I have a 5850 mining rig. ASIC's got released. Now what do I do?
Litecoin mining - can't get it to work.
Namecoin mining - ASIC's can mine that too.

Every time a block is mined, a certain amount of BTC (called the subsidy) is created out of thin air and given to the miner. The subsidy halves every four years and will reach 0 in about 130 years.

ASICs have not been released.  And likely will not be in the wild for some time.  (IMO.  Others will likely disagree with me.)

Why can't you get litecoin working?  What's the problem?

Now, let's say you and I go toe-to-toe on bird law and see who comes out the victor?  The Attorney: You know, I don't think I'm going to do anything close to that and I can clearly see you know nothing about the law.

Have you tried this guide for cgminer?  https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=117221.0

I use cgminer for LTC all the time, and don't have any problem using scrypt.
