It doesn't work? I copy/paste my BTC address, enter captcha, hit send... and nothing. No error messages or anything!
All payments are being approved manually within a day, so wait a while. We cannot enable auto payments due to large number of cheating attempts.
I see. Well, the site is still somewhat misleading in the fact that it doesn't show ANYTHING whatsoever. At the very least, it should say something like 'Your request has been received' or 'You've already requested' if you click the 'Send' button a second time or more. I can click it forever and get no message whatsoever.

Re: POLL Going under 10 Thash because of Irene Vote now!

Me and my ~100 Mhash are probably going to be offline for Irene... although 100 Mhash when talking about Thash is pretty much irrelevant.

However, if everyone who thought they were irrelevant didn't mine, I bet the rate would go down significantly.

(Solidcoin site) Bug report: I set my donation % to .1% while I was trying different settings and I now see 'Ads are disabled for users with 1% or more donation' yet I have .1% donation.

I'm not complaining -- I'll take no ads anyday. Feel free to take your time fixing this one.

.1% is less than 1% Smiley

donation percents are divided by 100 automatically. If you put 1, 1/100th of your cashout will will be deducted. If you put .1, 1/1000th will be deducted, etc.

UPDATE: Just rebuilt the client, hopefully I knocked out some more stales.
Yeah... I have less than 1% donation and I'm getting the auto-adblock for people with equal or more than 1% donation. Feel free to ignore it, however. Wink

On the topic of the 580, how many 'CU' does it have? The 460 has 7.


EDIT: In fact, it's now even LOWER! I barely pull 20 MH/s now on your client. Maybe I'm doing something wrong?
Further: I do notice there are new drivers out... I'll try them.

Keep in mind that this is WITHOUT my OC, just a quick picture I took and cropped for uploading.

Although, what I'm more interested in is how you pulled off this when my clock was faster than this. Using the exact same settings I got half the speed.
Quote
NVIDIA GTX 580, overclocked to 812 MHz, GeForce 275.33 drivers
- 134 mhps BitMinter (vectors off, worksize 64, 50 ms intervals)
- 132.3 mhps Phoenix (-k poclbm WORKSIZE=64 VECTORS FASTLOOP AGGRESSION=7)
- 33 mhps with DiabloMiner and Phoenix+phatk (with vectors on: only 13 mhps)

Finally, your CPU mining could use a biiiiiiit of optimization. I get .46 Mh/s and on rpcminer-4way (Quad-core CPU) I pull 12.46 Mh/s.
This does however show promise, given how quick you were to respond. Shocked

Amazing, it actually worked. I'm assuming it was the 'BSOD' that caused the Muffins to mess up, but... I dunno. Huh

Unfortunately, it's slower than a CUDA miner for me. :[ The Gfx card goes at about 57-60 MH/s at 851 Mhz Core clock with 64 WGS, 50 ms interval, no vectors, BFI-INT enabled. Perhaps I should try increasing the WGS? (Work group size)

On GUIminer's CUDA miner, I use -gpugrid=512 -gputhreads=700 -aggression=8 and get 80-90 MH/s.

According to the logfile, I'm using the 'beta' 1.0 version (Even though it's the one from the non-beta link on the page). I can't make this thing work for the life of me. One of two things happens.

1. I log in successfully, see briefly 'GPU Device 0 has no space left, wating for confirmation' or something like that (it's not there long enough to read), then the screen goes black, and the computer restarts as if it had a BSOD (And windows considers it one, it makes a minidump).
2. The 'Proceed' button on the log in doesn't work. I can click it forever to no avail.

I'm using an AMD Phenom II X4 965 for my CPU and an NVidia GTX 460 as my GPU. The prospect of 100+ MH/s was enticing (I can overclock even higher than the value listed above and still see stability)... but it doesn't look like the client will work.


EDIT: Just noticed this is now popping up whenever I click 'start'
Code:
2011.08.26 [15:55]  Unable to load settings: java.io.IOException: For input string: "

EDIT2: It now is claiming my card doesn't support OpenCL... but it certainly does. Both the official page and GPU-Z say it does, at least.
Code:
2011.08.26 [15:59] Device drivers for GeForce GTX 460 (#1) does not support OpenCL 1.1. Unable to detect whether the
work group size is optimal.

What on earth is going on here...?

Re: Multitasking and Pool Mining

GUIMiner will usually give higher numbers regardless, but in terms of multitasking, be wary how low you set the delay. Higher delays = better multitasking and lower hash rate.

Join my team (see sig) Smiley
I joined earlier... although the whole 'teams' thing seems rather pointless, imo. The only thing mildly interesting about it is the fact that it essentially allows you to compete with other people in your team for positions on the board.

I'm still having problems with...
You're doing it wrong. It should really be
Code:
poclbm.exe -d# http://user:pass@deepbit.net:8332
along with any other options you like, which should be placed before the http.
Although, if you want to make it even easier on yourself, use the GUIminer. That miner works faster than regular command line miners for me and is much, much easier to get working. You just press 'start' and it goes, basically.

Hello everyone, I'm me. I'm mainly posting here for another post towards the count of 5, but whatever. :p

I have a whopping 2 Bitcents, and am a tad annoyed I bought an Nvidia GPU with this computer. Ah well, can't change the past now, can we?  Roll Eyes

Re: Golden Age of Mining
by
Turbo4000
on 11/08/2011, 00:29:34 UTC
Right now.. you can easily mine over 9000 (literally) satoshi per minute on a single half-decent GPU!
People will surely look back at this as a golden age of mining.

Yeah, I'd say it'll still be a golden age at least until we hit the second cut in generation value to 12.5 BT/Block. By that point, the difficulty will probably be so high, it would no longer be profitable at all to mine.
Then again, that's the point of the difficulty. We'll reach equilibrium at some point...

Re: Alienware M11x - 11MH/s - Is this right?
by

on 11/08/2011, 00:22:27 UTC
Can't find a GT 335M, but the comparison list at https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Mining_hardware_comparison appears to state that a 330M will mine at about 7 MH/s.

You can try overclocking, but something that really helped me is to use the GUIminer and run the CUDA miner. My Nvidia GTX 460 hits 60+ MH/s. It still has absolutely NOTHING on the HDs from ATI, but I didn't have to pay anything extra for it.

[Fixed] Problems with the BC Wallet?
by
Turbo4000
on 09/08/2011, 17:17:56 UTC
Hello all, consider this line my introduction.  Cheesy


EDIT: Fixed by deleting blkindex.dat and blk0001.dat, I guess they got corrupted. Lock please! :l


However, I'm having a nasty problem. I start up the Bitcoin.exe program and it immediately says 'Error loading blkindex.dat'. Now, it worked perfectly before. This just started happening after I was forced to restart my computer.

So then, here's what happened before. I was downloading the blockchain (Up to 110k blocks too.) while watching some stuff on youtube. I had been mining for a few hours earlier as well. During a video, I randomly got a bluescreen for PFN_LIST_CORRUPT and was forced to restart. I tried to open bitcoin.exe to continue the blockchain download and then I get the error.

So, why doesn't bitcoin just create a new blkindex.dat like it probably had to in the beginning? Will I have to redownload (most of) the blockchain? Is my 0.01 BTC lost forever (I'd assume this one is NOT true, as it was never claimed since I hadn't reached that point in the blockchain yet and I still know my address)?
