I see that when the internet is disconnected and then reconnects poclbm doesn't resume. Would a router giving a dedicated 192... address solve this ? Or a static IP ? I mean is there a solution that when theres an internet disconnection poclbm resumes ?

According to NIST and ECRYPT II, the cryptographic algorithms used in
Bitcoin are expected to be strong until at least 2030. (After that, it
will not be too difficult to transition to different algorithms.)

Are you using latest version? There were some issues in older releases.

HELP :O
On my new rig, I've installed bitcoin and the poclbm miner. But whenever I run the batch, it freezes and stops responding. Right now it looks like:
start /DC:\bitcoin\poclbm poclbm.exe -d1 --host=deepbit.net --port=8332 --user=(user) --pass=(pass) --device=0 -v -w 128
While running bitcoin.exe -server
I've tried different pools, taking out the -d1, putting the poclbm in a different folder, but it just freezes the second I start it up.
What am I doing wrong? The format looks the exact same as my main rig but it's not working for some reason...

Was anyone able to recompile the program under Windows? I would try to modify some things (to thinker a little), but I don't have a linux box with a good graphical adaptor... I tried a little under Win but there are too many dependancies that need compiling, and I don't want to begin installing VS2008 just to recompile the pyopencl.

I was; you only need python and the dependencies. I had MSVC8 already, so that helped a great deal.

I am having some problems running this on multiple GPUs. Heres my setup: Ubuntu 10.10 32 bit running 3 Sapphire 5850's when I run poclbm without any arguments it will list all of my GPUs as such: - Cypress
[1] Cypress [2] Cypress [3] AMD Sempron(tm) 140 Process
So, i think great, its running! I then open a new terminal window and do the following: ./poclbm.py -d 0 --host=btcguild.com --port=8332 --user=MINER_gpu0 --pass=RPCPASS -v -w 128 It will fire up and run great, and give me decent hashrates since I have not overclocked them yet For example, I am getting about 250,000 Khash/s So, I open up second terminal window to get a miner running on the second GPU. I run the following in it: ./poclbm.py -d 1 --host=btcguild.com --port=8332 --user=MINER_gpu1 --pass=RPCPASS -v -w 128 It connects and works like normal, but the hasrate is off... it starts off slow, about 20,000 khash/sec, but then it will get to about 125,000 khash/sec. Its also at this point that I notice the first miner I ran earlier is also dropping its hasrate to about the same. Eventually both terminals will get to a point where their hasrates are equal and total up to about 250,000 Khash/sec...which is about what I get on one card! So, I am thinking that both miners are computing on the same GPU regardless of which device I specifiy in the command. What am I doing wrong?

That was happening for me, too, until I installed the ATI Catalyst 11.5 graphics drivers (which includes the SDK). Install the full package from their website.

Feature request: add server failover support (if one pool fails, fall back to the second pool) I've created a new thread covering a bounty for this new feature, that would be greatly appreciated by poclbm users.

Could anyone tell how to configure poclbm miner long-polling with pushpool? I already asked about this in pushpool thread, but no answer. Looks like long-polling doesn't work. Miner reports "long poll exception" and "invalid or stale" shares from time to time. Also miner occasionally reports 2011-06-01_09:31:57.70506 Traceback (most recent call last): 2011-06-01_09:31:57.71616 File "/poclbm/BitcoinMiner.py", line 259, in longPollThread 2011-06-01_09:31:57.71623 (connection, result) = self.request(connection, url, self.headers) 2011-06-01_09:31:57.71626 File "/poclbm/BitcoinMiner.py", line 222, in request 2011-06-01_09:31:57.71629 response = connection.getresponse() 2011-06-01_09:31:57.71631 File "/usr/lib/python2.6/httplib.py", line 990, in getresponse 2011-06-01_09:31:57.71634 response.begin() 2011-06-01_09:31:57.71637 File "/usr/lib/python2.6/httplib.py", line 391, in begin 2011-06-01_09:31:57.71639 version, status, reason = self._read_status() 2011-06-01_09:31:57.71642 File "/usr/lib/python2.6/httplib.py", line 349, in _read_status 2011-06-01_09:31:57.71645 line = self.fp.readline() 2011-06-01_09:31:57.71647 File "/usr/lib/python2.6/socket.py", line 427, in readline 2011-06-01_09:31:57.71650 data = recv(1) 2011-06-01_09:31:57.71652 timeout: timed out
btw, I have "longpoll.disable" : false in pushpool config.

Guys. I've got a problem.
Does anyone know of a way to limit the videocard usage to like 50% or so in guiminer? My 4870x2 just can't take the heat (seriously!). With the fan at 80-100%, I'm very quickly reaching temps of 90-95C when mining with even just one gpu. I'd love to run both but it would undoubtedly destroy my card.
Yes. I've cleaned out the video card. I do so every two or three months anyhow, and I don't see temps higher than 55C playing games, and not usually higher than 50C at idle.
Underclocking doesn't seem to help, and i've had limited succes with -f. Just messing around adding 0's to -f100, I can get it to drop to about 65mh/s per gpu, but it still makes my card sit around 80C. I have a thermaltake armor case, so airflow really isn't my problem (I runs games like eq2, ddo, and the like and never have a temp issue).
What can I do?
Thanks!

I've just started using this method of pooling a few hours ago and I was wondering: When do the first results typically appear on the "My account" page of mining.bitcoin.cz? It's been stuck at absolute 0 for a while now and I'm starting to wonder if I've done anything wrong, despite the black window displaying a steady 55000 khash/s for quite some time now.

use WORKSIZE = 128 or 64, which will hash less, which will reduce temp.

I followed the guide completely.
I am having a big problem. I followed everything that you have done but I can't get bitcoin.exe to open with -server. Every time, I get Warning: to use the '-server' option, you must set rpcpassword = <password> in the configuration file 'C:/Users/Nick/AppData/Roaming/Bitcoin/bitcoin.conf. If the file does not exist, create it with owner-readable-only file permissions" I have already made the bitcoin.conf file in C:\Users\Allen\AppData\Roaming\Bitcoin multiple times. This is what's inside it rpcuser=youruser rpcpassword=password
No matter what I do I can't start it. I've redeleted and remade the files several times over. I've restarted my computer. I've quadruple checked the directories and I'm 100% sure that the bitcoin.conf file is in the right spot. However, everytime I start bitcoin -server I get the above message saying I have not set that yet I have!!!Thank you.

Have you filled it in as username.workername or just as username?

Anyways, Now i've gotten this working with a mining pool at BTC Guild. Im getting around 500mhash/s with my stock 5970. Also, how do I quit the mining. Do I just close the command prompt, does it automatically save? What do I do? Thank you!

Ok so the GUI verson of this program is not detecting my GPU (Radeon HD 4870) I am pretty sure that my hardware does not support OpenCL. How can I get this settup on my rig and will it even utilize my GPU since it does not dupport OpenCL. Other important specs: Windows 7 64-bit, Intel Core i5, latest version of Python, latest version of ATI-SDK with opencl.
