Cgminer - GAW War Machine help

[cloverme]

I have a zeus/gaw war machine that runs at 54mh/s and getting a working version of cgminer for it is a bit of a challenge.  If anyone has a working version of CGminer and has a war machine, if you could point me to a known working build that supports it, that would be awesome.

The highest I can seem to get it to hash is at 43Mh/s, but when it was hosted with GAW, it was getting 54mh/s.
The google results for the following link did not work, cgminer would just crash: http://mkbernier.com/setup-gawminers-mine-computer-windows-mac-linux/

If you get me a work solution first, I'll send you the 0.02btc.


Here's my cgminer command:

Code:

cgminer.exe -o stratum+tcp://stratum.nicehash.com:3333 -u 1KzdSngS7CNPFz15pU6SK1P1Eo1R8qjTkL -p x  -S //./COM4 --chips-count 256 --ltc-clk 328 --nocheck-golden

Code:

I've never used an actual PC to run CGminer so I'm prob of little use to you there.  But if you get a RPi and load it with the Hashra img it has been working GREAT for my Black Widow.  Plus the Pi uses very very little power so you save a bit there too.

I was reading someplace that you need an sdcard with some type of special config on it for the rpi. I have a couple of laptops that I once used for some erupter cubes so I'm using that at the moment. There seems to be some sort of incompatibility with how certain versions of cgminer work with the zenminers. Bfgminer doesn't recognize it at all, so I'll keep trying with cgminer. Thanks though for the rpi tip.

Try the "LUNAR LANDER & LAUNCHER CGMINER FIRMWARE FOR PC" link... just a thought.

If you do get a Pi use the "LUNAR LANDER CONTROLA" img.  No special setting need to be done just have to put your pool info in the web gui.  Very easy.

I know its Hashra but I know it works great with the Black Widow so I assume it would be the same for a war machine.

Also the default clock, for mine at least, is 301 but I found a happy spot at 308.

Thanks, I tried that, it sees the miner but won't accept any shares after running for 5 mins.  What's odd is that it's the same version of cgminer, but this "build" won't accept shares. It also launches in some odd mode where it doesn't display a menu like the other version, no hot keys seem to work to bring up the display.

I think I may have it figured out, running a test right now with some information found on the GAW support site. I'll report back later today, hashing right around 48mh/s at the moment.  If it works, I'll document my results for others who run into this issue too.

Keep us posted. I should be getting mine in a few days so would like to know the issues. What about psu/s? What are you using? I noticed these are rated at 1800 watts.
