I just ran my account for 2 days with no bitcoin address filled into my profile.  will i still receive coins for that time?

[distant]

Has anyone successfully built a remote miner on Debian Lenny?  I can't get one built and I would like to contribute my 8 core server.  Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
DiSTANT

of course, fill a wallet address and wait until script will trigger you

I set my threshold to 0.01 and my reward is 0.55 but I don't think its sending it to me. Maybe it doesn't work below 1?

Same here. My reward is over the threshold of 0.01 but nothing sent.

Everything is OK, this is just way how sending script works. I will try to explain:

Any specific amount of reward itself is not bound to block in any way. When block is found, reward for shares is added to user's account. So you see reward on profile, but block which you participated is not yet mature enough. So when sending script is triggered, he don't take care to blocks, but only rewards. As you see, two blocks matured before few hours and script really sent 100 BTC out. It just mix the sending order a little bit. Otherwise the threshold feature will not be possible.

This have only once consequence - in very rare case the block is rejected by network for some reason. As ArtForz tols me, it is 0.0something% of cases. So I have in short-term TODO to add rewards after at least few confirmations, not instantly.

I've built the CPU miner on Ubuntu. Any particular problems?

Also, look at the CPU miner thread http://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1925.0

This debian-packaged cpu-miner may be (i don't test) used with Slush's server: http://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2207.0

AFAIK there is newer version which have better performance. But did not tested, just saw some rummors on irc

I get this error from time to time: "invalid or stale", why?

I've participated in about the last 4 or 5 blocks and still haven't been paid anything. My reward is now 1.07571237 but you still haven't sent anything to my bitcoin address.

How often do you get those messages? Those are probably server restarts, so it should be really few times per day. I'm sorry for that. If it is more often, please tell me.

Btw I will work on application fail-over configuration today to avoid this. But it will require many restarts. So we will see how m0mchil fix his miner . For others using older version, please update, otherwise you will have to set up your workers again and again.

You are right, this is the bad effects of current rewarding. So I work on system upgrade right now with high priority. Don't worry, your reward is definitely not lost. New version of rewarding script will sent only rewards from already confirmed blocks, so no problems like your anymore.

[slush]

New rewards sent.

My today's goal is remake of sending rewards to be absolutely fair - will send rewards only for confirmed blocks.

If you have it automated, send it more often that once every 6 hours.  Where is the problem if you send it more often?

Also, do you really have to wait a day for the confirmation?  I think 10 new blocks should be more than enough. 

I also participated for 3 days or so but did not receive anything...

Hey slush, that's exactly what I get in my logs?

enky, what are you mining on?
overclocked GPU ?

[tryptamine]

No bitcoins are available until the generated block is matured. For example, I generated a block (solo) about 36 hours ago, and there are 18 blocks left for for it to mature.

[doublec]

Also, do you really have to wait a day for the confirmation?  I think 10 new blocks should be more than enough. 

He has no choice but to wait. The coins aren't available from the generated block until 120 more blocks have passed. This is enforced by the network and software. He can't send the coins out before this.

Ok, fair enough.

Problem we are discussing by PMs are different. Sometimes your gpu1 flooded server with incorrect hashes. Many attemps per second. This is different.
