So just learning about Bitcore.  So in order to participate in the airdrop, I have to sign the message AIRDROP in my BTX Wallet.  That requires me to download the entire BTX blockchain correct before I can sign the message?  Right now the client says it will take me 13 weeks to download the blockchain.  Do I have to download the entire blockchain to sign the message?  If I do, is there a place where I can download an up to date copy of the blockchain to speed up this process?  Thanks guys!

the entire blockchain is still small in size, you will download it in no time (even with an average internet connection)

You were right.  Already synced.  Thanks.

I am loading up an old wallet from 2014 to see what was in it and I found about 120 or so Monero.  I was going to transfer this to an exchange but my output says:

Error: Failed to find a way to create transactions. This is usually due to dust which is so small it cannot pay for itself in fees, or trying to send more money than the unlocked balance, or not leaving enough for fees

So I looked at the log and it says:

WARN    wallet.simplewallet   src/simplewallet/simplewallet.cpp:2491   not enough money to transfer, available only 123.082344170105, transaction amount 128.195681160000 = 123.000000000000 + 5.195681160000 (fee)

So is there REALLY an over 5 XMR fee for sending Monero or am I doing something wrong?  I mean if that is the fee for sending transactions I don't know how Monero is still alive.  I am guessing that I am doing wrong on my part.  Thanks for your help.

Your wallet most likely has a lot of (small) inputs, which makes the size of the transaction fairly large. A typical RingCT transaction currently is around 20-25 cents. In addition, if I recall correctly, the fee will be slightly lower after the upcoming hard fork (April 15).

Given that you own a wallet with a lot of (small) inputs. I'd advise to do as follows.

[1] Run the sweep_unmixable command in monero-wallet-cli. This will combine all your small unmixable inputs into a single output. That is, it will basically "undust" your "dust".

[2] Subsequently, you should be able to use sweep_all to send your full balance to a different address (if that is your intend). Note that the fee will be subtracted from the total balance. Thus, if you, for instance, have 100 XMR and the transaction costs 0.1 XMR (fee), 99.9 XMR will be sent to the recipient and the miner that includes your transaction into a block will take 0.1 XMR as fee.

That is very good info thank you.  Yes I there are a lot of small transactions when I was pool mining way back when.  I am getting this now when running the command:

Balance: 123.082344523698, unlocked balance: 123.082344523698
[wallet 111111]: sweep_unmixable
Wallet password:
Error: internal error: Transaction cannot pay for itself

Also, Every time I run the monero-wallet-cli.exe I get the green transaction and the received then I eventually get to a prompt where I can type commands.  Earlier my wallet was only showing 59 monero now it is showing 123 and not sure why it has changed.  Pleasant surprise.  Thanks for your help btw.

[1] Like your error states, the amount of unmixable inputs does not exceed the fee that would be needed to consolidate them into one big output. I'd advise to try sweep_all then and see if you are able to get the full balance out. If not, try using smaller amounts and create multiple transactions.

[2] You are most likely not saving monero-wallet-cli properly and thus it has to fetch new blocks (which contain your transaction) every time on startup. Make sure to exit monero-wallet-cli by typing exit instead of clicking on the x. In addition, with the "show_transfers" command you can see a record of your past transactions.

Thanks for the response.  I am trying trying to find good documentation on how to use the sweep_all command and I am having trouble.  Can you tell me the proper syntax?


I manged to find some commands and ran:

sweep_all <address> <payment id> and I get:

Error: not enough outputs for specified mixin_count = 4:
output amount = 0.000344170105, found outputs to mix = 1

Could you try the transfer command with a small(er) amount? The command is transfer <address> <amount> <payment_id>. In addition, you can type "help" into monero-wallet-cli to find which commands are available and their documentation.

I tried it with just 10 XMR using command:

transfer <address> <amount> <payment_id>
Wallet password:
Sending 10.000000000000.  Your transaction needs to be split into 3 transactions.  This will result in a transaction fee being applied to each transaction, for a total fee of 0.185646781530
Is this okay?  (Y/Yes/N/No):

Is this fee high for this?

I have 4x GIGABYTE GV-R928XOC-3GD REV2 Radeon R9 280X 3GB that I have been using mining zcash.  Is it just a matter of flashing this rom in the via atiflash that is in the original post?  That's it?

Depends, check which memory type you got with each of those GPUs.

Use GPU-Z. If you got Hynix for all of them, flash with the Gigabyte 7970 Hynix ROM posted above.

Do one GPU at a time in case something fails.

