201  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Nefario on: November 17, 2012, 10:22:31 PM
"the one who successfully prepared sophisticated concept, mechanism and protocol of Bitcoin" -Pirateat40, who is a born scammer, made many scams before,
still, welcomed with RED carpet & given half million coins as GIFT.

There was nothing sophisticated about pirate's scam.

Heh. More like the users who invested with him were dumb as bricks and the scam, to them, was highly sophisticated.
That goes for a lot of the crap around this forum. Many people here are really really naive.

And a decent number of them call you names or insult you for pointing out why they should be cautious.

So true and if not the person you advised one of the ass kissing for bad behaviour/shill accounts on here will jump on for sure.

Try BitMit.net, it's great!

Yes it is not bad and if the OP is really going to sell at 6%-12% plus shipping he should make a mint so to speak as most silver at least I have seen on there is priced at 20-25% over spot. BTW OP go for the escrow option when listing I won't purchase anything without it and I'm pretty sure others feel the same way.

Edit: Oh and there is always direct sales here people do it all the time. Most people when buying here want a picture of the item(s) being sold with your user name and the date written on piece of paper and of course the always popular and prudent escrow option.

Yes.  You must have missed the second post where I pointed out I discovered what the cause was.  Don't be a dick, you get dick back.  

Well idiot you said ram was the problem in second post so if you want to be smart ass at least get your facts straight.

I think they came out at first promising 27Gh/s at $600 for the first batch but suddenly the same product is now $1069 with 54Gh/s capability?  Huh And neither company is offering an easily refundable payment method.

It was $1069 at 27gh/s when I ordered for that unit since increased to 54gh/s for the same money. If I want refund of my money paid for the bASIC all I have to do is ask for it before assembly of the boards start, this has been stated repeatedly by the owner Tom.

Yeah looks like I'll save more money for christmas. Damn I really wish I hopped on in 2009 when I first heard of it, but I didn't have the funds to build GPU mining rigs. Thanks for the replies.

I think you have your dates a little mixed up I seen timeline graph last night where it said the first gpu miner poclbm was released in october 2010 roughly six months before I heard of it and damn would I ever have loved to have heard of it earlier as I would have had the same amount to spend on it as I did in the end anyways at that later date, christ all them low diff coins I missed..

Oh well I heard of bitcoins in late 2009 and my friend was trying to build a rig mid 2010, but I still wasn't making much money so now I'm much more comfortable and can spend 2-3 grand on a setup if it can pay itself back. Obviously I would want to start at a smaller setup but it looks like right now we're at a stand still on what to do because of ASCI and the 25BTC/Block change that's going to occur soon

I guess the question that I should look into is, will the increase in difficulty be greater than the increase in processing power. (in terms of the values of btc), if suddenly we can process tons and tons of bitcoins wouldn't the market value slowly decline, and even with ASCI if it becomes harder in general as a whole to finish blocks will that mean that the price will rise? Just a thought

Probably your most prudent idea is as others have suggested wait until the ASIC shakeout is over do the numbers then invest if it makes sense. Now the only people that will be getting tons of bitcoin are the ones that get these ASIC off the start they will have shitloads to begin with after the massive diff increases caused by there introduction the return on these things is going to drop dramatically. Also mining does not really have much to do with the price of bitcoin the amount of coins that move every day is a good multiple of the coins produced, almost all the pricing is due to the speculators manipulating the market up/down to fleece the rubes.

I've had some safeguards against the "lost connection" crash in BFGMiner for a while. If anyone wants to tell Con (he likes to ignore me), the problem is that the submission threads pile up (as they sit around trying to retry) and Windows doesn't like having a lot of threads.

Figures it would be windows problem, no wonder I have never seen it. And there you are quoted so he sees it..

Someone please tell me I'm not the only one that haves CGMiner crashed when internet connection is down. As soon as I unplug my ethernet cable, cgminer crashes. Turn off ADSL modem, CGMiner crashes.

Looks like you may be it has not happened recently but any time in the past when I have had to reboot my cable modem cgminer just tells me it has lost connection with pool when the modem comes back up the miner sees the connection gets work then starts mining, last time I rebooted it was couple weeks ago.

So who ends up with that final amount, a partial payment on the withdrawal or you?

There are a few ways we could handle this. How about the one who withdraws gets the remainder of the pot?

That seems like the way to do it.

