is it possible to integrate ethminer?
-
I've running pimp with ethminer which gives me better hashrate without devfees which always cause troubles for rig with 6 gpu's. I thought is it possible to integrate ethminer to state so I can run it with pimp command?
Thx for help.
-
Hi there, ethminer is not very good in the linux version. There are a few miners which work well on pimp there, and the trick is to use the miner configuration as well as your gputool --config. Can you share hard numbers?
-
I also prefer using ethminer to claymore and I fully endorse this request! I used to be able to compile my own ethminer from https://github.com/ethereum-mining/ethminer but now I find that I am unable to compile this anymore. I really would like to resolve it, even if it means compiling an alternative repo, I am really not fond at all of Claymore and I don't want to use it. Please, someone help.

Than take one from releases https://github.com/ethereum-mining/ethminer/releases
Should work
-
@Paz sure, I have "frankenstein" farm ))) So it took some time to let it work together:
2 x R9 290
3 x HD 7950
1 x RX 460 (for fun)
So, with Claymore I am not using dual as far as slowing hashrate, and on modde -1 I have around 128 MH/s with devfee enabled and ethminer gives 131 stable with same pool without devfee so what the reason to have Claymore?
-
@Paz The only benefit of Claymore I've found is that you can run some cards on Ethash and other on Equihash at the same time

i started working with various miners and i ended up on claymore because it sustained the highest hashrate of the other miners. I figure the 1% was fine to give away since it was mining better than 5% over the others

musicoin is a portal for awarding 1 MC per play for music produced. i have produced for many years so i started to put my back catalog on their portal. the idea is great about putting value in a blockchain for small producers like myself. you have to be a producer though and be able to prove your identity before they give you a musician account. otherwise MC is minable.

So good !!! We have ethminer in pimp now )))) Thx dev team )))))

We are still working on integrating it fully, but its moving along nice. Right now there are some limitations.
NVIDIA only works with CUDA 9+, right now I would not recommend anyone upgrade CUDA, the 9.0 and 9.1 will pull in 390.30, which will break things. Just wait a couple days for the NVIDIA repos to sort out with the right packages, or wait for us to release a point release with the drivers and libraries properly integrated with the kernel.
AMD works with pretty much anything.
NVIDIA + AMD only works if you have CUDA 9+ & only have one AMD card in the rig. Solve for that is also coming.
NVIDIA cards need careful attention for tuning to optimize performance, more to come on that.

Maybe it is just me... but the hashrate reported for my ethminer process is shown as Kh/s and not Mh/s. My rig runs at 103Mh/s, but minerfarm shows it as 0.010Mh/s and the miner.farm website reports it as 103Kh/s. When I look at the console, I see that ethminer is reporting 103Mh/s as expected. It looks like somewhere the hashrate is interpreted incorrectly by a factor 1000.
I checked the API:
echo '{"id":17,"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"miner_getstat1"}' | netcat localhost 4028
{"id":17,"jsonrpc":"2.0","result":["0.14.0.dev1","612","103623;1900;0","27116;25986;27600;22920","0;0;0","off;off;off;off","64;44; 74;40; 79;44; 65;33","lb.geo.pirlpool.eu:8002","37;0;0;0"]}
It shows the hashrate in Kh/s, but I guess minerfarm assumes it is h/s??
-
I meant minerfarm shows it as 0.10Mh/s :-) miner.farm website show it as 103Kh/s :-)
-
I noticed it has been reported already... looking forward to the fix. Keep up the good work :-D

hello everybody, how to set fan control when ethminer using? i tried it and gpu get hot very quick, when mining with sgminer the tem of gpus is 48-50 grad but with ethminer its 70 !!! any ideas?
-
We have an open issue for the reporting in Kh/s vs Mh/s. It will be resolved shortly. Thank you for reporting the issue, and for your patience as we fix the interfaces.
-
ph75,
Use gputool to control the fans.

Please let us know if you have any questions or issues with using it. There are some edge cases that have minor issues. Feel free to join the discord group for more immediate help while implementing gputool.

@anjin Newbie to pimp. Just Ran apt-get upgrade and later learned about pimpup. Pimpup hangs looking for gputool.notbroken. Is this related to CUDA updates breaking things? Is there a recovery or should I reimage to baseline 2.5?
-
No. The hanging pimpup is related to the linux provided update_pciids failing. Please see more about this here:

Good luck and Happy Mining!
