Should i build everything again from scratch?
I get 25 sol/s out of a 6700… maybe thats the max on that processor as you have the 6700k?
Any nheqminers with xenoncats solver with stratum support for Windows available?
Also a quick question. I’m using nheqminer 0.2 for flypool on a PC with 8GBx2 dual channel and getting 27 H/s on a 6700K and only 13-18 H/s on a 6700K but this machine only has 1 8GB stick. Is dual channel memory the reason for the hash increase??
Under Ubuntu 16.04, I built nheqminer per the instructions, in the main folder, alongside the zcash folder. When I try to run the miner, I get a nheqminer command not found. No compile errors. Suspect a path problem. Should I have built the miner in another folder or what am I doing wrong? Thx
It should be in the “build” directory you created. I have a ‘bin’ directory in my user “folder” and include that in my PATH environment variable. I move the miners I build to my user “bin” directory.
After building the miner, I ran the nhequminer command, in the same terminal window as the build and that’s when I got the error message.
In the “build” directory: ./nheqminer …
OK, Thank you very much
@sarath-hotspot I was thinking I’d mine directly to that address to donate. Is that ok? Is anyone already mining that address to an anonymous pool (address only user/login)? My gear is pretty weak. If I could add my shares to someone else’s so there’s nothing wasted and it gets to you that’d be swell.
i have 6700K 4Ghz overcloked at 4,2 Ghz and 32GB of Memory…
@sarath-hotspot What is the optimum number of threads to run? I have a Intel Xeon with 8 cores and 2 threads for each core and 64 GiB RAM.
Should I run with a t value of 8 or 16?
75% the number if threads is a good place to start. +/1 thread from there you can test too
@sarath-hotspot: Here is the reading from terminal on my pc -
[13:51:47][0x00007f50626c9740] Speed [300 sec]: 5.96667 H/s, 11.0867 Sol/s
here is the corresponding reading from zcash.flypool:
current hash rate =8.3H/s; Avg hash rate= 6.9H/s; valid shares = 8 (100%); invalid shares =0 (0%)
Why is there a difference between H/s on the terminal and on zcash.flypool? Is this common for everyone?
here is the hardware details:
Intel(R) Core™ i5-5200U CPU @ 2.20GHz
CPU(s): 4
On-line CPU(s) list: 0-3
Thread(s) per core: 2
Core(s) per socket: 2
Socket(s): 1
Linux (Ubuntu 14.04 / 16.04) Build CPU_XENONCAT:
Open terminal and run the following commands:
sudo apt-get install cmake build-essential libboost-all-dev
git clone -b Linux https://github.com/nicehash/nheqminer.git
cd nheqminer/cpu_xenoncat/Linux/asm/
sh assemble.sh
cd ../../../Linux_cmake/nheqminer_cpu
cmake .
make -j $(nproc)
after this how to connect to suprnova pool?
hey CCQ, i moved my HDD downstairs since i got it working, but now i’m receiving the following error
user:~/nheqminer/nheqminer/build$ ./nheqminer -l us1-zcash.flypool.org:3333 -u t1MHPApnruz5g7HLin29r8UDfQJ3vAx3qUy.rig1
Equihash CPU Miner for NiceHash v0.1c
Thanks to Zcash developers for providing most of the code
Special thanks to tromp for providing optimized CPU equihash solver
Setting log level to 2
Illegal instruction (core dumped)
Any idea bro?
Hi Folks,
I have installed the xenoncat miner on a system with Intel e5345 processors, that only supports SSE2, not AVX/AVX2. The benchmark shows 0 sols/s. Anyone had similar issues?
No, it works on my old i5-750 which doesn’t even have SSE2. Make sure you are running it via the same path in your build instruction which should be
~/nheqminer/Linux_cmake/nheqminer_cpu/nheqminer_cpu
Hi zawy,
I compiled the xenoncat “version”, so my path is
~/nheqminer/Linux_cmake/nheqminer_cpu_xenoncat/nheqminer_cpu_xenoncat,
but i do execute it using this path. Strange that the miner can even join
the nicehash pool and receices the challenges but does not provide any
solutions…no errors whatsoever is reported.
Use nanopool to see if it’s the same. I got 0 sol/s at times, but I can’t remember. I think it was a bad network connection.
