There has been a bit of an influx huh? Looks like our payout per share is going down. :p

Bitcoin mining is now a specialized and very risky industry, just like gold mining. Amateur miners are unlikely to make much money, and may even lose money. Bitcoin is much more than just mining, though!

You mean per block. Payout per share only changes due to difficulty. |

Looks like I ordered my 6950's just in time! Should put me back up in the 1% region of hashing power in the pool...lol and facepalm. And I should be able to pull an extra 60 Mhash/s out of the A8-3850 APU I am putting in the rig, so ideally, I should be able to add 860 Mhash/s to my current ~800 Mhash/s

Streaks of bad luck are often followed by streaks of good luck. Everything tends to average out.

EDIT: Not sure what was wrong, but I got it working with DiabloMiner.I'm a total noob miner, as I've never used anything but the BitMinter client. Hence, I'm way more familiar with everybody in the BitMinter thread, but let me know if it's inappropriate for me to post this here vs the mining support thread. I found a computer at work with a GeForce 8800GT. The computer is logged off about 90% of the time, so I want to setup some startup/logon/logoff scripts to mine with it when it's not in use. Before starting all this, I tested with the BitMinter client and it gave me about 19.5 MH/s. One poster claims that the 8800GT does about 20 MH/s using Phoenix and 24 MH/s using puddinpop's RPC CUDA miner. Not real impressive, but I'll take free hashes. :-) I spent about an hour and a half trying to make the RPC miner work, but here's what I'm getting on ports 8332 and 80. Command: rpcminer-cuda.exe -url=http://mint.bitminter.com:8332/ -user=Username.Worker -password=Password Result: Could not retrieve work from RPC server.
CURL return value = 22
No blocks are being hashed right now. This can happen if the application is still starting up, you supplied incorrect parameters, or there is a communications error connecting to the RPC server. I'd be happy to just use Phoenix, but I also spent about an hour trying to make that work, without success. Here's what I get when I try to use ports 8332 or 80. Command: phoenix -u http://Username.Worker:Password@mint.bitminter.com:8332/ -k poclbm DEVICE=0 AGGRESSION=4 Result: [11/02/2012 17:03:42] Phoenix v1.7.5 starting...

[0 Khash/sec] [0 Accepted] [0 Rejected] [RPC] I also tried Phatk and Phatk2, but I couldn't find a way to disable BFI_INT. Here's what I get with those kernels: FATAL kernel error: Failed to apply BFI_INT patch to kernel! Is BFI_INT supported on this hardware? Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks! WP

Good thought, but I'm the IT Manager and configured everything. Still, I double-checked and nothing's being blocked. Have you tried port 80 instead of 8332?
Yup, same results either way. Thanks, WP |

I switched to v1.2.2 of the back end a moment ago. What's new: - Faster reaction to block changes (detect blocks from other pools faster + initiate long poll response faster)
- Use X-Reject-Reason to tell the miner why its proof of work was rejected. Support for this coming in the next release of the BitMinter client which will log the messages. Support by other miners is listed here: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Getwork_support
- Improved logging. There is a bug causing the back end to freeze up for 2-3 seconds. Seems to happen about once per day. Hopefully this will help track it down.
