What "version" are Tenebrix-addresses?

AddressVerson=127

Or 0x7f

Okay dudes, Gui-less daemon is good on all platforms (Win, Lin Ubuntu LTS, Lin CentOS, Lin Fedora specifically compiled and tested)

I guess that means that it's faucet time, then exchange time, then pool time.

Any pushpool gurus here? It needs tweaking due to "unusual" PoW...

So stupid question here, but how do you compile this? Today's project was to be getting a Ubuntu machine mining headless, but I didn't exactly get very far. :p

[phelix]

current difficulty and some more infos on tenebrix: http://bitcoinx.com/tenebrix/

hope I got it all right 


does not look so profitable to mine at the current price on https://btc-e.com/tbx_exchanger

Profitable compared to what? lol

[Bobnova]

Profitable compared to electrical usage is the only viable thing, really.
You don't have to shut down BTC/etc. mining for it, after all.

Stupid question here......

If I have i an I5 Quad Core, how many threads should I use?

Is it 1 thread per core?

[Bobnova]

One per core unless you're GPU mining, in which case you'll probably want to leave a core free to keep the GPUs fed.

... in the source directory type "make bitcoind"
Yeah name changing seems to be a major difficult thing for Lolcust

Also keep in mind that TBX can be mined effectively on regular everyday hardware, no special GPU requirements, which means that a lot of folks with free electricity just got the ability to mine. I for one would like a Java/JavaScript miner so that I can dedicate a core or two in the background while I'm at work.

I think intel still uses hyper threading, so you could do 8x threads.

[Bobnova]

Only on i7 CPUs.
i5 and lower have no HT.

Experimental pushpool branch for tenebrix: https://github.com/ArtForz/pushpool
rpc.target.bits set to 20 (1 share == ~1M hashes) seems to work pretty well locally.

[dishwara]

Pool needed ASAP.
more than 24 hours of mining & ZERO Tenebrix.

[worldinacoin]

I just lost my 24 coins when I did a reinstallation , took me a long time to mine.

[TiagoTiago]

You didn't backup your wallet?

Restore your wallet from your backup.  You make your backup very ofthen, don't you?

Thanks for the reminder

It's always a pleasure to be useful.
