Re: [ANN] sph-sgminer: multi-coin multi-algorithm GPU miner

The screen does black out after a few mins. Another interesting thing about my other rig that didn't drop at all is that I unplugged the monitor cable from the GPU so I could use it on my Asrock H81 board that do need a monitor plugged in to start. Don't know if that has anything to with it, but... let me do some test about that monitor being powered off by X scenario....

No wonder I didn't experience the drop, my rig has no monitor connected.

the drop also happens on some of my rigs without a monitor attached. all rigs running 290 and 290x cards.

run "aticonfig --adapter=all --initial -f".

add these 4 lines into /etc/rc.local before exit 0

Code:

export DISPLAY=:0
xset s off
xset -dpms
xset s noblank

Just in case it's not already executable, run:

Code:

chmod +x /etc/rc.local

I have sent a 30 Darkcoin Bounty to cryptogretzky by myself.

As I only have 3 r9 290 I'll make 3 month to recover that bounty with my increased hasrate, but I'll be in peace with this bug.

If any-one want to pay me back a part of that bounty, here is my address to share the cost.

thanks works like a charm. stable for 4 hours now.

just a short update. after the changes the drop is gone but after around 4 to 6 hours the complete mining rig freezes and a hard reset is needed.

update 2: the freeze of the complete rig happens now after a short period of time (30min up to 2h). When i revert the changes the rig runs stable for hours but the rate drops again.

You have an overclocking problem.
I have that same kind of problem, solved it by reverting memoryclock from 1500 to 1250.
I don't know if the change we made has a side effect, but I'm pretty sure that switching back your memory to 1250 will solve this issue. After you can have some stable mining, start overclocking again.

If the fix work, fell free to share with me the cost of the bounty I paid for it. My address is on the previous post.
