DeepBit pool thread for newbies

[x86]

Update. I've started GPU miner and my balance raised.
Maybe balance updates only after some shares were found (for example, 4 or 5)?

What's happened with Statistics page?

Can I use FreeBSD?

I have put a computer on solo mode with windows XP now I just want to try something else. This is an older computer 64x processor, and 8600 or 8800 Nvidia AGP card.

Recomendations... No XP installs left.

What's happened with Statistics page?

We had a little displaying glitch caused by two blocks found in 0.03 seconds. It's already fixed.

I don't know if there are OpenCL-compatible drivers for FreeBSD. But you can try using Ubuntu of some other linux that is known to work.
Remember that 8600-8800 cards will give you only ~4-30 MH/s, that's really not much.

Balance updates do not depend on shares count. Sorry for missing your initial question. Do the problem still persist ?

Now I mine with GPU only. Maybe this bug doesn't depend on mining speed, but I never saw it again.

What AGP card could I look for that might give me some Mhash/s worth having?

I would just update computers but I dont have the cash atm.

I've been with btc guild for several months but will be switching over to try these guys out. The reviews I've read here have been very positive.

Just me or, the last 3-4 days Deepbit been shaving off the top? I mean every 2 days there seem to be 1-2 blocks that are solved in under a minute and transaction goes to a single account. I have a few of my workers set to worksize=64 and the rest are at 128. But in the past I've been able to get into every single 00h,00m block with 5000+ shares etc...


blocks in question:

the last two don't even look like solved blocks. I can take screenshots if need be. Just a brief estimate is I do on average 4-10 shares per minute. I wonder if it's faster if i should force all my gpu on 1 worker to get faster shares?

What do you mean by "don't even look like solved blocks"? How else can they be in the blockchain?

No, setting all miners to one worker account won't make any difference for the shares count. I recommend using different worker accounts for each GPU.

Try asking in mining or guiminer support threads. This doesn't looks like caused by the pool.

It's not an error.
It's normal condition for transactions that are not included in the blockchain yet.
You can check those transactions at http://bitcoincharts.com/bitcoin/
Example link: link (this link will stop working after that TX gets it's first confirmation).

Yes, #bitcoin-deepbit at freenode
