[higz]

Have multiple rigs with 290s and get nothing but HW errors.

Tried all combos of --shaders  2816, 2048, 1792 --shaders-mul 8 or 10 or 6 or 4 or 2

any suggestions?

@ wr104

Can you tell me how I can find out to determine my threads per core? I tried to google but can't find the correct answer.

I might have got lucky on my 280x. It is up and running at 135 kh/s and finding blocks decently but I can't get my 270x going. I keep getting HW errors. From what I can determine I have 1280 shaders on the 270x.

The two most important parameters for the cgminer-khc are the 'shaders' and the 'shaders_mul'.  The former is straightforward.  If you GPU has 2048 Stream Processors then, you need to use '--shaders 2048'.  The latter is a bit more complicated to as it depends on the GPU architecture and how much memory you have in your video card. Unfortunately, the best value for 'shaders_mul' must be found through trial and error. 

That said, with all the video cards that I tested, I found that the best value for 'shaders_mul' was always 8.  But, your mileage may vary, if you know what I'm saying.

When I developed the kshake320 opencl kernel and I was testing it using CodeXL, I did find somewhere a good explanation on how to best determine the number of threads per Stream Processor.  I'll try to find it.

Thanks for the reply.

I am also guessing that cgminer shows 2 blocks for every 1 block found because of the block reward plus the random coins in there? Cgminer shows 30 blocks and the wallet 15 blocks. If I am correct you might want to add something in the OP so you don't get tons of questions about that. I seen someone has already questioned it.

EDIT: I like this coin. thanks

Thanks for bringing this to my attention.  I'll investigate.

Edit: this limit of 1 forum posting every 5 mins is getting old really fast.

why cgminer still pool 0 slow/down?

That's what i'm getting still...

same here...

Go to the Debug console and type: getwork

What do you get?

"data" : "010000000000000045169a200616cc763b3f9de957df29b906201a6ac585d6d0aa8fff11b62f05a 6a831b9f039000000a83b541f198ccc1a07e72c5619b1e8fa7473451ef4a120884f73c327086388 ca916fd37797896a172541480f4a010000000000000000000000000000ffff0026b640000000000 0000000000000000000",

}

Ok, now do the same but, with the kryptohash-cli.exe that is included in the daemon folder

From the Command Prompt type:  kryptohash-cli getwork



kryptohash-cli.exe its close it self after i click it

Don't click on it.  Open the Command Prompt, navigate to the folder where kryptohash-cli.exe is located and type:

kryptohash-cli getinfo
kryptohash-cli getwork

thank you fixed and running now

I would need to see the cgminer debug output.  Are those R9 290 or R9 290x?  The former has 2560 Stream Processors, the latter 2816 Stream Processors.

To obtain cgminer debug output:

cgminer.exe --debug --kryptohash -o 127.0.0.1:38912 -u {YourRPC_username} -p {Your_RPC_password} --shaders 2560 --shaders-mul 8  2>logfile.txt

Then, PM me that logfile.txt file

Development can solve a machine can only run a graphics card problem?

Sounds cool!

Pool 0 slow/down or URL or credentials invalid

[WORE]

Interesting, got two 280x on Win7x64 w/14.9 drivers.  Getting about 147k on each card but nothing ever found on card #2, only HW errors?

Swap back over to known good sgminer cfg for DRK and bam, GPU 1 working solid.  Latest gpu support was for cgminer 3.7.2 and this ver is 3.7.5.  Anyone have any ideas?

[Truckfarmer]

Is this Windows or Linux? A "sample" kryptohash.conf file should be included with the Windows installer.

I've tried installing the wallet on (debian-based, PiMP) Linux & Mac. On both machines, I get a "bigendian" error when configuring. So I have the miner installed (and not yet working) with no wallet to mine towards.

I posted the exact "bigendian" ./configure error on page 4 or 5

Im getting the same thing with 290s(non x) all the accepteds show up on card 0, card 1,2 and 3 only get HW errors. Win 7 64 with 14.6 amd drivers.

We need to investigate this. Can you please supply a cgminer debug output?  Otherwise, I'm going to have to order another 290x

wr104, I sent u mine via PM

[kondiomir]

So ...When we will be able to mine in pool ?

[mrmanager]

I have been unable to mine, but it appears blocks are still being generated. I get stuck at either "Waiting for work from pool 0" or "Pool 0 127.0.0.1:32912 not responding!." I have tried inputting "getwork" into the debug cli and I get a reply that says "out of memory error 7." I've also tried redownloading the blockchain, and changing the username/password in the kryptohash.conf and nothing seems to help. Everything was working before the wallet update.

Occasionally I get "Pool 0 slow/down or URL or credentials invalid" when I frost execute my batch file, but not every time. I'm going to try a clean install of the wallet.

Is this Windows?  If so, ensure the kryptohash.conf is in the right folder. 

Unless you specified a different directory when executed kryptohash-qt.exe for the first time, the working directory is:  C:\Users\{Your_UserName}\AppData\Roaming\Kryptohash\

If it is Linux then, there should be in  /home/{Your_UserName}/.kryptohash  directory.

I never seen the "out of memory error 7"

[mrmanager]

Yeah, everything was in the correct place. I did a clean install and now everything appears to be functioning properly. Very strange.

To be honest pool will be needed very soon. Can not even imagine how to make successful project without pool's support. Anyway - wish all best!
