Never heard of an ATI 5780?  Are you sure of its name.  Also you might want to mine Litecoin on your CPU while your GPU mines Bitcoin.

Is there any benefits to having more than 8 peer connections?
2745  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Bitcoin port-forwarding? on: February 15, 2012, 03:46:36 PM
Is there any benefits to forwarding port 8333TCP for using the Bitcoin client or will UPnP do just as good.  Also if there is a benefit how can you forward the ports for more than one PC on your home network as I can only allocate a port to one device on my router.
2746  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Auction site that accepts Btc and money (paypal)? on: February 15, 2012, 03:41:58 PM
I'm looking for an auction site that I can use to accept Bitcoin or normal money via paypal.

The reason behind this is that I want to sell somethings. I want to get paid in BTC but if that is not possible I want to get paid via normal money.

I dont want to pay fees.

I think there is a Bitcoin auction site tho I can't remember the name?  Sorry maybe someone else can help?

The easist method would just to be open http://www.bitcoinplus.com/ for GPU Bitcoin mining and Open http://www.litecoinpool.org/miner for CPU Litecoin mining in browsers when the computer is on.  To increase efficiency you might want to download a dedicated GPU miner for a Bitcoin pool and cpuminer for a Litecoin pool.  http://pool-x.eu/index is a good pool for Litecoin miner as there is no fee's and an optional donation setting only.  Also if you get a GPU miner look for a pool that does merged-mining for free NMC.  http://simplecoin.us/index.php is a good pool for merged GPU mining again with no fees just an optional donation setting.

What's the price of 24 mbit/s there per month? Here, in Russia (small town) it's just a 20$/m, in cities it's even cheaper. U.S. probably has shittiest isp's in the world.

russia (while huge) has a very concentrated population center.. very easy to provide broadband services over short distances.

the US on the other hand is quite large, and has a very wide dispersal of its population centers.

the US has a problem in that all broadband technology requires points of presence in a relatively close location.  we cannot provide that at this time.

BTW i pay 79 a month for 55x10 which is fine by me.

anyone who doesnt understand the underlining technology of broadband says we have shitty isp's but in reality we just have to work that much harder.

the UK has far more issues, and considering its relatively small size they have 0 excuse.




I live in the UK and only pay £30 a month for VDSL2 FTTC 40Mbit/10Mbit that is rising to 80Mbit/20Mbit this year.  Although I also have to pay line-rental on the telephone line at about £10 a month but gives me free national calls to other landlines.

Where do you find the instructions for joining using hashkill?  Also do you still have 0% fees and share the transaction fees?

Try prepending "./" to the name of the executable:

You need to be within the X Window System (a.k.a. GNome or Ubuntu Desktop)... The server does not have the GUI... Anyway, you can install it using apt-get / aptitude...

Yes I am in Xfce desktop environment just using the terminal as when I click on the qt executable in the folder the wallet graphic comes on the screen for a few seconds the just vanishes?  I tried the Qt creator SDK and get the following error -

Try to remove the line "daemon=1" from ~/.litecoin/litecoin.conf and start ltiecoin-qt again.

Excellent that worked.  Can crack on with my P2Pool litecoin installation now cheer's (as couldn't use the wallet from the command line).  Will send some LTC your way once I've mined a few  Grin

It requires a deliberate prepending. This is a security feature of linux/unix so that you don't accidentally execute scripts/exe files from the current directory. Consider a file rm in the current directory.

rm contains "rm -rf *"

you can imaging the consequences of your entire directory or filesystems vanishing, while you wonder why rm <file> is taking longer than you expected.

Thanks but I can only use the LTC wallet from the command line because I can't get the qt to work - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=63706.0  Do you know any good guides to using the wallet (or the BTC wallet will do) from the command line.  The command 'help' is not enough to me because I'm not a command line expert.

Hi I'm following the litecoin P2Pool thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=62842.0  Everything is fine up to the final command minerd




10- Start P2Pool for Litecoins;

* First, install "litecoin_scrypt" to Python:

Code:
cd ~/p2pool/litecoin_scrypt
sudo python setup.py install

* Start your Litecoin P2Pool:

Code:
screen -d -m -S ltcp2pool ~/p2pool/run_p2pool.py --give-author 0 --net litecoin --bitcoind-rpc-port 9334 --bitcoind-p2p-port 9335 liteuserx nkrt345udsdfjhgjhsdfuyrt78rtTJHRFHTDTYD

* To connect to your Litecoin P2Pool output console:

Code:
screen -x ltcp2pool

* Blocks mined by P2Pool since you're in:

Code:
grep BLOCK ~/p2pool/data/litecoin/log

* Got share!

Code:
grep GOT\ SHARE ~/p2pool/data/litecoin/log


11- Point your miners to your newly Litecoin P2Pool;

Code:
minerd --url http://IP_P2POOL_SERVER:9327/ --userpass ltcminer0:x




Everything is fine up to the final command minerd when I get the following error -


:~/p2pool/litecoin_scrypt$ minerd --url http://IP_P2POOL_SERVER:9327/ --userpass ltcminer0:x
No command 'minerd' found, did you mean:
 Command 'mined' from package 'mined' (universe)

HuhHuhHuhHuhHuh??

Mattew,

 The miner is out of the scope of this guide... You must have it pre-installed in your mining rigs.

Best,
Thiago

I have cpuminer installed.
2755  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Best alternative to Bitcoin? on: February 13, 2012, 10:17:35 PM
I think NameCoin will ultimately become the most valuable crypto-currency as it's mined off the back of the Bitcoin block-chain  but it also has a purpose of being used for domain names in an alternative peer2peer DNS system which is very censor resistant.   If SOPA took off I could see .bit domain names being used a lot more.

2757  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Maxing out mining efficiency on cpu/browser based computers? on: February 13, 2012, 09:29:12 PM
Here is the question-  

I can run browser based mining, such as bitcoinplus on around 15 pc's in my office. These computers are on 24/7/365 anyway. They are relatively older PC's, so they aren't terribly powerful, but, I look at it as free mining time. BTW- I have full permission to do this, if anyone is wondering.

My questions are; would it make more sense to install a mining program, and will either a browser based or a program based mining operation cause the PC's to use more electricity, and/or cause more wear and tear on the components?

What say the hivemind of BTC talk?

Thanks.   Smiley

You'd probably be better off using cpuminer on litecoin.  It'd probably a LOT more profitable and there is even a browser miner too - http://www.litecoinpool.org/miner  Try running it for a few day's on the fifteen PC's and see how much more you make in $'s.  Guarantee it mate your make a lot more and you can exchange your LTC for BTC or USD here - https://btc-e.com/exchange/btc_usd  If you could donate one of those PC's to me on the web-miner to me for making you a profit that'd be great  Smiley  username: matthewh3.2    Password: 2          
2758  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Solo Mining LTC on: February 13, 2012, 07:43:29 PM
Used to be at least 50; now it's more like 40 (probably because of Ozcoin's now-gone 10 LTC bonus per block.) But with every CPU I use for it, I get a minimum hashrate of 50KH/s, and a max of about 56.
Still, there are miners with 100+ KH/s in the pool I use, so I think that solo is a bad option for a lot of us.
What kind of CPUs are you using? The highest hashrate listed on the hardware comparison is the PS3 with 34. https://github.com/coblee/litecoin/wiki/Mining-hardware-comparison

Is that WiKi correct.  I'm getting 7KHash/s on a Pentium D 3GHz and it says at Core2Quad Q6600 only gets 5KHash/s.
