produce the bin with 14.4 driver version then move to your prefered catalyst version

use what is on the git not the couple of files I released yesterday

I did just that, but the same error when starting the miner, all cards fail and restart is needed. Using old settings, with newest 15.7.1 x64 driver. Lyra2REv2Tahitigw256l4lgtc1024000.bin was made with 14.4.

"xintensity" : "500",
"worksize" : "256",
"kernel" : "Lyra2REv2",
"algorithm" : "Lyra2REv2",

Try using a worksize of 32 and an intensity of 17.

sgminer only HW on driver 15.7
nice release.

well read past post for how to proceed... (and use small worksize and several threads... and adjust the intensity so that it doesn't use more memory than the card has....)

I changed these settings and it started to work, on verters pool, but after like 10minutes, share above target, 50%+ rejects, is this a pool error or it comes from me? Also, the new miner doesnt have temp-cutoff ? I have it set to 90 but it went up to 98 before I stopped it.

djm34, try it => only HW.

Could be a problem with difficulty, I still use the same diff as the old lyra2re

edit: min diff on verter is also too small

did you produced bin with 14.4 catalyst drivers ?
what card are you using ?

actually I think they are making adjustment on verter, I had the same problem a few minutes ago with ccminer and getting now half of my nominal hashrate (worked all day long and was ok until now...)
also vardiff hasn't been working well on verters

[never]

Anyone else having 50%+ rejected "share above target" on verters? Should I switch to another miner or something? I didn't have any problems until like half an hour ago

The same here. I switched to Coinotron until Verters sort out their problems.

Try another pool with your miner, if share above target happens that would be consistent for all the share, not 50%, at least that's what I had when changing the setting of sgminer.

[pwpwpw]

anyone uses temp-cutoff ? I cant make it to work, tried with auto-gpu / auto-fan, without, but nothing, both cutoff and overheat don't do anything.
I can confirm, coinotron is getting 100% accepted shares

[TheCoinFinder]

Ok, I have put the mask back to its original setting on verters - and upped the minimum difficulty to 0.4

[fredeq]

Can anyone please share 280x bin from 14.4?

OK Vertans

Sorry for my english, im not the best...

My RIG whit 5 R9 280X ASUS DCU2 and Sapphire VaporX works now!
Not so fast, but running @ Low energy and Cool
All Cards by 65° @ 40% Fan Speed!

System:
Windows 8.1 64 bit on SSD
Driver Catalyst 15.7.1 not Beta...

I put the amdocl.dll File from AMD Catalyst 14.4 driver, direct to the Miner folder!

Find here:

C:\AMD\AMD-Catalyst-14.4-64Bit-Win8.1-Win8-Win7-WHQL-Aug\Packages\Drivers\Display\WB6A_INF\B171094\amdocl.dll

For all People that have Problem to Start the Miner! HW Error`s or what else...

Please set gpu-threads to "2" i d`ont now why, but more work not!
Intesity not tooo high, i have testet 17-19, but 19 is Limit!

Here my sgminer conf:

Sgminer is giving "high hash" rejects on give me coins pool (ccminer works fine).

[djm34]

djm34, try it => only HW.

did you produced bin with 14.4 catalyst drivers ?
what card are you using ?

Since that "use last year's driver" thing, while I understand why, irks me to no end...

me as well but I have no way to test as it works perfectly on my 290x...(no matter which driver version I use)
actually I also think it is coming from some other part...

[pwpwpw]

You don't need the binary from 14.4. I have gigabyte and asus r9 280x cards, one the asus rig I installed 15.7.1, copied the amdocl.dll from the 14.4 driver to the mining folder ( I tried copying the 15.7.1 amdocl.dll and with that it didn't work) and msvcr120.dll to the system64wow/system32 and mining folder too (not sure if that is needed, dont remember why I did it). Setting are same as with older lyra2 but xintensity=500, worksize=256 didnt work for me, intensity=17 and worksize=32 did work both on 14.4 drivers and on 15.7.1 (on my gigabyte rig I didnt install 15.7.1 and it still worked). Also the bin was not needed because my miner .bat did have del *.bin so the bin I'm using was generated with 15.7.1 and not 14.4.

I noticed one thing tho, if in the config file you dont put case sensitive Lyra2REv2 as kernel/algo, then it will compile a ckolivas kernel and you will get an error like, high hash target or something like that and it will give you only HW. even if you rename the kernel .cl file to lowercase, it will still not work, I cant understand why but it doesnt. The WTF ... error comes when you have too high gpu-threads, leave it at 2 or 4 (had no effect for me)
