cheers, thanks for the site!

What kind of hardware do you need for the "scrypt" based ones. I was looking at Litecoin

Anyone know which alt coins a USB ASIC "Block Erupter" mining hardware will work with?

they can never break even with bitcoins now...

anyone have any steps on how to update after I've saved my scripts etc?
10  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: LinuxCoin A lightweight Debian based OS with everything ready to go. on: July 01, 2011, 11:49:00 PM
So, I'm running 0.2b now. When the next version comes out, can I just overwrite the 1st partition with the new iso and keep my persistent partition and my stuff with stay? or do I have to start over with each upgrade?

apparently I've been running the "bad" version, haven't noticed anything... what was the issue?

anyway, any ideas on my question above?

what are you using as a remote power switch? and can you link the watchdog software or whatever that is?

5830 "tweaked" at 318 Mhash/s? How, exactly? water cooling + 50% overclock?
14  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: LinuxCoin A lightweight Debian based OS with everything ready to go. on: June 28, 2011, 06:15:52 AM
almost forgot, anyone here implement anything like:

1. publishing the temps and mhash/s etc to a website for remote summary?
2. a script that will kill the miner(s) if the temps get too high?

I've started to play with (1)!
I have currently got my hashrate, accepted, invalid and card temps to be displayed on the linux box via apache.. After I make it a little more usable for others, I'll release this for you.

That's awesome. I wish I had more unix scripting skills.

Hey man can you tell me how to do a simple script to start my miners just by clicking a file on my desktop.  I use the poclbm miner.  Sometimes my computer freezes and i need to restart for some odd reason.  It doesn't have to be fancy.. I'd just like to start them by clicking a file. (or 3 separte files for seperate miners) Smiley

I will send you a bitcoin when I get on my other computer with my wallet.. Peace.

Are you guys booting with the persistence option ?

Thanks for all the email and host links guys !! I'll reply to you all tomorrow as its very late now and I need to get some sleep Cheesy

PS:

Check out this demo of linuxcoin acting a s a pxe server and distributing itself Wink

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VfVN4l3RomI

If you can create a bit for bit image file of an 8gb partitioned persistent stick running .2b, that would make a lot of people's lives a lot easier. The persistence doesn't work, even after modifying syslinux.cfg in the windows readable portion of the stick. In .2b there's no /media/x09sd9fj to unmount.

Is it possible to instead create a bin or img file that can be written bit for bit to an equally partitioned usb stick? There are sure to be a few windows based programs that allow for bit level cloning ala ghost.

I'll pay you or anyone else $50 for this tutorial/image file via paypal. I want to see LinuxCoin own.

What is the problem? you make 2 partitions, one fat32 and put the linuxcoin image on it with unetbootin. The second, leave as free space. boot in default mode, follow the "old" guide..

if you have /dev/sda1 as the linuxcoin partition:

fdisk /dev/sda
n
p
2
enter
enter
w

shutdown, restart choosing persistent mode

mkfs.ext4 /dev/sda2 -L live-rw
enter
enter

sudo df

you should see:
/dev/sda1 ... /live/image
/dev/sda2 ... /live/cow

now shutdown, plug the usb stick into your pc and edit /live/image/syslinux.cfg and put the last 2 lines under persistent where the last 2 lines for default were. now it will be persistent mode by default

Nifty progress today.

Code: (/home/user/.config/autostart/auto.desktop)
[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Name=coin
Exec=lxterminal --command "/home/user/start.sh"
Terminal=true

Code: (/home/user/start.sh)
#!/bin/bash
xhost +
echo $DISPLAY > /home/user/.display
lxterminal --title miner1_start --command "/home/user/miner1.sh"
lxterminal --title miner2_start --command "/home/user/miner2.sh"

Code: (/home/user/miner1.sh)
#!/bin/bash
cd /opt/miners/phoenix
./phoenix.py -u http://__USER__:__PASSWORD__@__PROXY/POOL__:__PORT__/ -k phatk BFI_INT VECTORS FASTLOOP=false AGGRESSION=11 DEVICE=0

Code: (/home/user/miner2.sh)
#!/bin/bash
cd /opt/miners/phoenix
./phoenix.py -u http://__USER__:__PASSWORD__@__PROXY/POOL__:__PORT__/ -k phatk BFI_INT VECTORS FASTLOOP=false AGGRESSION=11 DEVICE=1

Code: (/home/user/restart.sh)
#!/bin/bash
export DISPLAY=`cat /home/user/.display`
pc=`ps waxuf | grep miner1.sh -c`
ld=`aticonfig --odgc --adapter=0 | grep "GPU load" | cut -c 30-35 | cut -d % -f 1`
if [[ $pc -lt 2 ||  $ld -lt 50 ]] ; then
 killall -KILL miner1.sh
 nohup lxterminal --title miner1 --command /home/user/miner1.sh &
fi
pc=`ps waxuf | grep miner2.sh -c`
ld=`aticonfig --odgc --adapter=1 | grep "GPU load" | cut -c 30-35 | cut -d % -f 1`
if [[ $pc -lt 2 ||  $ld -lt 50 ]] ; then
 killall -KILL miner2.sh
 nohup lxterminal --title miner2 --command /home/user/miner2.sh &
fi

Code: (crontab -e)
1,11,21,31,41,51 * * * * /home/user/restart.sh

miner1.sh and miner2.sh are owned by root.root, and are setuid/setgid (mode 6755) while the others are owned by user.user and are mode 0755.

Very simple to extend this to multiple miners, and it will restart any that are crashed or hung.

I'm using these scripts, everything seems to be working great.

2x 5830 @ 900/300
using phoenix, k phatk PLATFORM=0 DEVICE=1 VECTORS BFI_INT FASTLOOP=false WORKSIZE=128 AGGRESSION=12
getting 272-273 Mhash/s on each card

top card is 71C, bottom is 65C

this is a temp setup though and will have my boards for 4 cards soon and moving to a better cooling platform

Getting a bunch of "deprecation warning" messages using phoenix, linuxcoin 0.2b ?

Seems to be just when I start it up?

'enqueue_read_buffer' has been deprecated in version 2011.1. Please use enqueue_copy() instead.
