the rpi, rebooted, I will see if everything is ok after the reboot.

I've upgraded one of my PI's which has 10 Gridseeds on it.  Non of the miners work except for cgminer only that loads.  And after it loads and says "online" I notice that more than one pool is active but non have any hashrate.  few minutes and one will be active, but NO hashrate!!

Do I have to power cycle? And I would like to try cpuminer, do I have to do anything besides choosing it from the drop menu?

Thank you for the hard work.

Just did a reboot... Not detected anymore.

Edit:
Miner will not stop and go offline when clicking stop miner. Miner will not restart.

Edit2:
Rebooting from GUI. Will update you.

Edit3:
Online. Not detected. Grr.

Ok, after 7 mins right after I took that screenshot above. It was detected.

Edit1:

So we have a 7 min delay from the looks of it.

This looks really slick!  Why haven't I heard of Minera before?  I'll give this a try shortly...

Also, does Minera have any plans to support Darkwinde's fork of bfgminer for Zeus hardware?

Thanks, feedbacks are very welcome!
Why do you prefer the Darkwinde's fork instead BFGminer 4.4.0 official? Both support Zeus, has the fork some features the original one doesn't have?

[jekv2]

Houston, we have a go. It has taken my cmd --zeus-clock 354 for Dmaxl cgminer. Everything looks to be working.

Last screenshot for you's.

I will let it run for 24 hours now.



Edit:
1.46Mh/s Now! Yeehaw!

I wasn't aware that 4.4.4 supported ZM hardware...which is why I've been using DW's fork instead.  I don't know what if anything is different but I do know that DW tends to update his fork before the main BFG gets updated.

Next, I don't have hard data for this but it seems like DW's bfgminer runs better/smoother (fewer rejects/hw errors/slightly more "stable" hashrate for my Blizzards than Dmaxl's cgminer.

Not a deal breaker, but more for curiousity...

Is it easy to swap out miners behind the GUI?  For example, I could complile the latest version of X-gminer and use that with the slick front end GUI that minera has....

Do you have any examples of this? We have per-core and per-chip stats ready in Git, along with support for 256+ chip miners. We also have clocking via RPC API coming up.

What changes are he making? I guess my question would be why aren't they being submitted to the main BFGMiner repo?

DW and Dmaxl did have initial drivers done sooner, but that was only an issue of BFGMiner devs getting sample HW. Once we had it we had working drivers in 2 or so days.

Edit: I don't see any changes other than rebasing off of newer releases of BFGMiner:

https://github.com/Darkwinde/bfgminer/commits/bfgminer

Edit 2: Per-chip stats are in Git for GridSeed devices too. Once running press D, M, Enter. The info is also available via the RPC API (devdetails, procdetails).

Yes, it supports almost any (decent/recent) cg/bfg-miner fork. Just compile yours and overwrite the official ones in minera-bin/ directory. Minera will use that to start it.

Thanks to Nwoolls for clarifications on DW's fork, if it hasn't such greater features than original one I'd like to keep only that (but you are still able to overwrite it with the fork you like).

Thanks for setting me straight!    I'm not technical in the ways of mining source code, so it's good that you've simplified it for me.  Clearly I was in error.

Great!  Thanks for clarifiying this for me!  I'm currently doing a manual install of minera now...looking forward to using it!

Please Help.

the miner shows online, however, I don't have any of my gridseeds detected.

More details?

RPI image?, Linux>minera?, cpuminer?

I just updated my gridseed RPI image, I now have no problems. Couple GUI reboots helped me.

[rammy2k2]

updated to latest version and now all the stats are loading forever ....

[jekv2]

I had to play with it. Really weird.

I had to update one time manually, one time auto gui, then one more time manually, then I had to do like three reboots.

4th reboot fixed the loading stats "circling circle forever"...

I would suggest just copy settings and rewrite the new image?

I'm getting this error, both in cgminer and in bfgminer

Code:

API bind to port 4028 failed - trying again in 30sec

I am really having a hard time getting the new miners to detect my G-Blades 

Anyone else experiencing the same?

Are gblades zeus chips?

If so, then yes, 7 min to detect my fury.
