Looks great!

You should colab with phpminer for the webinterface Smiley these 2 together would be a dream!

+1 would love to see at least the phpminer rpcclient builtin and a compatible cgminer (i thinkg the current one wont work correctly since im getting some NaN on 5s avg hash rates)

Keep up the great work with this distro Smiley

0.3beta-2 released -> http://www.cryptoslax.web.id

hope some bugs are fixed, please try this first

Thanks for the update! I just tested.. out of the box cgminser-scrypt was giving segfaults. Trying to access the AMD Control panel didnt detect the R9 290 cards however aticonfig --list-adapters did showed the two cards. Decided to reinstall the AMD linux drivers 13.12 and bingo!!! AMD Control Panel now detects the card and I was able to start mining scrypt on GPU Smiley

I can confirm that there is something wrong when mining with R9 290's (not sure if other cards mine fine with scrypt). The same cgminer.conf works fine on bamt, giving me 850KH/s on each card, when tested with this distro on the cgminer included, I just get HW errors

Heres the settings im using

Code:
"intensity" : "20",
"vectors" : "1",
"worksize" : "256",
"lookup-gap" : "2",
"thread-concurrency" : "27400",
"shaders" : "0",
"api-listen" : true,
"api-port" : "4028",
"api-allow" : "W:127.0.0.1",
"expiry" : "120",
"gpu-dyninterval" : "7",
"gpu-platform" : "0",
"gpu-threads" : "1",
"gpu-engine" : "950,950",
"gpu-memclock" : "1375,1375",
"gpu-powertune" : "20,20",
"temp-target" : "83,83",
"temp-overheat" : "90,90",
"temp-cutoff" : "95,95",
"log" : "5",
"no-pool-disable" : true,
"queue" : "1",
"scan-time" : "60",
"scrypt" : true,
"shares" : "0",
"kernel-path" : "/usr/local/bin"

I'll try and see if i can recompile the cgminer-opencl and see if it was a bad compile or its the built in amd drivers

I may stick with 0.2. Don't need/want VNC or SMB. kalroth-cgminer would be a nice addition for the next version though!

0.3beta uses that binary (aka cgminer 3.7.3)

Im testing this distro (0.3b), however im having issues running the cgminer-opencl on a Dual R9 290, for some reason it always generates HW errrors, tested several parameters like

Code:
cgminer --scrypt -o stratum+tcp://middlecoin.com:3333 -u username -p x --thread-concurrency 20481 -w 256 --lookup-gap 2 -X 256

Tried several concurrency values and they all generate HW errors.

Tested the verticoin GPU miner and it works fine (and produces the normal KH/s for the cards), and so does the Protoshare GPU miner.. anyone else had any luck running the scrypt miner of this distro???

Is ypool down ?


Seems like it, webpage, forum and pool arent responding on my end for the last hour or so... switched for solo mining to try my luck while ypool gets up again

Actually no valid share was submitted. I just see a bug in the printing "Total/Valid Shares:" should be  13/0 and not 0/13.
Anyway there must be some misconfiguration there or maybe network problem or something. The Val/h is very low for 4CPU except if the VM resources are limited by the host.
Jabroni, can you see what are the error messages you had for each share submission?

Network problem dont think so, ypool webpage is reachable.
Worker validates on startup fine and i dont see any disconnect messages
Tried setting a new worker and still wont get any share at all
ESXi is mine, and I see resources are avaialable (and I actually see full usage on the vsphere client when I run the jhprimeminer).

Right now im running it again and outputting the results to a text file to see what it gets... Ill update my post in bout 1 hr with the result of it

UPDATE

This was the reason

Code:
SHARE FOUND !!! (Th#: 3) --- DIFF: 6.709006 - val 0.100     >6
Invalid share
Reason: Share data time overflow

And after some googling found out the time was off on the esxi, and was causing the shares to be reject.... Still it isnt normal getting that number of shares for that CPU isnt it ?? 

My stats after a 40min run

Code:
---- New Block: 117315 - Diff: 9.752157 / 6.000000
---- Total/Valid shares: [ 12 / 12 ]  -  Max diff: 7.93099
----  6-chain count:   13 -  6ch/h:  18.172 - Share Value: 1.300
----  7-chain count:    2 -  7ch/h:   2.796 - Share Value: 2.000
----  8-chain count:    0 -  8ch/h:   0.000 - Share Value: 0.000
----  9-chain count:    0 -  9ch/h:   0.000 - Share Value: 0.000
---- 10-chain count:    0 - 10ch/h:   0.000 - Share Value: 0.000
---- Total Share Value submitted to the pool: 2.100000

Im testing the v7.1 inside a ESXi Windows 2008 64bit VM (Running on a i7 920) w/ 4 cores assigned. However it seems that this wont produce any share at all. PPS values are ~15k. Anyone experiencing the same probs??

Heres an output example after leaving it running like 40 mins

Code:
---------------------------------------------------------------
---- New Block: 117030 - Diff: 9.750861 / 6.000000
---- Total/Valid shares: [ 0 / 13 ]  -  Max diff: 7.24141
----  6-chain count:   14 -  6ch/h:  18.896 - Share Value: 1.400
----  7-chain count:    1 -  7ch/h:   1.350 - Share Value: 1.000
----  8-chain count:    0 -  8ch/h:   0.000 - Share Value: 0.000
----  9-chain count:    0 -  9ch/h:   0.000 - Share Value: 0.000
---- 10-chain count:    0 - 10ch/h:   0.000 - Share Value: 0.000
---- Total Share Value submitted to the pool: 0.000000
---------------------------------------------------------------
Val/h 3.231 - PPS: 14099 - 4ch/h: 2503.87 - 5ch/h: 250.39 - 6ch/h: 18.85 - Last 4ch/h: 3142.93 - Last 5ch/h: 0.00
Val/h 3.221 - PPS: 12557 - 4ch/h: 2508.46 - 5ch/h: 249.64 - 6ch/h: 18.79 - Last 4ch/h: 4040.91 - Last 5ch/h: 0.00

And if i check on the ypool webpage the worker hasnt submitted a single valid share

If your pool supports vardiff, its better on different accounts so each would have its own diff adjusted to its hashrate.

But for 20-30khash/s I guess ur looking more into trouble than profit. Your looking with the current difficulty like 0.02 litecoins per day (7cents of usd) per desktop (considering it hashes at 20kh/s) and not considering electric costs

Re: ATI drivers sucks

Seriously every time I update my ATI drivers I end up spending 2 days fixing all the things that went wrong because of it.  You think I'd have learned by now, I've been using their crap since 2005.  Next time I'm going with Nvida.

Well for mining ATI ones are the best ones... with nvidia you will be looking into half performance (using CUDA vs Open CL) I bet at least half of the sales of ATI are thanks to cryptocurrenties :p
