Burnsides mining pool HELP

[BG1100]

Hi chaps I just have a quick question, I've dowloaded and installed the miner as per the instructions and I have made an account at http://ltc.kattare.com/ but even though the miner is working and apparently logged in none of my stats are showing up on the website. I would be very grateful if someone could tell me whats going on. Thanks.

You have signed up and made an account, named your workers, set passwords? Don't forget the port#.

Thanks for the reply. Yes, I double checked just to make sure, the miner has all the correct details in the cfg.json file and is happily chewing threw blocks. Just not shure whats going on.

What miner are you using?

[BG1100]

I'm using cpuminer version 2.2.2 and the lite coin client version v0.6.3c-beta. Its all the stuff that is on the mining pools website and seems to be working apart from not showing up on my stats on the site.

You can log into your account? With CPU mining, it will take some time to amount to anything substantial. Also be aware of the update times.

Yeah I am logged in now I have also logged in and out a couple of times, yeah cpu mining does seem a bit slow, I think I will try again tomorrow and if it hasnt changed or sorted itself out I will delete and reinstall my software. do you think that might help?

CPU isn't going to get you much, in fact, it may cause you more consternation than anything. What hash rate are you getting?

[BG1100]

I'm getting an average of 20 Khash/s on a core i7 920 is that ok or do you think i would be better off getting a gpu cos all i have at the moment is a ati 4600 series a nd thats pretty slow too.

Definitely GPU. Look for 5770's, 58xx, 6770, 68xx, 69xx.

Ok i'll have a look at one of those, as for the mining pool what do you think I should do, maybe knock it on the head until I get some faster gear?

I wouldn't waste CPU cycles but that's me.

I think all I'm doing is just heating up the room anyway 

Well thanks for your help my friend, all the best.

Hi All

hope you can help, Ive recently joined Burnsides mining pool and have 6 PCs and 1 Samsung galaxy all with the litecoin wallet setup to mine, Ive created a worker ID for each machine and they all seem to connect OK and start mining without errors, but when I go into my account on the website it shows only 1 or 2 workers active and I keep getting emails saying dead worker for all the others. Any ideas?


Thanks
