Greetings.
I tried Asteroid 0.4.1 in my MacBook (13-inch Aluminium Late 2008), 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 4 GBytes 1333 MHz DDR3, Nvidea GeForce 9400M 256 MBytes, OS X 10.8.3.
I got the following error, when trying to initialize miner (I selected feedback, to send you the crash report
):
The miner API never came up, therefore we can't do anything. Please report this bug.
I didn't modified any option (Intensity 2 flexible) and was trying to connect to Deepbit.net
3 tries later (killing and starting again the program), it started mining without errors, it connected to Deepbit.net, but the mining was always with 0.00 MH/s value.
With DiabloMiner I can get (only) 1.7 to 2.0 MH/s:

mhash: 1.8/1.9 | accept: 1 | reject: 0 | hw error: 0 I tried then to select the TripleMining pool... same problem (API never came up) and the program freezes, with "initializing miner..." forever.
This time, I tried several times and always got the same API error. That way, I couldn't select any other mining pool.
As a new feature, it would be nice to have a direct button to access the console or better, a own console, like Windows's GUIMiner and others.
P.S.:
