1463  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: BAMT version 0.5 - Easy USB based mining Linux with farm wide management tools on: July 27, 2012, 10:53:31 PM
So you recommend just.. just waiting until your server comes back on instead of downloading it from my site?

Yes, that is what I recommend.  Of course you may offer any promise you like regarding the files on your site, and that is fine, but that comes from you and not from me or the BAMT project.  I can only guarantee the content of the mirrors that have official arrangements with the BAMT project, surely that makes sense.  It's not that I don't appreciate you helping some people out, I just cannot take any responsibility here.  While you might have only the best intentions, others may offer mirrors that do not.
Also I cannot take responsibility for the security of your website.  You may have authentic images there now and some hacker may replace them with something else tonight.  Checksums are great but most people ignore them unfortunately.  All in all its just a headache to have uncoordinated mirrors out there.

We will move the official site to a more reliable hosting provider so it will not be an issue in the future.


Why not just post an official torrent?  Then there will not be doubt of the legitimacy, it will not cost bandwidth once it's seeded, always be up, etc.

Downloading images from unofficial sources is not recommended.  As you found with the corrupt download and 404s, they often just don't work.  You also run the risk of tampering or malware infected images if you choose not to use official mirror sites.

So you recommend just.. just waiting until your server comes back on instead of downloading it from my site?  We have had 100% uptime since July 2011.  Since these are pretty big files, and the upload is of a limited speed, it is plausible that the download could get messed up in transit, but that can happen to any server.  If it doesn't make it... Just try again.

I took the liberty to download it from my server once just now and from all your mirrors, and the MD5 hashes were all identical.  

Code:
bamt_v0.5c.zip

1 - bitcointrading - 1DA3D70D0C4A1C4F44F6870772AAD26D
2 - backpack ------- 1DA3D70D0C4A1C4F44F6870772AAD26D
3 - biomancer ------ 1DA3D70D0C4A1C4F44F6870772AAD26D
4 - macdonaldbeats - 1DA3D70D0C4A1C4F44F6870772AAD26D

If someone gets a corrupt download, the issue is on their end.  If the image was corrupt, you would have seen more than one person say so in the periods of bamter.org downtime.  I always test files I upload.

I'm doing you and the community a favour by offering my bandwidth.  

If anyone happens to be looking for the other versions of BAMT for whatever reason, here you go:

edit: I added a mirror!  This is the murdercapitals server, the one that my text rpg is on, it has lots of extra bandwidth.  The bitcointrading server is 1/3 of the speed of the murdercapitals server for big files like this.

http://files.murdercapitals.com/bamt/bamt_v0.4.zip MD5: 4974FAC52C0591244AA95DA237DCC451
http://www.bitcointrading.com/files/bamt_v0.4.zip MD5: 4974FAC52C0591244AA95DA237DCC451

http://www.bitcointrading.com/files/bamt64_v05a.zip MD5: 38D9658847F6862471CCF27C9A5CF8A8

I warn you though, don't ask for help for any version other than 0.5c, these images are not supported.

BBQ coin was a piece of shit. Who would invest in this shit, even judging by it's SpecialED name. Cubox is some 17 year old guy who can't code for shit. Fake coin? Yeah, that's why you had pools mining immediately. Fuck BBQfakefoodnoexchangesiteforfoodCoin. What's next? SushiCoin? EggRollCoin? Maybe my Mom will create TacoCoin, or my Dad with his specialty of CurryCoin?

Anyways, in honor of destroying your piece shit coin, we're gonna have a BBQ party which we can see if we cab buy some BBQ food for the people who helped in #BBQFoil.

I would invest in TacoCoin.

If you factor in a modest gain each month of $1.00, it would take ~23 months to get there which puts in firmly in the 2015 slot. Of course, if there are other upward moves that are sustained, it could shorten the process. Consider it a more conservative projection.
I don't think the gains will be $1 each month...  With bitcoin it has huge upswings and downswings...  We did see a slow and steady climb from $2 to $10, so it could very well go on that path... But with traders like pirate@40 and potential other larger players, there is really no telling what will happen.

