Yeah exactly I thought like BitcoinFX. slimminer works because the pool accepted my shares, but the daemon never accepts any share from slimminer.

I can confirm, that the Slimminer finds valid blocks when solo mining. I found 4 so far on my desktop-PC (with ~1.6KH) and even one with an ARM version of slimminer (0.22kh).
Today I found 2 Blocks with slimminer on the desktop PC, the seconds block around 5h after the first one. I think it's all about luck.

just make sure it's really using dcrypt (I had one instance mining with scrypt by accident, because I also had an old version of minerd in /usr/bin -.-)

Sliminer on windows and/or linux ? or mac ?

ltcnim has Windows and he compiles slimminer from source himself like us. I think the reason lies in the daemon/wallet. Or the worst case, in the different between Linux and Windows. But I never heard of such case.  
ltcnim where did you get the wallet ? Did you compile yourself or get the pre-compiled binary?

Btw ltcnim, we are not stupid like mistaking the hashing algo and going complaining about not working here . Of course we make sure that we didn't do anything wrong on our side.

I've seen this too, between two Linux machines, one running the daemon and one running slimminer. Looking at the output of "netstat -a", each machine ends up with a bunch of connections to the other machine in the TIME_WAIT state. So I wonder if something's wrong with the RPC listener.

The tricky part is that neither side shows an error message, and slimminer looks like it's mining, but of course there's no traffic going over those TIME_WAIT connections.

Exactly what I'm thinking, but I don't have time to look at the source code and neither have the skill to fix it. I reported about it 2,3 days ago but nobody cares. Nice that someone notices that too.
Thanks for your details information.

i've built the miner under windows, ARM linux, ubuntu 14.04 and even CentOS5.5. The blocks I found were under Windows, and one under cubian (debian version for cubieboard). But I just saw, that you use slimcoind, while I was mining at slimcoin-qt (located on a windows machine).

I had to build the Mac version against Boost 1.49. Maybe the same is true for Linux.

What does this mean, from debug.log

6 days have passed since launch – as there's no block explorers and the like yet, here's some basic graphs:
(if you want to ask anything about a specific graph, please only quote that graph (or refer to it by title), as these posts are relatively big)

Explanation of graphs: topic=613213.msg7044755#msg7044755

The graphs might look a little different - had to switch to OpenOffice as LibreOffice finally decided to choke and crash repeatedly (good to know, though at work we don't quite use this number of data points).

The Blocks of Shame:
Block 5872 : Our old buddy with the time off by 2 hours (also the cause for the weird downward spikes in the estimated hash rate.. along with OOo switch)
Blocks 5500, 5607, 5612 and 5627 : Time off by ~10 minutes.  Bros, do you even NTP?

Could it be something external? I mean, I have installed some other things that I use to compile videogames I create.

Well, next log file to try: /slimminer/config.log

Make sure that you have compiled from the latest commit, or you will get low difficulty rejects.
Shares from the temp pool are carried over, the stats are not displayed until you start mining however.
Payments are automatically processed every minute, it may take a long time to receive block reward because it needs a high number of confirmations.

I just need to burn a coin,  wait for it?

[slimcoin]

I just need to burn a coin,  wait for it?

To burn, use the burn coins tab on the qt and enter the amount. From then on, wait until they are confirmed and you are mining. Keep the wallet on, if it is off, you are not burn mining.

Are the static executables for linux already available?

[skottiejay]

Anyone have a binary for win7 or windows? I'd really like to give this a try. I'd be forever grateful and I don't have the space to get all that cygwin business.

Inside the ZIP are the executable and the dependencies.  It was originally built for Core i7 with AVX2 extensions, but I think none of the code actually gets optimized for that.. at least a build for Core 2 Duo ended up with the same binary.  Might have missed something though - parallel cygwin installations is a PITA.  It will, however, probably fail on 32bit systems.

There's also a batch file - it only asks you for two things: 1. your Slimcoin address (basically where the pool's payouts should go), and 2. the number of threads to use (considering you may have older hardware, you might want to try limiting CPU use that way).  If unsure, just use the number of cores your CPU has, and it should be all good.

There are other things that you can tweak with the minerd parameters, but this should be good to get you started.  Once up and running, you should see a bunch of output about threads hashing away and the occasional "yay!!!".  If you get a lot of "booooo" instead, something's amiss
