35.   Wait for the message that says you need to remove the USB flash-drive (DON'T DO THAT!), then just press "Enter"

This is a problem: Some times I need to remotely login and shutdown/reboot the machine, but this message will interupt the process since I'm not physically beside the machine and the ssh session has already closed

Is there a way to bypass this message?

What version ? this has been removed from 0.2b-final

For the guys struggling with my HDD install video. Its due to the hightened security PaX will not let grub probe anything lol. heres a fix.

Code:

for i in $(ls /usr/sbin | grep grub); do
  paxctl -C /usr/sbin/$i
  paxctl -cE /usr/sbin/$i
done
grub-install /dev/sdX
update-grub

I should be rolling out the HDD installer with a nice QT interface over the weekend

I was going down the PaX route next, once again your response is AWESOME!

Maybe i missed this, but where are the PXE setup instructions for your implementation?

Cannot wait to see the installer, I will confirm the above shortly and report back.

Have a great day Dr.Gr33n AND THANK YOU!

have everything up and running since some days and I am very happy with LinuxCoin. Really good work. Thank you for that!!

Anyway I still have some little questions.

One is regarding a little error which seem not to affect the mining process, but anyway I would like to know if this is normal behavior or if I can do anything to fix it.
During mining with smartcoin failover sometimes appearing this:

Code:

/opt/smartcoin/smartcoin_status.sh: line 151: [[: 10 10 10: syntax error in exp)

What does that mean?

Its caused from multiple entries being present in the database (this was from a bug, there should have only been one entry in the database). It is fixed in latest experimental releases, and I'd recommend that you update by:
1) Go to the control screen -> Edit Settings then change the development branch from 'stable' to 'experimental'
2) Use the Update function from the control screen - this should take give you a partial update to r607.  Restart smartcoin and run the  update again to go from r607 to the latest release.  There are many many new features and improvements (including a completely revamped settings engine, multi-machine support, poclbm support and a lot more).  Not only will you have the latest code, but your multiple database entries will be fixed in the process!


Feel free to post any smartcoin related questions in the smartcoin thread as I monitor it closely for support issues!

Thank you for your answer. I have done the update and the version is now 607s but the error is still there. I will post to your other thread also, therefore no need to answer here. ;-) Thank you.

They show fine in Device Manager, but Linuxcoin 0.2-Final doesn't see the second GPU and it doesn't make any difference if it is XFired or not. I'm exhausted, drunk, and giving up and going to bed.

You updated your bios ? Please people if I've said a hundred times if you have a problem can you post as much information about your system as possible. I will be rolling out a debug tool that will generate all the required information for me to debug soon.

Mikeo. Did you try regenerating the configuration file for your cards ?

Code:

sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf
sudo su
aticonfig --initial -f --adapter=all
/etc/init.d/gdm stop
/etc/init.d/gdm start

I would suggest you update bud. The previous version were alpha so can be buggy and I'm not supporting them. But hash out these two lines in /etc/init.d/live-boot

Code:

# printf "\n\n${MESSAGE} and press ENTER to continue:" > /dev/console

# read x < /dev/console

Sorry to bump people but I could do with some help testing my patched version of unetbootin. Had some weird reports and trying to get to the bottom of it but don't have the bandwidth to test because I'm running on a 3G dongle with 500MB of data.

http://linuxcoin.co.uk/downloads/unetbootin/

and use the download option with persistence.

Cheers !!

I don't have a USB so...I can't fully test it.

[drgr33n]

Thanks !! hold off for a moment because I've just identified another bug I'll post again when I'm ready to go. Sorry guys !!

[Smalleyster]

I'll test the new one when you post it, but frankly for a portable wallet 21b is far superior to the latest versions.

lol I'll quote one of your lines on that one "ye knows not of what he speaks" Would you like to explain why ?

Too confusing for the average user with the multiple choices.

In what context ? the whole thing or just the bitcoin client ?

[drgr33n]

New version of unetbootin is now online http://linuxcoin.co.uk/downloads/unetbootin/

AMD APP SDK v2.5 in testing.

@drg33n,

Regenerating the GPU config files worked! Thanks again.

Code:

sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf
sudo su
aticonfig --initial -f --adapter=all
/etc/init.d/gdm stop
/etc/init.d/gdm start

The forth line blew me out of Linuxcoin to a CLI. I thought I was toast, but rebooted and it worked! Now sees both GPU cards.

I'm happy to beta test for you. Let me know what you want done.

[drgr33n]

Ok I'm going to be releasing a beta version very soon I think with all the changes in the amd world.
