Based on the usage of mongoDB this is using Node.js? I have an similar system I'm hacking away at, but I gather the values from the server side. Were you going to release your codebase?

Re: New .Net Miner (now with GPU and long poll!)

I guess I find myself not too interested in pulling this off, or polluting the code enough to accomplish it. Either way, you are going to be installing this software on other machines. Can either bundle .Net 4 with it, or do something like AOT it with Mono.

I'd be more interested in making it compatible with Mono.

After looking at the code last night that was my general feeling also. Getting it to compile under Mono would be more groundbreaking than backporting to NET 3.5.

System.ComponentModel.Composition is MEF.

Exactly. Unless you steal the assembly out of the GAC, it is easier to resort to MEF rc3 for backporting.

No. It uses Linq in a few places. 4.0 only.
Will it work with NET 2.0 libraries?

Actually it should be possible to backport to NET 3.5 and into Visual Studio 2008 as the only NET 4.0 dependency ('System.Componentmodel') could be either replaced with MEF or worked around. I'll take a better look at the scope of changes later tonight.

I'm going to let you sift out what you want, because the BOINC project has almost all the information you'll need: http://boinc.berkeley.edu/trac/wiki/SoftwareDevelopment.

Re: XML-RPC interface for phoenix allows monitoring

XML-RPC should be a defacto standard in all miners! I'd also like to see JSON-RPC as it seems to be the protocol favored by the majority of bitcoin projects. I patched guiminer, but I'm now thinking it would be better to implement directly in phoenix/poclbm (https://github.com/entens/poclbm/commit/7420e4560ae5517b01d0a758b15b16a6874cba4d#guiminer.py).

Re: GUIminer connecting

guiminer displays 'connecting...' when the hashrate is equal to 0. Normally this means your client has not received a unit of work from the pool yet or guiminer encountered a problem before it could start working.

Well using guiminer you can add the 'summary' page.

I don't know about a multiple machine summary, similar to Nagios/Spiceworks.

I just do like you do. I keep HWINFO and the summaries open and check on them once in awhile.

I suppose you could have HWINFO or GPU-Z to save a logfile in a dropbox and check on that instead.


Ah, I believe someone had a proxy website they built to automatically fail-over pools and check on mining stats.

The proxy might be a little overkill for just monitoring, but it is a possibility. What I'm looking for is a overview of all my nodes with rates, temperatures, etc (see: http://i.imgur.com/kEc5O.jpg for an example)

Re: GUI mining - updated host address for slush's pool

2) Can you add the bitcoin.lc pool to the list of drop downs in your next build please. I know it can be manually added, which I have done, just nice to have it in there, thanks =)

You can manually add a pool by editing the servers.ini file in the guiminer directory. I pushed a change out on github with the changes made. On a side note it seems bitcoin.lc is redirecting to bitcoins.lc, which one is correct?

I'm in the same situation. I've already started writing a patch for guiminer to emit the json information for the workers, but I'm beginning to think this type of information might be more useful right in poclbm. A dashboard is easier once there is a standard way of collecting the data.

I'm looking to redirect the rate, accepted, and stale values through a socket so I can use rrdtool or nagios to monitor my miners. Would it best to add this directly to poclbm and phoenix, or piggyback off guiminer?

You should check out hamachi. new linux client graphical interface is currently in beta, but it works perfectly fine from the command line.

Monitoring multiple miners

How do monitor multiple miners? Do you have custom scripts written, or am I missing an obvious tool?

Re: SomeONE is pushing the price down

I think that we're at the point where a sizable amount of traffic on mtgox is generated from trading bots, while early adopters with large BTC wallets are trying to slowly cash out while the price is high.

Seems like normal market correction to me.

Re: Price will be $5 by the end of this month

I'm guessing that we'll see controlled sell off until we reach past the $5 mark. The price will oscillate back up eventually. The recent news cycle on bitcoins has generated interest that will translate into higher valuation as bitcoin sees adoption for commercial use.
