[ANN] Litecoin - a lite version of Bitcoin. Launched!

[DeaDTerra]

Can someone help me setup a litecoin miner that works in windows and that can connect to a pool? having trouble finding a easy guide to follow

You can try my application, it comes with a miner and GUI, so you only need to extract the files and run the ScryptMiner.exe to get started :
http://liteco.in/threads/scryptminer-litecoin-mining-gui.31/

Okay I have downloaded it and extracted it, but when I run it the program says
"[13:26:50] - Miner started. It usually takes a minute until the program starts reporting information.
[13:26:50] - Miner killed"
have I managed to do something wrong?

Did you join a pool and input the necessary settings such as your worker username and password?

yes I used the setup from litecoinpool.org
URL:   http://litecoinpool.org:9332/
Username:   your_username.1
Password:   1

But ofc changed my user name instead of the your_username

I have done that and still get the same error

I am not sure what is wrong but the p2pool seems very wierd.

Tried it for 2 days and payments are extremly low this far like 1/20 of what I was getting at simplecoin.us

I have no idea how mining actually works so I couln't tell what is wrong with it. I am getting paid from the p2pool but very little.
The big difference I am seeing is that is like just one line with 1 hash between longpoll new blocks instead of multiple readouts with thousand of hashes....

Mining under windows 7 with 1 tread here should be about 2.9khash. I have been running 1 tread on simplecoin and one on p2ppool on different cores for comparison.

Here is what it looks like:

DeaDTerra,
I had the same problem when I tried out the GUI, I managed to solve it by adding pthreadGC2.dll to the program's directory. Find it here:
http://www.dll-files.com/dllindex/dll-files.shtml?pthreadgc2
Hope this helps!

Thank you very much It seemed to have solved the problem, I am now getting around 8 khash/s. Is there anything else I can do to increase my speed?

Try substituting the default minerd.exe with the following:
http://content.wuala.com/contents/jbw9/pub/Bitcoin/Tenebrix/miner/win/minerd-amdfam10-sse4a.exe?dl=1
You should be able to get about 2.4 kH/s per thread on a 2600K.

In order to increase your speed replace pthreadGC2.dll with this one:

http://content.wuala.com/contents/jbw9/pub/Bitcoin/Tenebrix/miner/win/pthreadGC2.dll

And replace minerd with this file:

http://content.wuala.com/contents/jbw9/pub/Bitcoin/Tenebrix/miner/win/minerd-corei7-avx.exe?dl=1

(rename it to minerd.exe)

Nothing wrong with p2pool - it is normal behavior

Being inefficent? I only tried it for 2 days so it could be variance. But there are almost no hashes being done mining in it from the miner readout and the estimated pay if block is found that the pool window shows has never been showing more then a couple of hours of actuall payments from another pool...

People in here have been so nice, so I am just gone ask for help with another thing I have been thinking about. I have a old computer standing around, the reason why I don't use it is because it has no harddrive the on in it broke and so far I haven't bothered replacing it. Is there any program I can use to run litecoins from a usb stick? and if so anyone feel like they can help me set it up? thanks

Use something like a Ubuntu or Debian "live USB" and compile the miner following the instructions in my post on the Litecoin forums: http://liteco.in/threads/compiling-minerd-on-debian-ubuntu.15/

I recommend Ubuntu bacause it is easier to use: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu/download

And here is step by step instruction for miner:

0.Start Ubuntu and click Try Ubuntu (http://www.ubuntu.com/sites/www.ubuntu.com/files/active/try-intsall.jpg)
1.Open terminal
2.Type: sudo su
3.Type: apt-get install gcc libcurl4-nss-dev automake autoconf git make
4.Type: y if asked
5.Type: git clone git://github.com/Lolcust/Tenebrix-miner.git
6.Type: cd Tenebrix-miner/
7.Type: ./autogen.sh
8.Type: CFLAGS="-march=native -O3 -Wall -msse2 -msse3 -msse4 -msse4.1 -msse4.2" ./configure
9.Type: make
10.Type: ./minerd --algo scrypt --url http://lc.ozco.in:9332 --user camopejb.1 --pass 1234 -r -1 -s 3

After each command press Enter  
If you don't want to type you can do Copy/Paste in terminal with right click

I'm glad I can help  

Oh yes, it depends on your CPU, but if step 10 fails:

8.Type: CFLAGS="-march=native -O3 -Wall -msse2 -msse3 -msse4 -msse4.1 " ./configure
9.Type: make clean
9.1.Type: make

when try step 10 again
if it fails again try removing -msse4.1 etc... eventually it will work ;-)

I'd like to take this opportunity to introduce many of you to the relaunched version of my block explorer: http://explorer.liteco.in/.

Thanks to everyone who helped me get set up (I'll get around to creating a proper about/thanks page, I promise). There is also an advertisement spot available, take a look at ?topic=51841 for more information.

hello,
could someone this 283-live-solidcoin24-and-btc-e-data-in-sierrachart software for e-btc ltc / ltc btc / usd modify?
cu

Here ya go: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=XRSUMTBF
let me know if it has problems... but I think its working correct  

hmm syntax error ... can you make the exe plz  
cu

I cannot compile that code right now - sorry

If you're on Win you need first to install Python 2.7:
http://www.python.org/ftp/python/2.7.2/python-2.7.2.msi

Then start cmd and type:
PATH C:\Python27;%PATH%

To start script you type:
Python C:\src\solidchartfeed.py -s btceBTC -a 10
or
Python C:\src\solidchartfeed.py -s btceUSD -a 10

wow ... it works without problems. Thank you.
