[cal.97]

cal.97 if you really determined to try and make this work try

Code:

sudo updatedb

Code:

locate poclbm.py

then you should see the path where your poclbm.py resides. or just post the output and we'll see where it's at

edit: are you downloading LinuxCoin?

yes i am downloading linuxcoin
also i will try this, thanks.

yeah you're not even in the right directory I bet...

try typing "ls" and then "pwd"  to see where you are

once you find the folder where you have the phoenix miner type "cd <insert folder name>" and press enter.

then try that whole python command..

currently installing linuxcoin on a usb stick, or attempting, and those commands return nothing :/

Code:

callam@wejwdfijsfhjnfhndlvjnvanldsndvnsvn:~$ sudo updatedb
[sudo] password for callam:

that means your script did not install the miner for whatever reason. let me know how it goes with linuxcoin

taking iwantbitcoins advice ran the script again, and using your commands managed to locate bitminere0.something or other..

Code:

callam@wejwdfijsfhjnfhndlvjnvanldsndvnsvn:~/bitcoin-0.3.19$ python poclbm.py -d1 --host=deepbit.net --port=8332 --user=**** pass=****
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "poclbm.py", line 5, in <module>
    from BitcoinMiner import *
  File "/home/callam/bitcoin-0.3.19/BitcoinMiner.py", line 8, in <module>
    from sha256 import *
ImportError: No module named sha256

I think that error is related to sdk not being present. In short - get linuxcoin running
