Re: [Linux] Autominer v0.3.2.6 - GPU Monitor, Downtime Swapper, New Interface

Hi,

im trying to use autominer... set up all configurations to my cards an workers.
But when i start
Code:
./startmining.sh /opt/miners/autominer
i don't get a new window.
Somehow the cards are fired up and doing their work.

Code:
screen -x amm -p 0
says "There is no screen to be attached matching amm."

Any suggestions?

EDIT:
- autoOpenXterm is set to 1
- also tried wrote
Code:
setenv DISPLAY ":0"
setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH "/opt/AMD-APP-SDK-v2.4-lnx64/lib/x86_64/lib"
to my ~/.screenrc
I believe you have an extra /lib on the end of your LD_LIBRARY_PATH, and if you set your autominer directory in your startmining.sh or the configure script you shouldn't need to include /opt/miners/autominer when running the script.

Is there any reason the exchange is not complete yet? Was there any problems?
I had the message window freeze up after hitting send once or twice, no errors or anything. I just waited a minute or so and restarted the client and the message had been sent so I don't think it could cause major problems with trades. It might just have been me though, so I'd call it complete. Grin

Do you think sending messages directly from identity to identity should be supported? If so, how do we get around the email issue of unsolicited messages? Make people friend each other first? Smiley
I think that would be good. Maybe use the eventual trust score system to determine if a message can be sent, like if they have <=0 trust they cannot send messages to people who haven't added them to their friends list (excluding trade messages of course). and include a "flag as spam" button on messages that would decrease the senders trust score. Although that might be abused, for example, have a conversation with someone then go though and flag every message they sent. Maybe limit the spam flag to one flag per sender per recipient per arbitrarily amount of time? Seems over complicated for the time being...yeah...Friends list is good, and an ignore list as well.

Some feature ideas once everything is nice and stable:

User profiles for each identity. Just a text field users can fill with information like the Bitcoin address, Dwolla ID, mailing address, etc. if they so choose.

PGP integration for the messaging features (are messages public?)

web-of-trust style user rankings, but that's already been requested.

Minimize to systray + systray notifications for new messages, accepted trades, etc.

Some kind of remote API (i was thinking about android apps, but i2p's memory requirements are to great, so a front end is all that seems doable)

I'm small time, only about 1 Ghash/s, but I'm still finding this to be more than profitable enough to continue. Granted you cant earn a living on it unless you have some serious hardware already, but I'm still making a good $200-300 USD a month after electricity. I'm still buying hardware. I'm even thinking of investing in actual cases and noise dampening foam. Think about it, miners that are compact AND quiet! MADNESS!

I have only one peer connected other than myself. I assume its because its so young, but just out of curiosity how many is everyone else getting?

I'm also getting an error when trying to make a new offer of 0.50BTC for $6.65USD sent by Dwolla.

Re: Bitcoins For The Common Street Moron?
by

Whats wrong with the name?

I don't think that Bitcoin itself is to complex for the average Joe, its just all the information on exchanges, markets, miners, security and the technical details creates mental overload for people who just want to send their money and be done with it. Being as young as it is there is a storm of information, both true and false, and the important stuff the consumer wants to know has yet to rise to the top.

The biggest hurdle is the low rate of merchant adoption. Why would I want to take time i could spend vegetating to learn if its unlikely there will be anything worth using Bitcoin for? I remember when Paypal was still young and everyone thought it was pointless, insecure, and not widely adopted and it was just easier to enter a credit card number. Now almost every major online retailer accepts Paypal, and so now millions use it.

The use of Windows operating systems, particularly for mining, is a threat to the security of the Bitcoin network.

Stop it.
I don't think its fair to blame windows system's for the ineptitude of its users. If they just keep their system up to date and have the common sense to refrain from downloading 20_free_happy_kitten_emoticons.exe then windows is fine for Bitcoin. Just wait until someone builds a wallet sealer for Mac! Oh the profits they will reap, and that's a BSD based system!

Linux's biggest advantage in security is that it's a small user base (relative to windows and mac) which is further divided between distributions. Plus, being a less popular system that only became readily available to the average computer illiterate Joe in the past couple of years, a large part of the user base is to advanced to fall for simple tricks. Leaving attackers with a very tiny target that simply isn't worth the effort while windows and mac exist.

I've seen a good bit of Linux specific talk, but i haven't seen to much Linux elitism here (although i spend a lot of time in Linux specific communities so maybe I'm desensitized). I'm just glad the board isn't over run with distro wars over who's pet distro is better for Bitcoin and network security that another's pet distro.

As for the the rest, I think its just the uncertainty in the air lately that none of us want to admit to. With the hacks, malware, scams, and rampant trolls plaguing our beautiful baby currency, it can make one feel a little on edge about investments made, and we take out on each other.

Hopefully as each of these issues are resolved/diminished we will see a return to a more friendly atmosphere.

Re: My friend got 60 extra BTC from his Mt Gox account and insists it is not theft.
by

I would argue that it is theft. Someone else on Mt Gox was likely shorted in this mismanagement, and now the BTC has been removed from the system so that it cannot be easily undone.

Also i would call 60BTC a big deal, thats $918 USD at current rates, and more than i mine in 2 months with my 5970 at current difficulty.

BTC cant be magically duplicated in database error, so somewhere someone is getting screwed, whether its a user or Gox itself.
