Title: Solo Mining LTC help
Post by: Tw1ser on April 05, 2013, 12:46:10 AM
Hi, before I try solo mining by running cgminer for couple of days I wanted to make sure that I actually setted it up correctly

For my "Roaming/Litecoin/ litecoin.conf" settings I putted this:

rpcuser=Tw1ser
rpcpassword=2222
rpcallowip=localhost
rpcport=9332
daemon=1
server=1
gen=0

block_nTime=1317972665
block_nNonce=2084524493

As my solomine.bat file settings I have this:

color 06
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
cgminer --scrypt --intensity 20 -o localhost:9332 -u Tw1ser -p 2222 --worksize 256 --failover-only -o stratum+tcp://coinotron.com:3334 -u xxxx -p xxxx --worksize 256

My actions: 1st, I open: "blablabla/bla/litecoin-qt.exe" -server
2nd, wait a little then run .bat file

after 10 minutes of running I have this (NOTE: Screenshot was taken before I switched user from username to Tw1ser; switched 127.0.0.1 to localhost; and instead of notroll.in pool to coinotron;

As I have understood since I added 2nd pool as my failover cgminer will take information about blocks found from pool instead of my local server correct ? When I pool mine I get no HW errors and usually stay around ~2-5% of rejected shares. My GPU is HD 7950 x1 at 1100core and 1600memory with ~1.2 - 1.23 VDDC

P.S. With this hashrate (~620 kh/s) is it still viable to solo mine LTC ?

take ltc's difficulty, and your hash rate and plug them into here: http://www.alloscomp.com/bitcoin/old_calculator.php

Thanks, now I need to know if it's actually searching for anything at all.
