Hey everyone, I'm using Bitcoin for Linux, in Ubuntu, and when I open up the GUI client, it says there are no connections. I recently received 0,02 bitcoins from a bitcoin faucet, but I haven't got them yet....my bitcoin software is stuck at 107027 blocks, , and it won't generate any more blocks, or anything. I'd really appreciate any help you could give. Thanks and have a nice day.

You must have missed the "=" or added a space after -addnode= Close the client and try again bitcoin -addnode=69.164.218.197 -addnode=64.22.103.150 -addnode=173.242.112.53 -addnode=178.79.147.99 -addnode=184.106.111.41 -addnode=91.85.220.84 -addnode=173.224.125.222 -addnode=86.5.50.90 -addnode=178.255.199.86

This worked for me in a similar situation now, but I couldn't see any pointer to an updated list of IP addresses to use with the --addnode command. I found this list, and guess it would be the right list to use: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Fallback_Nodes
