Why do some rigs prefer diablo or poclbm?

April 30, 2011, 02:50:20 AM

I noticed some Ubuntu ATI rigs/gpu combos will work well w/ m0mchil poclbm and refuse to work with Diablo miner an vice versa. What's up with that? Does anyone have any explanations?

It is a common myth that Bitcoin is ruled by a majority of miners. This is not true. Bitcoin miners "vote" on the ordering of transactions, but that's all they do. They can't vote to change the network rules.

It all depends on what the machine was in a past life.

Previous incarnations may have been SPARC machines or even DEC Alphas. Clearly, the SPARC machine would find tranquility in using java in it's current incarnation and reject poclbm.

Perhaps the machines were also previously Latin Christians and can't stand operating Diablo.
