Thanks! Ah, that makes sense in a weird, Linux kind of way ;-)
I have a hashcount but it seems only one core is hashing (of my 2600k I7, which has 4cores/8threads. I only have 12-13% CPU usage. Are the number of cores used hardcoded somewhere? Or can I change it in the yacoin.conf?
EDIT: I tried adding genproclimit=7 to the yacoin.conf file, but no difference after restarting. Also tried by restarting with
me@ubuntu:~/yacoin/src$ ./yacoind -daemon -gen -genproclimit=7 -addnode=82.211.30.212
me@ubuntu:~/yacoin/src$ YaCoin server starting
But still only 12-13% CPU usage and about 65khash/sec?
did the wallet sync all the blocks? you can make a gui version of the wallet too
Try genproclimit=-1
Thanks, I tried genproclimit=-1, both in .conf as well as in the command, but no difference (12-13% usage only)?
I am not sure if all the blocks have been synched, how do I find out? Getpeerinfo gives me 8 peers; Checkwallet gives "true", but no other info.
And yes, a GUI version would be most welcome, how would I do that?
Thanks
./yacoind getinfo
./yacoind getmininginfo
./yacoind listtransactions
./yacoind gethashespersec
Ha. I found out that the VMware vitrual Machine has a standard setting that uses only one CPU core... When trying to raise this to 6, it tells me that I need to upgrade. I can change it to 4, and it seems to re-initiate. But no difference in CPU usage.
Only after completely rebooting Virtual Machine and Ubuntu in it, I could use 4 (out of
cores and can now mine with 50% CPU 
Still not sure if I am actually mining correctly.
Hope this helps someone...
