not bad, getting about 5mhashs with my intel i-core 3 330m (2 core 4 threads)

good work!

0Mhash/s problem with BTC Guild using

bitcoin-miner -g no -a 5 -o http://btcguild.com:8332 -u XXXX_XXXX -p XXXXXXXX

tried it with a trailing / tried changing the -a to various numbers from 4 to the default 15, still no luck. Any advice?

[cablepair]

be mindful of proper cooling on amd chips, I tested on quad core 2.5 ghz with one of those stock heat sinks and fans, core temps were hitting high 70's celcius....

intel chips mine much cooler with it

[d0ct0r]

The more instances of bitcoin-miner I run the more effective I seem to mine...
Any explenations for that?

just updated, i lost 4mhash/s from 14 to 10 on pure CPU

Funny Yes, I did exactly what you did (except I'm using gcc-4.6), and ran into 0 MHash/sec as I sad

The bug fixed, please redownload sources.

Thank you very much! I increased my Mhash/s 3 times compared to jgarzik miner!

Unfortunately my blocks seems not being accepted by deepbit.net

i5 quad cpu

with bitcoin client I was getting 5-6MHash/s
with your miner i'm getting solid 14MHashes
very nice speed improvement!

-g flag is not working with my GTS250, no biggie, just letting you know

Confirmed ... 50%+ gain on my test Intel M 1.86 processor .. ubuntu Nauthy..... but no accepted share at all .. mining at http://mining.bitcoin.cz

[walidzohair]

Any one to confirm successful CPU mining with ufasoft ?

And any help about the "not accepted share" problem ?

Thank you for bug report!
FIXED, please redownload source code.
Reason: printf("%I64X", ...)  don't work in GCC (it is VC extension), should be  printf("%llX", ...).

[shivansps]

i have to admit... under winpe enviroment your miner is the only one that works out of box...

Thank you very much! Now it accepts my work. If I mine a lot of bitcoins (which is highly unlikeley ;>) I promise to send you some.

confirmed .. working now on ubuntu natty (naughty) FINALLY and it is hashing too!

Iw ill confirm about teh performance gain later and if it actually hash out some milicoins

I still get 0MHash/sec and 0% cpu usage, what am i doing wrong?

Had the same problem only to find out that I saved the miner's name wrong: Names are case sensitive. So check if you've spelled your data correctly when running bitcoin-miner.exe. (I'm new to bitcoin and mining, so this is my only idea about what could have went wrong. I still hope it helps...)

Thanks for the reply
I had mostly done what walidzohair did already, but repeated the steps just to be safe, at that point we both had the same/similar problem.
i'm using the latest version
not sure what more could go into this

Well test for the 0MHash/sec on ubuntu naughty and the recent source (today) and reply

[slothbag]

Any chance of getting the hash rate output to the stdout instead of stderr so "guiminer" can display hash rates?

Thanks

does adding "1>&2" at the end of the command work for you? although i don't know guiminer, so just taking a shot in the dark

I'll try the recent source, but if the solution is 11.04, i don't want to be right, i'll just end my trials here.

[shivansps]

you have the same idea, i also wondering how to export the hash rate to a file.

just do this

bitcoin-miner.exe -v -a 5 -o wharever -u wharever -p -t  -g no 1>all.log 2>&1

parsing it its hard, because of the unknown character at the begining of the mhash reading messing the things up, but i got a code up, it may fails to read the last value sometimes when the reading got cut, but when it fails it will just use the last known value.


im coding it for my project

[slothbag]

I tried to compile the source for bitcoin-miner on windows with no luck. Tried MinGW, VS2011, and installing the Ufasoft LISP package with VS2011.

Thanks guys, i'll try see if guiminer works with output redirection.
