.98 is much better on p2pool. My Jupiter went from 440GH/s to 530GH/s.  Nice work KNC and Con.

For those people having trouble connecting to *some* pools out there (the ones using round robin for DNS such as eligius), I have built a binary incorporating some upcoming changes to cgminer that hopefully should help:

(For advanced users only since you have to copy this to your knc device under ssh as per my first binary upload).

ive updated to .98 right when it came out and noticed that i was yielding 15-20 gh/s more than previous firmwares.
i was hash around 565-570gh on the pool and this was shown on cgminer as well, but today i noticed that cgminer, bertmod and pool is displaying a decline in hash rate (cgminer showing 550gh down from 565gh), any idea why this is? the temps on the unit remain the same and i havent touched anything since i updated.

I think, November miner deliveries has already been shipped and they reach customers today.

Customers can start hashing from tomorrow, 00:00.

I too am noticing the same-old "Dwindle-down" of hashrate over time, and have to run "enablecores" on all the machines to get back, which lasts about 8 hours...before I really start noticing a drop

Are you sure you're not just looking for another reason to futz around with your miners?   

[DigginDeep]

Mine has been sitting at 564-565 for over 24 hours,  as long as I keep it warm its all good, mine likes 50 - 60c anything below it starts  picking up more errors and hash rate drops, my error rate was between around 9 percent before cgminer upgrade, after I got around 5 percent, then after .98 it's been around 2.5

ack hope this is not true and they don't ship till nov 15th as they said..if not what are we looking at every 10 days a 50% difficulty increase? hard to ROI back that way!

They told me they planned to have
A month in between shipping, and I believe they will hold up to that, other wise they would piss off allot of customers, and anyone smart that paid with a credit card could get a refund if they wanted, and would lose allot of customers if they plan on having a gen 2, though a gen 2 would only be worth while if they got much better watt  / gig performance

[demonmaestro]

Whats sad is there is no compensation for thoes that are 15 days past due.. yes i got my miner yesterday wednesday(30th) but that is 15 days LATE. I will NEVER see anywhere then maybe HALF of total amount i paid for my miner.

[jelin1984]

When you order the miner?

[demonmaestro]

When you order the miner?

Heck i dont remember now. But case in point being IS they said they will have ALL miners DELIVERED by the 15th of october.

yeah I got my Jupiter shipped on oct 15th...got it on oct 18th...imho if you did get it shipped after the 15th you probably should get some kinda compensation

Also I seem to remember knc saying they want to give the 1st order/batch of customers "PREFERENTIAL" treatment towards their next purchase of KNC equipment....does anyone have any more details on that?

Not sure the way stuff is working out if I'll ever buy another miner..with difficulty going nuts and bfl still having 1/2 of its hash to move ...april bitcoin hit mainstream.bfl sold a lot of stuff with their scam from then on.....bfl imho still has a lot of crap to trickle out...(I will get my bfl 7gh jally $388 w/ship on thurs this week went to www.dustcoin.com and I'd make more on PPcoin then bitcoin using that unit ..it was ordered in april (before knc became a company!..by next difficulty it will basically be a brick...my other orders upgraded to 900gh of monarchs...don' t laugh you'll choke...yeah it was a lame punt..but hope is all I have left....misplaced thou it no doubt is...a brick now a brick later same diff..out 8k)

anyway more details on 2nd gen stuff...if knc is really gonna hold off on stuff like that till feb/march (prob wise imho) and the preferential treatment for 1st batch customers thingy stated in the past....if anyone has any more info (of course they also said you could upgrade your Saturn and mercury with modules but I heard on here that is off the table)...

anyway ..... my 2c worth

I have heard from a forum member that his $5000 "November" order shipped on 30/10

hi guys, so earlier i changed my networking settings on my miner so that i would have a static ip for the miner.
when i try to SSH through putty and follow the usual steps: 1. log in as root 2. enter password and 3. screen -r
but now after i enter screen -r this comes up:

"theres a screen on:
1771.cgminer (attached)
there is no screen to be resumed."

how do i get my cgminer to display again?

thanks!

Jupiter

Rolled mine back to 0.95 from 0.98.  Noticed a Drop in hash rate after 36 Hours (from 550 to 520) at the pool. Also I get the occasional core disabled and re-enabled in 0.98, don't get them in 0.95.

Also get 80+ Watts back at the wall, temps down 5 Degrees.

HW rate down from 1.5% to 0.5%.

So 0.95 seems to be the Sweetest FW for my Jupiter.

I think you need restart the miner - it stops mining

use screen -d (detaches other attached screens) and then screen -r

or

use screen -x (attaches to already attached screen)

yup, that fixed it, thanks a bunch!

My Mercury is sitting at 106Gh/s and roughly the same on the server. I'm on .89, can't seem to get it to stay any higher. I'd like 110, 120 at least. I've seen it go to 126, that would be nice constantly, but it's not doing it hmmm...
