Belief is not faith. It's just something that someone believes is true based on what they know. So I wasn't implying religion. Everybody believed the earth was flat at some point, because otherwise "things would fall off the bottom of it." I wasn't walking about recently. "We" as in "the human race and all our combined knowledge." We can't figure out why light is both a wave and a particle, but that doesn't matter, because light being able to travel like a particle makes aether not real. Or at least not necessary to exist for the rest of physics to work. Energy can travel without a need for some medium, like aether, to travel through. Example is Tesla's famous giant free energy tower. That never worked, and theoretically has no reason to.
Light particle is not aether. It's a particle in a point in space, while aether was thought to be something that exists everywhere. In your analogy, aether would be the water, while light would be a wave in that water, where the wave needs the water to travel, but turns out light is like a thrown rock. Sure, it can travel through water, but it doesn't need it to be able to travel. Scientists performed many experiments to detect aether, including testing for effects of earth moving through it. Theoretically there would be resistance in the direction we are traveling, and extra speed in the opposite direction where we are leaving aether behind. Nothing like that was detecting, suggesting complete vacuum and lack of aether.
There was never a time everybody believed the Earth was flat, ever. People aren't stupid and they only reason somebody proclaimed the flat-earth establishment view back then was for fear of persecution. I have no problem explaining how light appears to have both wave and particle-like properties as I'm not a card carrying member of "we". Tesla's tower was a giant Tesla coil and I'm sure that works as advertised. Finally, the M&M experiment (the erroneous attempt at detecting the æther) has been debunked.

I got none and and diff 1.010 block 22 total block 49 big dog got it now mining rigs kicking in.
Rigs? Bah, this is a prime candidate for botnets.

cpu only use 50%.
Yeah I was wondering about that.

how to mine in linux ??
i would like to know this as well on the website " If you are using the command line client use the -mine-cpu=1 option." but its not showing anything for me after i do this Click the top right icon to bring up the mining window.

The CPU miner makes windows think it's a virus lol.

I read that I should copy mstcpip.h to MinGW\include so I found a random version on the web and... it's not working. Why do I have to find my own mstcpip.h? I guess a better question is why doesn't it work. Doesn't like the comments? ...and the culprit is a missing at the very beginning of the file. Thank you to whoever uploaded this file. ![Embarrassed](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/embarrassed.gif)

SOLVED! $ LIBCURL="-lcurldll" ./configure CFLAGS="-O3" ... checking for curl-config... /usr/local/bin/curl-config checking for the version of libcurl... 7.20.0 checking for libcurl >= version 7.15.2... yes checking whether libcurl is usable... yes ...
botched install of libcurl maybe, I think I had the wrong curl-config in mingw/bin as it's a manually copied file. Anyhow, Re-installed and it works now. Also missed LIBCURL="-lcurldll" first run of ./configure.

curl-7.15.2-devel-mingw32.zip is nowhere to be found on the internet. ![Huh](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/huh.gif) So how do I force 7.20.0 to work?
|
|
|
Oh, not so fast... LOL checking for curl-config... /usr/local/bin/curl-config checking for the version of libcurl... 7.20.0 checking for libcurl >= version 7.15.2... yes checking whether libcurl is usable... no configure: error: Missing required libcurl >= 7.15.2
Now if I've got 7.20.0 and it wants 7.15.2 or greater... WTF

It helps when I think out loud. I just helped 100 noobs with a quick answer to their google search ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) Now if you'll excuse me I've got some hashing functions to cut & paste...

SOLVED!Their you have it, proof I'm an idiot! Special thanks to sash13 on github for the answer.

I've read I need to run ./configure to generate the missing config.pm file, this xcoin distro has no such script. I've read one can be made with autoreconf but that results in an autom4te-2.68 error. Did I mention that I'm an idiot? EDIT: $ autoreconf -fvi Can't locate Autom4te/ChannelDefs.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /mingw/share/autoco nf /usr/lib/perl5/5.8/msys /usr/lib/perl5/5.8 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8/msys /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8 /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_ perl/5.8/msys /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8 /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8 .) a t /c/mingw/bin/autoreconf-2.68 line 40.

Windows does not have symbolic links ![Undecided](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/undecided.gif) getting close to root of the problem I believe...
|
|

I've found the offending command in autogen.sh. The instructions for xminer had me manually copy libcurl.m4 to MinGW\share\aclocal during the cURL install. Not sure if this is the cause somehow, perhaps the cURL install overwrote something that doesn't matter in Linux but screws MinGW in windows and the devs hate windows and don't care. Still digging on this...

When you pay money for a product and you don't receive it or get a refund then you've been ripped off.
BTW it's nice you've involved Luke Jr in your scam, I'm sure he appreciates his celeb status being used in an attempt give cred to this elaborate fraud.
