They view it as their's by default and you are allowed to keep a portion as they allow.

By DECREE .... how ironic., fuckers.
Seconded by Decree your money is mine you can't do anything about it go suck a lemon

Thanks for the update - sorry you are going through this although I know that doesn't help much.  Please keep us updated, and I would still be interested in where you ended up (once you feel it is prudent to let us know the location of course).

 The power-hungry politicians are after power and money everywhere.

The stealing of my money is now finalized.

Yesterday I looked at my Laiki account and found that frozen amount is not more shown on my balance.
100% of frozen funds is now appears as outgoing transaction to nobody with comment "DECREE".

Also there are some news from lawyers.

Quote
The Supreme Court has not announced its decision yet. It examines preliminary objections raised by the Attorney on a basis that the Law and the Order are political acts of the state (like decision to start war) and therefore cannot be examined or controlled by the Supreme Court and that the matter in issue should be considered as a private and not a public law matter.

Also, there is recent translation of the "Capital Controls imposing DECREE"

I don't use it for anything else either.  I will bump it up to 14 to see how that goes. 

Rebooting fixed the GUI although I am just sshing in still.

If I have time in a bit, I'll try to re-work the instructions in those two spots.  I was just re-arranging the order there I believe and correcting that one typo.

Thanks!


Yea, that's why I do that. You could just give miner a password at the end of the process and then you can log in as miner and use it without needing to sudo.  

Great advice and suggestions.  I'll re-work the instructions just as soon as I can.  (Unless you who just did this want to make the changes necessary, I'll just copy and paste your code).  

Thanks again!

ps. I run at I=14 since I don't use the box for anything else.

Hi,
I think I would prefer to run it as a dedicated user vs root  (I didn't run cgminer using sudo yet, but will try it).

It is mining with your test now, so you should see some coins.  I need to adjust the aggressiveness a bit.

It does appear that the GUI is not working right now, but I'm okay with that.  ;-)  I'm not messing with things at the moment.



AHHH, nice.  I could never figure out how to run it as sudo.  I run as a dedicated user.  NICE FIND!

For me the error cleans up when I run the same:
export DISPLAY=:0

as the dedicated user, so your solution makes alot of sense.


Oh, you are golden now.  
4245  Other / CPU/GPU Bitcoin mining hardware / Re: Building a rock solid multi-gpu linux mining rig with CEntOS 6.0 on: May 28, 2013, 07:02:37 PM
1. One thing I'd emphasize by the yum update section is to not do any GUI updates either.

2. The only issue I am having now is that if I am running as the user "miner" e.g.:
su -l miner 

Then it is not working.

If I am running as root with your example here (to say thanks):
./cgminer -o stratum+tcp://mining.eligius.st:3334 -u 1NQc6tCtRmT8zBeLKNpboFaUBMLcxDwUm6 -p x0 -I 9 --per-device-stats 2>logfile.txt

then it is mining.

So the only remaining hitch is to figure out why it is running okay as root, but not as the miner user:


-rwxrwxr-x.  1 miner miner 1010558 May 28 14:15 cgminer



So, if others have problems, here are two things to try:
sudo DISPLAY=:0 fglrxinfo

And as root try running cgminer.

e.g.
cd /home/miner/cgminer
./cgminer  -n



Thanks for the tips.

1. After going through it again, perhaps just moving this to the later section after the git command would be enough:

cp /home/miner/miningpacks/ADL-SDK-3point0-temp/include/*.h /home/miner/cgminer/ADL_SDK
rm -rf /home/miner/ADL-SDK-3point0-temp


2. I did reinstall it all from the live CD, and no luck.  I made sure there were no updates by from yum at all.

and

That's what I was getting before I wrote the script.  Did you absolutely make sure you cut off the yum upgrades?  Because yum is not friendly for this, if you did not modify the yum conf file before running a yum update/upgrade that will break it.

4251  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: can't find some transaction in my bitcoind on: May 28, 2013, 04:17:45 PM
If I understand your question correctly, my understanding is that the reference client does not include block 0 in its database (e.g. the list of known transactions etc) at startup because it is structured differently than the other blocks since it is not a "normal" block.  This could be why you can not get information on that transaction with bitcoind.   Smiley




This transactino is in block 0. See: http://blockexplorer.com/tx/4a5e1e4baab89f3a32518a88c31bc87f618f76673e2cc77ab2127b7afdeda33b.

