I love recaptcha, using the wasted billions of hours of work to actually do something useful, transferring books to digital format one word at a time.

When I saw the name, Bare-games, I immediately thought of nudity, mmmmmm, but somehow I doubt there is any.  Oh well.  I'll try it anyway.

So, uhm, I'm not a developer, and I've never used GIT.  I'm downloading GIT for windows, msysgit, and I'm going to install it.  Will this enable me to somehow get a version of bitcoin running that will let me do dumpwallet, and import wallet?

Ooo, post a pic, I wanna see.

Darn it, I don't know how to recompile things on windows.  It's easy on linux, just type make, and everything is pre-scripted and it just works.  On windows I have no clue.  As for bitcointools, I tried that already, those hung transactions still are not announcing and being processed, so I want them Gone, deleted, removed.  How do I do that with bitcointools?  The only way I can see is to dump my wallet as a text file, then import that into a new wallet, not including the hung transactions and whatever it is that is causing the problem.  But, I can't do that without "dumpwallet" and the other great RPC commands that I have no ability to use at the moment.

Yup, that's the one, and yes, those are the features I need.  I found the github branch with a download of stuff that supposedly patches those RPC commands into bitcoin, but, after extracting it nothing was installed or patched, and I don't know what to do.  I want to dump my wallet, and only have the stuff I want, not the hung or damaged stuff, and then import the good stuff into a new wallet, a fresh start.  Please please please, someone put it into the main branch so it gets included in the next official release!

Hello?  Anyone ever look at this thread anymore?  I downloaded the tarball for this, extracted it into my bitcoin folder, and ran bitcoin, only to find that these new RPC commands are not included/installed.  What do I do?  I don't know C++, I'm not a great programmer, I don't know how to make this work.  Help?  Please?

If that works, I'll be very very happy, OMG!!  You're the best Gavin.

I finally managed to figure out how to run it, and then it spouted an error I don't understand.  Here is the text:


Well, it didn't fix the wallet the way I wanted it to, it still had the hung transactions on it.  I want to Remove those hung transactions, and fix whatever caused them, Or fix whatever is causing it so that they will stop being hung. 

I see it now.   Good job, heck, I'd like to tip you something just for your taste in Sci-fi, Ha!

Yah, I can't use my GPU, because even though I finally managed to get OpenCL installed, none of the OpenCL miners actually say I have an OpenCL capable GPU, so they just use the CPU anyway, might as well not have OpenCL.

I just figured out how to make guiminer automatically start a miner, I had forgotten about something I saw back when I first started using guiminer.  Run guiminer manually, then click on View menu, and Show Summary, which shows you all your miners in one window... along with Auto Start checkboxes for them.  Click which ever ones you want to auto start as soon as guiminer starts, and there you go.  And now I'm wondering why whileidle always shuts itself off when the system stops being idle, I thought it would only shut off the guiminer, which it does brilliantly by the way.  So since whileidle shuts off every time, I can't count on it to always be running, so, I'm going to try using the built in Scheduled Tasks system for windows.  I've used it before, it always works great.  I've set it up just now to run guiminer Only when Idle, and to shut off guiminer when the computer is no longer idle.  Plus, it has a great feature of never running this CPU intensive process on battery power.

Ok, System Scheduler is great at shutting down guiminer when the system isn't idle anymore, but does not shut down the miners that guiminer is running, so, I changed it to run whileidle.exe instead, and that is working out great.  One problem with whileidle I forgot to mention, in the settings file for it, when I switch it to not hide the program it's running, well, it still hides it.  The guiminer icon appears in the system taskbar, but no window pops up so I can see the khash/s.

Ok, it's saying invalid email address, even though it IS a valid email address.  Go on, try sending an email to krepta3000+validemail@gmail.com.  I know for a fact that this is a valid email address format, the plus sign is not rejected by gmail, it's in fact a Feature.  A feature I like using now that I know about it.

I don't see your picture.   What went wrong?

I don't understand why this is not working right.  Sure, it runs guiminer, but guiminer just sits there doing nothing.  Normally the task manager tells me the CPU is at 100% when a miner is running.  But the CPU just idles after guiminer starts.  Nothing happens.  How do I set guiminer to automatically start a miner?

I'm so confused trying to read this thread.  I really like BitBills, plastic cards containing Bitcoins, very cool concept.

Thanks SleepMachine! 

Oh, I forgot to mention that since my attempt at installing OpenCL on this computer, and installing the newest RPC screensavers, the 4way screensaver is only able to do about 20 khash/s, rather than the 300 or so it was doing before. 

I don't know why.  But GUI miner, loading the 4way RPC miner executable works fine, it's just that I can't do much of anything while that's running, even on Lowest CPU priority, it hogs the system somehow, still.  I don't understand how.

As for the program you made SleepMachine, will it shut off when Dad switches to his desktop, the way the screensaver does?

Yay, thanks.   Now I just need to figure out how to dump my broken wallet, and import only the good stuff into a new wallet.  Grrr!

Nothing happens.  Nothing at all, no error code, no next page of any kind.  I fill out the things to register, I click register, and all the stuff I filled in just vanishes and I'm just on the same page, no change at all.  Nothing Happens.  I wish I could figure it out from here.

I don't understand how to use these RPC commands to dump my screwed up wallet, and import the undamaged portion into a new wallet.  In other words, manually construct a wallet that doesn't include the hung transactions.  I have looked at the RPC commands my bitcoin client accepts, and these commands you list on this thread are not included.  What do I do?

I could, I just don't want to, because I'm very irritated by that site now.  Is it really worth having a second account on a site that's not working?  Fine, it's not that difficult, I'll make another account on the fraking site.

This is the first time I've ever vandalized a USD bill, believe it or not.  At least that I can remember.  Maybe when I was really little, but I dunno.

These pictures are from the same $5 bill, the only USD money I have.  And if you feel like it, you can send bitcoins to my Bit-Bank.org address, http://bit-bank.org/user/Krepta3000# 19ABdEVj3hoP98phetsUkCypdcXimTaY1F.  I had an account on Mybitcoin.org, but am no longer able to log in for some reason, and the only method of Contacting anyone there requires me to log in, soooooo, since my account is empty, I don't care anymore, I'm no longer going to use that site.
