Thanks for the update Kiv! Glad to see my 0.05 donation was not wasted!  Wink

I personally enjoy geeky stuff like .7z and would love to run BitCoin on my OpenBSD box if Nvidia or ATI drivers were available for the OS. But a good rule of thumb is to use the KISS principle - "Keep It Simple Stupid".

The .exe installer for Windows gets my vote!

Difficulty 1 hash means that your number was really close to the winning number, but you didn't win. It's just shown to give you an idea of how many tries your GPU has made, and so you can say "ohhh, I was only off by one number, maybe I'll win next time" Smiley

Sounds like the story of my life!

I did fire up RivaTuner and it boosted the card up to 18.0 Mhash/s from 16.4 Mhash/s. I can't seem to find any 5970 GPU over here in Sweden. Will research a close alternative card.

Also, looks like the slush pool is closed at this time. Any recommendations of another good pool?

Thanks and here's a small tip of 0.05 until I purchase or create some more!  Smiley

Working OK for me also so far.  Smiley

I only have a Cuda/OpenCL capable 9600GT w/1GB vram in an AMD X2 box running Win7. Any extra flags needed? Terminal only shows -server flag as far as I can tell.  GPU only crunching 16.4 Mhash/s but that's much better than the CPU's 1460 Khash/s!

Also status area shows "Difficulty 1 hashes:33". Can anyone tell me what this means?

Thanks for any tips and I'm happy to contribute to this project as a hobby for now!

P.S...I also need the developers BitCoin address so I can donate after I purchase or create some BTC. Edit: I found the address under his first post.
