Pool waiting for work message - that looks like idlebug to me. Nicehash will always send work to the miner, if the miner has authed of course. This has been tested now well for two months.

If you are unable to connect to any 333x ports, it is possible that our strict anti-DDOS protection temporarily banned your IP. Stop all activity, wait up to 3 hours, then try again with clean miner (just one Nicehash pool on port 333x) mining for 5minutes, then perform multialgo configuration and try again.

Will try that, thanks for the reply

Anyone have any luck with R9 270's ? All I get is rejected for X11 and X13 -- tried the 7950 settings, as well as a whole set of others that work ok for the sph-x11mod sgminer.. and no luck

anyone able to clarify if i'm missing a step ? trying to compile this into bamt.

cd /opt/mners
git clone https;//github.com/sgminer-dev/sgminer
cd sgminer
./autogen.sh
./configure

doesn't look like there is much in the autogen shell compared to previous installs I've been playing with ..

You're missing the ADL_SDK/*.h files for one, so see where they exist on your system for the 4th step below

cd /opt/miners/
git clone https;//github.com/sgminer-dev/sgminer
cd sgminer
cp /opt/miners/cgminer/ADL_SDK/*.h .
libtoolize
autoreconf -ivf
CFLAGS="-O2 -Wall -march=native" ./configure
make

[phzi]

cp /opt/miners/cgminer/ADL_SDK/*.h ./ADL_SDK/

ADL header copy command you posted is incomplete. Fixed above.

use like this not pool-algo

git clone https;//github.com/sgminer-dev/sgminer

If you would like to get the latest v5 branch (the one that this thread refers to), you have to do like this:

git clone -b <branch> <remote_repo>

git clone -b v5_0 https://github.com/sgminer-dev/sgminer/sgminer.git

BTW: some more stuff was added today: https://github.com/sgminer-dev/sgminer/commits/v5_0

i cant launch this with cgwatcher getting hw error
any help to tun with cgwatcher?

Ok, so I downloaded this and seem to be unable to get the whole thing going,

Currently NiceHash is on X13, which makes me believe it's a X13 issue... SGMiner crashes as soon as I get the GPU 0 1 2 3 4 5 window (where it normally shows hash rate). Before I got it to work a little bit with X13 but it showed similar hashrates as in Scrypt, the only file generated when I attempt to start it up is the one from ckolivas.

Any ideas?

[oktay50000]

use like this not pool-algorithm

I've had the BAPMSAM up and working now for a good 12 hours, although, predominately, it has been X13 that has been on order.

You will find that when Nicehash software switches algorithms it stops work on all the other ones.  This could also turn out to be longer when it takes the time to build a bin file (if 1 isn't there)

I suggest using RAWINTENSITY and NOT trying to mix XINTENSITY & INTENSITY settings in the same conf file.

Also, keep in mind that when you START cgminer it will START with the CONF settings BELOW ALL THE POOLS, so YOU MUST STILL HAVE SOME STANDARD SETTINGS DOWN THERE or you will get the ckolivas shit.

As I have it right now, I threw Nicehash ports and pool-settings in there ON TOP of an already working X13 conf file, and after fixing the INTENSITY/xINTENSITY combo issues by going to RAW (this is especially critical when Nicehash dips down in Keccak and back).

So far after fixing the intensity issue I've had a steady throughput to Nicehash and just received a 2nd payout about an hour ago.

This is a quick and dirty fix to the situation that I just mentioned about ckolivas and HW errors on boot of sgminer below.

You want to use pool-algorithm in the pool settings, and algorithm UNDER the pool stuff in the MAIN CONF FILE, so that when it boots to a certain algo YOU DON'T GET CKOLIVAS and YOU GET 0 HW ERRORS

[RustyShackleford]

This could have been in the underlying sgminer, but I was able to replicate a bug.

Segmentation Fault (hard process stop)
Debian Wheezy

This occurs when you attempt to start sgminer with pool-gpu-threads > 1, if there is not already a valid .bin for cklovias.cl

Fix: Start sgminer with pool-gpu-threads at 1 and allow the .bin files to be built, then restart with 2.


Discovered after cleaning up .bin files having tuned to gpu-threads 2 on scrypt-n

Edit: this is happening for each kernel in succession when i disable a pool, with other settings besides gpu-threads, such as intensity

[reza_abay]

I have one 5970 and one 6990, all have the same HW error problem
how can i work wth sgmine v.5 for ati card series 5000/6000?

[platinum4]

Maybe you can't reza

[reza_abay]

i try with 290 and 7950 work good.but problem with two card (5970-6990)

[platinum4]

24 hours uptime, 1 SICK -> DEAD card on a R9 290X, same setting as before.

Whoever it was, mrbdo or whatever ---> WHAT IS YOUR PARTICULAR REASON for not wanting to extend the SICK timer?

Mine to extend it is to TEST STABILITY OVER A COURSE OF A FEW DAYS OF UPTIME
