0.3.6 up and running on w2k/xp32/xp64/w7
nice speed-updates on all systems, guess we can prepare for another major step up in difficulty, now that all nodes do 2-3times the hashes they did before. is that a good or a bad thing?

Fastest possible stock build removes any advantage other 'special' builds would have. Which is good because generation will be more uniformly distributed. It's important for the official build to be always the fastest available. It should use any known optimization (including CUDA, OpenCL, ability to work on the Cell proc etc).
The one and only effect for now - another difficulty adjustment, still same chance to generate until more users/cores came in.

would an auto-update function built into bc be possible?

It's something that I have already suggested here :| http://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=259.0

I can only imagine the pain you went through to get these builds because I'm trying to build the program on a Ubuntu 9.04 box and so far I can't seem to find all the dependencies to compile no matter how much I keep installing packages and compiling source, LOL.

I can't understand why you're having so much pain. I just followed the instructions in build-unix.txt. I made a couple little corrections for Boost 1.37, which I'll put on SVN the next time I update it, noted below: Dependencies ------------ sudo apt-get install build-essential sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-dev sudo apt-get install libssl-dev sudo apt-get install libdb4.7-dev sudo apt-get install libdb4.7++-dev sudo apt-get install libboost-all-dev (or libboost1.37-dev) wxWidgets --------- cd /usr/local tar -xzvf wxWidgets-2.9.0.tar.gz cd /usr/local/wxWidgets-2.9.0 mkdir buildgtk cd buildgtk ../configure --with-gtk --enable-debug --disable-shared --enable-monolithic make sudo su make install ldconfig added a comment in makefile.unix: # for boost 1.37, add -mt to the boost libraries LIBS= \ -Wl,-Bstatic \ -l boost_system \ -l boost_filesystem \ -l boost_program_options \ -l boost_thread \ -l db_cxx \ -l crypto \ -Wl,-Bdynamic \ -l gthread-2.0

Dependencies ------------ sudo apt-get install build-essential sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-dev sudo apt-get install libssl-dev sudo apt-get install libdb4.7-dev sudo apt-get install libdb4.7++-dev sudo apt-get install libboost-all-dev (or libboost1.37-dev)
That part I highlighted is what got me. You can't install all the libboost packages with that command (I tried to cheat with a * also), but part of my issue is I took it too literal like install *everything* that had to do with libboost, LOL. Really, all that was needed was the libboost1.37-dev package and that made all the compile errors go away. Everything else worked out just fine as far as compiling your own wxWidgets, compiling Boost 1.4, etc. So that last command should simply be sudo apt-get install libboost1.37-devOn a side note, I compiled mine on a Ubuntu 64bit system, so the finished program came out 64bit aware. I'm testing it out on some 64bit systems to see how well things go.

Except that wouldn't work for boost 1.40+ (on Ubuntu 10.04), where you need to get libboost-all-dev. Seems they changed everything around in Boost recently, "-mt" and all that, makes it hard. BTW, I tried Boost 1.34 but it didn't have the boost.interprocess stuff. Mac OSX version is available now. See bitcoin.org or the SourceForge link.

Didn't know that was being compiled on Ubuntu 10.04, I was thinking of everything from a Ubuntu 9.04 point of view. Well for me, the libboost1.37-dev was all it needed on a Ubuntu 9.04 box to get a 64bit compile. Seems I'll just need to keep a bunch of virutal box for each one to avoid distro confusion when compiling ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

v0.3.6 works on FreeBSD/i386 7.2,7.3 and on FreeBSD/amd64 8.0
Compiles cleanly without any warnings, and appears to be working fine.
Are you doing anything special, or just gmake -f makefile.unix on FreeBSD/amd64? I'm having trouble getting it to compile on FreeBSD/amd64 8.1, but I'll freely admit that C++ is lost on me. I managed (using your patch for the makefile) to compile 0.3.3 previously so I think that all the proper bits are installed. I'm just trying to compile bitcoind for a headless FreeBSD box. Thanks.

I would post up the compile log in the Development & Technical section, might get more help there.

OlliPro's latest build is still faster, but this one comes close. 4700khash vs 5000khash
