If the Ponzi is closed, then all that crazy China volume could easily disappear overnight and then there goes the artificial support for the price.

I'm selling here just to be safe and will buy back at $280 or so.

I CPU mined the whole weekend  in mining.bitcoin.cz pool with cgminer using a quad i5 desktop core, and got just
.01 BTC

My rate 9 MHash/s on average (pretty bad uh?!)

Am I doing something wrong, there is some way to use the processing power of CPU more effectivly (maybe with pools that make use of the higher instruction x86 architecture have) or is just pointless mining?

Hi everyone,
I followed the bitcoin project for a little bit, intrigued by its implication and P2P economic vision, and now wanted to start mining (not for making real profit, mostly for learning purposes).

My PC at the University, that I want to use mostly, is an i5 with 8800 GTS with mounted CentOS 6.2
I tampered with it for more than the whole morning not being able to running GPU mining with cgminer.

Of cgminer
There is the repo version 1.6.2 that is compiled without GPU predisposition, and is working just fine.
I download the tarball installer of the latest 2.7.5 version, but while configuring the compilation it exit with the following error:

  OpenCL...............: NOT FOUND. GPU mining support DISABLED

I'm pretty sure that I've OpenCL installed (in /usr/lib64/nvidia/ there are some libcuda.so and some libOpenCL.so), I tried to hardlink with LDFLAGS=-L/usr/lib64/nvidia but without results...
any comments or suggestions?

Do anyone know if the is the intention of baking a repo version for RHEL6 with GPU support?
