got a Lancelot mining that pool with kramble's python Blakecoin miner and can getwork somethings not setup right  Cry

are you on a win x86 or x64?

Solo!

Haha.

try getwork is on port 8337
http://eu1.blakecoin.com
http://ny1.blakecoin.com

might be quicker than waiting for a block find?


Tried that too:

Ugh, now I can't get mine.bat to work.

Before I just spammed it a couple times but now nothing.

I am still using your python Blakecoin miner for the Lancelot boards and set that to diff 1 works a treat on the pools Grin

That's good to know. I've actually switched to using cgminer. It needs to be compiled specifically for the lancelot via #define LANCELOT_52 in driver-icarus.c ... I was lazy and didn't bother to make it a command line option or rebuild the bitstream for the CM1-style protocol). Anyway its working fine, with the added bonus of automatic failover.

I've still got the problem of the raspberry pi network stack hanging roughly once a day, but that's been solved with a watchdog and automatic reboot, so its been running fine for the last few weeks (I even flashed the lancelot MCS bitsteam, so it should survive a power outage, not that we get many of them here).

Jude: Good luck with X6500, hopefully we can get this working soon.

I did solo-mine, would have found two blocks.

But the base difficulty and golden nonce are off in mine.py for the coin so it counted the solved blocks as rejected.

There is an easy work-around, just uncomment line 104 of mine.py. This will submit all shares regardless of the difficulty target, which is harmless when solo mining, and since (AFAIK, Blue may want to chip in here) the blakecoin pools are currently fixed diff=1 (even though the dashboard may report higher), it should be OK there too.

A slightly more sophisticated fix would retain the subsequent CheckTarget() and logger calls, but always return True.

Thanks for the response Kramble!

I will give this a shot.

my pools are fixed diff 1 so work should get accepted if the share is diff 1 and the miner can submit it, kr105's pool blakecoinpool.org is diff 2  

getwork is on port 8337
http://eu1.blakecoin.com
http://ny1.blakecoin.com

give it a try  Grin

OK, thanks, I was a little confused about the diff, but I did recall kr105's as sometimes reporting diff 2 and sometimes diff 4 on the dashboard. Anyway the worst that can happen is an increased reject rate, which is not ideal from the pool's point of view, but fairly harmless if it's just for testing. The FPGA always returns diff 1 shares, so unless there is an issue with hardware errors there will be no problem on your pools.

Once we've actually got some shares accepted on pool, the mining script can be tweaked to fix any target issues (see my previous post on the workaround).

no problem bzyzny you have quite a good understanding about crypto stuff  Grin

perhaps more than most, but i feel like im still only scratching the surface. i studied network communications at university and loved protocols and encoding schemes, but cryptography wasn't something i started learning about until i discovered bitcoin Smiley
