Is solo mining with wallets built from source still possible? Or is pool mining currently the only option ?
Also thanks for airdrop Smiley
Yes CPU solo mining is possible, from ./flbwallet:
Code:
start_mining +#of threads


or from ./freelabitd:

Code:
start_mining +FBF Wallet Address +#of threads
Wink

Thanks.
I mannaged to compile the code , run freelabit deamon and connect to it with included miner.
However, id does not let me connect with 3rd party miners, with xmrig as an example.
Is this intentional or should it be possible?

Most miners only support stratum so they can't directly connect to the daemon.  It's best to set up your own mining pool software such as node-cryptonote-pool, point it to your daemon and mine to it.

Why is the withdrawal fee for ETN pool set to 0.3 when it can be easily sent for less than 1/10th of its cost ?

It was .03 at suprnova and was changed without notice recently.

Also, be advised that suprnova rounds etn to the lowest whole number on payout so if you have a payout of 104.2, minus .3 transaction fee it should be 103.9, right?  Wrong.  When they send the transaction, it's only 103 so you are losing .9 etn.  That .9 etn is not credited to your existing balance...It's gone.

Other pools cover the tx fees since they are are all bundled in one transaction and send whole numbers and leave the remaining as a balance in your account.  So if I have 88.29 balance, when the payment processor runs, you get 88 and have .29 remaining in your account.  Hashvault pays out at .1 so if you have a balance of 88.29, they pay 88.2 and you have .09 left in your account.

I've had to stop using suprnova etn until this accounting error has been corrected.  If you have payouts set to their minimum of 10, you'll be losing a lot of etn over time.  I've lost 1.64 in just 4 payouts so far.
3  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Wattman profiles bug on: November 18, 2017, 08:30:05 AM
I've spent a lot of time trying to track down a wattman profile issue I'm having.  Figured I'd see if anyone else here has seen the same problem.

I'm running XFX RX 580s.  If I create a wattman profile for mining software, I can run that mining software one time and I'll get the desired hash rates.  Voltages, clock and memory frequencies are properly set.  Everything works great until I stop the software and try to restart it or run a different mining software for the same or even different algorithm.  On restart of the miner software, voltages, clock and memory frequencies are properly set but hash rates are about 5-10% lower than they should be.   For instance, I can mine Ethereum with Claymore at 30.5 MHz on first run.  If I stop and restart it, it only mines at at 28.4 MHz.  Again, it doesn't matter what miner I use with wattman profiles, they all exhibit the same problem.  Only a reboot resolves the problem.

If I run the miner without a wattman profile and allow it to set voltages, clock and memory, I can stop it and restart it all day long and I'll get full hash rates.  I can switch between various miners and they will all mine at full speed.

I submitted a bug report to AMD in regards to this as well.  I saw that 17.11.2 came out today and it mentioned fixing issues with voltages not being set properly with certain amd rx500 cards and was hoping it would resolve the problem but it does not.

Anyone else have the same problem?

I'd rather run Linux but the performance is 5-10% lower than windows and I haven't been able to figure out how to get it to be comparable.
