A little bit trading and mining on https://cex.io and doing Faucets and Co. on http://coininfo.blogspot.com.

CPU Mining doesn't work properly. No accepted shares through CPU. Only GPU works as expected.
After 2 hours run time i can see the following:


- CPU: Athlon II 605e (4x 2,3 GHz)
- GPU: HD 5670 oced to 900 MHz (Mem 300 MHz)
- Gentoo 64 bit stable
- Catalyst 11.6 with SDK 2.4
- latest cgminer GIT version

If I'm using cgminer (version 1.5.1) then i see a lot of:

After 9 hours of runtime p2pool shows:


And Diablo Miner shows:Pool:


So 112 of 645 shares are stale shares this is a 17,4% stale rate.


Something is still wrong and i don't know the root cause.

OK p2pool updated and i used your version of Diablo Miner.


It's better than before. Now i have to check long time results.


By the way. WOW almost 1.8 GH/s Pool rate.  

No i only want to warn everybody. I also wrote "Every other way may leed to the Ban of the account of the ISK buyer and seller!!!"

If CCP didn't catch you and kam1lly then you are lucky. ISK selling is forbidden by the CCP/EVE Online rules.

I'm using your branch of Diablo Miner (http://u.forre.st/u/xsvenrwa/DiabloMiner_2e73cc.zip) now and i will report back.

Where can i see how many shares are "completed" of the current block/round?


Thanks

CCP, the company producing EVE Online, doesn't permit selling ISK (the ingame currency) through 3rd party!!! The only legal ways to "buy" ISK are:

1.) buy a PLEX in the official EVE Online store and sell the PLEX in the ingame market
2.) buy a GTC (Game Time Card) in an official retailer (online) store, then convert the GTC into PLEX on the EVE Online website and sell the PLEX in the ingame market

Every other way may leed to the Ban of the account of the ISK buyer and seller!!!


Thanks.

Ok with last changes in the p2pool Source code we are able to see number of Stale Shares. After updating the Source Code i've started the p2pool and the Diablo Miner. 1 hour later i can see the following Result.

- Gentoo Linux 64 bit stable
- Catalyst 11.6 + AMD SDK 2.4
- HD 5670 900/300 MHz (Core/Ram)
- ~101 mhash/s
- latest Diablo Miner and p2pool version


That are a lot of stales. If p2pool and Diablo Miner runs 10 or more hours then i'm still seeing hashrates of 70-80 mhash/s. So i must assume that 20-30% of my contributed shares are stale shares.

If i'm using the Diablo Miner with Eligius pool i'm still getting around 10% of stales. And if i'm using cgminer with Eligius i'm getting lesser stales but around 10-15% of corrupted shares.

I don't know why i'm getting such a high stale rate. Maybe my Internet connection is not fast enough or the 5670 is too slow.

Can someone confirm this issue?


Thanks.

Best Regards.

I'm using a 5670 (oc'ed to 900 MHz => 101 mhash/s)  and Diablo miner. I can confirm the wrong showed pool mhash/s and contributed stats when using cgminer.

Hello,

does anybody still use this pool?

I'm using it with some breaks since it went live on the mainnet and i see a big issue.

- p2pool is running for some time
- stop p2pool
- wait some hours or only minutes
- start p2pool
- now lots of shares (~10%) are missing
- e.g. i stopped the pool today 7/23/2011 1:02 p.m. UTC with shown 5xx mhash/s and ~38500 shares
- then i started the pool 7/23/2011 1:04 p.m. UTC (2 minutes) later and now 20 minutes later it shows


- so almost 3500 shares are missing
- i'm not sure but i think we should be around 45000-50000 shares already


Can some of the few p2pool users confirm this?


Thanks

Best Regards

Operations

The last update fixed the p2pool connection issue.

Thank you

Hello Diablo,

the current version don't work with the new p2pool (https://forum.bitcoin.org/index.php?topic=18313.0). If i'm starting the Diablo Miner i'm getting the following error and the Miner doesn't do anything.

You must be logged in and at least one Thread (Forum/Sub Forum website is not enough) must be open in the Browser. Then the "Total time logged in" Counter will tick. But there is some kind of Timeout. According to my tests you must reload or change the threadsat least every 10-15 minutes to make the Counter still tick.

So use the time to read the content of this forum. 

Hello Enisada,

which mining software do you use?

I don't think the bitcoin/$ rate will increase this year. We will see some increases due to new users and we will see decreases due to regulation tries from the local goverments.

40 minutes later without touching the Mouse and/or keyboard and it's 3:37 p.m. German local time and the "Total time logged in" Counter shows "Total time logged in: 16 minutes."

It's not enough to stay logged in without surfing in the forum.
