Title: CPU Miner & problem with libcurl Post by: lupio on March 23, 2011, 11:35:35 AM Hello,
I install CPU Miner ( https://github.com/j16sdiz/cpuminer ). But when I execute configure, I have a problem with the libcurl : Code: ./configure: line 4830: syntax error near unexpected token `,' I have Fedora 14. So, I look if I have a libcurl on the system : Code: Le paquet libcurl-7.21.0-6.fc14.x86_64 est déjà installé dans sa dernière version I try install a libcurl-7.21 devel and I have always this problem. Would you have a solution? Thanks PS : Sorry for my bad english Title: Re: CPU Miner & problem with libcurl Post by: Patches on March 23, 2011, 11:47:29 AM Hello, I install CPU Miner ( https://github.com/j16sdiz/cpuminer ).

Would you have a solution? Thanks PS : Sorry for my bad english Download and compile from the tarball (http://yyz.us/bitcoin/cpuminer-0.8.1.tar.gz) rather than from github. At least that worked for me on OS X which was having trouble finding libcurl. Bon chance!

But when I execute configure, I have a problem with the libcurl : Code: ./configure: line 4830: syntax error near unexpected token `,' Your libcurl installations is broken. It lacks autoconf macro(s). As another poster noted, you should build from tarball instead of git, to avoid having to regenerate configure.

With http://yyz.us/bitcoin/cpuminer-0.8.1.tar.gz , it's ok =) Title: Re: CPU Miner & problem with libcurl Post by: hangover on October 22, 2011, 03:38:39 PM Sorry for necroposting, but there is solution. (I am using FreeBSD).
Code: $ cd cpuminer Then add string "ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS = -I m4" to file Makefile.am and edit file autogen.sh - replace string "aclocal" with "aclocal -I m4". That's all.

You pay a premium over what a BTC would cost if you just bought the thing on Mt. Gox. Maybe 30% more, maybe 50% more -- maybe even double!
Do mined BTC taste better than ones you buy from an exchange? I guess you're probably setting this up on your work PC -- still, I'd be careful. Making 0.3 BTC a month (current value: $0.87) isn't worth losing your job :) Title: Re: CPU Miner & problem with libcurl Post by: hangover on October 22, 2011, 06:07:45 PM Well, thank you for your care about my job, heh :)
But my post wasn't about bitcoin mining soft only ;) There are some new alternative crypto currencies (LiteCoin, Tenebrix, etc.) that grow rapidly enough, and it uses CPU proof of work (scrypt algorithm). |
