Thanks for that Max, lets get some people to test it maybe even make a Thread so Mac users can see it, and we will put it up if it's working properly. Thank You for the help! Smiley

No problem, it was a big help for me. Smiley I'll start a thread.

Hi! Posted this in the main WDC thread, and pizza suggested posting it here:

I've compiled a Mac version of the Worldcoin wallet. It works well on my Mac, and is way better than opening up Parallels to run the Windows wallet, so I'm sharing it in case anybody else finds it useful.

This build is from the latest Github sources as of this morning. I built the app on Mountain Lion, and I think it should work on Lion and above. I'm not so sure about Snow Leopard and below. Until a few other people try it out, I would treat it as beta software, and back up your wallet.dat early and often.

Give it a try, let me know how it works!

I used the Mac compilation steps that we've been discussing on this thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=205017.0

Bump. Still have Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon.
405  Economy / Computer hardware / [CLOSED] EVGA GTX 285 Mac Edition - 1.2BTC - ESCROW on: May 20, 2013, 06:19:18 PM
I'm selling an EVGA NVIDIA GTX 285 graphics card:

Note that this is the Mac Edition. It will work great in a Mac Pro 2008 or later (under OS X or in Boot Camp), but it won't work in a normal PC. It's not the best miner out there, but it's great for gaming and/or pro graphics work. It saw 3 1/2 years of moderate use and never had any problems, but it ended up on a shelf when I upgraded to an iMac a few months ago.

Here are the specs, from the EVGA site:
Core Clock Speed: 648MHz
Processing Cores: 240
Memory Clock Speed: 2484MHz
Memory Bandwidth: 159GB/sec
Shader Clock Speed: 1476MHz
Bus: PCI-E 2.0
Interface: DVI-I, DVI-I

This is not a flashed PC card--this is the real thing, made for Mac. I'm asking BTC1.2 for it, with free shipping (USPS Priority Mail or UPS Ground, USA only). I'll pay escrow fees.

Can anyone explain to me why I can't get past block 12094? I understand there is a checkpoint there, but I have the newest sources and its just... stuck, hours now. Any help would be nice Smiley

I'm having the same problem. I saw in another thread that you seemed to have resolved this. Any hints??
407  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Compiling Mac Clients for ANY Alt Coin, Your Choice! on: May 18, 2013, 09:28:15 PM
Just a quick update: Ran into some issues with the latest Devcoin client. Got it compiled and deployed okay, and it starts up fine, but crashes after a few seconds - appears to be a memory leak. Troubleshooting and will update later.

The one problem with writing an all-inclusive guide is that some of these alt coins' source code seem to be more Mac friendly or less Mac friendly depending on their author. Mincoin appears to have been very Mac friendly at the source level - the QT project file already had all kinds of flags set for Macs... Anyway, I'll keep trucking along and update this soon.

P.S. The mini-guide above is still valid,... I just need to elaborate on some things like how to install HomeBrew and dependencies, etc.

P.P.S. I'd appreciate anyone who uses the Mincoin-qt client I compiled for a few days posting back here to vouch that there was no Trojan inserted by me stealing your coin or anything.

Thanks! Smiley

Thanks to your instructions, and with a bit of fiddling, I was able to compile my own Mac version of the MinCoin app. I had to adjust a few things for compiling on Mountain Lion, using homebrew. Here's a quick list of what I had to do, in case anyone else wants to try:

  • After installing the Qt SDK, I had to find the file g++-macx.conf (it was in /usr/local/Qt4.8/mkspecs/common for me) and change the two instances of -mmacosx-version-min=10.5 to -mmacosx-version-min=10.7. This is apparently a known bug. See https://qt-project.org/forums/viewreply/93191/. The downside is that the compiled client won't work on OS X versions older than Lion. Sad
  • sudo ln -s /usr/local /opt/local (because the MinCoin Mac code assumes you have MacPorts, not homebrew.)
  • Use the GCC (x86 64bit) toolchain, not the clang toolchain.
  • Since homebrew installs openssl and berkeley-db4 as keg-only, I had to force-link them (brew link --force openssl, etc.)

