On the linux machine I entered slimcoin setgenerate true 8 (it's a maschine with 16 cores). From your experience, how long it takes until I get to mine a block?

Also, in the GUI wallet, there's an option about mining? Is that thing doing anything atm?

Thanks!

Get your hashes per sec with:
slimcoin gethashespersec

Current difficulty is 0.01059393, this is 0.01059393 * 2^32 (~46 mio) hashes on average required to mine a block.

~~gethashespersec returns zero. Auch. I suspect there's something I should do in the slimcoind.conf, but other than rpcuser and password I have nothing in it atm.~~

For some reason, it worked, here's what I have in getmininginfo on the linux machine

{
"blocks" : 859892,
"currentblocksize" : 1000,
"currentblocktx" : 0,
"difficulty" : 0.01151753,
"errors" : "",
"generate" : true,
"genproclimit" : 8,
"hashespersec" : 1093,
"networkghps" : 0.00033882,
"pooledtx" : 0,
"testnet" : false
}

According to the calculations above, I should get a block every 6 hours, at worst. I'll keep you posted.

On the Mac machine I had no luck, although I let it run for the whole night. Mining is shaky so I stopped it.

Is there any way to "tell it" setegenerate true 4 or whatever on the Mac?
