I got the windows wallet going on 2 pcs, but the Linux wallet will not build. Has anyone been able to compile it? How did you get it to make? Every time I run make it gives an error. QApplications not found. I've installed all the dependencies plus some other qt dependencies. WTF?
I could not get the git source to compile; even after I re-positioned several header (.h) files in the correct places. I was finally stymied by messages that the several boost libraries (and/or their .h files) were not present, even though they are.
The maxcoin-qt binary which was released at 10:56 AM via the twitter feed at
https://github.com/Max-Coin/clientsworked for about an hour, I was solo-mining at about 800 kH/s with it. But then it crashed, and would not start again, with the error message from the command line saying that...um, I forget exactly, it was about an unintelligible symbol ZN8CryptoPP4SHA37RestartEv --which looks like (my wild guess) it might be indicating a wrong version of libcryptopp.so.
WHY didn't the devs release a STATIC-COMPILED Linux version of maxcoin-qt??? They must be bigoted in favor of their particular flavor which I don't know what it is --well, obviously some form of Debian or Ubuntu since they are using apt-get.
The way I found, to create the wallet in Linux, is, run the maxcoind binary. This quits, saying you need the configuration file, but it does create, before it crashes, the ~/.maxcoin hidden subdirectory. Into this subdirectory you place the maxcoin.conf which was released on the twitter feed at
https://github.com/Max-Coin/clients/blob/master/example-maxcoin.confand then restart maxcoind and it will start mining. More nodes were added during the day, on the twitter feed, to add to your maxcoin.conf file.
Then, after 1gh fixed their cpuminer, I downloaded it, ./configure'd and make'd it, and ran it according to the command line
./minerd -a keccak -o stratum+tcp://maxpool.1gh.com:17333 -u mSYhHxmENq65PTAZcVc3HhFsMNbmDopoHi -p x
I found my wallet address by starting maxcoin-qt and, before it crashed, clicked the receive button and quickly did the ol' highlight + ctrl-C on the receive address. Pasted it into a text editor (Geany) and made the above command line out of it, then highlight-and-middle-click'ed it into a terminal window. You will of course use your own receive address, not mine.
In an hour and twenty minutes of mining on the 1gh pool, I've had 5 shares accepted from my 3.0GHz Phenom IIx4 965 and 25 shares accepted from my 3.4GHz i3570k.
