Hey guys, my Jalapeno ran at 6.4ghash to 6.9ghash when I got it from BFL. I flashed it using an AVR Dragon and Atmel Studio. I used the BitForce_SC-1.2.5 firmware and set
#else
#define __ASIC_FREQUENCY_ACTUAL_INDEX 7
and was getting less thant 0.25% error rates at 7.25ghahs/s
I tried to push it a little further
#else
#define __ASIC_FREQUENCY_ACTUAL_INDEX 8
now I get about the same ghash/s but I get more than 1% HW error rate
this is the grep getinfo that shows up....
*snip*
What can I try to fix this? I feel like surely I should be able to get more than 7.2ghash out of this
I've just changed a few settings and am now seeing 7.45gh/s average but 16 hw errors out of 1024 accepted, 4 rejected, more than 1% error rate. I still feel like I should be able to go faster than this.
anyone have any idea why it shows less engines than it should for each processor?
I was getting about the same results with the "standard" 1.2.5 firmware and tweaking it. Try ckolivas' firmware:
http://ck.kolivas.org/apps/cgminer/BitForce_SC/BitForce_SC_1.2.5ck.elf.zip it worked much better for me, it's running at 7.83 Gh/s and I'm getting around 0.8% HW errors.
