New stats available. Click "live stats" at the top of a bitminter webpage.
Hm I have been running bitminter for just about 2 hours, but it says the not logged in / workers idle message when I click on my stats. Help? I don't want to waste my time on mining if my work is not being recognized. And I do know that it was running overnight until I restarted my system a couple hours ago [for other reasons]If the client was running and doing work, then there should not be a problem. If you tried the "live stats" on the webpage and it said you are logged out or your workers are idle, when the workers are in fact not idle, then it's probably because you were logged out. It could be that you didn't actually log out yourself, but that your session timed out. Try logging into the website and then click live stats again.
If you want to see that your work was registered, just log into the website and look in the account details - listed with each worker are how many proofs-of-work they delivered this round and how many they delivered in total.
