any hint how to use API? never even tried it...
just point my browser to api port ?
Add
--api-bind
to your command line of ccminer, then use a telnet program (putty if using windows) to telnet to 127.0.0.1 port 4068 (default setting). When it connects type:
threads
and hit enter.  A bunch of info will spit out, the bit you are interested in is "I=".  If you have multiple cards, you will have multiple I's (along with multiples of all the other information).  You can set different intensities per card with -i 21.8,22
If you cannot connect via telnet try:
--api-bind :4068
(example: --api-bind 192.168.2.2:4068) then try telneting to port 4068

Any hint how to see the default value of -i ?
If the default runs (ie no -i), turn on the api feature of ccminer, and then check the api with command "threads".

Another point is that different cards have different intensity limits so if you have different cards in the same rig
you will have to set it to a value that works on all cards which may not be optimum on some cards.
You can use comma separation to set different intensities per card. ie -i 27.2,25,24.9

SOLO-MINING FEATHERCOIN--

I was reading in Ghostlander's thread about the difficulty they have had with the FeatherCoin wallet.  Apparently, wallet v0.9.3.1 is the recommended stable version, as versions prior to and after (v11.x has been recalled) may cause blockchain problems.  If a miner is to solo-mine, he must use wallet v0.9.3.1 to avoid this problem, and to receive proper payouts.

What I came across is this:

" ghostlander REGULAR MEMBER 10 days ago

Solo mining works through Getwork. It’s broken in SGminer still. NSGminer works fine. "

Ghostlander is referring to his special version of SGminer, NSGminer (neoscrypt  SGminer).  It is an OpenCL miner that is AMD oriented, but reputed to work with nVidia cards as well.  Ghostlander knows the workings of the FeatherCoin wallet, and also the PhoenixCoin wallet.

Whatever the code must be in NSGminer, it may fix the problems with solo-mining neoscrypt coins that CCminer has.  I am hoping a good coder could look into the code for a good patch.       --scryptr

The "--broken-neo-wallet" switch doesn't fix the issue for solo-mining neoscrypt coins?

My blake2s is doing 2080-2100MASH on the 980ti with oc.

There is a bug in original kernal. I keep getting share has already been sendt error messages.

Isn't that due to checks_dups being automatically set to true for blake2s

I added some more decred hash @ yiimp.ccminer.org 7 blocks found in 24hours now. (150GHASH)
You should join to support opensource development. (5% fee, but low rejects and stable payouts)
I've been on yiimp for 24-hours with Decred. Here is my acceptance rate: "accepted: 3713/3719 (99.84%)" 

For those that don't check Epsylon3 git release page, his decred address is DsdYLRUyTF7QKouD3LmFviZJ9dGzwd8DAwq .

Any help please ? I have 2 750ti on a asrock 81 BTC pro mb ..with 16 gigs ram and an Intel 2 core g1850 cpu. When mining all is great. Now I add 1  

gigabyte 980ti too and the cpu is showing 99% without mining...when trying to mine it goes to 100% and the hashrates on all cards are way down by

90% then nothing. On my 6 rig 750ti the same exact setup the cpu is showing 10% while hashing quark algo. In the Performance monitor

evgavoltmeter, 2 of them, running at 47% each = 94% of the cpu at IDOL! Using EVGA precision x.  Any help please? Using sp r69 too.  thx  Smiley
Driver issue (i.e. time for an update)?

found a good launch config on the ACX 750ti: -l T15x1. With n-factor 16, I get ~ 310 H/s with tpruvot's miner.  Tried same settings with sp_'s and it errors out.
Code:
[2015-10-17 05:30:33] GPU #2: Err 77: an illegal memory access was encountered (salsa_kernel.cu:870)
[2015-10-17 05:30:33] GPU #2: CUDA error `an illegal memory access was encountered` while executing the kernel.
[2015-10-17 05:30:33] GPU #2: cudaError 77 (an illegal memory access was encountered) calling 'cudaMemcpyToSymbol(pdata, host_pdata, 20*sizeof(uint32_t), 0, cudaMemcpyHostToDevice)' (keccak.cu line 471)
Same here.  It seems to have been a problem since the original import.

What would you folks suggest for command line running lyra2rev2 with a 980 primary and 960 secondary.  I have been doing pretty well just a default settings, but would like to squeeze a little more out of them.

LAUNCH LINE FOR LYRA2v2--

My launch line follows:

       ""ccminer -a lyra2v2 -i 15.7 -C --cpu-priority 5 -o stratum+tcp://pool.com:port -u uname.wrkr1 -p x -b 0.0.0.0:4068"

The intensity "-i" is adjustable, 15.7 is as high as any of my hardware can go.  The cpu-mining flag "-C" helps, and the cpu-priority of "5" is the top setting.  The "-b" flag enables monitoring by the application program interface (api).  I get about 9.5Mh/s with my GTX 970 cards.

