OK this is weird- my solo instance of BFGminer used to show my solo pool http://127.0.0.1:8332 as getwork, I restarted my bitcoin-qt and BFG miner,now the pool shows as GBT- is this right?
also connected another rig to my solo pool and that shows as Gwork in BFGminer....fut the whuck?

and.. removing the argument coinbase-addr <mybitcoinaddress> changed it back to GWork in bfgminer... begs the question, is GBT better? and should I keep the coinbase-addr argument in my BFGMiner startup option?
or, is this just misreported and all I can do with daemon is Gwork no matter what BFGMiner thinks it is?

Yes I would think that's right since both Bitcoin-QT and BFG do GBT Solo.  That should be a good thing.

A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?

Ok put the addy back in and showing GBT on my solo pool.

I also have been comparing block times, and even with a backup pool BTCGuild (eleuthria ROX!!) my QT client appears to be approx. 2 minutes behind. I get new block detected on network timestamp ~2minutes past BTCguilds found blocks timestamps. Sometimes I get the backup pool relay message and then my solo pool says it caught up to new block, which is good.

Does this mean I am mining stales for those 2 minutes? Is that bad or normal?
