Subbed. Hopefully my transaction will confirm fast enough for me to get some of these.

To give everyone an idea of the speed.. 1.50-1.65KH/s on LTC per a core for all 8. Just running 4 threads. 1.6-1.90KH/s (Turbo kicks in). I ran the miner in the VPS, not on the raw hardware.
Also, Mining will not be tolerated and the system will not mine.
Then why do you tempt us with the numbers? Ah well, understandable. Hopefully you can get this up and running with no major issues. |

I would recommend that you start a competing service. I am certain that Pirateat40 would love to have some real actual competition. Make a better mousetrap, and the world is yours. But until then, the one with the monopoly can do as he pleases.
You speak truth indeed. Guess it's time for me to learn some web programming. In any case, my concerns have been expressed; I'm not going to repeat my position any longer. Glad to see that there's support for competition. Pirate, I have been impressed by GPUMAX and some of your other ventures. I hope you will honestly consider my thoughts, but whether or not you heed them, best of luck with your venture. I'll be getting to work on something to end your little monopoly.  |

It's an interesting phenomenon we are seeing here. At the end of the day, designing a system that "just works" without employing it is very hard. So it would be no surprise if we found out that Bitcoin, in its current form, needs adjustments. We have seen with BIP 16 that this is possible, as long as the miners have faith in whomever proposes the solution. Of course the required change in this case might be different, as a core protocol change could be required. It will, in any case, be interesting to see where this leads. The most important thing is to not rush into finding a solution. This is how bureaucracy is created, and one of the worst things that could happen to Bitcoin. One imperfect solution on top of the next. The "no empty blocks"-rule is an example of this, in my opinion. Generally, when we observe misbehavior like this, we shouldn't really be asking ourselves how to prevent it. We should be asking ourselves: why does it occur in the first place? There are numerous ways we can prevent this from happening, but if we don't solve the fundamental structure of incentivizing cooperation, we have solved nothing. It seems to me that the simplicity of the situation is that for this particular miner, the reward for including transactions in a block is not worth the effort required to do so. This is not really surprising, given that fees comprise less than 0.15% of total block reward (using the newest post as of this writing: 174195). It seems obvious that this is not due to - as some speculate - the cost of processing power, ie. doing the signature check. This is obviously a tiny effort both in time and power costs. The real cost is maintaining a block chain. This requires first downloading over 1 GB of data and subsequently updating this block chain with every newly incoming transaction (which in itself requires connections to - preferably - multiple nodes). This is quite a task for a decentralized botnet. There's a simple way to mitigate this though: start paying more fees . An excellent point. But as to the solution you suggest, that kind of societal shift works when everybody cares about the currency - but not when most of the people here simply want to make money. We can certainly change the software to require more fees, but I don't think enough people will put up their bitcoins out of care for the currency to solve the problem. |

Miners are not our customers but instead our workers. Those that i have a problem with know why and ultimately I'm tired of dealing with anyone that can do nothing but complain but contiunes to use the service, which is the reason for my comment.
Oh, they are your customers, like it or not. Both buyers and sellers of hashing power are contracting with you to provide a service. I understand and empathize with not wanting to deal with whiners, I just ask that you try not to brush off everything negative as a malevolent complaint. Like i have stated countless times before, we are working on changes to improve the system and trying to keep everyone happy but there is always going to be complainers. GPUMAX is something much bigger that it appears and until that information is public all i can say is wait for it. You have certainly stated it countless times before, and I assure you I have no doubts that you are working on changes. Nor do I expect you to make future plans public if you do not wish to. However, I fail to see how this in any way impedes you from answering honest queries instead of brushing them off. Running a large operation in a tech savvy online community is like trying to write a paper with a bunch of grammer professors looking over you. That it is. But it is also a unique opportunity to have knowledgeable, caring people provide feedback on and help you improve your company. It is what you make of in. And in any case, as you said yourself, if you're not happy there's nobody keeping you here.

Bug zux0r on IRC?
Seriously
A guy comes along , finds a way to make you extra money while making a profit at the same time
and all anybody has are endless complaints.
I think it is important to differentiate between simple complaining and actual suggestions and feature requests. While it's easy to categorize anything less than voracious thank-yous as complaining, doing that not only fails to actually address the problem but in effect contributes to it. Whining about other people whining simply exacerbates the problem. I do not disagree that some of the negative posts are simple whining, but I certainly do not think all of them are. Many users have legitimate problems with the service and are asking for help or making suggestions in perfectly reasonable and polite ways. Whine about the whiners if you will, but at least respect legitimate gripes such as Transisto's and jjimm64's. (And before you cry foul, I do not know either of them at all.) Until then, relax and if you're not happy there's nobody keeping you here.
With all due respect Pirate, is that really how you want to run your company? "If you don't like it, then leave"? There's a lot of ground in between dealing with every tiny gripe and utterly dismissing serious, polite, and legitimate questions. Users of any company have problems every day. I'm not going to just quit going to a grocery store because they gave me one bad carton of milk. I go there, talk to the manager, give them a chance to explain themselves. If they give reasonable reasons for why my carton of milk was bad, if they explain themselves civilly and don't simply dismiss my claims, I give them another chance. If they just dismiss my queries, I will leave, no question about it, and find another grocery store. That you haven't experienced yet, because there is no "other GPUMAX". But it will come, and when it does, I encourage you to at least consider my words. These people are giving you a chance here. If you want to throw that away, that's your choice. |

