Is "setgenerate true" not available in the v2 wallet console?
A coin designed for CPU/GPU mining should have this functionality.
If enough people want it I'll see if I can add it in, until then there are CPU miners available at
http://wiki.darkcoin.eu/wiki/Mining_Darkcoin#Mining_ProgramsWith a CPU you'll probably get 300-500 k/hash.
So with setgenerate you might only get 1/10 of that unless we specify the number of threads. Even though it probably won't generate any coins dues to difficulty. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
Yeah, in-client CPU mining will also be slower than the dedicated programs because they are optimized a lot better and can connect to stratum pools.