I'd call dev-kits custom.

The clue's in the name: Development Kit.

They're like, for development. They're not an end-user product. They are custom.
Even calling them COT is a stretch.

I'm comfortable with the forum name.
I agree 100%.

ziptie a 120mm fan on that shiz
That's my suggestion as well.  Take the shroud off so you get better cooling, but if one fan still works, throw a 120mm on top of the whole shroud.

1473  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: ATTN Litecoin GPU Miners - Scrypt support for cgminer on: July 26, 2012, 07:32:21 PM

Actually 40% you probably should add this also:
export GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS=0


What does that command do exactly? I know that setting this variable to 1 solved the 100% CPU bug for some, but I've never found any explanation of it.
pretty sure it locks the CPU usage to one core.  99% sure.
1474  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: BAMT version 0.5 - Easy USB based mining Linux with farm wide management tools on: July 26, 2012, 07:01:09 PM
Why does the BAMT web interface show an error when I unplug the GPU from a monitor?

__.....__ .' ':, / __ _ __ \\ | |_)) || |_))|| | | \\ || | || | || _, | status.pl ||.-(_{} | |/ ` | ,_ (;|/) \\| {}_)-,||` \\;/,,;;;;;;;,\\|//, .;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;, ,;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;,// \\;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;,// ,';;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;' One of the BAMT tools has suffered a fatal error. Can't use an undefined value as a HASH reference at /usr/lib/cgi-bin/status.pl line 88. Defiled: Unable to record this travesty in the deathlog! Why?: Permission denied

I find a good practice is not to have a monitor connected at all.  Once you know the IP, format BAMT fresh, then just SSH in.  Bamt does wonky things when you unplug the monitor.

well i have to have a monitor to tell the board where to boot to
Set the default in the BIOS.

doesn't work for me

sd card reader for now

Yeah, pick up a 2GB for like $6, it will save you some frustration.

quickly how can i transfer my configuration from one installation to another? (for example, changing usb keys)

copied batm.conf and pools and when the system starts up it just overwrites them with older versions

have your bamt.conf (and/or cgminer.conf) in text files on your computer, then when you ssh into the box,

cd /etc/bamt/
rm bamt.conf
nano bamt.conf
paste your conf into the putty window by right clicking
save

1477  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Statement about the suspect of recent Bitcoinica hack on: July 26, 2012, 04:46:54 PM
We're not talking about $20, this is like hundreds of thousands of dollars.  We could have almost bought a half dozen Ferraris with the money that has been stolen from Bitcoinica's customers.  Even if you didn't take the money, you were responsible and IMHO it should be YOUR loss.  Since there is a direct link between you and the hack, as outlined in your "Truth 4: Even though there's evidence showing that I'm linked to this hack, I have absolutely no relationship with all previous hacks.", that means you are practically admitting to be involved in this hack.  I think that you should have to pay it back AND suffer a penalty.  If you steal a car, your penalty is not giving the car back, it's giving the car back PLUS JAILTIME BRO.

Is anyone interested in last 50 BTC, first 25 BTC or some other exotic uncirculated coins ?
We can negotiate this.
I think they should be auctioned off!  Think about what the genesis block is worth right now?

Do it! You will only gain the profit the auction brings. 
1480  Bitcoin / Pools / Re: Quick question about the fees included in found blocks, do pools pay us these? on: July 26, 2012, 12:34:41 AM
Depends on the pool.  Some do.  Some don't.

From personal experience IIRC Bitminter and p2pool both payout 100% of fees.


No idea if this is accurate but if it is it looks like only a small % of pools payout fees:
https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Comparison_of_mining_pools


Hmm: Bitminter is the largest no fee, hop proof pool which also pays out transaction fees.  I knew I liked them for some reason. Smiley
Excellent!  I might move to Bitminter now...  I wish they were a little bigger, but at least they would get blocks with some decent frequency. 

p2pool also looks very tempting.  I would rather see p2pool become more powerful than any of them. 

After a google, I found this link that shows average fees per block..  Pretty out of date though, what do fees look like nowadays?
