Currently only Windows binaries and Source Code are provided as we work through some build issues on Linux and MacOSX. Source will also be provided on github in a few hours. Keep an eye on the thread for updates.

-Fixed crash on exit bug
-Fixed some more user interface bugs dealing with sizes set by magic numbers instead of proper sizing
-Updated About box
-Changed some Mac compiler settings
-Updated irc rules to use more channels now that a few thousand users have joined the network
-Updated all docs and build instructions due to libpng support needing to be in wxwidgets on linux
-Changed build process. Now there is a builds folder which contains the makefiles. moved obj creation to a non src directory.
-Moved media out of src directory to keep it clean
-Changed default rpc port to 8555 so it doesn't conflict with some linux services

Still don't understand. I have downloaded phoenix miner... do I need to change the .exe parameters before launching or something

I'll post some articles on this on the site soon, I get asked this a lot. But basically you create an account (or use your SC address) as the details.

In GUIMIner you need to go to "other" as the pool, and make sure the port and address is correct as well.

Ok, so do i put "sobtc.digbtc.net" as the "Host"? I see no address option. When I start mining I get the following error:

AttributeError: 'HttpTransport' object has no attribute 'failure'

EDIT: Ok i think i got it, have to do File -> New Miner -> phenix.exe and then do this? Just says "Connecting..." then:

FATAL kernel error: Failed to apply BFI_INT patch to kernel! Is BFI_INT supported on this hardware?

First cool on the solidcoin updates, coinhunter.. keep them coming

second.. jack, you should be asking this in the guiminer forum or the digbtc forum.

anyways.. select other for site put sobtc.digbtc.net in the host box, make sure port is 8332.. put your worker user name in the username box and the pass in the pass.. make sure device is set to the thing that doesnt look like your cpu. click start mining

if still errors like that http transport.. i would ask in the guiminer forum.. this has not much to do with solidcoins.. once you can mine one coin you can mine them all.

I like what you're doing but shall not jump to solidcoin. Only reason is that its currency sign is very similar to dollar sign.

I have a linux binary built at http://www.wuala.com/jbw9/pub/Bitcoin/solidcoin/102b4/solidcoin-102b4-linux-i386.bz2/ for now.

I like the development of mexico but shall not jump to pesos. Only reason is that its currency sign looks the same as dollar sign.

Something has changed massively in the source tree.

The makefiles are no longer in the /src directroy. They are now in the /build directory.
But still it complains about trying to build from them...

Code:

bigfoot@ubuntu:~/solidcoin-102$ cd src
bigfoot@ubuntu:~/solidcoin-102/src$ make -f ../build/makefile.unix 
make: Warning: File `../build/makefile.unix' has modification time 5e+04 s in the future
make: *** No rule to make target `../obj/gui/util.o', needed by `solidcoin'.  Stop.
bigfoot@ubuntu:~/solidcoin-102/src$ cd ..


bigfoot@ubuntu:~/solidcoin-102$ cd build/
bigfoot@ubuntu:~/solidcoin-102/build$ make -f makefile.unix 
make: Warning: File `makefile.unix' has modification time 5e+04 s in the future
make: *** No rule to make target `../obj/gui/util.o', needed by `solidcoin'.  Stop.

Has anyone gotten this release to compile?

The network exploding IS a good thing... That means the miners are taking SolidCoin pretty seriously.

so far it seems to be holding up well and not exploded,  I for one hope it continues to hold up.

FML I just waited 50 minutes for a transaction to be confirmed.  Bitcoin sucks for transaction confirmations, at least at this solve rate.  Solidcoins (and soon Ixcoins) are the new hotness.
