I can't seem to get any active connections to the Feathercoin Network through feathercoin-qt. Any suggestions?

Enable UPNP in the FeatherCoin client and your router, or forward port 9336 to the computer running the FeatherCoin QT client, and configure your firewall to let the client listen on that port.

Strange issue. I turned on cgminer on a machine that I get ~800khs with when mining litecoin. Attempting to mine feathercoin I am getting less than 30. Anyone else having this problem, or can anybody provide some insight?

This happens to me from time to time as well, and I'm not sure of the exact problem. I'll get 290Kh/s out of Litecoin..and if I stop and restart it sometimes it goes down to 20Kh/s. If I switch to another alt coin, it stays around that 20Kh/s until I reboot my PC. After that, mining Litecoin (or any other alt on first run) goes at the normal 290.

Hmm...

Added the --fix-protocol command. Didn't fix the stratum messages :/ but it did increase my hash rate from 800 to 990 Cheesy

so thanks for that!
Any other suggestions to get the messages to go? Need them to go soon, as cgminer isn't reporting me getting and shares :/

well it's a start atleast Wink

did you try the alternate pool with the new port where you actually have to register to get in?

it's at http://fpool1.zapto.org:28339

Register for an account at http://fpool1.zapto.org:15005/

that's one is working for me, i haven't tried the other one since this one started

where can i see the actual difficulty?

if you use cgminer, it should be on top of the screen when you run it (difficulty : 65.5K or something atm)

The next difficulty increase in around 400 ++ blocks would be interesting. The hash rate has almost doubled from yesterday.

Having this same problem. Will tip feathercoin to whoever helps get it working.

Feel free to try my pool again, then I can check the log files to see if anything appears on my end. Does not look like many miners at the moment. Stats seem to be updating fine as far as I can tell - please let me know otherwise

you're getting those messages because your miner is only talking the stratum protocol which the pool doesn't support (yet?). disable it and you're good to go.

Thanks

and yeah I've registered on that one but I thought for some reason I'd get more FC on the first. Will I get the same amount on either pool?
I get shared on the second by the way, so of I get the same amount of coin on each, I'll just go for that one

It's the same amount

I can confirm that the stats are working. Little slow but working now and the web interface is actually pretty informative. The hash rate of the pool is only 380 Khashes/s at the moment so join us and give some power

execute your normal cgminer command line, and add --fix-protocol in the end, that should remove those messages.

It is, however, an indication that you are connected to the pool. A few posts ago, there was a new port for the pool, fpool1.zapto.org:28339 , but you have to register on the website to get an account, perhaps that'll give more results?

Thanks

I tried mine.altpool.com also but it seems to be quite empty or the stats are not updating correctly. Have to try that new zapto.org address.

This is what I have got recently using:

cgminer --scrypt -o stratum+tcp://fpool1.zapto.org:19327 -I 11 --thread-concurrency 4800 -g 1 -w 256 -s 1 --expiry 1 --queue 0 -u 6hcayowvVpo7XKWLDXbrDoRkFjNS7tMBYU -p x

Code:

[2013-04-18 12:47:44] Stratum from pool 0 requested work restart
[2013-04-18 12:47:45] Stratum from pool 0 detected new block

Round Estimate
1.97700406 FTC that's your current round info

as far as the vid card settings, i'm not an owner of an ATI card so it might be different, but with my Nvidia card i too struggle with intensity settings on cgminer, sometimes 11 works, sometimes it crashes within 30 seconds.

I'ld give cudaminer a try if i were you, see what rates you get there

Hmm, not sure about cuda, isn't that specifically for nvidia chipsets? I think I tried it on the spare pc in the living room which has an nvidia card, and was getting 1-2kh/s which made me realise that turning the pc on to test it was costing more than any amount returned from mining with it Wink

Not that this factors into why Im doing all this.

I have no idea what it was, perhaps I'd started it in a funky state, but I stopped the miner entirely, rechecked the configs, changed them back to what I had originally - with shaders @ 5760, I'd read that it could be a problem somewhere - and now it's running @350+-Kh/s with 0 HW errors. I can tell it's back to normal as typing is like using a tablet. Intensity at 16 currently.

6.3FTC in the round estimate now. I think I worked out what I was misinterpreting on the pool server. a 24hr estimate of 1,291.484 ? ha.. when I see it I'll believe it. And even then what really is a ftc worth )

Somehow through all the confusion, there are tiny little slithers of sense being made. One day I'll know something else ! That is a nice concept :

Cheers for the advice tho!
