Miner- SILENTARMY v5

@reb0rn21

10% then its 2.5%

Well if you are connecting to two pools at once it looks like he his hitting you for two fees

DevFee: ZEC: Stratum - connecting to 'zec-eu1.nanopool.org' <185.71.66.31> port 6666

I haven’t investigated though or why you would mine to two pools

[alexfox]

Yep.
I dont want use Claymore.
I want Silentarmy or Zogminer, but i cant…

But this miner (silentamy v3 kernell) works good (without this error), but have no stratum support,
Life is not fair.

[mrb]

@fatsailor Ok this is really weird. I have never seen that. When in double, uninstall and re-install the AMDGPU-PRO driver…

[cryptomined]

you made the best miner! even better than claymore, more stable and no dev fee

did claymore just take your solver and wrap it for himself and then put a fee on it? the hashrate would seem to indicate so wouldn’t it?

@mrb

@lexele GPU memory usage has decreased between SILENTARMY v2 and v3: from 1.7GB per instance down to 1.2GB per instance. You can reduce it further to 0.6GB per instance by changing NR_ROWS_LOG as documented in the README.md.

1.2gb per instance seems fine to run a third instance with 4gb, but unfortunately it crashed my rig will try again after turning off lightdm.

@voxelot

Probably. I worked on an equihash solver and I don’t see a better algorithm than xenoncat proposal that everyone including mrb is using (from what I can tell with hashtab and slots/bucket collision). Of course there could be but surprising that cloymores rates are almost the same. But idk the guys in the claymore thread are bowing to him like he is a god so maybe he doesn’t have to obey the same math we do.

well even VRAM usage is very close to silent army v2…

[felixbrucker]

nvidia suport would be great
cant wait for v4

It’s running with 3 instances, but it’s slower, quelle désillusion!

@vjensen

@opticz_akz Did you use the 15.12 driver on Ubuntu 14.04?

No, I am running 16.04.

Uninstalled and reinstalled AMDGPU-PRO.

clinfo still finds the R9 Nano and prints it’s information. silentarmy --list still only lists the CPU.

I’m running this on a Supermicro MB with Ubuntu 16.04 server, headless, AMDGPU-PRO amdgpu-pro-16.40-348864, and AMD-APP-SDKInstaller-v3.0.130.136-GA-linux64.

nheqminer_AMD also does not see the R9.

I so don’t want to have to use Windoze.

[dlehenky]

Have you tried amdgpu-pro-16.30? 16.40 is brand new and probably has not received much testing with the various miners. Btw, the basic AMD drivers install an OpenCL environment; all you need from the SDK are the header files so you can compile from source. The SDK confuses things, because it creates links to the SDK version of OpenCL, which is not always aligned with the libraries shipped with the drivers, so it can cause problems.

[mrb]

@fatsailor @dlehenky I have extensively tested 16.40 and it works as well as 16.30 on my 64-bit Ubunu 16.04 headless server. @fatsailor can you report the outpuf of:

type clinfo dpkg -S /usr/bin/clinfo
ldd /usr/bin/clinfo dpkg -S /usr/lib/libOpenCL.so.1
grep -H . /etc/OpenCL/vendors/* strace -o strace.log ./sa-solver --list

(and send me strace.log)

[dlehenky]

@mrb Great work! Linux open source - perfect. I was wondering if you had considered using multiple command queues in one OpenCL context to run multiple concurrent kernels, rather than starting up multiple solver processes? It might improve the concurrency, and it would be a bit more straightforward from an OpenCL runtime and GPU driver standpoint. Just a thought.

Tried to install silentarmy on Ubuntu 15.10 with latest fglrx driver (as indicated).
silentminer folder was made.
However if I try to
cd silentminer
silentminer --list

#it says that there is no such command as silentminer.
Same if I cd ~, then try
silentminer --list

I used everything (addon) from n1koo

What could be the problem?
Thanks, I really don’t want to install windows on that machine

[alexfox]

**./**silentminer --list
dot & slash

[bio]

Of course! Thanks
high level programmers don’t show it by default (maybe this is an explanation as it shows simply silentminer on github) and I did not know that it is an executable.
For example, aticonfig does not need ./

Thanks, mrb!!!
R9 380 showing 26-27sol/s on Ubuntu 15.10 without core and mem adjustment.
plus above 9 sol on four core AMD CPU (CPU miner). NIce.

[dlehenky]

That’s because aticonfig is located in a directory that’s part of your PATH environment variable, while the location of silentarmy is not. Btw, there are 2 executables that make up the miner: silentarmy and sa-solver, so remember to move/copy them both to, say, a “bin” directory in your user directory (folder) that’s also added to your PATH variable so it is found with using “./” wherever you are.

[funnyboy027]

How to set custom core and mem clock on ubuntu? I have RX470 but it’s not stable at original clock

[bio]

Thanks, but i did not get it (fully).
there is a silentarmy folder in my home dir and both sa-solver and silentarmy (app) are there.

I guess, make took care of everything, right?
