Hi,

I packaged Kiv's poclbm guiminer into a bundled standalone Mac OS X Binary (app) using py2app and some funky voodoo patching action.

You can get it from here: https://github.com/downloads/pletoss/poclbm/guiminer-poclbm-macosx.dmg and give it a try. I hope this works for everybody.

It's important to drag it out of the dmg to some place where it is writable before running since it needs to be able to write some log files in the app. Dragging it to Applications as usual should work.

If you're interested in the voodoo: https://github.com/pletoss/poclbm.

Cheers,
Pletoss

Also - join our pool - btcmp.com, I added api support for balance updating and withdraw into guiminer. It's true pay per share, so no variance what so ever, you instantly get BTC's for each share you submit. We've been mining since July.

I still don't follow. Is the idea for the "gambling pool" to actually mine and therefore have participants submit proof of work hashes? Or is the idea for participants to buy in - in which case, i don't see how hashing is relevant.

I don't see the appeal of this. How would it be better than solo mining?

Hi,

my guess is you just started all the AmdOverdriveCtrl processes one after the other, instead of in parallel, and they all await the other to finish. Could you please post your script for me to take a look?

Hi,

I'm a dev of the new bitcoin pool @ www.btcmp.com, and wanted to properly introduce it to the bitcoin forum as well. Please allow me to do that.

Thanks very much.

Hi,

I'm Pletoss. I'm a developer and a miner of the new bitcoin mining pool www.btcmp.com. I wanted to describe it and offer some support here too, but seems i need a couple more posts to do that. Of course it has 0% fee and we're always incorporating the bleeding edge of pool features like native bitcoind longpolling, but more on that in a separate thread, once i'm able to.

Cheers
