I've just created a kncminer branch on my github and have imported their most current code and built my first binary for this. It is not a full firmware and the only thing users may note is the hashrate won't lie with this one, as it won't count hardware errors as hashrate. Also my hardware error count is significantly lower with this on the Saturn dev machine I was sent.
Here's a direct link to the binary:
http://ck.kolivas.org/apps/cgminer/kncminer/cgminerYou'll have to ssh into the kncminer and copy and use that file directly. Hopefully the libraries all match between my dev environment and the default kncminer operating system which means the binary should just work if you run it like on any other OS.
I'm still learning linux, but would love to try this...
I'll let someone post a clear procedure before I try... ug.Thank you cklovas!
I second this.
ssh into your kncminer if you know its IP address is 192.168.1.X:
ssh -l root 192.168.1.X
screen -d -r
q
wget http://ck.kolivas.org/apps/cgminer/kncminer/cgminer
chmod +x cgminer
./cgminer -c /config/cgminer.conf
q is to quit the already running cgminer
hello and thank you ckolivas (and kano if he was involved in anyway in this new release of cgminer).
2ndly, for those of US that find this new version of cgminer works/improves their mining, please don't forget to send some btc love to ckolivas. Lets keep these important members of the btc community well fed so their minds are tip top.
And finally, ckolivas, did you see anything in knc miners code that would cause lower hashing rates, not just report inaccurate HW errors?
thanks.