Should I remove all data and start with a empty bitcoind to get all transaction?
4252  Other / CPU/GPU Bitcoin mining hardware / Re: Building a rock solid multi-gpu linux mining rig with CEntOS 6.0 on: May 28, 2013, 03:46:15 PM
Hi,
I had a couple of comments on the guide, if you are looking for feedback.  I don't think it is my error,
but if so, my apologies!  (I was using the instructions on page 1, note later in the thread, hope that was the current one).

This has been helpful, although I am not yet successful in running it yet - I went from Ubuntu 10.10 to upgrade from getwork thinking it would not be difficult as it was not when I set up 10.10 several years ago, but this has been frustrating.  (With Ubunutu I was not having success getting the drivers etc set, so thought I'd try CentOS 6.0 ).

I'm hoping I'll have some success shortly, but am stuck right now.


=====================================================================
1.  Looks like a typo:

At one point you have "3point0" and then later reference "5point0".  Just FYI:
cp /home/miner/miningpacks/ADL-SDK-3point0-temp/include/*.h /home/miner/cgminer/ADL_SDK
rm -rf /home/miner/ADL-SDK-3point0-temp

cd /home/miner/cgminer/ADL_SDK
cp /home/miner/miningpacks/ADL-SDK-5point0-temp/include/*.h .
rm -rf /home/miner/miningpacks/ADL-SDK-5point0-temp/



=====================================================================
2.
Also in one spot, you need to add a mkdir to make:
mkdir /home/miner/cgminer/
mkdir /home/miner/cgminer/ADL_SDK

before doing this:
cp /home/miner/miningpacks/ADL-SDK-3point0-temp/include/*.h /home/miner/cgminer/ADL_SDK
rm -rf /home/miner/ADL-SDK-3point0-temp



BUT later, if you do that git will complain that the cgminer directory exists.



=====================================================================
3. Regarding the installation path for the ATI Catalyst driver install in Step 6, the default is /
Is that what you had used for the installation path?

Just notes for some others:
You want "Package Generation " and "RedHat Packages" and then "RedHat/RHEL6_64a" (you need to hit SPACE to select it in the terminal (not running it in the GUI, but ssh'd in, then return).

Then you want "Generate Distribution Specific Driver Package" (not Install Driver 8.841 on X.Org 6.9 or later 64-bit".)

         


=====================================================================
4. What I am seeing right now, I think it is the kernel issue you had mentioned about non-matching
kernels maybe, but I am attempting to figure out how to fix it:

Keep their options open with regard to the dollar and currency transactions

So let's assume that they are mining, the aim of that is?
Try to pilot the behaviour of digital currency in relation to normal one?
Maybe try to sell fast pushing artificially down the value of digital currency?
or maybe more positively
Defend it's own people from a possible iniquity?
4254  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin of the Americas [vapor] on: May 22, 2013, 06:52:16 PM
Miami is convenient to many latin American markets, so go for it.  At worst someone else can organize one for Rio, Tegucigalpa, or Montevideo.   Grin

Not to mention Orlando and other areas have things going on with Bitcoin.  (e.g. Bitcoin Mag).

I met several individuals from Latin America at Bitcoin 2013, and we bounced around the idea of setting up a Bitcoin conference in the epicenter of the Western Hemisphere—Miami—rather than that remote, outer province that was all the rage way back in the 1990s.

We are calling it Bitcoin of the Americas.  (Don't bother.  I grabbed the domain names before posting this.)

I expect that this post will get buried pretty quickly under a bunch of posts about mining and setting up exchanges, but I'll try to update this thread as developments occur.  Anyone in South Florida who might be interested, feel free to contact me.  Mind, though, that this isn't even Powerpointware yet, much less an actual announcement.

It would not surprise me if the country that is manufacturing most ASICs is involved now or in the not too distant future.

I would like to know your opinion about governments around the world and mining bitcoins:
Do you think there is some country government that already realize the importance of digital currency and start to mine to have their own stock of digital currency?

4256  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: 71% of young men in America do not want to get married on: May 22, 2013, 04:01:10 PM
You are right - the problem is that a lot of women say the same thing, but do not mean it.  They are looking for a meal ticket until the kids turn 18 (or longer).

The risk to men now is much higher (due to the laws and the courts) with no commensurate increase in benefits. The risks can be minimized with a prenup to protect your assets, but nothing is 100%.

