I have some stupid questions. I havent mined anything in a long time. However, I wanted to fire up a rig to see how it does...
But I have seem to gone full retard. I cant get sgminer to 1) show the mining console once it starts and 2) get valid shares. Right now my invalid shares (using LTCRabbit as a test) are hovering around 90%. Something is very wrong
Both rigs that Im testing are Windows (and I literally know almost nothing about Windows). But here are the specs:
Rig 1# - Windows 8.1
2x R9 290x Catalyst 13.12 SGMiner v5 and BFGMiner
Rig 2 - Windows 7 2x MSI 7950 SGMiner v5
Is there a breakdown for people like me who dont know how to use Windows to get one of these running? I dont care which one. Just want to get it working properly so I can make adjustments, add cards, etc...you know, all the fun stuff that I [can] handle on Linux without help
Why bother with Windows if you're a Linux guy? Get this: http://www.getpimp.org/

Nah dude unless you are stilling wanting to mine scrypt, this driver set is going to put you at a disadvantage for other algorithms. Also I think you need AMD APP SDK 2.9 or 3.0 beta

i getting 5.8mhs on qubit 1100/1500 what for a config u use for the 5.8 ?? I am getting 6.72mh/s on a 290x also 6.90mh/s on 290 { "profiles" : [ { "name" : "qubit", "xintensity" : "5", "gpu-engine": "1040", "gpu-memclock" : "1500", "algorithm" : "qubitcoin" }, ], "worksize": "64", "hamsi-expand-big" : "7", "hamsi-short" : true, "blake-compact" : true, "keccak-unroll" : "8", "luffa-parallel" : true, "gpu-fan" : "30-100", "gpu-threads" : "2", "gpu-powertune" : "0", "failover-only" : true, "temp-cutoff" : "96", "temp-overheat" : "94", "temp-target" : "85", "auto-fan" : true, "auto-gpu" : false, "api-allow" : "W:127.0.0.1", "api-listen" : false, "api-port" : "4028", "expiry" : "1", "gpu-dyninterval" : "7", "hotplug" : "5", "log-show-date" : true, "log" : "5", "net-delay" : true, "queue" : "0", "scan-time" : "1", "temp-hysteresis" : "5", "shares" : "0", "no-submit-stale" : false, "no-restart" : false, "failover-switch-delay" : "30", "show-coindiff" : true, "remove-disabled" : true }
Modified Kernel i assume? Stock kernel with same settings as you gives me 5.1Mh on a 290.. however with the Darkcoin-mod tricks applied it gets me to that same point

just noticed that drivers make a huge difference here! On stock kernel i got around 5.1Mh max on a 290 with 14.12 drivers. i downgraded those to 14.9 and with the same settings i get up to 6.4Mh on stock kernel! setting my xintensity at 4096. Hope this helps others out there

Drivers.. i believe (correct me if i'm wrong), everything higher then 14.* will give you hardware errors.. but i could be wrong here..

I've compiled sgminer 5.1.1-3-gc50e3 from Badman74 git source. When I try to run it for Lyra2RE, I'm getting:
[10:52:08] Unable to open lyra2re.cl for reading!
I checked that my kernel path is correct and there are the files Lyra2.cl and Lyra2RE.cl. So, i renamed Lyra2.cl and Lyra2RE.cl to lyra2.cl and lyra2re.cl respectively. Seems to be working now. Just giving a heads up.

I thought that those were aliased already to include lowercase. I think that is from when i reforked from sgminer-dev, for some reason git does not pay attention to me trying to change case on filenames so i will have to completely delete them and then re-add them to fix it. Thanks for informing my of that as my local version works fine.... edit: OK it's fixed now

Thanks for informing my of that as my local version works fine.... By the way, Qubit doesn't have seperate kernels - I think you said you did that? It's not in the official git master. The version in sgminer-dev is the one i made my changes to. It was merged some time back. Was just some simple changes that had been added to darkcoin-mod that I went though and added to most of the other old kernels that would benefit from it. changes were added here https://github.com/sgminer-dev/sgminer/commit/e79b27080539af2699b28caf148fbbdd0c8283c7 and more extensive here https://github.com/sgminer-dev/sgminer/commit/e334f11ad824b529d73124eab795afb119abd1cb. I know its nothing to the stuff you are doing with your kernels, but I really have no programming skills past learning basic on a trs-80 in highschool....