--scryptr
Dragonslayer: since you are running two types of cards I believe you should be able to use two different intensities for them, utilizing -i x,y.  so instead of just 15.7 as above, something like 16,15.7 (or whenever the memory failures start on ccminer start, just ratchet it down a .1 or .2).  You should see the different intensities being used via the api.

My EVGA ssc 950 is only doing 8,5 MHASH on the standard clocks in quark.
The 960 strix is doing 10,7 MHASH (standard clocks)
Thanks !
The 960 or more 750Ti cards seem to be most bang for the buck then.

Prices here where i live:

EVGA 750Ti FTW: 180usd
Asus Strix 950: 219usd
Asus Strix 960: 279usd

A few pages back bathrobehero was saying the 970 was offering the best bang for him.  Though that could be regional.


Another offtopic question: what is your most profitable card to get depending on your region?

Edit: where I live it seems the 970 has kicked off the 750 Ti off its throne a while ago.

I'm mostly curious about the significance of regional differences. So should I wait for the 980/980Ti cards to decrease in price or should I just stuck with the prices I'm given.

-Stop mining on disconnect's to save power.(pallas / flipclip)
Just tried this new feature. Works like a charm! Stops using gpu and continues to work after connection is available again ))
Will send some beers to pallas / flipclip later ))
\
Send my beers to Pallas.  The only thing I did was re-merge Pallas' "network_fail_flag" to master.  It was taken out originally because Pallas wanted to make sure it wasn't the reason for the solo-mining failure.  It wasn't Smiley

PCIe SLOT SPLITTER--

They go for $35-40 now.  It is powered, and the graphic cards must be also by a powered USB riser and possibly a PCIe power line depending on the graphic card model..  There are models of this splitter card that sell for more than the price of a motherboard, too.  Good luck!       --scryptr

Something like: http://amfeltec.com/products/flexible-x4-pci-express-4-way-splitter/

Pretty sure there aren't any. People just seeing possible income and not taking into account if they start mining on a low difficulty coin with a lot of power, it'll just crash things.
like the sya coin?
sia?

yes.

I compete with these. Don't want or need to sell anything:

The chinese farms have free elecricity now...

how do they get free electricity sp? ...

#crysx

I think it's surplus from the power plants.
Plus they are supported by the government.
I've seen a guy with a "personal" 80Kw hydro power plant... do you have a river in the backyard? :-)

Hi,

I'm a newbie to mining with nVidia GPUs and would like some help getting mine working.. I've had some experience with sgminer but couldn't get ccminer to work.. I'm mainly trying to mine VertCoin (Lyra2REv2) on NiceHash but I never get any accepted shares and my GPU load is very low.. I'm on Windows 10 right now with the latest driver and with the latest copy of the executable. Any help would be really appreciated.

-- theLosers106

Would help to know the hardware used. This ccminer only works with maxwell cards.
Cards below Maxwell will only idle after load of the software.

Code:
The NVIDIA GeForce 820M (or GT 820M) is an entry-level DirectX 12 compatible graphics card announced in January 2014.
Its core is based on the 28nm GF117 chip (Fermi architecture) and is equipped with 64-bit DDR3 memory.

I see.. That's the problem.. so my new 960 should work with this ccminer right? If I still want to run ccminer on my 820m, which fork of the ccminer should I use or is it not possible?
It looks like the 820M is compute version 2.1.  I don't believe any ccminer fork uses 2.1.
The 960 is compute version 5.2 so will work with multiple ccminer forks.

where do you see these "git numbers" ? git is not svn...
It is from github at the very top of the page where it says "#### commits ## branches ## releases ..." an example would be from your fork "git 566" is "commit fade2b74".  And yes it is very confusing.  Wink

Phoenixcoin has low diff and the blockchain should download fairly quick for the wallet.

I find blocks in a matter of mins. after starting r54, r55 & r56 gives more boooo's than r54 that I get none in.
-i value needs to be low -i 10 is a good starting point for solo mining phoenixcoin.
at 300+ kh/s I find a block in about every 15 mins most of the time on a single GTX960.

Thanks.  Looks like neoscrypt has a 168byte data size?  We're passing 128 to that hack hex2bin() function, so it fails.

It looks like that bit of neoscrypt code was changed at commit: 43f4d827a032f1d89da5c957b1e823d7f54d60af (not sure if that will help).
