Modular Python Bitcoin Miner - Official Thread

[ebereon]

On windows you need to use "\\.\COMxx" not "/dev/ttyUSBx" ...

If you look in the device manager and you put the unit in, you should see COM20 - 23. So only 2 of em are the right ones. On my win7 it was COM21 and COM23. But other people have COM22 and COM23. You have to test this.

You just earned yourself 5 btc my friend.  What's your address?

Received! Thank you!

Does anyone know how to use the modminer with this software.

Hi,

Is there any example configuration for solo mining with MPBM?
I have now configured MPBM for pooled mining, but I cannot figure out how to mine solo with MPBM. Anyone? Thanks in advance.

[shad]

you have to direct mpbm to your local bitcoin client i guess?
shouldn't be different to using a pool

[MykelSilver]

Is it really that simple? Thanks a lot!

I have tried your suggestion but I keep gettting this error:

I have configured my work source to connect to localhost:8332
Of course the bitcoin daemon is running.
Unfortunately there is no documentation of its configuration file.  
Anyone has any luck with the configuration of the bitcoin deamon?
Thanks in advance

 #server=1 tells Bitcoin to accept JSON-RPC commands.
 #server=1
 
 # You must set rpcuser and rpcpassword to secure the JSON-RPC api
 #rpcuser=Ulysseys
 #rpcpassword=YourSuperGreatPasswordNumber_385593

did you set those?

The MPBM webUI runs on Windows.

I running the bitcoin daemon on linux
I installed them in my home folder
There are two files:
-rwxr-xr-x. 1 mykelsilver mykelsilver 4,2M  8 mei 19:34 bitcoind
-rwxr-xr-x. 1 mykelsilver mykelsilver 9,3M  8 mei 19:34 bitcoin-qt

I cannot see any configuration file in ~/.bitcoin. This folder contains only the following files:

drwx------.   3 mykelsilver mykelsilver 4,0K 27 jun 21:23 .
drwx------. 107 mykelsilver mykelsilver 4,0K 25 jun 18:25 ..

[mykelsilver@fedora .bitcoin]$

In the configuration of my client I cannot set any username or password.

In my previous post I connected through the wrong ipaddress. Now I connect to the ipaddress of the linux server
It is to complex to explain all the details.
 Never mind. It is not possible to solo mine with MPBM for me.

Anyway thanks for your patience and time.

Regards,

[MykelSilver]

Wow I works now. I had to create the bitcoin.conf file manually 

[freshzive]

are there any specific settings I should use with P2Pool to reduce DOA and stale %?

what do others get for stale % using P2pool with MPBM?

How can I get this working for BFL Singles?

My worker dropdown only shows options for the x6500.

Git pull the latest code. I could not get the bfl manager to work so I use the individual workers. Make sure to set the path to the appropriate /dev/ttyUSB#

I did Git it. It appears that it fails to load because I don't have pyusb or pyserial and opkg says they do not exist. This is odd because they do exist:
http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/repo/?pkgname=python-pyusb
http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/repo/?pkgname=python-pyserial

Edit:

OK, I got them installed by downloading them manually now all I need is the ftdi-sio driver but I have to save that for tomorrow. If anyone can help with the driver that would be awesome, my OS (Angstrom) didn't come with it.

[shad]

did you make "opkg update" before?

[binspac]

Got the ftdi_sio driver and did:

Code:

modprobe ftdi_sio vendor=0x0403 product=6014

But when I plug in my device it doesn't create /dev/ttyUSB0. Here is my dmesg output when plugging it in: http://pastebin.com/8hbhVxzL

Can anyone help?

System: WM8650 Netbook
OS: Angstrom
Device: BFL Single

I'm trying to make some adjustments to my MPBM webui. Can't find there right place in the code to adjust the height of the viewport for the statistics gadget. Pointing me to the right file is probably all I need. thx in advance.


EDIT: For future reference the post below is spot on. Thx.
