Title: Query regarding upgrading cgminer for namecoin LP
Post by: mackminer on November 19, 2011, 03:21:50 PM
Hi,
I'm using this miner on linuxcoin for namecoins and bitcoins but I'm getting alot of stale shares for namecoin. Someone told me it's because of no support for namecoin long polling.

They also say this has now been fixed and upgrading resolved the issue for them. I have checked the changelog for cgminer and there doesn't seem to be any mention as to a change for this.

Anybody able to help? Thanks!  :)

Did you try to read the CG Miner thread?  It's there in the 2.0.8 announcement.

Sorry I checked it now, didn't realise it was the flushing addition that solved that problem. Besides, I was just asking a quick question I wanted an answer to and not a request to read a badly laid out book.

I am not sure if I can automatically upgrade this on linuxcoin?

You needed the answer right away or the world would have ended?

Do you not find though that you really have to dig through these long threads to find your answer?

Read the change log then, or learn how to search.  Too many people want to be spoon fed.
