Every time I try to join a pool it's down or goes down :/

Any help would be great so I don't get left out like I did joining BTC way too late

Is this a problem with the pool or my router?

Everything should be wide open but using a site that tests ports reports that 3333 is unreachable

e:  I should probably post this in the thread for the pool, please ignore unless I'm doing something generically incorrect

Mining uses the GPU

Playing videos can use the GPU

Do the math :p

Hi.

I'm quite a noob when it comes to all this java-programming-stuff, but I really want to try mining Bitcoins, and thus I downloaded DiabloMiner. I'm using Mac OSX 10.6.7 and my graphics card is a "ATI Radeon HD 5670". I try starting the program in Terminal, using the following:

java -cp /Users/Felles/Desktop/DiabloMiner/target/libs/*:/Users/Felles/Desktop/DiabloMiner/target/DiabloMiner.jar com.diablominer.DiabloMiner.DiabloMiner -u 12keBjKYgLJiTvwjxcbP5cbCHYV31TbT5d -p xxx -o pool.bitcoin.dashjr.org -r 8337 -g 5

which I found on an other forum, that solved some other problem I had previously. However, when I type that into Terminal, it gives me this:

[5/13/11 7:54:08 PM] Started
[5/13/11 7:54:08 PM] Connecting to: http://pool.bitcoin.dashjr.org:8337/
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no lwjgl in java.library.path

   at com.diablominer.DiabloMiner.DiabloMiner.main(DiabloMiner.java:108)


Then an app called com.diablominer.DiabloMiner.Diablominer launches down in the Dock, before quitting automatically after a few seconds..
I've of course downloaded the default Bitcoin client, as well as created the bitcoin.config-file with my username and password in the right format (even though I don't actually use those - as far as I know - as I'm trying to pool-mine).
Could you please help me, so I can begin my exiting Bitcoin adventure?

What happens when you run DiabloMiner-OSX.sh?

580 gets 127-130 mhash/sec at stock clocks with rpcminer-cuda on default settings under Windows 7 x64 (only one card so no SLI issues). 5850 gets somewhere around 240 mhash/sec or possibly more with the latest miners (I'm going off the wiki on this).

Welp. The 5850 is also $70 cheaper.  Guess I'll suck it up and hope AMD got its act together.

Superior Windows drivers, superior Linux drivers, 5-6x faster per watt on Bitcoin, same game or better game performance per dollar (69xx really screws over Geforce 5xx on games, especially in Crossfire vs SLI or games that use a lot of tess), plus AMD is the primary financial backer of a completely open source modern GPU driver stack and Nvidia is only unofficially threatening to sue over the same thing?

Nvidia is the one that needs to get their act together.

Not to get on your case, but I remember a time when the words "*nix" and "ATi" sent shivers down the back of geeks.  Things change.  I used to be a huge ATi fanboy but then I had a slew of bad experiences with them.

But either way, a 5850 is on the way.  Let's see how it goes.  Thanks for the advice, everyone.

a 5850 gets more mhash/s than a 580. There really isn't an nvidia equivalent.

How many more?  If it's pretty close, well this 460 is going in a box so it's not like I'll be totally hurting.  Plus the 12m I get from my girlfriend's little computer and the 1m I get from my laptop Wink

Bleh, I bought a new video card about 2 months ago, a 460 SE, and I was happy with it until I jumped onto this band wagon Wink

I really don't like how underperforming it is compared to a 5850, a card which is maybe $20 more than I spent for this thing. 

Thus, I'm thinking of upgrading; I want to know what is the nVidia equivalent, however, as I've had nothing but bad experiences with ATi recently.
