psychocrypt commented 6 years ago

could it be that you need cryptonight_lite? Has the coin already forked?

AnonJunkie commented 6 years ago

Yes it has , they released their own miner but it getting invalid shares on nvidia, I was hoping your update would include support for it.

please post the log of the first 30 seconds of the miner start. From the website I can see that the fork is in a few days

psychocrypt commented 6 years ago

You are right the network has already forked. Never the less please post the log.

psychocrypt commented 6 years ago

I have read some articles that the coin will fork to 4MB scratchpad. Please provide some links where we can clearly see which algorithm is used.

yegmine commented 6 years ago

I'm using the IPBC miner they released for the new algo, forked from XMRstak, I have a feeling issue might be applicable to both.

I'm having the same issue as anonjunkie, in my case at best i'm getting 85% success rate submitting on Nv 1060 3gbs, and at worst 0% on my 6950 rigs - it took me a day before I realized the shares weren't being accepted.

It kept saying "found new block" with the occasional "connection actively refused" idling, reconnect, and the cards were still hot, it wasn't until almost 2 days later when i hit R that i realized i had 0% success.

I had the miner set to verbose 4 thinking that would include something as important as none of the shares being accepted. One would hope that 4 would include a print of the same as hitting "R" every so often, the hash rate is less important as the %/# accepted by pool.

Maybe a feature request would be print a warning if the % of shares accepted vs. rejected falls below a certain threshold (90%?) if print is set to 4.

Thanks for all your hard work, all these forks must be hell. I'll try to get a log up here for you.

psychocrypt commented 6 years ago

We can not give support for a forked miner. Please ooen an issue is the reposetory of the other miner. If you have issues with our miner please post the pools.txt and the full log (really all lines) of the first 30 seconds.

yegmine commented 6 years ago

another one that just forked and is directing miners to select "monero7" as the algo is Graft; having that as a coin option (alias to monero7) in the config file would be super cool.

yegmine commented 6 years ago

I don't want support, its a generic feature request:

To print a warning if the % of shares accepted vs. rejected falls below a certain threshold (90%?) if print is set to 4.

psychocrypt commented 6 years ago

please also download the latst version of xmr-stak. we released yesterday veraion 2.4.3 https://github.com/fireice-uk/xmr-stak/releases

yegmine commented 6 years ago

or if you included the IPBC algo into your miner, you could get the Dev Fee, rather than sluff it off.

psychocrypt commented 6 years ago

do not mix issues. This is not a feature request issue this ahould solve the invalid shares. pease open a new issue for this independent feture request

yegmine commented 6 years ago

isn't it similar to Sumo? also they incorporated your changes into their build.

Also the only reason I switch from yours was after the monero7 fork, I could mine Ok, but your devfees were trying to mine the old monero algo and being rejected, causing the miner to idle for minutes before reconnecting.

yegmine commented 6 years ago

or maybe I should just use a different miner rather that get attitude trying to help you.

psychocrypt commented 6 years ago

The latest version 2.4.3 fixed some issues with fork coins. From the fork it looks like they use cryptonigh_lite_v7.

2010phenix commented 6 years ago

@psychocrypt they use cryptonigh_lite_v7 with XOR someone build from xmr-stak support: https://github.com/IndeedMiners/xmr-aeon-stak/commit/d681d259a149d6f3560507680db5a0a471bc5c5f

AnonJunkie commented 6 years ago

indeed miner get reject shares as well with nvidia, its been days the devs of IPBC say "their working on it"...

psychocrypt commented 6 years ago

IPBC use not the default cryptonight_lite_v7 therefore xmr-stak is not supporting ipbc. I am working on the implementation. I have it already available but will do some more tests before I create a pull request.

btw: with the upcoming implementation from me xmr-stack with NVIDIA is more than 15% faster than the fork from the ipbc devs ;-)

Captmario commented 6 years ago

Actually IPBC's own miner is fork of Xmr stak... All you need to do to prevent invalid shares is to replace nvidia cuda backend file from their older version 1 to 1.2 and you will be fine (j am assuming you are using nvidia card)

psychocrypt commented 6 years ago

IPBC supported will be added with PR #1489

psychocrypt commented 6 years ago

is merged
