Are you CPU or GPU mining xmr on the mac? I'd be very surprised if the iPad CPU was faster than the Mac CPU for this…
CPU mining wouldn't cause that kind of lag but it's unavoidable GPU mining XMR.
What kind of ASIC are you using? I'm guessing that because that speed is so slow for Bitcoin mining it's unfortunately not fast enough to do anything on the pool.
Vanished off your mac? That shouldn't be possible unless there's a program that removed it from your mac. Are you using some kind of 'cleanup' software?
I don't understand your last post? What pool are you using? My primary suspect would be that hash rate which is not significant for Bitcoin, so you'd need a low difficulty pool. Is anything showing up in the API Output window in terms of accepted…
I'm not sure you'll get much out of that GPU but you can try some of the other miners in MacMiner if you like as well. Some of them are less intensive algorithms than others.
Ah, unfortunately those cards are just too old to work with this miner. Not sure whether they'd work with ccminer either.
This is not presently supported.
It should work with a bit of fixing for macOS, like the standard ccminer, I think.
For ethereum you need to set it up manually with the flags I posted further up the thread. Usually the pool you choose will tell you which ones to use with ethminer.
Is that from version 1.5.62? I don't get the same error in a clean virtual machine. Could you copy/paste it here please so I can see what specific link is breaking for you there?
If you mine on a secondary GPU that isn't the one driving your display you should be able to keep using the Mac. Otherwise it's likely to be unusable while mining xmr, gentler algorithms would be a better bet if you want to use the machine while …
Hmm. Are you using the standalone bfgminer binary or the one in MacMiner and do you get different results using MacMiner 1.5.62 and 1.5.57?
Ah that makes sense! The cpu miner is in the app bundle at MacMiner.app/Contents/Resources/cpuminermulti/bin/cpuminer
Unfortunately the future prospects for lyra2rev2 being fixed in sgminer for mac seem slim at present.
That's pretty much what I'd expect from the lyra2rev2 sgminer either at the command line or in the MacMiner GUI, unfortunately it just doesn't seem to work for macOS at present. It is receiving and processing shares, just not solving them. If you…
What version of macOS and what hardware (especially GPU) are you guys using? If we can find what you have in common we can probably find the cause of the problem.
Can you copy paste the output when it fails at the command line?
I've never seen that before. Are you using the binary included with MacMiner or the standalone version? It looks as though you're missing the OpenCL driver which should be installed on all macs... It might be work opening disk utility and running…
Generally speaking you are more likely to get HW errors on a GPU than a CPU but that's quite a large percentage, you might be able to reduce that by reducing your intensity.
I mean do you get shares accepted and results reflected at the pool when you say the GUI version is working ok?
I think you might get it working (at least to the same extent as in MacMiner) at the command line by adding the protocol, stra…
Are you getting shares accepted using the gpu miner? I didn't think it was working properly for anyone using lyra2rev2! What do you mean it didn't receive anything?
_clock_gettime is not set prior to macOS 10.12, I'll see whether I can compile libmicrohttpd to work on earlier versions, thanks for the report!
Which miner and algorithm are you using?
That's standard behaviour with xmr gpu mining. It's a very intense algorithm.
That miner reportedly doesn't work on macOS. I'll have a look at it though.
I don't know - are you maybe editing a commented out section of the conf file?
That's a weird one. I'll see whether I can replicate the behaviour.
Ah I got sloppy compiling libevent, thanks for letting me know, this is why it's marked as a beta version! I've replaced the download with a fixed version, you can also get it here just in case the replaced file at the same url as previous is cac…
@Lumikor I've compiled ccminer but it's not as straightforward to use as most miners so please do me a favour and give it a shot, first
Please install the CUDA t…
