Now what is ⊅?

^ that's what I get from alt+2285, using ctrl+shift did nothing at all.

hey guys. having a little difficulty getting setup here. my miner (ufasoft, through guiminer) isn't able to complete a handshake with a locally running p2pool node. the handshake is timing out. any thoughts?

Smoovious thinks "details?"

-- Smoov

running latest p2pool software, which is up and running problem free. attempt to connect to http:127.0.0.1:9332 with the proper name and password results in "handshake timed out, disconnecting from 127.0.0.1:51084"

are you typing in the url exactly like that? cuz, in GUIminer, you should have a seperate field for the host and the port. "127.0.0.1" or "localhost" goes into the host field, and 9332 into the port field

and... why ufasoft?

-- Smoov

yea, in gui i'm using http://127.0.0.1 and the seperate feild for the port. and ufasoft becuase i can't manage to get poclbm to run with anything but deepbit. if i try another pool (p2pool or p2pmining.com) it throws "at least one server is required". and i seem to get near identical mhash, so i figured "ah, screw it."

What happened to using ฿ ??

So, pool is still showing >30% stales. Is that a bug because of the old versions mining on a "fork" or is something else going on?

If I understood the problem correctly, anyone with the faulty build will *only* produce stales (because of the protocol switch) - so ~30% stales and ~30% faulty versions seems to work out...

That sucks for the people who don't read the board every day or worse.

Well, there's a certain mailing list for those...

That is already taken by the Thai baht. Wouldn't want to be confused with a Fiat currency. This one is unique and not used for any currency and is a mathematical symbol to boot.

um, yeah, don't include "http://"... only the host name or IP by itself there

and that might be part of why poclbm is failing, too, if GUIminer is adding another http:// onto the hostname which already has one.

nope. tried that just now. (also "localhost") still the same message.

None of these are a currency either ... though again no reason to use them ...

well, $ gets re-used too, so, they can get over it.

hmm. interesting. removing the http:// corrected the poclbm issue, (yay!) but for p2pool poclbm says "Problems communicating with bitcoin RPC 1 2"

EDIT: although, sincei can just connect to p2pmining.com, i suppose, for now, it's a non issue. thanks for the help smoov!

stopped and restarted the miner?

oh... and, what version guiminer?

-- Smoov

[arklan]

guiminer v2012-02-19.

stop and started several times, yea. but like i siad - i'm giving up and sticking with p2pmining.com, for now. i'll sort this out when i get an fpga.

GUIminer, for me at least, doesn't seem to like to remember the port I want it on in between runs, putting it back to 8332 when I run it again. Did it do that this time?

Should be 9332

I was close. It was a port issue, just didn't involve a firewall.
