Sorry about the bump guys but I'm getting very close to a finished product here and wanted to know if you guys want anything else added to linuxcoin ? Alls left to do is the graphical stuff and a plymouth theme Cheesy

So get your requests in now !!!! lol

heres a screenshot of the new version running a secure bitcoin wallet and guiminer rocking phoenix Cheesy

This version rules lol

Excellent!

I have been experimenting with simple ways to encrp the wallet file alone and then email it to oneself. It would need to be able to be decrpted easily in Windows. Truecrypt seems way too cumbersome and others are such a hassle to install.

Dumb Question:

Are the secure and unsecure bitcoin clients different wallets?

This does just encrypt your wallet.dat and you can acces your wallet in windows using FreeOTFE http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FreeOTFE Wink

I suppose they are Cheesy

the unsecured bitcoin client just opens the bitcoin software as normal the secure bitcoin client moves the wallet over to your encrypted space andsymlinks it back. Once finished it closes the encrypted space so there's no wallet.dat to steal Wink

If you started a secure bitcoin client then tried to access your secure wallet the file wouldn't exist and a new wallet would be created.
