Oh yeah, I forgot to add prime.h to the commit. It's fixed now. It was a problem with commit b6a92cd8b9.

Works now, thanks. Any plans to include xpm protocol functionality into the wallet so we can use it as a hub ? Having to download the entire blockchain on every node is a pain ... plus it would allow us to experiment with current pool miners, jhprimeminer, xolominer, etc..

No plans for that currently. I've been hoping that the stand-alone miner devs would eventually implement either getwork or getblocktemplate (GBT). GBT is working and getwork should be fixed but I haven't tried it. There's a few forks of jhPrimeminer out there that do that but it looks like the code hasn't spread to the more popular forks. Also, I don't know the specs of the pool protocols so I don't know exactly what the advantages are.

I have spoken to both Aerocloud and clintar. Offered a .5 btc bounty for implementing solo mining capabilities. They refused. I think they both have a deal with the pool owners preventing them from releasing solo miners. If anyone reading this knows xpt protocol and can implement it into the original wallet let us know, i am sure more people will chime in to increase the bounty.
