I've been away from the scene for a while although still check in on the forum occasionally. Can someone tell me why home miners like this require you to only use a specified pool? Can you not point it to any pool you choose??
I have the Nano 3 and the Mini 3 you can configure any pool you like on those. On those 2 units you have the ability to configure 1 primary pool and 2 failover pools of your choosing.
One would assume that the Q is no different.
Nice to hear. Still can't justify the pricetag but at least its a viable option for the future

Had the same appear on my smarthub a couple of days ago. Ignored it as when it changed screens it went all garbled. I just restarted it and didnt give it a second thought.

I'm going to take a gander and say we've got to update the SmartHub - any info available on where to download the new img?
I was wondering the same thing. Seems like a fairly substantial update for the UI that IAmGPIO has to sort out with all the newly controllable aspect of this stick. Hopefully he won't keep us waiting too long
Working on it right now. I only got my hands on an A1 last night...!
No secret squirrel pre production unit sent before anyone else knew they existed?
Hope the code writing goes well. Looking forward to getting the new image then hopefully ordering a few to get on my smarthub and retire the Ferraris.

New firmware available. Check the 4th post down on this thread.
I’m going to assume you need to put the details in again for miners, freq, pool details (if different from default)?
Another Update.
Woke up this morning and RAM usage had dropped down to 23%. Didnt have time to check anything until now. RAM usage up to 30% but cgminer has restarted. Hub remained on as the counter is now at 25 Days etc.
So not sure what the mem leak is or what happened before to start this investigation. But so far it seems to be keeping itself in check.

Just thought I would update this.
Its been 9Days 6Hours 48mins since it restarted and is currently on 67.7% ram usage.
Still on the same instance of cgminer and its definitely cgminer ram usage thats increasing.
I'll keep monitoring and report back in a few days.

Cheers, please do.
Is there anything one app/process that is taking up a a large chunk of this RAM?
Only cgminer. On TOP its showing 45.3% mem usage.
Current stats are:-
74.3% RAM after 13day 6 Hours and change.

Thanks for the reply GPIO. I've been monitoring it today and noticed that it is the cgminer "file" casuing the slow increase in ram usage. Yesterday on intitial restart they were at 2.1%. Today they are at 3.9%.
Still can't fathom why though. It hasn't restarted, still the same instance (767 after the restart) on screen as it was before, all sticks running as requested.
More than happy to flash the SD Card with your current .img file to give it a try. Just means I'll have to go and change the Price Ticker currency again
I am happy to wait until the updates aswell. Its simply issue that a restart solves once a week really.

The current image I have is no different to the one you have, except the one I have may have Doom embedded in the web interface.... somewhere...
.Aside from that, there are no implemement changes as yet that I am ina place to release. i have made changes but its all very piece-meal at the moment. I will keep probing and see if I can figure out what is causing the memory usage to creep up.
oooh Doom in the web interface. Sounds like I should look for a little symbol on the screen like the film "The Net"
I'll carry on as is and wait for the update(s). Like I said its only a restart once a week and I seem to be the only one affected at the moment. I may just let it run and see if it does max-out at some point and stays running.

Ok so running HTOP has revealed a couple of things that are strange to me (not being linux proficient and all that).
I have:-
15x "gekkoscreentrimmed4.py" running using 13.7% mem each
34 x cgminer config files running using 17.5% mem each
All those are highlighted green which I assume means they are running. (I know the math doesn't add up if you add all the percentages together).
I may well be looking at the wrong thing though.
The BTC price updater scripts/files are minimal usage compared to the lot listed above.

Ok so its pretty much been 2days since the restart and I’ve noticed that the RAM usage is steadily increasing. Its rough 4% per day.
On the initial restart it was 40% and now its 48%. CPU usage seems about the same, anywhere from 10-15%.
I can only assume that cgminer is restarting in the background and increasing the ram usage each time. As for the cause….I don’t know, maybe one of my Compac-Fs is slowly giving up.

So odd thing happening at the moment.
Came home to find the green light of the front flashing and hashrate steadily decreasing.
SSh into it and its responding very slowly. A good minute to got the login screen, then another minute or so to get passed it.

The cgminer install supports all Gekko devices. Power comes from 12V 6-pin or barrel like the regular hubs and Terminus pod miners.
How much power is needed for this hub?
The hub itself takes a few watts to run. Im running 6xCompac-Fs at 520m and two fans from the hub and thats drawing 98w from the wall
