I just started getting "found 0 chip(s)" error in CGMiner 4.11.1 and the r606 turning into a zombie; it has been mining steadily since august. i tried to restart cgminer, changed the power connector and the usb cable, but the same error persists. I am using Ubuntu 18.04.3LTS.
Got same with 10 newpac's on windows 10. Now i am resetting cgminer every 3h and my average has gone up from 0,95 TH to 1.01 TH.
I did start with resetting CGminer every 24h and ended @ every 3h giving me a good result.
The windows script is a few pages back.
In linux you can also make scripts, they already exist, just google it.
Maybe this solution i found out can work for you too.
-I read that you want to zdag all sticks. Whats that mean and do I really need to do this? if so how do you zdag new stick to your farm??
-I see a lot of people have issues with degradation of performance and a lot of people are just rebooting them every 6-24 hrs. How do I write that code for my bat file for windows 10?
-I'm having an issue where I can not overclock effectively past 300MHz(One is hashing at 68.4 and the other is 68.2).I purchased these from amazon from a guy who had them over clocked to 600MHz with a printout to verify. This leads me to believe the issues is me. not the sticks. I made a small adjustment to the screw counter clockwise and I can now go to 350MHZ but not for long. Is there a way to ramp in MHZ wile the cgminber is running or do you have to shut it down and go into the bat file and change it that way every time? What could be some of the common problems of this?
Its zadig-2.4 you need it to replace drivers in windows to be able to run newpac on windows. These drivers are standard within Linux
Look @ page 54, i did post an windows script to reboot every x-seconds (3600 seconds is an hour).
On turning the srew and freq maybe Sidehack can answer correctly (i did also ask some questions about it @ around page 20-30).
