I mine at xhash and miningpool.co and i receive leaf from both. My hash rate is about 100 khash/s an i've mined about 9k leafs. Both those pools send me leaf from my account when i ask for them. They both have auto release you can set at whatever you want. I'm not sure if they are paying out the full percentage of leafs my hashrate makes but I get leaf 

I'm trying to mine mintcoin with cudaminer (setup an benchmarked) to link to a stratum pool. I have no idea what the next step is. I read something about a .bat file but not sure how to write one of those. I'm using linux mint 16 kde, cuda-5.5, cudaminer-master, and a 460gtx. I want to run the miner in the background while i do my thing on my computer. Its usually running 14 hrs a day so figured I might as well mine in the background. Any help would be great since most info on the web is for cgminer (ati cards) an windows. I'm a newbie when it comes to mining so any help explained in lamens terms would be great.