You have learned absolutely nothing from this fiasco. I hope you are in the minority.


From what I have seen here I highly doubt it, seems like they have never met a scam they would not like to throw their money away on around here..
214  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Nefario on: November 09, 2012, 02:23:26 AM
I think that would be to hard for a bet. Think about how much he would lose. The ceo-income plus the share-dividends as a shareholder. I doubt he would risk this with a bet.

My bet is that some big asset issuer(s?) paid him more to close the shop and take the blame.

That would mean it has to be someone that collected so much IPO-Money that he could pay nefario that much btc that he would throw his connections to the community away and the earnings he would get form ceo-job and his shares of glbse. So i think the one would need to pay him 3 or 4 years worth of income. I wonder if there are asset issuers that collected that much money plus money so that its worth for them too. But to be honest i doubt that nefario would kill his little baby glbse only for such thing.

An alternative to payment could be if the legal problems are true an issuer being behind it and yes there were some/at least one that got the suckers on here for $100k+.

Yeah I'm trying to find the peak under 9 right now. Thanks for the tip and the config file. I was just using the auto-generated one.

 And yes the export command did work for that, however I still only can get GPU 0 to mine  Sad

You can put I think it is -D -T on the end of your startup command to get the debug output this may be worth try.

Edit: Also the official support thread link is below you may want to post the debug info there I don't really have clue how to read that.

Oh sorry i have intensity turned off on GPU 1 in the config so I can get an accurate reading on GPU 0's hash rate. The values I posted of the hash rate show I:14 for both GPUs

Yes I had seen that as well still does not change the idea that it is way to high for BTC mining anything above 9 was added for LTC mining, try the simplified .conf file it should just work.

           Current Clocks :    725           150
             Current Peak :    725           150
  Configurable Peak Range : [550-1000]     [150-1500]

  Configurable Peak Range : [550-1000]     [150-1500]
                 GPU load :    0%

Here is the displayed hash rate in cgminer
Code:
GPU 0:  51.0C 4551RPM | 166.3M/172.1Mh/s | A:15 R:0 HW:0 U:2.00/m I:14
 GPU 1:  34.0C 4545RPM | 199.2M/148.2Mh/s | A:14 R:0 HW:0 U:1.87/m I:14

These numbers always add to the expected hash rate for GPU 0 only.

After using aticonfig to overclock the --odgc reports:
Code:
Adapter 0 - ATI Radeon HD 5900 Series
                            Core (MHz)    Memory (MHz)
           Current Clocks :    750           150

  Configurable Peak Range : [550-1000]     [150-1500]
                 GPU load :    0%

I'm completely stuck. Somehow cgminer is convinced that two of the threads are running on GPU 1 when really all four are on GPU 0.

No your config file tells it to not use the second gpu with this "intensity" : "14,0", you have an intensity of 0 second gpu which is off/don't use, now as I understand it nothing over 9 is for BTC mining so that should be at most 9 and I never found that anything above 8 gave me more hashes on BTC for my cards. You also have lot of extra junk in that file try mine I posted earlier with your pool in there it should just work giving you about ~365mh/s per core. Oh and your export command did work as you see temperatures listed without it you will not see any.
219  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: CGMiner on Ubuntu Hangs on Startup on: November 08, 2012, 08:33:48 PM
Ok I've almost got everything working. My last problem is that both GPUs are detected and it says they both are hashing at about half of normal rate, but the activity on the second GPU is 0% and the clock is running at idle speeds. if I set the intensity on the second GPU to 0 then it reports that GPU 0 is hashing at normal rate and GPU 1 is barely hashing. I tried using the --gpu-map option to swap the GPUs, and the hardware reports are switched appropriately but the (already incorrect) hash rate reports are unchanged. If I could at least choose which GPU to run then I could run two instances of CGMiner, one for each GPU.

Should be no need for second cgminer instance. Can you post the --odgc output when it is running, the cgminer.conf you are using and the command on starting it. Now most times on litecoin mining it will not set the clocks properly for me or even if it shows the clock properly set it seems to get stuck at lower than expected hash rate this is when I need to set the clock manually which seems to jump start it to proper hash rate, this is sometimes needed to be done a couple of times in a row for it to work. This may be worth try here the clock setting command example below, the engine speed is first followed by memory then the adapter (card) you want to set it on.

Code:

DISPLAY=:0 aticonfig --od-setclocks=770,1050 --adapter=0