I hope you and your wife have forever together.  ;-)


To me, marriage is a commitment for the rest of my life.  When I say those vows on the alter, I mean it, and I won't break them for anything! 
4257  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: 71% of young men in America do not want to get married on: May 22, 2013, 02:13:40 AM
Do a prenup.  It will at least protect assets. If you have kids, that will be a different issue. Someone with proper motives should have no problem signing it..

I would still want to get married lol:).

Hey guys, I'm new to bitcoin mining...I was wondering is there even a chance on a block for new miners who would want to solo? Approx 278Mh/s or is the only way to join a pool?
4259  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Should I start bitcoin mining? on: May 21, 2013, 06:39:49 PM
If you believe that the value of 1 BTC is going to be significantly higher in a X years than it is now, then yes.  2 years ago, 1 BTC was worth about $1.  So even if you were mining 1 BTC per day, it was "worth" about $30/month.  That probably would not cover the power cost so looking at the then current value, it was not worth it.  The argument then was that "mining was not profitable" and that was true at the time but it excluded future potential appreciation.  

Even at $5/BTC roughly a year ago, it might have been only break-even on power.  At $120/BTC today, that changes completely what a machine was mining then.  

So, if you believe that the value of 1 BTC will continuing growing (whether or not at the same rate as in the past 4 years), mining 0.1 BTC/day (or even 0.05 BTC/day) could be worth it in a few years (even before the next block reward halving in ~2017).  Looking at the cost of power today and the value of 1 BTC today alone would lead one to say it is not worth it, but it ignores future appreciation potential.

In short:  if you intend to mine and sell today, then you probably (definitely?) will be losing money, but still may be fun.  If you intend to mine today, and then spend in 12 months or 48 months or longer, then it may be worth it.

You can always use the rig for LTC if you want later.


I've always wanted to build a multiple video card machine but never had the reason until now with Bitcoin mining.  I mean, I never used cross SLI support with multiple video cards.  Something about stuffing 4 video cards into one machine and overclocking them sounds fun.

But I feel like I'm too late to the party.  Searching for the cost efficient graphics cards is proving difficult as they are out of stock or higher in price due to the demand.

Any suggestions?  Should I wave to the boat or jump in the water and try and swim up to it?

Ha ha.  I hear that the cats really like the cradle's there. :-)

I too am interested in what this turned out to be.  Dreaming is great, but for decades or centuries (or longer) it has been nothing more than that.


Seriously, after a little research I found out where this place is without a doubt:

---------------
San Lorenzo is a tiny, rocky island nation located in the Caribbean Sea, positioned in the relative vicinity of Puerto Rico. San Lorenzo has only one city, its seaside capital of Bolivar. The country's form of government is a dictatorship, under the rule of ailing president "Papa" Monzano, who is a staunch ally of the United States and a fierce opponent of communism. No legislature exists. The infrastructure of San Lorenzo is described as being dilapidated, consisting of worn buildings, dirt roads, an impoverished populace, and having only one automobile taxi running in the entire country.

The language of San Lorenzo is a fictitious English-based creole language that is referred to as "the San Lorenzan dialect." The San Lorenzan national anthem is based on the tune of Home on the Range. Its flag consists of a U.S. Marine Corps corporal's stripes on a blue field (presumably the flag was updated, since in the 1920s Marine Corps rank insignia did not include crossed rifles). Its currency is named corporals, at a rate of two corporals for every United States dollar; both the flag and the monetary unit are named after U.S. Marine Corporal Earl McCabe, who deserted his company while stationed at Port-au-Prince during the American occupation in 1922, and in transit to Miami, was shipwrecked on San Lorenzo. McCabe, along with accomplice Lionel Boyd Johnson from Tobago, would together throw out the island's governing sugar company, and after a period of anarchy, proclaimed a republic.

San Lorenzo also has its own native religion, Bokononism, a religion based on enjoying life through its untruths. Bokononism, founded by McCabe's accomplice Boyd Johnson (pronounced "Bokonon" in San Lorenzan dialect), however, is outlawed - an idea Bokonon himself conceived for the purpose of spreading the religion and making the residents of the island happier. Bokononists are liable to be punished by being impaled on a hook, but Bokononism privately remains the dominant religion of nearly everyone on the island, including the leaders who outlaw it.
