Bought deus ex from him. Since it was region locked to russia there was some difficulties of activating it and I basically fucked up trying to activate it on my own. Luckily TECHSARE was such an awesome guy and activated it for me (I gave him my steam credentials).

Who is unable to pay them in a currency they accept but who would pay them in pretend internet coins?  Do even five of those people exist?

Here's one.

Shouldn't this post be listed in Selling as you're not offering Bitcoins to purchase something?
Shouldn't this post be listed in Selling?

What the heck is your problem, man? All of you other posts are the same, too. What's going on here?

I now did the following
  • Stop both miners
  • Started the bitcoind.exe in the deamon folder. (for good measure, I also added it to the trusted-files-list of Comodo)
  • It showed an empty console-screen (I had to copy the .dll from the bitcoin.exe-folder to the deamon folder for it to work)
  • Started both miners again
  • After a few minutes, still no result other than the aforementioned

Does bitcoind.exe have parameters which I should use?
Can I give other information which might help? I am not using any flags btw.

Oh, I actually meant "bitcoin.exe -server" instead of bitcoind, my bad. Don't know if it makes any difference, though.

Other problem I came up with was running guiminer from source. Everytime it found a share it gave "2011-05-27 xx:xx:x: Listener for "username": 27/05/2011 xx:xx:xx, warning: job finished, miner is idle" and hashes came down for a small time.

Never tried to run it from source. Did other pools (maybe that closer to you) behave in same way ?

Same happens when soloing, too.

I am just getting started with bitcoin, and am running into problems already.

I have added both the bitcoin.exe file and the entire folder of guiminer.exe into Comodo Firewall/Defense+ as "Trusted file" but the GUIMiner just appears to stick to "Connecting...".
...

You should stop "generate coins" on bitcoin client. Did it downloaded block chain by the way ?

And if you really want to solo mine, use bitcoind and setup rpc=username and rpcpassword=password in your bitcoin.conf in %appdata%/roaming/bitcoin.

My day today was from the "Finding out how things work" -category. Some of the time was wasted trying to compile guiminer from source. I didn't succeed and as a last resort have to rely on asking some help. Sad

So I use py2exe and try to offer the default setup.py for it. The last line it gives is "*** finding dlls needed ***" and then throws an error "ImportError: DLL load failed: The specified module could not be found." Something with dlls, huh? Should I copy them to source directory or path them somehow? What dlls? Tried pyinstaller, too. I managed to compile (I couldn't find how to specify directory so I had to copy all files to pyinstallers base dir. Oh wow.) but it wouldn't run.

Other problem I came up with was running guiminer from source. Everytime it found a share it gave "2011-05-27 xx:xx:x: Listener for "username": 27/05/2011 xx:xx:xx, warning: job finished, miner is idle" and hashes came down for a small time. Working as intended or probably something wrong with my python27 & site-packages?

You probably can tell that I'm windows user and know nothing about compiling in general :p

Indeed. But you never know how much they will cost then so you better buy them now. From me.  Wink

12  Bitcoin / Pools / Re: Cooperative mining (330Ghash/s) on: May 21, 2011, 10:08:49 AM
Hey, so I have a few questions about cooperative mining and mining in general,
1) Would it be a good idea to create a hash-lookup table from the already generated hashes and then when a new block is released, just see if it is already in the hash table?
2) in the cooperative mining project, couldn't somebody just check the hashes to see if they match he block before they send them to the group, and thus getting bitcoins if they don't find it and the whole 50 if they do? (I know this isn't fair, but people rarely are)
3) Finally, the last graph here: http://mining.bitcoin.cz/stats/graphs/ seems to indicate that 100% of the blocks that this group attempts are found by this group. This seems odd because from what I understand about bitcoin mining, which is not very much, this is very improbable. Am I reading the graph incorrectly, have the blocks that were solved by others been edited out of the data, or am I making some other silly mistake?

Thank you in advance for you replies

1. I don't think so.
2. You are hashing a block with pool owners address, so you won't get the coins.
3. Just no. Someone better should explain it though.

I got only one question. Where the heck can you even buy these things like "PICO EX-300?" All I find are specs and specs. I guess you need to study computer engineering for 10 years just to see one of those?
