Post your config. It’s hard to say without it
Also post your - linux kernel and drivers version

63

Can someone post his whole config?

Кто нибудь может показать полный конфиг?

у меня главная проблема это
[2018-10-20 21:24:33] : File is empty or too short - config.txt.

  • GPU configuration. You should play around with intensity and worksize as the fastest settings will vary.
  • index - GPU index number usually starts from 0
  • intensity - Number of parallel GPU threads (nothing to do with CPU threads)
  • worksize - Number of local GPU threads (nothing to do with CPU threads)
  • affine_to_cpu - This will affine the thread to a CPU. This can make a GPU miner play along nicer with a CPU miner.
  • strided_index - switch memory pattern used for the scratch pad memory
  •             2 = chunked memory, chunk size is controlled by 'mem_chunk'

  •                 required: intensity must be a multiple of worksize

  •             1 or true  = use 16byte contiguous memory per thread, the next memory block has offset of intensity blocks

  •                         (for cryptonight_v8 and monero it is equal to strided_index = 0)

  •             0 or false = use a contiguous block of memory per thread
  • mem_chunk - range 0 to 18: set the number of elements (16byte) per chunk
  •             this value is only used if 'strided_index' == 2

  •             element count is computed with the equation: 2 to the power of 'mem_chunk' e.g. 4 means a chunk of 16 elements(256byte)
  • unroll - allow to control how often the POW main loop is unrolled; valid range [1;128) - for most OpenCL implementations it must be a power of two.
  • comp_mode - Compatibility enable/disable the automatic guard around compute kernel which allows
  •             to use a intensity which is not the multiple of the worksize.

  •             If you set false and the intensity is not multiple of the worksize the miner can crash:

  •             in this case set the intensity to a multiple of the worksize or activate comp_mode.

  • Thread configuration for each thread. Make sure it matches the number above.
  • low_power_mode - This can either be a boolean (true or false), or a number between 1 to 5. When set to true,
  •              this mode will double the cache usage, and double the single thread performance. It will

  •              consume much less power (as less cores are working), but will max out at around 80-85% of

  •              the maximum performance. When set to a number N greater than 1, this mode will increase the

  •              cache usage and single thread performance by N times.
  • no_prefetch - Some systems can gain up to extra 5% here, but sometimes it will have no difference or make
  •              things slower.
  • asm - Allow to switch to a assembler version of cryptonight_v8; allowed value [auto, off, intel_avx, amd_avx]
  •                - auto: xmr-stak will automatically detect the asm type (default)

  •                - off: disable the usage of optimized assembler

  •                - intel_avx: supports Intel cpus with avx instructions e.g. Xeon v2, Core i7/i5/i3 3xxx, Pentium G2xxx, Celeron G1xxx

  •                - amd_avx: supports AMD cpus with avx instructions e.g. AMD Ryzen 1xxx and 2xxx series
  • affine_to_cpu - This can be either false (no affinity), or the CPU core number. Note that on hyperthreading
  •              systems it is better to assign threads to physical cores. On Windows this usually means selecting

  •              even or odd numbered cpu numbers. For Linux it will be usually the lower CPU numbers, so for a 4

  •              physical core CPU you should select cpu numbers 0-3.
  • On the first run the miner will look at your system and suggest a basic configuration that will work,

my hiveos says xmr-stak exited,waiting to cooldown a bit

file is empty or too short - config.txt

has anyone has same problem as me?

im on 0.5-79

напиши мне в telegram: @helpBiosEditor помогу всё настроить.

@barry8212 - is this latest post working? I am struggling too :frowning:

70

What overclocking settings are you using?

71

Nope i am still not mining XMR

72

how is the config? i use single thread works fine but double threan doesn’t work

73

Hi guys

Could someone that allready mine Monero after the fork, please post screenshoots of how to set this up, i still can`t mine Monero :frowning:

For those who knows how to do this, please help…

Jan-Erik, Norway

74

what is you GPU? i can mine both in 580 570 550, but best performanace still in 570 580

Привет всем! Пробую на XMR-Stack 2.5 fireice-uk запустить криптонайт-хэвен под хайв на картах 1063 с параметрами:

“threads” : 21, “blocks” : 36,
“bfactor” : 0, “bsleep” : 0,
“affine_to_cpu” : false, “sync_mode” : 3, “mem_mode” : 1,

майнер ругается Error: out of memory
как так? 21 * 36 * 2 = 1512 мб это половина от набортной памяти!!! Кто какие параметры наилучшие подобрал для 1063 для CN Heavy / Heaven???
