1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: Gridcoin (GRC) - first coin utilizing BOINC - Official Thread on: December 10, 2013, 06:42:56 AM
Dalekmun,

To find out approx. how long it'll take you to find a block do this. First look at either explorer.gridcoin.us or type getmininginfo in your Debug console to get the total network hashrate. Currently it's 28,000 kh/s (or 28 mh/s). Then, divide your hashrate by the network hashrate and just convert it to a fraction that's 1/x

Let's say your hashrate is 300kh/s. So 300/28,000 = 1/93.3 so you'll find approx 1 block out of ever 94. Each block is 2.5 min so 94 * 2.5 = 235 min = 3 hour 55 min.

Wait, it said my other 2 shares (Or whatever they're called) where stale. Anything I can do about this? http://sdrv.ms/1byJLQK
I'm guessing it means I solved the block, but someone beat me to it, or my network connection was too slow.

Ah, Thanks! That's really helpful!

I just looked at my rig, and it said that I have "Found Block on pool 0" Pic related: http://sdrv.ms/1ffanah
Does this mean I have found a block? It's not showing up in my wallet.

From what I read that doesn't particularly mean you found a block. It's confusing I know. If you find a block it would probably say accepted under your summary in guiminer as below

Are you pool mining btw?

Not pool mining, none accepted. How long does it usually take for you to find a block at your speed?

Looks like running as admin worked; Thank you so much!

run the gridcoin client as administrator. also you might have to specify the boinc install path and boinc data path in gridcoin.conf

Hi, I'm hoping someone could help me out here:
I'm running BOINC on my server, so I can only install BOINC 5.10.45.
Boink utilization always displays as 0.
In the mining instructions PDF it says in step 9
"9. Launch Gridcoin-qt. Click on the mining console menu. Click register mining
module. This will register the boinc.dll with the OS, that will allow communication
between boinc, cgminer and gridcoin-qt. Note: If you do not register the DLL, boinc
utilization will always show as zero. "
I didn't have to do this on a device running the latest BOINC, and I can't even see the "register mining
module" option anywhere.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

I put some in yesterday and it took about 2 hours, then when I tried to trade them my account went into the negatives.
I emailed CoinMKT, they said they where being DDoS'd, and that it would take the rest of the day for everyone's wallets to re-sync.

Deepbit uses its own blocks to handle payments to keep fees low, we have only had one block in the last 2 days.
You won't get payed till we get another (Or the one that was found 2 hours ago(Wich was 50% people taking everything out of deepbit(because everyone is abandoning deepbit(you should to))))

Yeah, you're screwed.

Hello I have currently been waiting for 48+ hours for a miner payout to clear. If I Google the tx#, it seems that it has been rejected. Please advise.

It looks like Deepbit hasn't found a block since your miner payout was started.  Deepbit historically has not included proper fees for miner payouts, relying on their own pool to confirm the payout transaction for free instead.  At the current pool hash rate, that might be a very long wait.

Great. Ive gotten satoshis from the fountain quicker than a miner payout. Thanks Deepbit.
Don't worry, I'll be mining till I can get my last payout, so we'll get a block, eventually...

LOL i dont undertstand who would still mine in this pool
So I should probably jump ship?

I've been reading through the last few dozen pages, is deepbit dying?

But it might be a BUG...
He he, giant payout maybe?
I'll try bitminter.

This can't be right.
Wen will I get a payout? Doesn't look like I can trust this site.

Thanks Smiley

It's the least I can do!
Glad to help, use Yours BTC to make something good instead of sending them to me;)
Aw, thank you! You're too kind.

Seems like it's going fine.
I was going to run it all night but my computer went to sleep after a couple of hours (Yay for fresh install...)
Anyways, how long does it usually take to get a payout on p2pool?
When using the check stats I get this:
http://sdrv.ms/15zMJk2
I can kinda guess what it means, but 0.03 bitcoins already sounds like WAY too much.
Also, you guys wanna post your addresses? I did promise a month of free mining.

If this keeps working you guys are my heroes!
18  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Problems with HD5770 and GUIMiner on: August 01, 2013, 09:15:06 AM
you need to uninstall your catalyst and install 11.X (11.11 or so) , that will fix that issue.
Then use guiminer if you are not familiar with cgminer so much yet.
You mean this?

What now?

The simplest test would be to try p2pool.
CGMiner -o {p2pool URL & port} -u {your receiving address} -p {ignored. Type anything}
Try it out!
Will do, thanks!
I found BitMinter to have the easiest to use client for a beginner. I'm pretty tech savvy but trying to figure out the appropriate flags wasn't something I was overly interested in when all I wanted to do was mine so I landed there and I am still there after almost a month. Their client only allows you to mine with the BitMinter pool but again it was very easy and I'm happy with it.

I used a Sapphire 5770 clocked to 925 Core I was getting approx 200Mh/s on it. This was under Windows 7 with the latest drivers directly from ATI (I'm not sure which version anymore)

I'm also unable to view any of your photo links. Is it a protected album or something?
I'll try it.

Looks like the site broke my links, toy have to select all the text and put it in the URL bar, just clicking what's been hyperlinkd won't work.