yep, and the results are interesting sorry for off-topic, watching the thread... Heh. I get more with a 5870 than they do with a 7970. They should really have someone knowledgeable do their benchmarks. |

When BAMT boots up, do this before the mining starts:
>Ctrl+Alt+F1
>nano /etc/bamt/bamt.conf
>Edit the lines that are causing issues (i.e. Core is too high)
>Ctrl+X
>y
>Enter
>shutdown -r now
Upon restart, you will be mining with the new settings. Which in turn, will keep you from getting locked up.
(I'm new with BAMT, and always locking it up as well. Still tweaking settings to get everything right.)
Hope that helps
I'm not overclocking, using stock speeds. When I attach screen and keyboard, the box is still up and X is running. It's only the NIC that doesn't work anymore... It doesn't work once you start mining, or doesn't work at all? The latter is an OS problem, not a BAMT problem. BAMT is just Debian 6 Live with some scripts, look up drivers for your NIC. The former is probably a lockup of some sort. Run and look for anything labeled defunct. It stops after a while. Machine boots fine, BAMT works fine, until NIC fails... Please post the results of . I'm sorry; I just can't help you without more information. |

Anyone getting public work? My price is at .00005 and I'm not getting any; changing to .000045 didn't help.
|
|
|

Where can you find the average asking price of miners?
You can't AFAIK. By buying?  I don't think that's the average asking price; it changes extremely infrequently. |
|
|
|
Some news "coming soon" should cause pricing to stabilize or even move up.
And hopefully more public work to come.  |

mmm this topic or forum is alone.. o.o
i dont know if the pool... that have trouble with the speed or hashrate
I'm afraid I don't really understand your issue. My Spanish is horrible, but I'll give it a try. No entiendo su problema; su Ingles no esta claro. Quizas puede tratar su pregunta en el foro Espanol aqui. Si no lo quiere hacer, escribir su pregunta en Espanol y yo tratare a contestar. |

yes power hashrate.. sorry for me english is little bad xD im chilean xD
mmm in guimmer.. sometimes is down.. but think that is normal..., miner" yes... some miner program for 6xxx???
No worries. I would suggest trying your query in the Spanish sub-forum; you'll be able to articulate more clearly and get better responses there. (I'm making the assumption that you speak Spanish due to your statement that you are Chilean; sorry if this is incorrect) |

Pool hopping.
Pool hopping return rate is nowhere near 160%, even with a custom proxy and optimized timing. |

Boot it, SSH in before the mining starts, run '/etc/init.d/mine stop'. Alternatively, disconnect it from the net and connect a monitor and keyboard. Then:
1. Edit /etc/bamt/bamt.conf to remove any OC, disable any cards not in your rig.
2. Edit /etc/bamt/pools to make sure you have correct pool configuration.
3. Run 'aticonfig --list-adapters'; make sure all of your cards are listed.
4. Run '/etc/init.d/mine start'.
Unless you have bad hardware or a really screwed up configuration file, that should fix the problem. If that doesn't do it, post the result of 'lspci | grep Radeon' along with your configuration file (/etc/bamt/bamt.conf).

please help, use the last version of guimmer. I have a power of 5,3 5,4 in ABC. and it always shows a power to me of 4,6 4.7 workers is down sometines.. . some recommendation of to miner? i have 5xxx and 6xxx help please..  You need some clarification good sir. 1. What on earth do you mean by "power"? Hashrate? 2. "It always shows"? It as in what? GUIMiner? 3. "Workers is down sometimes"? Why are they down? Internet? Crashes? 4. "Some recommendation of to miner"? You want help with what exactly? Another mining program? Fix crashing? |

So, is that the question thats being asked by you guys.. the same one I am? "who would buy all these shares at 60% fee?" pretty much and what would they be used for?
Who cares? Do you stand outside the casino asking everyone that goes in why they are going in when there is a known house advantage? What would you say if I told you I did? |

You need to vary your wavelengths more for a real rainbow, but glad to see it nonetheless. |
