There's no APPDATA environment variable defined as there would be in normal Windows. Guiminer uses that variable to find a folder to store its settings. You should set it manually to be any location where you don't mind having an .ini file kept. Even the GUIMiner folder itself should work...

You don't have drivers and/or OpenCL installed correctly.

Is there a way to increase the queue depth for fetching shares/work?

IE: Every few seconds the client reads "Connection Problems" then it goes away, and a new "Accepted" unit comes in. It seems its just because the internet is slow to respond (slow cable+wireless adapter for this machine)

Is there a fix to make sure the GPU stays busy?

There are some features i'd like to request:

When i've decided to switch to a different server, can you please make it so the shares from the other server get reset? I mean i connect to another server and the guiminer still counts the shares from the other server.
And can you please add the new pools that appeared?

thanks, a simple set appdata=wharever fixed it.

Funny thing is, it works, still gives an error about logo.ico, with is on the guiminer folder, but it works, but for some reason, it only works once, if i close guimminer and try to open it again, it gives another error, its not important.

I have it working on Linux, but it's not packaged in any nice way and I'm not sure if it'll be easy enough for you to get it going.

If you'd like to be a guinea pig and try to get it working for you, you can grab the source code from the GitHub page and try to run that. I assume you're running an ATI graphics card using OpenCL, so you'll need to install PyOpenCL to get the source to work. I can help you with problems as they arise.

It would be nice if there was an option to only mine a certain percentage of the time that the program is running. After about 2 days of constant mining my GPU starts to experience errors, but a brief cooling down period every once in a while keeps it going without an issue.

Not good. Are you overclocking the GPU? What temps are you experiencing?

Sure, this will be an easy change.

And can you please add the new pools that appeared?

Which pools specifically do you want to see? And do they work already with the miner if you pick "Other" as a server and enter their host URL?

If you like, try editing your servers.ini file in your GUIMiner main directory and add a new entry for the server you want.

Maybe add one tab with information, like current price on mtgox, average blocks/h, difficulty, total network speed. Would be much easier to have this in one place, not to refresh browser every time. Also some kind of pool switching script would be excellent, if there are more then lets say 10 connection problems in last X minutes.

@Kiv

Is it possible that you add "failsafe" in Guiminer?

For example in deepbit, if main server goes down then miner automatically starts using j2.deepbit and so on?

Nope, XFX 4870 512MB running at stock, not even an XXX edition or anything. Temp sits at 71C under 24/7 usage. Replacement 6870 is on the way, but it would be nice to pass this on to another computer and keep mining with it. Never artifacts in games or anything, just have the miner complaining every two days or so about bad data.

e: This is getting annoying, now the GPU starts erroring and loses OpenCL support according to GPUz. Disappears from the list in the miners, but still plays games and benchmarks fine. It takes a Driver Sweeper run and reinstallation of the drivers/SDK to get it working again.

And one which would be really promissing:

If graphic card fails, reboot PC and start mining again.

-v -w56 did the best for me on one machine
-v -w128 did better on another, can't explain why.

Worst performance was with no -v, even with different -w's

You're just going to have to screw around and find the best setup for you i think.

I'm having some issues. I was mining with a 560 Ti using the CUDA miner. I added a ATI 5750 and it wouldn't show. I can't get the miner to show the 5750. Any ideas?

Would you mind sharing what flags you're using (if any)?
also, what do you do about heat?
I have a GTX 560 Ti and am running it at -w 18 :\ (62M/hashes/s)
