Perhaps you could ssh into the miner and check cgminer logs and post them here in code tags.
503  Bitcoin / Mycelium / Mycelium Entropy - Checking flashed firmware on: April 17, 2015, 04:21:37 PM
I've followed the instructions to flash the firmware;

-> safely remove the usb after putting the .bin in the entropy
-> click the button once -> see a quick flash and then nothing

How can I verify the flashed SHA1?
According to their website it should be
Flashed sha1[?]: 71ac8668438594babc77b4f2d8de6f2ec0de77e5

Charge backs with skrill are possible, its harder than paypal but its possible. Verify your account before starting the heavy trades.
To receive funds, people just send to your email and you have to accept them via skrill website.
505  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Buy bitcoin with credit card on: April 17, 2015, 12:09:12 AM
This has been asked several times, you could try searching with google and adding bitcointalk at the end
for example:

"buy bitcoins creditcard bitcointalk" http://lmgtfy.com/?q=buy+bitcoin+with+creditcard+bitcointalk

You can try:

Circle.com, cex.io, Payza <- cant buy with the deposited funds via the creditcard but they'll allow you to withdraw into bitcoin if you use other source to deposit.

Bit-x is somewhat new but its possible to deposit fiat and then exchange to bitcoins;
506  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What do you think - Is BTC/FIAT easily manipulated ? on: April 17, 2015, 12:03:50 AM
Yes, it's easily manipulated, the thing is that usually the big ones who own that much money, wouldnt risk it into "bitcoin virtual currency (as they see it)".

It would hurt to make a mistake in a pump and dump and then lose millions on the experiment.

508  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Ubunutu + Electrum Security on: April 16, 2015, 10:17:40 PM
What is the difference between Tails, and using Ubunutu Live DVD?

Sorry I am not familiar with Tails at all, and Linux in general..  Aside from some old aircrack experiments a few years ago  Grin

Edit - Hence why I chose Ubuntu, seemed like the like most user friendly form of Linux.  Although I am not opposed to trying other ones.

More information about tails:

https://tails.boum.org/

Tails is a live operating system, that you can start on almost any computer from a DVD, USB stick, or SD card. It aims at preserving your privacy and anonymity, and helps you to:

use the Internet anonymously and circumvent censorship;
all connections to the Internet are forced to go through the Tor network;
leave no trace on the computer you are using unless you ask it explicitly;
use state-of-the-art cryptographic tools to encrypt your files, emails and instant messaging.

Why would you even use ubuntu with such bloated software installed from start? get archlinux or gentoo and compile everything by hand, this will be safer and learn how to use the firewall. Here there are some useful links:

Here's the link to iptable: http://www.gtcomm.net/blog/linux-native-firewall-introduction-to-iptables/

Ubuntu is much more polished than other distro's though. It's because much of Ubuntu is developed by a for-profit company called Canonical with paid developers, and they regularly use tricks to avoid pushing their changes upstream, so other distro's don't get to use much of their code. I personally distrust Canonical for this and other reasons and don't particularly like Ubuntu, but I do use Ubuntu because on the desktop it runs stabler than any other distro, even Debian, however Debian is much better on the server.

Also compiling everything by hand might seem like a good idea, but be aware you are FAR more likely to introduce bugs due to incompatible libraries etc doing that, and also you won't be prompted for updates, so whenever another OpenSSL vulnerability shows up you'll be at risk until you manually compile the updated version. I don't think you should compile EVERYTHING by hand, perhaps you should compile your Bitcoin client by hand and use a package manager for most things. On top of that some packages don't play nice together, for example I used to use LXDE on Debian and I had an issue with a keyboard shortcut conflict and the windows key, which was a unique issue to me and I could never fix it because nobody else ran LXDE along with the package that was causing the conflict and digging through the code wasn't worth the effort and even if I did manage to fix it I'd have to manually compile it with my patch every time there's an update and also check that the update doesn't break the patch. In the end it was just easier to use Ubuntu.

I've been running arch linux and its quite stable (never lost control of my system on an update) and I can always be UP to date, as soon as a patch comes up, I know it will be on the Testing repos or core as soon as 1 week. I still remember those times when ubuntu upgrades broke my system. I would not use ubuntu to trust my bitcoins, but everyone to their reasons.

Also, the rolling release nature its just really convenient.

Tails is a good option too that should be considered.

I have 100 payza now i want to buy bitcoin at bitstam +3
Do you like this?
Can't do payza anymore since it's against their user agreement that people trade bitcoins -> payza and vice-versa.

Still have 20 usd neteller.

515  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Ledger wallet vs Entropy on: April 14, 2015, 02:59:27 AM
They added the ledger wallet application for pairing (I believe its for the security code, correct me if im wrong);

I bought both of them, I believe they server different purposes, entropy real cold wallet, ledger quick way to hold some coins and spend them anywhere with a computer or cellphone.

Well, its really sad to hear that we can't trade with users our payza->bitcoin and vice versa; Btw a week has passed and my account is still not verified after supplying all the required documents.
517  Bitcoin / Mycelium / Re: What's a good wallet that I can use my mycelium seed with? on: April 14, 2015, 01:36:24 AM
Use the latest electrum (2.0 afaik it can restore your mycelium wallet); yes, yo can download mycelium for android and use it there. Multibit HD might be able to restore it too (but its on beta); you can also use greenaddress for computer or android.


Well, while multibit hd is syncing, I tried to download the newest electrum version. I downloaded it and opened it like I opened the last version except, this time, it says "non hexadecimal digit found" or something and nothing happens (on a mac). Maybe I should try it from a different computer.


Feel free to wait for multibit and if nothing works, give a try to GreenAddress for computer. I'm sure that it would work on android greenaddress or greenbits or mycelium for android.

Yes, if its for fun you could start with development documentation from bitcoin so you could compile it by your self in the future.

Here it is:

I don't really know what you mean by 1 confirmation only by my self.

You could try to sign a transaction offline, and then on a watch-only version of your wallet, you would broadcast the transaction and you'll see it live in the blockchain.
