so in that case i could technically run 6 but 5 is being safe.
it depends on what you are plugged into, but yeah, 5 is good. What do you mean plugged into? I just looked, my 3 D-links have 4 plugged into them. What do i mean "plugged into"? *looks around for a chicken* Ok, it seems that Hub success is part Voodoo. Seriously, I'm a software guy, when i was working i always EEs to figure out the hardware "whys" for me. But anyway, it has been my experience that if a Hub is plugged into a low power port it has trouble supporting the number of erupters that the Hub power brick would lead you to believe it can support. i think it is depending on the port it is plugged into to supply it some power, or some of it's power is leaking back into the low power port. Even if the port is on the computer. My Netbook can only run one Erupter, a second one will turn off the computer. The symptom of low power to the USB is that it is seen by cgminer but there are comunication errors and unrecognised device. Sometimes they may start out working but after awhile you get green lights and Zombies. In some cases unplugging and the plugging them back in will get them back. if not then there isn't enough power. I'm no expert, but having 76 erupters has given me a bit of experience. |

Ugh. Don't they come with a 2.5 Amp supply?
You know i am not positive but ive been running 5 erupters on a hub and its been happy as can be. There again i have all my mining stuff on APC-UPS so i dont get that much dirty power. I am sure that helps alittle. D-link 7 has an 3 amp supply. |

I'm about ready to just return to BTCGuild or EMC...
wouldn't it stand to reason that when the hashrate goes up rapidly that the orphan rate would too. Maybe this is a horse race and the pools are neck & neck. Slush'e luck is good right now so it is time for people to move to other pools and trash our luck. *singing* The luck goes up, the luck goes down, and the toilet water goes round and Round. |

Meh. All silver - not a blue one in the batch. Looking at the bright side of things - the good news is that not even a single one of them was black....  I'd cry!  |

That looks cool can't wait till they come out on the store. How much for the little dude? yea, really. where can we get him? I'm building a case for a couple of ASICminer blades out of LEGOs and he would fit right in. Bought them before Dave's stuff was available. I'll also be getting some of those USBs. |

this is what I finally got after changing my main IP address and getting to the configure page, but I my blade isnt hashing. If I use slush's pool can my blade mine without my computer being on and can someone help me configure my first blade so I can do the rest? Im a newbie when it comes to any of this and I don't understand proxy or stratum and so on so please be nice. Thanks
no, Slush's Pool doesn't support the Getwork protocol. This is why he wrote the Stratum proxy. the blade talks to the proxy and the proxy(on your computer) talks to the pool. So if I switch to the stratum.bitcoin.cz:3333 would that work without my computer being on? no, the blade only uses the getwork protocal. the proxy is a translater between the two protocols. |

Beware of implying something that is indeed incorrect ...
The unlock is of course either an interface in a system that you wrote that can of course be bypassed ... or a button that you click on when you believe a pool member has provided your required amount of proof.
It is indeed NOT true to say "can only be removed by signing a message"
It would be true to say that you "eleuthria" will bypass the rule when someone signs such a message.
oh give me a break. stop being so literal. He could have made it a one way encryption that he can't reverse. perhaps it requires him manually editing the database. Who knows how he implimented the code. If he says it can't be over ridden, most likely he means that he can't override it easily or has he no incentive to do so since it would expose his sight to social hacking. |

I tend t think of the person i'm responding to as being their Avatar.
I suppose that makes you a scary looking puppet... moreso than you would believe. |

yes i have them but i didn't paste them in here
If you are sure the username and pass match what you have in the blade config, I don't know what else might be wrong. Maybe there is something in the debug.log that will help you. blocks are flowing in now  what fixed it? |

i am connecting to oscoin
i have my conf file setup
rpcallowip=192.168.1.*
rpcconnect=192.168.1.* wallet ip address
rpcport=6332
listen=1
daemon=1
server=1
it still wont connect
Does ozcoin accept getwork? |

Not the point of my post.
Commonly known as misdirection. So the people selling ASIC hardware are basically trying to screw people on hardware that will never ROI, the people buying ASICs are screwing themselves with machines that cannot predictably pay themselves off, and the community trumpets each new ASIC vendor that comes out even though every game in town is playing with "pre-orders". Full stop. If Coinbase and BitInstant can get venture funding to the tune of several millions, and they just process payments, why doesn't venture funding go into something like a K1/N1/BE that will provide ROI based on projections? If AM tomorrow released a product guaranteed to ROI people would buy them like hotcakes, so even if the profit point is $5 that is $5 per unit, and that is lowball. And a few million will cover design, development, fab, testing, assembly, and boxing of a ready-to-ship product. Then it is price based on BTC/Diff and profit away while the technology remains valid and the market remains full of suckers. The market is ready for anyone to release *shipping now* hardware and both the manufacturer and the miner can profit, but this industry is full of greedy bastards and this has yet to happen. It is proven people will buy working, proven hardware, even at a premium. Charge less of a premium, be the only person selling shipping, ROI-worthy products, and you'll own the market for long enough to make cubic shit-ton of money. The Problem is that no machine at any price can promise a return on investment because there is an unlimited number of them and a finite number of bitcoins to be mined. |

New "update" from Sam on the KnC forums. Notice how he mentions components but not chip production status
Hi guys,
We are still on track, The millions of individual components needed to produce our miners are all arriving at the factory as schedualed and as of right now we do not know of anything that will cause a delay.
Sam
oh give me a break, to an engineer chips are components. synonym. |

I've lost track and am confused, did he say he has silver and blue erupters on hand or coming in? I don't want to order before he has them and end up with black or red ones. All inventory is blue/silver right now. No red/black could possibly sneak in. *running off to the store* 5 ordered, that should at least get me some blue ones.  |
