1: Open Terminal or SSH into your Linux machine.

2: Run "apt-get update"

3: Run "apt-get install git autoconf automake libtool pkg-config libcurl4-gnutls-dev libjansson-dev uthash-dev libncurses5-dev"

4: Run "git clone git://github.com/luke-jr/bfgminer.git"

5: Enter the bfgminer directory

6: Run "./autogen.sh"

7: Run "./configure" (if you do not want to use GPUs on the machine, add --disable-opencl)

8: Run "make"

9: After make completes, you can run bfgminer directly (may require sudo), or create a shell script that includes your arguments.

The only thing that i see i maybe missing is libudev-dev

Whats the difference in libidev-dev and libudev-dev?

i wrote a typo. i mean libudev-dev

... 50 of thies little things are becoming more of a hassle. How do ya do it? 

50 x .335 = only 16.75 GH/s

Yeah not much hashing power there ... for all the effort to set them up ...

dont waste time and space on crap hubs

i am selling Rosewills, 0.29BTC each

Getwork Server Reminder

As stated in the past, the getwork protocol is on life support (at best) for BTC Guild, and in approximately 2 weeks it will be shut down completely.  I have already extended this beyond my original posts (stating it would close when it was less than 2% of the pool).  Getwork will be permanently shut down for BTC Guild in early October of this year.

"two weeks" oooooh! the BFL school of scheduling! *chuckle*

What would the gatework server be used for?

What would the gatework server be used for?

People who refuse to update software for more than a year "because it still works", people who are using ASICMINER blades and are too lazy to setup a stratum proxy or compile newer bfgminer builds which support them, and botnets that are small enough to not be autobanned/easily spotted during manual inspection.

There's still approximately 4-6 TH/s using getwork on BTC Guild, so it's always hard to just toss out that hash rate.  But right now the only reason it still exists is I stupidly prepaid that server for 3 months last time I renewed, so I want to get the most out of it while it's still there.

[demonmaestro]

okay that makes since.

Im still having issues with ubuntu server. It sees the erupters via

ls /dev/*USB*

however when i run

./bfgminer -o stratum+tcp://stratum.btcguild.com:3333 -u myusername_1 -p 123 -S all --icarus-options 115200:1:1 --icarus-timing 3.0=100

it will not see the devices. Any idea.

I mine at BTCGuild and another pool but can't figure out where I would get more ROI.

I love BTCGuild interface but if payout emails were sent it would be nicer.

BTCGuild sends out a *lot* of emails as is due to Idle Miner alerts and Confirmation codes, which have made me fight to get the mail server stopped from being marked as a spammer on multiple occasions.  BTC Guild sends 100-250 payouts per hour, and adding that to our outgoing email would basically guarantee most major mail providers would start marking everything as spam, or even worse, start blocking it from even being forwarded to their servers.

speaking of the "Idle Miner alerts" It dont work for me and i have put my email in.

Are you sure the worker has hit your idle time threshold?  Check your spam folder otherwise, because they absolutely work.


EDIT:  They also won't trigger on hidden workers.

[eleuthria]

Small site update:  The worker speeds on the dashboard now update on a 1-minute interval again, which will help produce faster speed estimates when turning a miner online, and more quickly adjust to a proper estimate.

Since the network has changed quite a lot over the last few months, the new system is setup to use 1 hour of share submissions to generate the speed estimate, but that 1-hour window will be reset if it finds a 5-minute gap in share submissions.  I've also set it up so if you decide to reset your share counters, it will also reset the speed estimate, which can be very useful when troubleshooting hardware.

Did BTC Guild just jump 200 TH/s?

[-Redacted-]

Geeez - it does look that way.  If the entire network is 981 Th/s, then  BTCGuild just went to well over 50% - closer to 2/3rds ...  Something is busted somewhere....

[eleuthria]

No.  The previous update screwed up how the pool speed estimate on the website is calculated.  Working on getting it resolved.

[dlasher]

Can't make the top 25 any more with the minimum being 3.2 TH...  Geeeez..

[-Redacted-]

Looks like the pool speed stats are back to relatively normal again....

True that could be a big strain too. Maybe make it a selectable option? Maybe add it as an option silently and default setting for new users should be unchecked.

Either way, your pool is still pretty darn amazing and very steady.

Of course the pool is steady, they've got 40% of the hashrate
