I love this program...wish there were more miners in your pool so the returns are almost guaranteed. I am now on it with my 420MH/s...I will be adding some video cards soon when I get a deal on some 6870's...so I should end up around 1GH/s within the next few weeks.
Anyone else having problems with the BitMinter miner under Catalyst 11.7/Ubuntu? I'm currently at the Black Hat security conference in Las Vegas, far away from my own 6990, so I can't test this at the moment.
A few days ago I was running on 6990 with 64-bit Windows 7 and Catalyst 11.7 preview drivers. I also run some other GPUs on Ubuntu 10.04 and Red Hat 5.7. Maybe it's a problem with the final version of Catalyst 11.7. Odd that it works with Phoenix and not with BitMinter, though.

Haven't seen anyone mention this so I guess I'm the first with this problem.
The program doesn't detect my gpu. I'm getting this when I start it.

My GPU is a HD 6990. I have catalyst 11.7 and amd app (ati stream) SDK 2.4 installed and I'm on ubuntu 11.04 if that helps. Phoenix miner works fine so there shouldn't be anything wrong with my opencl.

I'm watching the numbers, seeing you and another miner fighting to be the fastest in the pool 
Hopefully will be able to put up a better fight once I can figure out why my fastest rig keeps throwing up the BSOD. Might need to swap out motherboards...Yeah, that's no fun. With luck it's the motherboard and not an expensive GPU gone bad.
Put about 3.5gh/s on your pool over the last few days. Hoping it works out! (Had given up on pools...)
Cool
I'm watching the numbers, seeing you and another miner fighting to be the fastest in the pool I will add some more statistics soon so everyone can see this.
For those who had problems getting the miner to run on Mac OS X; this was fixed in an update yesterday. This update also takes care of the errors that occurred when stopping and restarting GPUs on recent Catalyst versions.
Just quit and restart the miner to get the latest version.

Great
Well, it wouldn't prevent DDOS attacks. It might make it a little more difficult for DDOS attackers to overload the server with getwork-requests. But it would also shut out honest miners who just prefer different software.

so you are a pool with your own miner?
Yep. I noticed all the pools are almost the same, and that the miners could be improved. So I created a pool+miner combo that is different (better in my opinion) from the others out there. The pool works with other miners too, though.
Looks pretty cool, not sure if people would like to be locked in to your pool. (not dising your pool but I like to move around)
any thoughts of making it work with other sites?

It's just intended as a benefit for pool members. I don't plan to make it work with other pools, instead I plan to add extra pool-specific features when I get the time. Since I also wrote the pool backend myself it's easy to add new communication between pool and miner.

Bitminter mining pool has it's own custom miner.
Features of Bitminter client:
