[ANN] [QRK] Quark | Core 0.10 upgrade

[digitalindustry]

is there any server mining going on with QRK?  If so which pool is best to use?
EDIT: It's a linux server by the way.

All the pools are listed on the front page , linux should be fine , just complie, there are lots of miners , depending on your server you may solo not sure ?

I think OP should be updated - some pools are switched off and my pool is named: "Kryon's Pool"

Thanks I updated the pool list in the OP.

It may be a stupid questions but I didn't find anything related to mPown what is it exactly ?

MPow is momentum Proof of Work its what PTS or Protoshares is currently using , there was a bounty and gigawatt found a better implementation of it , he may want to usevthat for quark not as a test , but it would much more robust. 

See any PTS tenchinal topic .

Its the memory hard PTS work algorithm .

I'm not sure how this would work. Changing the PoW would invalidate all the miners, pools, etc. Not?

Besides botnets, I like that Quark is mineable by commodity CPUs. I've got a couple of scrypt GPU rigs which I use Quark cpu miner on. Using P2Pools, I've managed to put these processors to good use with modest returns. I like the Quark model for this reason, though I do agree that a minimum block reward would be desirable (txfees feel too much like taxes). PoS would also be nice, to reward people for holding Quark and building the network.

I do not like memory hard PTS work algorithm or XPM because it screws over the little guy. Furthermore, I am personally glad that I did not waste my precious time and (more importantly) my money in PTS after the Memorycoin debacle, as seems more and more like a scam.

Bam !

and you've twisted my rubber arm -

I agree on everything except that after a few years there should be a hard limit - i'll explain  and i think you will see soon why that will be -

i was missing the genius right in from of me and that is the Quark algo -

PoS - i see as too risky - definite 90 second blocks in the future but - ?

News coming , id rate it at medium to high excitement rate -

[digitalindustry]

I just want the Quark community to know this is not a "Pump and Dump"  - if you know me i don't "Pump and Dump".

I develop or try to in the conjunction with the Great Dev team that Quark has.

There is still an active community hard at work.

It's far from dead...

I couldn't get it to compile on Linux yesterday.
I tried:
apt-get install unzip -y
cd
wget http://stonefoz.myfastmail.com/cpuminer-quark2.zip
unzip cpuminer-quark2.zip
cd cpuminer-quark2
CFLAGS="-O3 -msse2" ./configure

but it wouldn't configure... I'm on Ubuntu 12,04 LTS 64...  feel free to PM me if you can help, I'll be sure to tip some QRK if I get it going and mine some coins!

[Xleek]

You mean, when you do the command "./configure" , it doesn't do anything ?
Your line with CFLAGS seems weird. maybe you should edit it rather than invoking it in a terminal ?
What are the errors ?

I know they are some problems with libcurl and the m4 file for exemple

okk i'll need to have a look at this - does that miner have source >?

but historically {said slowly} a "configure" shell is for making a makefile, which would imply you are compiling the miner -   

in which case you should be getting it from github .  < is this not available on github ?  if so be careful .


when you say "it wouldn't configure"  what are the errors ?

[NUFCrichard]

I can't find the source code for that miner. 
There is another here but  https://github.com/Neisklar/quarkcoin-cpuminer

I tried this as mentioned earlier in this thread:

apt-get install git libcurl-dev libjansson-dev
git clone https://github.com/Neisklar/quarkcoin-cpuminer
./autogen.sh   
./configure CFLAGS="-O3"
make
strip minerd

Without success.  As you can see, I am pretty rubbish in lunux, I am just looking for anyway to mine, I am not married to any one miner.

I'm married to a miner , it gets pretty DIRTY in bed !

ok let me do this and see what happens then i will help you .


also we keep saying it and over an over again -

can you please tell us what errors you are getting and at what stage -

but if you are getting the  

./configure: line 5958: syntax error near unexpected token ,'
./configure: line 5958:LIBCURL_CHECK_CONFIG(, 7.10.1, ,'

error -

- after you try to:

./configure CFLAGS="-O3"

- try :


apt-get install libcurl4-gnutls-dev

because that means you have not make a makefile - so tell us what errors you are getting .


** i can compile this and get minerd - (Ubuntu 12,04 LTS 64) or near enough.

[Xleek]

I had to compile it something like two days ago, and I also had a problem with libcurl when I ./configure, and I found a solution there:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4823.0

Sorry for necroposting, but there is solution. (I am using FreeBSD).

Code:

$ cd cpuminer
$ mkdir m4
$ cp /usr/local/share/doc/curl/libcurl/libcurl.m4 m4

Then add string "ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS = -I m4" to file Makefile.am and edit file autogen.sh - replace string "aclocal" with "aclocal -I m4".

That's all.

got it going Loving Quark!!

I request a mac wallet for Quark. Anyone know if one is being developed?
