Open Source XPM (Primecoin) GPU Miner & Pool xpmforall.org

[Neosaan]

Good evening. My English is bad. Please izveinit me for Google translator

I have a problem, I connect their rigs to your pool.
But only one bullet shows up to 2 or rigs. The rest is not visible in the statistics ...

  program miners working on drilling rigs. Shows accepted and CPD.
What could be the problem?
Please help ... And then on ypool payment I do not like ...

Question: so in the config file it has "-1" as meaning don't change for the corefreq, etc. What if I want to change these? What value do I add? I tried changing the corefreq in Afterburner, but it shows up lower when the program starts.

[Pachech]

And have a miner for CPU Primecoin?

Yes, for other pools (ypool, etc). Difficulty too high for CPU mining now.

Miner does not work
Error: -11

I think you use Catalyst 13.x, install 14.4 drivers.

Install the driver 14.4. Now the miner works.

I`m using good old Drivers only without ccc 14.2 beta 1.3
Voltage gpu and mem clock can be changed from AB and from config. Just don`t put some strange frequency in config.txt like 750 mhz for mem it will raise memory to max. 1600 mhz in my case, Asus 280x dc2t

eXtremal, why xpmforall.org server is re-starting very frequently? This makes our workers less efficient.

why xpmforall.org server is re-starting very frequently? This makes our workers less efficient.

Because a blockchain synchronization problem when pool node works a long time with a very high block rate. Without restarting other miners (such as ypool) get too much orphans it's not good for primecoin network.
With periodic restarting your workers lost about 0,1% XPM / day, not much?

Your server is great!

Can you explain with is different with this build? I tried it and I'm getting slower performance than with the previous version. I'm running 14.4 drivers. Thanks.

What GPU you use and how much CPD you see?
Can you run benchmarks (xpmclient -b) with versions 9.4.1 and 10.0?

XPM mining with 750Ti can be profitable after optimizations, if performance reaches 4+ CPD.. I think, it possible

Anyone tried older 6xxx and 5xxx card's with new beta miner?

[hoze]

Yes... Ati 5970 only 2.8 cpd  , 6970 ~2cpd

[eXtremal]

Yes... Ati 5970 only 2.8 cpd  , 6970 ~2cpd

Can you run benchmarks (xpmclient -b) and post results for 5970 and 6970 cards ?
