There seem to be no password recovery mechanism.
I seem to have set myself a password that I can't remember.

Good point, I'll add this.

All users of m0mchil's miner, please update to his newest version.

I really like that I can see how much of a reward I got per block on the Statistics page.  Good work Slush, keep it up!  All my 2% are belong to you, when you finally implement that.

Sorry for the double post.

After implementing jgarzik's CPU miner and m0mchil's GPU miner, and getting them both to communicate with Slush's pool, my account page is reporting MUCH lower hash rates than what the miners themselves are reporting.

CPU, -a 4way -t 4, is getting 3M per each of 4 cores = 12M/s (reported on the site as 1M/s), and
GPU is getting usually around 53M/s (reported on the site as ~37M/s to ~40M/s).

Huh?

(Just noticed something- when m0mchil's GPU miner gets minimized in win7, my GPU usage levels off to a much lower percentage. Will leave up from now on.)

The site is computing mhash/s from the number of shares found in the current round, so it has a pretty wide margin of error.

One other suggestion from me, and then I'll shut up...  Think you could implement a way to show the Last Share At date and time to the user's local time, instead of the server's?  See, my last share that went in was at 12:24pm, but on the site it shows 6:24pm (18:24).  Just a suggestion.

Quick question, I was wondering what ratio of invalid or stale to accepted is normal? The past couple days I've been getting 100% accepted, woke up this morning to probably 20%.

I have a GPU miner with no overclocking. No other changes I can think of.

Thanks!

You are using m0mchil's, right? Please upgrade to latest version, it fix this issue.

[mmain708]

Yup, worked like a charm! Thanks Slush.

are having troubles? my gpu and cpu are share constantly and nothing happens, no have loans :S

Only slush can implement it, but maybe I can be helpful anyway...

I would do it in JavaScript on the client's side. This avoids having to know the user's time zone on the server.

I assume dates in the server are stored as GMT.

So to generate a local time, make the server generate this HTML code:

Code:

<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">document.write(new Date(Date.UTC(2011, 1, 6, 18, 24, 0)).toLocaleString())</script>

Have your server generate the "real" numbers above.

If the server stores times as milliseconds-since-1970 in GMT, you can do it even easier:

Code:

<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">document.write(new Date(1297016640000).toLocaleString())</script>

I actually came here to ask about this. I didn't want to make assumptions.

Yes, all data on site are in UTC. Thanks to Essjay, I'll add some javascript to enable local times soon.

Interesting. What's your command line? Pool is OK, I don't know why you have troubles...

Slush's server uses XHTML so document.write won't work. See here:

Writing to a placeholder node would, though.

[slush]

Thanks for your advices. I think I can handle this 'problem' :-).

[fabianhjr]

slush I am getting 70+% of hashes as invalid or stale. Could you check into it?

[fabianhjr]

Yes I am, thanks for the heads up!

[gigitrix]

Just to let you know I really appreciate this kind of effort. I'm generating microcents on an old laptop (that I only have on when using) but it's far better than solving blocks every 10 years  Your service lets us mess with bitcoins without relying on fancy-pants GPU farms!

I've put a miner on here to solve the "something for nothing" problem: laptop's on, might as well use it eh!

[fonzie77]

i just activated my account but the website is telling me user/pass credentials don't match. can you perhaps send me a password reset or reminder?

i think this is weird as i just registered. i usually remember my passwords at least for a few minutes...
