Fans dont really work i tried usb case fans, flexible fans, and desk fans they still get hot.

So?  Mine are just sat beside the Corsair CX750 PSU that runs my Blades.  The slight breeze of it's 140mm fan is enough.

I sold mine last month.  Sold them for the same I bought them for 6 months previous (Gigabyte 7950 Windforce X3).

Only if your old router is broken...

You are mistaken.

But I then just went out and spent $100 on a new router after a day of monkeying with it and being on the phone w/ telcom company.


So, I'm not mistaken then, by your own example.  Derp.  Roll Eyes

stratum_proxy without a doubt.  I ran it for a while with 40 CPU miners doing LTC mining.  Worked perfectly.  It needs very little to run - I ran it on a Pentium D machine with 1GB RAM and Windows XP (old Dell GX620).

Phew, 149M.  My daily income dropped from a feeble BTC0.13 to a even more feeble BTC0.9.  Cry

That would be an increase then Smiley

I wish lol.  0.09 Cheesy

You didn't actually ask a question.  You made two statements.

Maybe if you mined, you'd have some money?

Because the latest I could find for ubuntu was 0.9.3, unless it's super easy to take from another build of linux and toss it into 12.04. Would be interested to hearing how you did it.

I'm pretty sure it was a apt-get or git install - I don't remember.  It was pretty simple even for a linux n00b like me.

Related: Are there any reccomendations for a good linux build to run BFG solely for getwork proxy ? I use headless ubuntu 12.04 right now but libmicrohttpd-dev is old, and I was hoping to simply install a new distro than trying to duct-tape something together. Willing to do that if necessary though.

Why not, you know, update libmicrohttpd-dev?   Huh 

It runs OK off Ubuntu 13.04 Server OK for me.

Just cut a cheap USB cable, and solder it on. 
2116  Bitcoin / Pools / Re: [13000GH/s] p2pool: Decentralized, DoS-resistant, Hop-Proof pool on: September 24, 2013, 07:43:04 AM

P2pool will never be a "real" pool until the compatibility issues are sorted out. When noobs can come along, plug in & play, the pool will grow to be what it deserves to be, like every other pool has. Until then, for me anyway, it's a toy to play with - a learning process - but a fun one. it might even payout once or twice. If you're lucky  Cheesy Cheesy.

Agreed.  It's easy enough to set up, once you've spent 24 hours figuring it out.  If there was some sort of installer, or if p2pool was just an executable that didn't need all the faffing, I think a lot more folks would run it.

On the Windows end of things, all it needs is an installer that adds the bitcoin.conf files, asks a few questions, opens a few ports, job done.  But, it seems linux is the main focus of bitcoin software authors, despite a huge proportion of people running Windows.  It all smacks of elitism.   But, hey, I'm just an IT administrator from the world of Windows, who started out in the days of NT3.51, what would I know?
 
2117  Bitcoin / Pools / Re: [13000GH/s] p2pool: Decentralized, DoS-resistant, Hop-Proof pool on: September 24, 2013, 07:29:17 AM

Out of curiosity, what are your returns like?  I have 30GH on p2pool, you have 35GH on a larger pool, so our results should be close.  I've been on p2pool for a while now and I'm wondering if you're making enough more than me for it to be worth switching.  So far in the month of September I've made 3.567564 BTC.  If you're within 10% of that I'm staying because I like the idea of p2pool. If you need a different date range to compare let me know.


With various faffing about, my average over the past 24 hours has been 31GH/s (one of my Blades was a bit sick, needed more power to stabilise it), I got BTC0.167 on EclipseMC.  I've only just moved there to see how it goes.  Eligius was paying out around 25 hours, and I think they pay out around 0.167 too.

Taking 23 full days in September so far, that's about BTC3.841.   Ignoring variance, of course.

Edit: Actual figures according to EMC are 0.16704727620043 / 24 hours

I'm not sure my internet is good enough to be hosting a p2pool node, either.  I'm just on 12/1Mb ADSL.  It's not the quickest, and probably quite latent when other things happen, despite QoS.
2119  Bitcoin / Group buys / Re: [EU/UK GROUP BUY] Blue Fury USB miner 2.2 - 2.7 GH/s on: September 23, 2013, 05:21:32 PM
I hope to be running mine off my OpenWRT miner-of-doom (TPLink TL-WR703N micro-router) along with the Block Erupters.  Got to love running miners off a router smaller than a small matchbox, that also uses less power than one of the USB miners.
2120  Bitcoin / Pools / Re: [13000GH/s] p2pool: Decentralized, DoS-resistant, Hop-Proof pool on: September 23, 2013, 05:07:48 PM

When was that? Before or after the last protocol fork (which made it efficient with most ASICs) which happened in July? If it was after the fork it's surprising as it should have solved these problems.


It was running 13.3.  I'll maybe have another go with it sometime, perhaps there was something strange with my install, or I missed something.  I'm pretty sure I did everything I should have, though.

I'm rejiggering my workstation in the next few days, including a fresh install, so I'll see if I can have another go.

Still, all that said, I'm still getting far better returns from a larger pool than I did on p2pool.
