Thank you. Yes, I installed AMDOverdriveCtrl right away; didn't want to overcook my new Radeon card. Underclocked memory to 300mhz, GPU temp holding steady at about 69C now. Makes a great spaceheater!

Would like to get Phoenix and BFI_INT working on this solo mining testbed. According to the lengthy Phoenix thread it should work. But I still get: Failed to connect...

phoenix$ python phoenix.py -u http://USER:PASS@192.168.1.2:8332 -k poclbm VECTORS BFI_INT DEVICE=1 WORKSIZE=128
[15/05/2011 09:18:48] Phoenix r76 starting...

Free coin to anyone who can help.

If you want to solomine you run your bitcoin client like:

in the .bitcoin directory you make a textfile named bitcoin.conf with the following text:

rpcuser=yourrpcusername (make a name)
rpcpassword=yourrpcpassword (make a password)
rpcallow=127.0.0.1
rpcport=8332

and start you bitcoinclient like: sudo ./bitcoin -server

and in the phoenixminer use rpcuser/password like: python phoenix.py -u http://RPCUSER:RPCPASSWORD@127.0.0.1:8332 -k poclbm VECTORS BFI_INT DEVICE=1 WORKSIZE=128

then you can start solomining
