Most likely because he wants to mine with his GPU's. 3.7.2 is the last version to support that.

Just searched the README.txt, NEWS.txt and ASIC-README.txt. Found nothing about Antminer support. What am I missing? Thanks. Your missing the 6 post just before you posted this message.

friends dont let friends mine Deepbit.. sorry to say.
Aside from it's small size now, which delays payments significantly for some, not me for some reason as I have never had a problem, what exactly has ever been wrong with Deepbit? It has always been one of the most reliable pools out there.

I successfully initiated transfer of few bitcoin cents, they are still pending. But the major amount is still there and I can not transfer it neither with manual or automatic transfer...
They do not have enough bitcoins in their account, but that doesn't matter for me, I want to transfer my coins, otherwise I'm scammed...
Deepbit processes it's own transactions. So when Deepbit finds a block it will process the transactions.

Probably my lack of understanding, but how is the amount of shares affected by hashrate? I started with producing 40k shares per shift and now at 35k per shift average. I know that # of bitcoin paid per share decreases by difficulty, but how is the number of shares produced decreased as well. That is what I don't understand.
A shift takes less time when the pools hash rate increases so you get fewer shares in that shorter period of time.

I am a N00b and a roofer, so not a lot of understanding on pools and bitcoin. I started about a month ago and was mining about 40k shares per shift on pplns. Now it is around 35k shares. Is it because of old mining equipment?
No. It's because of the pools increased hash rate.

I'm 14. Why does this matter?
I guess he considers GUIminer to be like training wheels?

Found the readme.txt?

I would like to earn (by Mining) 0.05 BTC a week. (I'm aware that the value of bitcoins changes every hour) I'm able to spend around $500-$1,000 in Mining Hardware. I don't want to start Trading or Buying them (Yet)
You'll need 25+ Ghash/s at this difficulty for that. The difficulty adjusts, and only up recently, every 2016 blocks and targets for an adjustment every 2 weeks. Like the vpasic said do your research before spending.

Now is dead :-p 8600gts OC 8MHs :-s just try lol Now i have onboard, donīt mining lol, maybe buy a hd6670.
8600GTS sounds like an NVidia GPU. The ADL libraries which CGMiner 3.7.2 and earlier rely on, are for ATI/AMD GPU's only. So that's why you didn't see the temps. If you are going to buy a GPU I wouldn't waste time with an old 6670. Check with the Altcoin guys in the Altcoin thread to see what they would recommend for alt coins. That way when your done playing around with GPU BTC mining you can do something productive with it.

I want to go at 1.2 GH/s to generate a good amount of bitcoins a month.
What do you consider "a good amount"?
|
|
|
Yes i'm mining with my GPU just to earn some experience, my cgminer dont show GPU temp. I dont understand why! 1 more week and i recieve my antminer. Can you answer my questions?
What GPU are you using?

beg for dust is sound better to me than throwing money on electricity that will gpu suck!
so he need gpu mining experience to start mining with antminer???
and you are hero member here on bitcointalk...
People start and get experience with what they have at hand first. Nothing wrong with that. If he plans to mine BTC with his GPU for months on end then yes that would be a bad idea, I agree. But once he gets that experience and receives his ASIC's he may then point those GPU's to Altcoins that, people say, are still profitable with GPU's. We don't know what he has in mind until he tells us. So why discourage him until we know what he truly has in mind? The "Hero Member" is NOT my idea.

you can't mine btc with gpu!
Of course you can. It's just not the best idea. But didn't the OP say he was waiting on an ASIC? So he is just trying to get some experience, I think. Edit: I would rather he mine with a GPU then beg for dust.

|

Ii would like to know the answer to the temperature question myself.
I'm not sure I understand the original question. I thought it was a statement. But GPU Temp is always displayed in CGMiner.

I do not see an email address or contact number on the website
Bottom right side of the web page has the email address. Also PM [Tycho] and deepbit.

learn how to use the quote function. Quoting the OP was not even necessary for the question you asked.
Regards Everyone
Yes but at least we know he can find the OP

Your normal pools that you already have accounts with. Then solopool.net and your local bitcoin client would be good backup choices.

Anyone else noticing cgminer 3.10.0 crashing when connecting to BTCGuild? Runs fine on Eligius and p2pool, but as soon as it connects to Guild it just quits.
It's self-compiled on Debian, running 2x Nanofury and 1x Bitburner Fury.
My guess is you messed up your argument on the worker name/port or something similar. Works fine on bfgminer 3.9 and 3.10 here. It gets a few shares then craps out. cgminer.conf hasn't changed in....oh...about 3 months. It's CGminer, not bfgminer, too (only using cg because bfg doesn't support the Bitburner). So, I think your guess is wrong. I'm pointing out the issue in case it's something with the new servers? Nothing's changed here. Trying to get a working version of cgminer 3.10 working, but since cgminer likes to fuck with drivers and make itself incompatible with bfgminer it's taking a long time. I'm not seeing anybody else complaining about a similar issue though...I'm still thinking it's a config problem. Absolutely nothing has changed on the validation server in the last week. Any connection attempts have been connecting to the validation server all week. Additionally, the communication between the server and client is identical to what it used to be. I updated my CGMiner 3.8.4 to 3.10.0 and it seems to be working fine here for over an hour now. Win Vista w/Jalapeno and 49 BE's.

Thank you buddy. That worked!
Glad to hear it. Keep in mind that this is the Bitcoin section. The altcoin section has some very knowledgeable folks that are very helpful, probably more so now that there isn't much GPU mining on Bitcoin anymore. Take Care, Sam