Once I'd done that, I didn't have to change the MinCoin code at all to build the Qt app, which was great. That got me to a dynamically linked version of MinCoin-Qt.app that only worked on the computer I compiled it on. Then I looked at bushstar's script and modified it for homebrew, like this:

Code:
#!/bin/bash

After running that, I had a statically linked app that worked great on another Mac! Now to try some of the other clients...

jrlepage, I don't have very many mincoins, but I'm sending a couple your way.
bushstar, I didn't see a donation address for you, but I'd like to send you a tip as well.

Is this the app you're thinking of? I found it while looking for something similar.

This one is excellent but needs more Cryptos. At least Mincoin.

I agree. I'll be keeping an eye on it. I found a blog article about it (http://beyondem.com/cryptotrack-com-google-finance-bitcoin/) that says it's in "early stages," so maybe they'll introduce some more coins. Especially if we follow up to the blog entry. Smiley

EDIT: Uhhh, except that the comment box seems to be disabled.

Thanks, notaek. Strange that the 7850 only came with a single Molex to PCIe adapter, rather than a double Molex like the one you posted.

Relatedly, has anyone had success powering a card from spare SATA power, using a cable like this one? http://amzn.com/B007Y91B80
414  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Compiling Mac Clients for ANY Alt Coin, Your Choice! on: May 15, 2013, 11:40:27 AM
Please do share the details of the process! I've tried to get several of the Qt wallets working on the Mac, and been fairly close with a few of them, but never quite succeeded. I promise I won't find it boring. Smiley

I will post the entire process here soon but here's a quick rundown... and Coinbuck you're right, I realize that if I were able I could insert whatever I want into the code prior to compiling. As I said, you'll just have to trust me to some extent - if you can suggest a way that I can prove that there's nothing malicious in the Mac binaries please let me know and I'll be more than happy to comply. All I can do for now is give you my word that I'm not interested in doing something like that.

Ok, so brief rundown of how to do this:
 
[...]

That's all! Smiley I'm sure I left out some stuff, but that's the gist of it.

That's fantastic, thank you! I'll give this a try with some of the other wallets as soon as I can. I would love to stop running these in Parallels. Smiley
415  Other / CPU/GPU Bitcoin mining hardware / Powering a GPU from 4-pin Molex on: May 15, 2013, 12:58:53 AM
I bought a Sapphire 7850 card recently, and it came with a cable with 4-pin Molex on one end, and a normal 6-pin PCIe connector on the other. It looks like the intent is for the user to connect it to a power connector that would normally be used with a DVD drive. Since I had a free PCIe connector, I scrounged a PCIe cable and used that instead.

Looking to the future, though, I have two cards that use a single PCIe connector each, and two PCIe connectors available from the power supply. Sometime soon, I'd like to upgrade one of those cards to a more modern card that requires two PCIe connections. If I did that, is it realistic to think I could power the 7850 from a 4-pin Molex? My power supply has the wattage (it's 980 watts, I'm pulling 550 now), but I've never seen a Molex to PCIe cable before.

Hi! I'm selling a USD$25 Amazon.com Gift Card claim code. I got it as a gift, but I'd rather have some Bitcoin and a little rep.

I'm asking USD$23 for the code. It's available on Bitmit:
https://www.bitmit.net/en/item/32571-25-amazon-com-gift-card-claim-code

Or if you'd rather use a different escrow service, or have any questions, please PM me.

To be clear, I'm not selling the card itself, just the claim code, which you can redeem on Amazon.com and which I will deliver via PM or email to the buyer.

If you want to mine on a Mac, I recommend that you do it under Windows in Boot Camp, if you can. CGMiner will run in OS X, but your hash rates will be somewhat lower. I hear that this is due to Apple's OpenCL being broken in some way.