I have 4x Gigabyte 3GB all with GDDR5 (Elipida).  GPU Clock 1100MHZ - Memory 1500MHZ

I have 1x VisionTek 3GB with GDDR5 (Samsung).  GPU Clock 1050MHZ - Memory 1500MHZ

Thanks!



For your Gigabyte 280x try

https://mega.nz/#!K9l3jDCT!z8tmV57GkU6JEHxgaZhkOdCMMS09XF9a0z5YJfyyZJg

Its slightly undervolted, so increase voltage if you have instability and slowly increase to 1100Mhz/ 1575Mhz from 1000/1500Mhz stock.

Elipida is always slower and that card only runs at 108Sol/s for me @ 1000/1500. Try 1100/1575Mhz and if its stable you might get up to 120Sol/s.


For your Samsung, I got nothing.

I have flashed the rom you mentioned above with atiflash to one of the Gigabyte (Elipida) cards.  I am getting 95 - 97 H/s.  When you say "Try 1100/1575Mhz" do you mean modify the rom itself with VBE7.0.0.7b.exe to match those numbers, save it, and reflash the card with the new file or do you mean set those settings in MSI Afterburner?  Forgive me for my lack of knowledge this whole mining thing is new to me and I am trying to learn.  Thank you!  Anything I can do to the bat?  Here is how it looks now and thanks!

I went back and tried to install the official AMD drivers thinking that was the problem.

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 unity-control-center : Depends: libcheese-gtk23 (>= 3.4.0) but it is not going to be installed
                        Depends: libcheese7 (>= 3.0.1) but it is not going to be installed
E: Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by held packages.
mine@mine:~/silentarmy$  

I am on 14.04 using 5x 280x.  I was on 16.04 until I realized that they don't make drivers for the 280x for that version of Ubuntu so I downgraded.  Doesn't matter to me which version I am on.  This is strictly a mining machine.  Thanks for your time.

If you are on 14.04 there is no need to install the official AMD drivers. Just "sudo apt-get install fglrx" as documented in silentarmy's README.md
The fglrx package is the drivers nicely repackaged/redistributed by Ubuntu.


I figured I would start fresh yet again and have done a clean install of Ubuntu 14.04.  After it booted up the first command I typed was "sudo apt-get install fglrx" and the system complained about not having libcheese so I installed that and then ran sudo apt-get install fglrx. I then did a reboot and when I open a terminal there are colors/artifacts and I read any windows.

Ubuntu noob here.  Can someone give instructions how to compile this?

I have been trying to get the install to work using the instructions as I am fairly new to Ubuntu.  I read the aarticle below that says I can't install the newest drivers on 16.04.  What are my options.  Do I somehow downgrade to 14.04 or use what is default to Ubuntu?  Will that affect my performance hashing?

fglrx is no longer supported on 16.04. AMD discontinued support for its Linux driver, and it isn't compatible (you will break your installation if you attempt to install fglrx on 16.04).

For now, you have to stick with the open source drivers. AMD may be releasing a proprietary driver for Linux that works with 16.04, but it probably won't support very many cards.

Here's a comparison of how the default drivers on 16.04 compare to fglrx on 14.04, if you want to take a look:

I've not noticed much of a difference with hashrates - the review you linked is "canned" performance metrics.

There is a pretty good tutorial on his GitHub https://github.com/mbevand/silentarmy
specifically for Ubuntu 16.04. I've found minimal hashrate drops for supported cards (I had 390s and (1) 390X), compared with fglrx.
My 480s do ~40sols each with one-third the heat and power consumption - pretty good trade-off IMHO.

So are you saying just skip the amd driver inatall and use the stock ubuntu 16.04 drivers for my 280x cards and there is not much difference in hash rates or downgrade to 14.04 is best you think so I can use the amd drivers?

Hashrates using the silentarmy v2 kernel:

R9 Fury X @1050/500 - 35-40 Sol/s
R9 290 & 390 @ 1060/1500 - 32-34 Sol/s
R9 280x @ 957/1200 - 28-32 Sol/s

Overall I'm really happy with the performance, but fixing the stability so it doesn't crash every time would make it even better  Wink

I have 5x 280x cards.  When you say 957/1200, does that mean Core/Mem?  Have you modified your actual rom file to those numbers and then flashed your bios with ATI flash or does 957/1200 mean something different and something you can set in windows?  If it is something different, can you tell me how to set those numbers?  I want to try your settings on my 280x cards.  Thanks!

The card is underclocked. using afterburner.

Thanks.  I am using afterburner for the 957/1200 on the 280x and I max at about 21 Sol/s.  Are you doing -w or -i in your command line?  Anything that I might have missed?  Thanks again.
