The falling knife ain't going to happen. If it falls a dollar, there will be a lot of purchasing to take advantage of the new price, the price hikes will continue.

You know how if you bought a 1970 Hemi Cuda back when they were brand new, you could have bought it for a few thousand dollars and if you didn't ruin it, you could sell it for MILLIONS of dollars today? That's like right now you can buy bitcoin at a few dollars and left it for ten years and then all of a sudden bitcoin is worth $10,000 per coin, you'll be like DAMN it was so unfair of myself to not purchase more bitcoins back in the day! Same thing. Some people are just going to miss out on the bitcoin profits but it's hardly unfair.

Never trust companies to hang onto your bitcoin! This was lesson #1 and a lot of people learned it with this fiasco. The administrators of mybitcoin should lined up and shot.

i figured you could put the DISPLAY=:0 in the script, i haven't quite figured the script out, if i run the script as a launcher on the desktop, it says "Failed to execute child process "/mining/miningscript.sh" (Permission denied)." and googling around, others seem to have the permissions blues like me. the *.conf file is a huge help though. I know this isn't the ubuntu forums, but here's my script right now: #!/bin/sh
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ export DISPLAY=:0
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ /mining/cgminer -c cgminer.conf that's basically from my research, functional. but then the permissions thing stops us. if i right click on "mining" (folder) and open a terminal there, and execute the script, it will error out saying not found. so something is broken in my script plus the permissions arn't working for the shortcut, but i'm not overly concerned because TeamViewer works fine, and I plan on making a few copies of this USB to put in all my systems so I can run them without HDD's, and if i can TeamView in there, I can just start the miners manually. Did you set an intensity? Cause the default settings (not using -k -w -v or -q) usually are better than anything you set, whereas the intensity is set to low and dynamic by default.
i never really messed with intensity before, but wow. i set the intensity to 10 and i could feel the heat jump up. the 2nd card didn't like the 1st card being at 10 intensity and then i noticed that my whole interface was right down to a crawl. setting it to 8 intensity on one card and 6 on the other, the numbers just jumped around like crazy. i noticed that i set the conf file to have d,d as the intensity. is d=dedicated, the one to go with? i just modified example.conf and they had it to d,9,9,9 so i figured d,d was good for my setup. |

yup, i seem to have that strange USB booting issue, where 50% of the time it can't see the USB device and i need to turn off the computer to get it working again. at first i thought i borked the USB stick somehow and i didn't test it for another hour or so, just before i was going to format it and try it again i figured it was worth a shot and it worked perfectly. and then every like 2 restarts it needs to sleep for a second and it goes. i know i should have posted in an ubuntu forum for the shortcut aspect of this, but i knew you guys would have the answer in like 2 seconds. this has been highly educational, i did as much work as possible before asking questions, and basically the " ./ " in front of the command seemed to be the only thing i was missing. and i printed out the instructions from the thread on how to install cgminer from USB, and on the next page of the instructions it says "export DISPLAY=:0 before running cgminer" ... if i only had read it. following your advice, i'm now attempting the shortcut! thx guys  |

this cgminer is incredible. it's so interactive for being a command line interface.
is it normal that my speeds are lower than what they were in windows using guiminer 8/24?
5870 @ 910MHz I was getting around 410ish and now i'm getting 395ish MH/s, which is pretty close. edit: y'know nevermind this is working pretty good as it is!
also: is there a way in linux to make a command string attached to a shortcut, like windows?
edit: basically i want to be able to click a button and have it do the 'export DISPLAY=:0' and then the login string all in 1 click. possible?

1 quick google, and i found this post in this thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=28402.msg652180#msg652180so now after telling it export DISPLAY=:0 it shows 2 gpu devices, right on! aahhhhhhhhh my password was typed in wrong! duh! so now it's WORKING! this is awesome! i can now make my computers boot from USB and i have HDD's to spare! awesome, thx for the pointers guys, now i am playing with POWWWAAAARRRRRRR!! |

do i have to install the cgminer, or just leave it in the folder? in the instructions there was something about a 'make' command.
"Installation" usually means putting the binary and support files somewhere they can be used and configuring the environment to be able to use them. Some programs, like cgminer, don't care where they are, so putting them in any old directory is an "installation". (in short: saying "installing" is just marketing) i tried with the ./ in front and got the same error.
CGMINER: command not found.
If that error message was copy & pasted: In Linux, case matters; make sure you don't capitalise stuff that you shouldn't. You can launch cgminer from anywhere if you specify the whole path when running it, in you case "~/mining/cgminer <options>" should do that. is there a reason why it would only say 1 GPU is ready instead of 2?
That probably means it can only use one. thx for the heads up on the case-senstitivity of linux, i've been using it for all of a few minutes, and that's good to know. ok so i'm getting more success this time when i try, it keeps telling me my username/password for the pool is wrong, which means it's 99% of the way there! here's a screen so far. not sure why it wont accept my logon info though. http://img267.imageshack.us/img267/2478/screen2hb.jpg |

It should work from any directory. Since you were able to get it to say "1 device found", that sounds like it is already compiled and should be working. Were you in the directory that contained the cgminer binary when you issued that command? It would only work from within the folder. oh from any directory, thats awesome. i didn't.. compile anything, and i have 2 cards in the system which i thought it should be seeing. if i go 'sudo aticonfig --lsa' it shows both the cards and the temperatures on each. |

PLEASE help, shed a little light, im moments away from success! i anxiously await reply.
Instead of cgminer -o http://us.eclipsemc.com:8337 -u username -p password use ./cgminer -o http://us.eclipsemc.com:8337 -u username -p password The ./ means look in the current folder (which it does not do by default, unlike Windows). do i have to install the cgminer, or just leave it in the folder? in the instructions there was something about a 'make' command. i tried with the ./ in front and got the same error. |

i wonder if someone could please help me set up cgminer with ubuntu. i'm a total linux n00b, but i'm pretty clever, and i'm at a wall right now which is extremely frustrating because i'm like moments away from success. so i followed this tutorial: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=28402.msg426741#msg426741FANTASTIC tutorial, seriously, I haven't used linux EVER and after downloading the ISO, booting from USB, bam. good to go. i got the ATI drivers installed, OpenCL installed, good to go. now step 13: is sorta like.. easy to understand if you are a linux pro, but i had a hard enough time changing directories in the terminal. so i.. sudo apt-get install curl and then it installs that. i got the linux binary and then its a random file compression thing ive never heard of. i assume i put this somewhere? so i create a folder called mining, put it in there, take the files out of the subfolder it created and put them right in the /mining/ folder. and so if i right click on "mining" and tell it to open a terminal here, pops up a terminal, and then i type ./cgminer -n and it says "1 GPU Device found" great, so then can i start mining now? i dont know exactly what command string to use. in the 1st post there are some examples there, let's try... cgminer -o http://pool:port -u username -p password so i change it to cgminer -o http://us.eclipsemc.com:8337 -u username -p password ^ and i changed username to be the worker name, right? and i get the error CGMINER: command not found. PLEASE help, shed a little light, im moments away from success! i anxiously await reply. |
