My 900 kh/s isn't getting it anymore. We need a p2pool soon.

My 900 kh/s isn't getting it anymore. We need a p2pool soon.

After restarting a few times to make sure things weren't hung up, I'm getting a block on average every 30 minutes with ~850kh/s

[MarKusRomanus]

Not another alt-coin!
Whats next? ButtCoin?

Yessss

That's pretty good. I just keep on getting "New block detected on network" now.

Do other also get lots of rejected blocks? Is this normal? Once and then I get accepted also, but not that much.

--expiry 1 or -E 1 how to implement it on pooler cminer?

Balu man no idea  can you put output of u debug file?

If you are launching cpuminer from command-line or batch, just add that flag to the launch options so it would read:

Code:

minerd.exe --algo scrypt --url 127.0.0.1:port --userpass username:password -E 1

Maybe i'm daft, I think I set it up correctly and I'm getting

How does the coins transfer to my wallet? When I open up FeathercoinQT I'm still at balance 0

You haven't found any blocks yet. Coins will appear in your wallet under "Immature" once you see "ACCEPTED" on your miner output.

At he top of your miner screen you should see an "A:" and an "R:" the "A:" is the number of accpeted blocks since yo opened the miner. "R:" is your rejected blocks.

When your "A:" has a non-zero value, there will be coins in your wallet under immature. After 120 blocks are confirmed, the balance will move from immature to your final balance.

[Ilocans]

Your setup seems OK.

You did not mined any block yet.
You should have a message telling you it is accepeted or rejected.

minerd.exe --algo scrypt --url 127.0.0.1:port --userpass username:password -E 1 does not work. using linux


minerd.exe --url 127.0.0.1:port --userpass username:password works some blocks accepted however O coins lol

Also how come total block count is lower than like 5 hrs before? Someone reset entire chain? lol

Plus I got block accepted tons of time before in debug output and yet no coins yet appeared

ok I read via options

--scantime N
(-s N) Upper bound on time spent scanning current work,
        in seconds. (default: 5)

so I managed to set it to 1 however algo path --algo XXX
(-a XXX) Specify sha256 implementation:
        c               Linux kernel sha256, implemented in C (default)
        4way            tcatm's 4-way SSE2 implementation
        via             VIA padlock implementation
        cryptopp        Crypto++ C/C++ implementation

How to enable scrypt on it? I though it detects it by default since the speed is similar to litecoin  aka in khashes.

The difficulty has gone up quite a bit, I was getting new blocks every couple minutes last night. Now, it's taking 20-30 minutes to just SUBMIT a "share" (block). Remember this is solo mining, not pool mining.

My current session has been running for about 2 hours and this is what I have

gpu 0: ~460kh/s - Accepted: 3, Rejected: 3
gpu 1: ~353kh/s - Accepted: 4, Rejected: 1

So if you have decent kh/s, just be patient. give it a few hours and see what you get.

You can add:
cgminer.exe --scrypt to it, and that will enable scrypt

I am on linux.

Sorry, my mistake, cpuminer does not support the -E flag, I believe it only supports the --scantime flag

Try:

Code:

minerd.exe --algo scrypt --url 127.0.0.1:port --userpass username:password --scantime 6

As far as why your block count is lower, I am unsure as I have not experienced this problem.

I am unsure as to why your found blocks are not placing coins in your wallet (unless the blockchain is not fully downloaded which may be the case as indicated by your incorrect block count).

Restart your client with -rescan, let the blockchan download entirely and then try mining again....

After a reboot and 3 hours I have,

gpu 0: ~453kh/s - Accepted: 0, Rejected: 0

Lol

[MarKusRomanus]

can you post link for download?

It is the source code link on the first page.

Don't forget to change the trayicon in your next release!  it's still the litecoin icon

[alex_fun]

For intel cpus setup

is it as per below? I am not sure what CFLAGS meant to do?

./autogen.sh
CFLAGS="-O2 ./configure --enable-scrypt
make

[shiv]

you can basically forget CPU mining lol
