1  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Bitcoin-Qt crashing on start-up (0.8 - Mac) on: February 26, 2013, 11:11:28 PM
Try moving the contents data directory to a temporary location (like your desktop) then running the bitcoin-qt client.  If this works then some file in you data directory is corrupted.

P.S.  How do you show hidden folders on a mac so you can reach the bitcoin data directory?
P.P.S.  Where is the bitcoin data directory on a mac?

sudo chflags nohidden /path/to/directory if memory serves me and ~/Library/Application Support/Bitcoin.

3  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Quad HD 7970 Bitcoin Miner - PSU Req.? on: February 24, 2013, 10:34:47 PM
Hi,

I'm building a Bitcoin miner and plan to add 3 more graphics cards once I get it up and running. So that's 4 x 7970 GHz Edition cards and I don't think the 1000W PSU I picked out is going to be enough. What say you?

$482.00 Gigabyte Radeon HD 7970 – 3GB GDDR5 – (1100MHz, 6000MHz) Ghz Edition GV-R797TO-3GD
$339.00 Intel Core i7 3770K Quad Core CPU
$312.00 Antec 1000W HCP Platinum Series PSU
$207.00 ASUS P8Z77-V Mainboard
$163.00 Fractal Design Define R4 USB3.0 Mid Tower Case Titanium
$107.00 Corsair 16GB (2x8GB) DDR3 1600MHz CL10 LP Vengeance Unbuffered
$84.00 Intel 330s/60GB/SATA3/R 500MBs,W 450MBs/25nm/3.5"Kit

Total $1,694.00 (plus 3 x $482.00 Radeon HD 7970 in future). No current plans to over clock, but might do I future. My alternative was to put a Corsair 1200W AX-1200i $395... Better to be safe??

Note: Prices are in Australian $.

Kind regards,
QG
P.S: I know I might be a little late with the GPU mining, but I'm not doing this for the money. More for fun and research. Might use the PC for a gaming PC after a year or two.

You  may want to PM the maintainer of the cgminer software ckovalis he had/has a 4x 7970 rig running so should be able to tell you the power needs also seen mention he was thinking of selling it off, he is fellow aussie so you may be able to work out deal with him and save some cash.
4  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: What should be the overall speed(Mhash) for 2 radeon 7970? on: February 24, 2013, 10:06:44 PM
What should be the total rate for two Radeon 7970?
Use the Linux system
Program: cgminer 2.10.5
That he wrote to me:
(5s) 783M (avg) 626 Mh / s
GPU 0: 69C 5073RPM 322.6M/314Mh/s A: 192
GPU 1: 46C 1070RPM (Huh) 322.2M/313.5Mh/s A: 223

Until the hour i use it, statistics on the pool says 572 Mh / s
Tell that to the normal speed for 2 video cards or something I did wrong?
Why in the second rotational speed is so small and the temperature is lower?
I would be grateful for answers.

Outside card is always cooler as it gets better access to the air. And that is way too low for your hash rate on mine I used to use this in my .cgminer/cgminer.conf.

Code:

"intensity" : "8,8",
"gpu-engine" : "0-1100,0-1100",
"gpu-memclock" : "950,950",
"gpu-threads" : "2",
"auto-fan" : true,
"auto-gpu" : true,
"temp-target" : "75",
"gpu-fan" : "0-100",
"log" : "5",
"queue" : "1",
"retry-pause" : "5",
"scan-time" : "60",
"donation" : "0",
"shares" : "0",
"api-listen" : true,
"api-network" : true,
"api-port" : "4028",
"kernel-path" : "/usr/local/bin"

I have modified it for your use give these settings a try it should just about double your hash rate. You may even want to raise the "temp-target" : "75" to 80 depending on how hot you want the card to get or if it starts to throttle at that temperature.

What would the cgminer .bat look like to get those same settings?

Better off using a cgminer.conf file to do it but if wanting to put it in a .bat then.

Code:
cgminer --intensity 8,8 --gpu-engine 0-1100,0-1100 --gpu-memclock 950,950 --auto-fan --auto-gpu --temp-target 75 ....

Basically put a -- in front of the option you want used on the command line in the .bat.

Someone here that has cgminer on a ddwrt?

I'm unable how to start cgminer with the flags "--api-listen and --api-network".
Normal starting procedure looks like this "service cgminer start"....

Where do i put these flags?

./cgminer-2.10.5 --no-submit-stale --api-listen --api-allow W:127.0.0.1,R:192.168.0.0/24

btw your supposed lawyer can't even answer emails so hope you have a better defense lawyer  Cheesy

He has engaged a criminal defence law firm not a business/contractual one so that is his criminal lawyer. 


As long as VPS isn't a criminal or terrorist organization I believe that they can hold onto the dividends of unclaimed bonds until they are claimed and/or determined to be "Unclaimed Property" which seems to be until May 23, 2013.

A judge would realize that VPS is just trying to comply with "regulatory and taxation" laws and responsibilities. I assume VPS has all the necessary documentation to report the funds they earned from selling bonds and mining bitcoins. They have certain responsibilities and duties when it comes to receiving documentation on bond holders as well.


He has sold securities (a bond) without license a criminal offence that is why he has people committing perjury when claiming a supposed contract in the claim form when people originally purchased a bond. BTW people may want to contact the IRS to ensure he has indeed reported this income.

EDIT: I ran 'sudo cgminer -c /usr/local/etc/cgminer.conf', (sudo to get around dialout privledgess).

Try sudo adduser your_user_name dialout logout then back in.

Pretty sure the butthurt should be directed at GLBSE.

Indeed. Nefario does deserve a good portion of it.

