How can I do 75%/45 minutes pool 0 , 25%/15 minutes pool 1 , is that round robin.

You cannot.

That degree of control no one has been able to prove to me there are any circumstances that it serves any useful purpose, so I never bothered to implement such tight scheduling over pool share submission. Optimising your share submission to not lose work and/or sharing to minimise variance are all you need.

This would be the only real reason, I guess:

https://bt.irlbtc.com/view/78031.0

In other words, if you are mining at two pools and one is large and one is small, you actually might be increasing you variance (vs just mining at the large pool alone) if you mine at them 50/50.

But to be super useful, you'd want something like "BALANCE" combined with some API options to change the ratios on the fly so that some outside script could periodically use pool APIs to determine total hashrate and then use cgminer API to tweak the ratios appropriately.

seems like i have to go back to bfgminer Sad

tried cm1 with --icarus-options with different configs baud:4:1 baud:2:1 baud:1:1 and still crashes... it seems its the dynamic bitstream...

oh well... thanks for the efforts... when i figure out how to change the bitstream to makomk it should be ok to come back Sad

Yep there are multiple CM1 bitstreams.
Since I don't have a CM1 I've not tried to handle the non-Icarus bitstreams.
Send me a CM1 and I'll get it working ...

That is an offer that someone should take advantage of.

The idea of someone/something releasing a new mining device and then expecting a developer of the code to run that mining device to BUY and then develop the code to support it.........

WTF is the thinking behind that?

2 questions when running under linux.

~~1. Is there a kill signal to stop cgminer gracefully?~~
2. If i run cgminer with a config file, does sending the "restart" command via the API make cgminer re-read the config file if its been edited by hand before restarting?

Edit:-
just figured out answer to 1 myself. A normal kill on cgminer pid made it stop gracefully.

Yes with 3.1.1 you need to tell it what they are.

If they are AMU then
--icarus-timing 2.9761=100 --icarus-options 115200:1:1

If they are something else ... ?

1) Press 'Q', or: start cgminer with --api-listen --api-allow w:127.0.0.1 and java API quit or echo -n quit | nc 127.0.0.1 4028 ; echo or ... etc
2) Yes but you are better to run it in a loop and use 'quit' rather than 'restart'

They are USB block erupters. Everything looks good for a while, and then suddenly a few of them start showing really high hash rates.

Yeah I saw that happen back with 3.1.1 but in my case it was disabling them and re-enabling them in the API that caused it.
I guess with 3.1.1 it can happen there also if the device gets SICK and then recovers.
Not sure how else it can happen.

Would you mind trying current git?
I can get current git to work on both USB2 and USB3 on my desktop without any problems,
Just on my RPi it still stalls on the AMU and ICA (but not BLT or BAJ - even in USB3 those 2 work on my RPi)

Hello ckolivas, I would like to know if and when you do another version to the Avalon firmware and cgminer would you able to update and have some remote control via connecting via other computers not on network like remote control assistance. Also the ability to control fan speed individually with maybe a auto option built in and a slider option to move up and down and speed goes up or down on the fly.

Rough control could be done with:

Close enough.

I had issues getting rpi detect ztex thru my particular hubs (Belkin F4u022v). Worked after i added the following toboot/cmdline.txt

I don't remember the exact errors i was seeing, but i recall it seeing some error code in dmesg when plugging in the ztex.

#11320

How difficult would it be to allow several instances of cgminer in the same system?

Why would I want to do that? I am building a "Condo" system where miners are hosted in a remote location. I want to give each user full control of his mining unit, which may be only part of a boxed system. For example, an Avalon box can have as many as 4 hardware modules, and each module can have 8 hashing units. A user in the condo system can own as small as a single hashing unit, and I want her to be able to launch her own instance of cgminer on the same box where other users are running their own instance of cgminer. Each cgminer instance is associated with a user ID, and that user ID is in turn associated with particular hashing unit(s). The association of a user ID to hashing unit(s) is done by another subsystem, so all that really needs to happen is to allow cgminer to accept a command-line parameter that indicates which hashing unit(s) it will use exclusively.

Each cgminer instance should be separately addressable in the RPC protocol/API.

I believe this requires substantial code changes (may be changes to both cgminer itself and the Avalon drivers), so I will give a hashing unit in the condo I am building to whoever can get this done, and yes, it's OK for it to be open source.

Edit: Please PM me if you would be interested in implementing this project.

The new stabletoken ROKS can be used to pay for everyday stuff you buy.
