Hi ckolivas,

today I decided to give your miner a try, it has so many features that I could not resist anymore Smiley

Sadly, after a couple of minutes both GPUs in my rig ( a 5850 and a 5870 on a linuxcoin v0.2b system) are declared SICK and then DEAD.

This is without any fancy parameters, just -o -u -p and -I 8 (it is a dedicated rig) and -Q 2 to have a little more buffer (so I thought).

Is there some other parameter I can try?

ps. my rig is running since june with phoenix and poclmb without problems, so I don't think this is due to hardware/OS issues.

ckolivas is on a two week vacation.

Are you running persistent? I had the same problem before I starting running in persistent mode with a r/w file.

Yes, I'm persistent.

I've found that with a -g 1 it does not happen anymore (it's been running for half a hour now), but I loose a couple Mh/s.

ps. I had to install curl since it's not installed in linuxcoin by default.