The trolls can blame whomever they like. I am here to move forward and to keep moving forward in confidence. That is what the claims process is all about.

As for those who are waiting on claims to be processed, I have not received this weeks claims from Quentin and continue to try and get in touch with him.

Best,
James

The claims process is about protecting your ass and enriching yourself at others expense.
9  Bitcoin / Mining software (miners) / Re: CGminer v2.10.0 on Broadcom based DD-WRT / OpenWRT on: February 21, 2013, 07:56:56 PM
I deleted the ink files and made the symbolic links as you described, but i do have (again beginners) issues with lsusb.

if i call it i get this error message:
Code:
root@DD-WRT-FPGA:~# lsusb
lsusb: can't load library 'libusb-0.1.so.4'
root@DD-WRT-FPGA:~#

This is after renaming all the default libusb files and a restart of the router. Looks like this now:
Code:
libusb-0.1.so.4.4.4.txt            
libusb-0.1.so.4.txt
libusb-1.0.so
libusb-1.0.so.0
libusb-1.0.so.0.1.0
libusb.so.txt


How do i get lsusb to use the other libusb libraries? As i understand this lsusb uses the default files and i have to set a dependency somewhere? That dependency will be necessary for cgminer to use the "new" libusb files as well.

There is no easy way to do this?

Sry that i have to ask all these noob questions. If i get it working ill donate towards your effort.



Try as root ldconfig to have the cache for the libraries installed rebuilt and check in the /etc/ld.so.conf file to be sure the directory you copied into is present in that file so it will find them.

Edit: This page has couple of more commands you can try.

So is anything being done about this attack? I havent mine TRC in more than a day....

To be honest the only solution is to wait. Attackers paid for certain amount of "ddosing time". We have to wait until they run out of money. Otherwise we have to buy ddos protection which would cost us much more that attackers paid. It is sad but it is true.
PS
ISP doesn't help a lot. They are periodically disconnecting our server from internet because they are "protecting" their network.


I'm completely ignorant on how much this kind of stuff costs.  How much would you "wild ballpark guess" that a DDOS like this would cost, and how much would the DDOS protection cost? And who would you pay the DDOS protection cost to?  Your server hosting company?

What honest user is buying and selling to themselves? It would not effect them in any way and if it is such a non-problem why has it been legislated into law for just about any exchange that is in existence. You know them puny little things like the NY and London Stock Exchanges.. This coin shit is just like gambling it is always nice to know your about to sit down at a rigged table or the dice have been shaved/weighted.

My point was that I don't see it as dishonest... it's a tactic anyone can use if they like. IF you make a rule against it, ONLY the honest users will be bound by it.

What's your rational? Saying there's a law is no argument at all, there's a million stupid laws. I honestly don't get why you'd want to monkey with a free market by stacking on rules that you can't even enforce.



No doubt plenty around here like you that defend the indefensible.
13  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: BTC-E questionable practices on: February 16, 2013, 05:13:34 AM
See no one has mentioned the questionable practice of the buying and selling to yourself that every exchange I have ever tested it on allows you to do. A nice bonus feature for the market manipulators on all the exchanges.

Anyone could easily get around a rule like that by using multiple accounts. It'd add complexity to the system and only effect honest users.

I've never tried to manipulate things that way (I don't think it would work too well), but since everyone knows it possible and can do it themselves I don't see it as a problem.

Still waiting on one CC refund and 2 BTC refunds from 8th of january.

No refund yet  Sad



Well then you want to get in touch with your CC provider as my refund asked for date was similar to yours maybe a day or two earlier and it has been refunded to my account for weeks. When you do get in touch make sure to mention this was pre-order as the expected date of delivery is when the clock starts ticking for a chargeback not the order date. If it was not so I would have been screwed if I had had to do chargeback as I was over the 90 day limit from my provider when I requested the refund using the order date as the start point.

Define "the scam".

I doubt most of you even know what the most important unanswered question is. Hint: it isn't even related to NVC.

I know what the most important one for me is where is the listing of the accounts trading in the buy and sell transactions so we can see which accounts trade with each other on every trade. I'm pretty sure that would be very interesting to see and do an analysis on.

Edit: I would add that would be nice to see on all these exchanges that allow you to buy and sell to yourself as btc-e is not the only one, in short it has been there on every one I have every been on and tested to see if it was possible.
18  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: BTC-E still exist? on: February 15, 2013, 09:38:15 PM
One tab open, host file modified, incognito used.
To be honest one should always avoid modifying hosts file and use it only as last resort. It's DNS' responsibility to update IP addresses. You can try to use
Code:
ipconfig /flushdns
to clear you local dns cache. If it won't help just wait for dns records to update. It can take up to 24 hours if I recall correctly.

It depends on the TTL setting used in their setup but that would be the standard time to use, apparently they could not be bothered using the disaster recovery method...

BTC-e...I have no strong feelings either way towards Novacoin. But I think you should remove it from the front page of your website, until things calm down a bit. Keep it going in the background like RUC/BTC, and if volume is high enough, then move it to the front. Just a suggestion.

I agree, I have no hate for NVC. Though for operations to return for everything else it needs to remain out of the limelight till it proves itself.

110K premined NVC is successfully destroyed  - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=144158
It shows that you were willing to take a bribe so you could be a bit richer while a lot of people are going to lose their money trading a scam currency. It's comparable gambling your cold store on satoshiDICE 50%, and saying, "hey, we won, so what?".

I won't go more into this - I've already expressed my opinions on BTC-e and I'd suggest everyone to stay away. Have a good day Smiley

Indeed once you get caught with your hand in the cookie jar kind of hard to say, well I put it back no harm no foul.
