need to make installation easier.. really turns people off from this coin
I agree= its being worked right now.  We have already removed 50% of the features, and it is becoming more and more like an iPhone app.
Give us a little time to cross compile it.  Most settings are now automatic.

Hey guys, are there any working addnodes?  Been trying to setup a Block Explorer for Gridcoin for a little while now and can't get any connections at all.  Tried the following addnodes with no luck...

addnode=www.pgp.mx
addnode=gridcoinweu01.cloudapp.net
addnode=gridcoinweu02.cloudapp.net
addnode=gridcoinneu01.cloudapp.net
addnode=gridcoinneu02.cloudapp.net

addnode=gridcoinwus01.cloudapp.net

addnode=gridcoinea01.cloudapp.net
addnode=gridcoinea02.cloudapp.net
addnode=98.114.181.178
addnode=76.187.184.27
addnode=66.187.94.194
addnode=76.74.177.224
addnode=84.125.196.167
addnode=71.233.139.62


I just did a successful sync only using www.pgp.mx

Make sure you are on the right version or you'll wait forever Tongue

I'm thinking about mining this now that I owe 9600GRC to someone that I can't get back to my wallet Sad  , looks like a pita to setup though.

Still no luck with this, every other coin daemon i have downloaded and installed with the proper addnodes works fine.  Is there some sort of trick for this daemon to run on linux?  0 Connections all the time and the following errors when it does try to connect...

Code:
connected 76.187.184.27:32760
send version message: version 100001, blocks=0, us=107.170.13.110:32760, them=76.187.184.27:32760, peer=76.187.184.27:32760
ba ,,0,CRD_V,SOLO_MINING,GDSHkak7MazgicB7qJ6kocyMoy1nq6pi47,,,,?socket closed
disconnecting node 76.187.184.27:32760
connect() failed after select(): Network is unreachable

Suppose maybe that should be my next question.  Has anyone setup and had the coin daemon connect and sync on linux?  Smiley

What version of the wallet are you running? Newest is 2.1.0.7 and my gues is that you are running 2.1.0.5

The daemon was built off the source code available in the OP as of 4 days ago...  Is it possible that the github source is not up to date?

I was just reading through the Gridcoin Reddit page and there was a very interesting suggestion to have custom Boinc projects like 3D rendering and have miners getting bonus payments for participating. I think this would be very entertaining for all GRC miners and would strengthen the community quite a bit.

Rob is a lot more active on Cryptocointalk so maybe people get impression he is not active on Bitcointalk.

GRC price is rising again, very nice! And it bothers me that many say devS don't do anything and there is only one dev and he uses A LOT of his time to make GRC a better coin.

Hi,

Tying to mine this with a 6 GPU rig...Do I have to use the Mining Module? Do i need 1 instance of cgminer for each GPU?
BOINK is open but im unsure if its supposed to be SUSPENDED or not?

Im still confused, can someone help?

Thanks

Thanks alot for not answering any of my doubts :/
That tutorial does not answer any of them.
Is it mandatory to start cgminer through Mining Module?
Do I have to use 1 instance per GPU?

Why do I get a blank page on the GuiMiner tab?

Last time I ask about this coin

I liked GRC and invested quite a bit on it. Slowly bought a bunch at 2700-3000 without anyone noticing and started putting up some buy walls to reinforce my position.
Dont get me wrong. I approached this coin as an investor because I believed in its potential. The whole idea behind the concept was really good until I had my first problems with mining.
You see... as a hardcore miner with thousands invested in rigs, I expect some minor but acceptable problems, bugs, etc...
But what I did not expect was the complete lack of support from some egocentrical lazy ass devs that JUST DON'T CARE.

So, now that the price is where it was.... YES It was me that DUMPED your shitcoin asscoin down from 6000 to 4000 countering all the potential and leaving it as it is...a lifeless example of promise.

Best of all, I didn't even use FUD.

Enjoy and remember!

WE RUN THIS SHIT
I chortled. You're getting mad on the non-official forums. As a 'hardcore miner' you don't know how to set up scrpyt mining? lawl.

The command posted above worked to get my other rig working/mining but I think I may just switch those other two back to potcoin and sell that to buy some GRC Smiley  The mining process is pretty resource intensive and the biggest issue is running the GPUs and the CPU at 100%, cpu at 100% lowers the gpu speed but also draws a TON of power, I have a 1300watt platinum psu in some of these rigs and w/ 3-4 gpus + cpu its just to much.

Seems like its faster to mine something else and just buy the coins from you guys Smiley

Heh, i know the feeling.. i'm up to 4Kwats :S

I have another miner going at 1Mh for 8 hours and have yet to find a block, seems odd since my other machine has been finding blocks.




Thoughts?

Luck is a big factor and 8 hours is definitely normal for 1mh.
Also I've seen the diff today as high as 12 so that's one of the reasons.

I have seen that happen, sometimes one of my rigs will find several while the others don't find much. There is luck involved in mining. Also look @ how many stales you have.

Have 3 of these suckers running just fine, another one is saying boinc utlization 0 but cpu is 100%

Any tips?

Hi Chiznitz,

try to run cmd as admininistrator, type "lodctr /r" without quotes and hit enter, then restart your Gridcoin client.

This helped me when I had the same issue.
Andrew.
