Thanks for clarification.

I was hoping it would be possible to do kinda merged mining (like it's possible with Bitcoind and Namecoin).

It's from AMD after all. So most probably 100% CPU load and 10% less mining performance 

Can I use p2pool to mine Bitcoins and with the --merged flag also mine Litecoins at the same time?

Me?

spiccioli posted this:"This fact that is not possibile to tell exactly what was found and when is a big problem, IMHO, which could stop miners from switching to p2pool."

Here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=18313.msg741069#msg741069

According to Micah Villmow / AMD with Catalyst 12.1a preview it should be possible to run 6970 and 7970 in one host.

See: http://devgurus.amd.com/message/1278533

But this posting also states that the 100% CPU load bug is back. *grrrrrrrrrrrr*

What's the cuttoff currently?

+1

p2pool claims to be totally transparent. Users having full control (as in opposite to big mining pools).

Yet we don't even know for sure when / what was found.

I haven't received any payments in the last few days.

They also don't show up here: https://blockexplorer.com/address/1Kz5QaUPDtKrj5SqW5tFkn7WZh8LmQaQi4

yep.

[Edit] I am using Windows. namecoind seems to be a bit flaky. At the moment it hangs at a "namecoind getinfo" ... :/

get a life dude ...

For merges mining, I get this error messages:

Tested with latest version from git and also with forrestv-p2pool-5293db4.


[Edit] Maybe that's because namecoind is still downloading blocks?
[Edit2] No, thats not it.

Is it planned for Slush to support Merged Mining (Bitcoind + Namecoin, like BTC Guild does) in the near future?

 

We already had this here.

NMC are basically just a "byproduct" of Bitcoin mining. So every pool without NMC payout keeps them.

Is it planned for DeepBit to support Merged Mining (Bitcoind + Namecoin, like BTC Guild does) in the near future?

Is it planned for p2pool to support Merged Mining (Bitcoind + Namecoin, like BTC Guild does) in the near future?

Did you maroon me on my own private pool because you can't bear my ranting any more?   ... kidding.

Is there a valid theory to why this pool splits happen?

Huh!?!?! Whats going on here? Pool: 10458MH/s ? Pool stales: 48% ?

Seriously, Holliday, why do you take this so personal!? Maybe you should take a ... Holiday?
