I'm currently running this with no anti virus and it's working ok but I'd like to have something compatible it there is something.

I'm setting up this account in preparations for some more serious hardware but am currently mining with an old video card. The miner says I'm doing 20 mh/s but the dial still show's zero. This may be normal with such a slow card but It would be nice if you could reassure me of this.

Also the performance for the card shows I should be mining 0.0003 bitcoins/day but the overall performance is showing zero.



The website is trying to estimate your hashrate based on how often you send in proofs of work. For low hashrates this doesn't really work well and it will often show zero.

You could check out the AVG forums or support for how to make AVG work with java webstart. Many users have had problems with this.

Hi,

I'm having a problem with the miner that it just gets to the point where is finished downloading and then gets stuck verifying and doesn't actually start. Is this a new issue or is it something I'm doing wrong?

I'm using windows 7 with firefox, and I have java intalled

thanks
Do you have AVG antivirus?  Disable/uninstall it if you do, then try again...

Haha, what a quick reply Smiley thank you. You are right, I do have AVG, can you recommend a different virus protection that will work with this? thanks again

I have tried every OS I could find. Closest i got was the problem I posted before using the hard float raspbian. I spent 2 days straight trying to get it up and running before I gave up and switched to minepeon. Which version of java did you use? Did you use Icedtea and if so what version?

I believe it was Raspbian with openjdk. It took about 60 seconds to start, or at least it felt that way, but it ran ok after it finally got up and running.

I have been trying to get bitminter up and running on my Pi for quite a while now. I have managed to get java installed and bitminter launches and downloads its own files after clicking the link on the page. But during the loading it pops up an error saying "JNA native support (/com/sun/jna/linux-arm/libjnidispatch.so) not found in resource path"

I did run it on a raspberry pi a little bit for testing. Which operating system did you install on your pi?

I can't get the btminter mining button to work on firefox, nor chrome. I'm running ubuntu 11.10, and have OpenJDK Java 7 Runtime and Iced Tea Java Web Start 6 installed. When I click on the button in chrome, it just downloads the bitminter.jnlp file. In Firefox, it tries to run it, but running it in Firefox isn't right as it just opens an empty window. The button ran fine on the Windows 7 PC. any ideas?

Sounds like the java plugin is not working in your browser. Could you try starting from command line instead?

Code:
javaws http://bitminter.com/client/bitminter.jnlp

OK, here's the frequencies for the last 200 BTC blocks.... as I suspected, the outer ends are more heavily weighted:

For that little data it looks pretty even. If you want a thorough analysis have a look at the one Organofcorti did: http://organofcorti.blogspot.com/2013/05/131-bitminter-and-luck.html

Dunno what's wrong but I cannot login anymore with the Bitminter client, bad credentials.

If you are still having problems please contact me through the contact page at the website and I'll look into it.

I just got a USB Block Erupter and installed it properly and started minting with the Bitminter client.

After 2 hours it doesn't seem to be doing anything.

Here's a screenshot:



The speedometer is still showing 0.00 Mhps but on the top right the current hashrate is shown.

It sometimes give "Connection timed out".

I set it to Use port 80 (firewall friendly) in the settings because I have a crappy modem that blocks many ports.

Advice would be welcome.  Smiley


Did you type in your pool info correct? Username and password formatted correctly?

I downloaded bitminter.jnlp again, now it works.

Hey, Doc - love the client, and am eagerly awaiting LTC support, since I can't seem to get my rigs doing anything in that realm with cgminer for some arcane reason.

I've been looking at the CDF's for weeks, and I'm pretty sure that they are not evenly distributed. There are far too many in the 90th percentile and 10th percentile than would be expected... Any idea why that might be? Are we doing something wrong, somehow? I'll post real data later today, for you to look at...

Thanks, again, for a wonderful client!

I'm on similar situation.  Tried some LTC clients, but couldn't get them to run.  I've stopped BTC mining at this point...may consider again if/when bitminter comes out with an LTC minter.

Stopped my 2 gpu's today as well, .0197 per day just isnt gonna cut it.

If you want to mine litecoin, I coded a guiminer that's in my sig.

I couldn't get this LTC client to run on two PC's I tried.  I'm kind of liking the peace not hearing them GPU fans roaring nonstop.  The profit was really minimal in either BTC or LTC for the pain involved.  The bitminter java client was the painless one of the bunch, but alas, no LTC support and not worth running on GPU's anymore.

ditto, plus the wife was complaining about the electricity bill! hosted only for me from here on out.

I have the icedtea web launcher and everything seems to work fine other than missing this one .so file. I am not sure how to get this to work since that /com/sun/blah blah isn't a path I can move the .so file to. Any suggestions? I would really like to be able to use the Pi to control my erupters instead of having to use my main PC!

sorry if i missed it, i really searched thru this thread.. im using bitminter with a part of my cluster, and because of logistic (hub port and psu) i would like to put 2 x6500 to run on a bitminter client.. does it support it?

Would love to know if you fully support x6500's also.  Ie; I can move away from mpbm...
