Here is the linux tut: http://gridcoin.us/download/InstallingGridcoinQTOnLinuxAndMac.txt

Hello I need some help. I've just finally installed gridcoin-qt onto my Ubuntu setup. This is the first time using Ubuntu and Wine. My question is, how do I back up my wallet? Using Wine, I can't seem to find how to look into the directories. Also having the 0 blockchain connections but apparently I just have to update my config file?

The thing is at the moment my config file just says 'os=linux' as said in the instructions, but now I read that I must add nodes? Does this come before the os=linux? after? I just need the working config file as I'm getting 0 connections.
Also still no wiser on how to find my wallet so I can back it up.

i got it running with the commands:

Code:
addnode pgp.mx add
upgrade

deleted all installations of gridcoin downloaded what you said and  installed looks like its missing the .0.0.7 for version, its version 2 but not 7.


Try using the upgrade command from the console. That worked for me every time. Also from this version onwards auto upgrading is enabled!

Good luck

I posted all this on twitter days ago.

Mandatory Upgrade: 9.7/2.1.0.7

I am assuming the site was not updated since the DDOS attack.



Newest version is 2.1.0.7!!!

All I have is this addnode=www.pgp.mx and my wallet is working fine. You might have to delete the blocks and chainstate folders in appdata and rebuild the chain from the start.

Can anyone give me an idea of the BTC/scrypt MH-equivalent when mining Gridcoin?  If profit is even close to mining other coins, I would love for my GPUs to be doing something to help humanity in addition to making my house uncomfortably warm.  
I'll be frank.
At it's current all time low of 0.000019, i find it's tripple the proifitability than ltc.
Seriously.

edit:
FYI Guys, i've created 5 super seed nodes for the gridcoin payment network and created a guide at the same time.

Check the thread out Smiley https://cryptocointalk.com/topic/9199-gridcoin-supernodes/

Downloaded latest client, deleteed peers.dat, added your nodes, still 8 days behind and can't sync.  This shit is getting old, I still owe someone over 9000 coins that are stuck as unconfirmed transaction in my wallet.  It's been a month now.

Don't expect to get on a big exchange unless these issues are resolved.

Deleted both folders, deleted peers.dat added your peers along with others, No block Source available.


Downloaded the MSI installer from the webpage, version is v2.0.0.3-g71-prod


Ok so whenever there is a new version you need to update the links....where can i get the newest version if the version on the website is not that one...


Ugh, if you're going to have a website it needs to be the #1 place stuff is updated first.  We don't all have time to go scroll threw twitter finds to find the correct information.  If you provide a wallet source, please please make sure its updated.

Alot of the posts in this thread are because of different wallets located in different places.

Installing the new one now.

Unfortunately for now it is, if it wasn't for the recent hacking incidents we would have an improved linux wallet, but this is a very complex project so for now this is
what we have.

If you have an existing peers.dat file delete it, i had same issues on my rigs they would not sync unless the peers.dat file was deleted.



Oh thats been done about 20x also Wink

I truly think its because this is a windows coin and the linux source is so neglected. The funky hoops you need to jump to even compile it says a ton.
Tbh, the gridcoin really needs a fork to before the hacking, or a relaunch as it shouldn't have been launched in an alpha state.

Sorry to say but your comments are like you are some kind of god who knows every right answer for everything. We should have forked but I think it's a bit too late already. I get this feeling that you are only thinking your own good and not others.
By any chance would you be one of the people who benefitted from the 5mil+ GRC that were hacked out of the cryptocurrency itself? Making such accusations of grandeurism you appear to be opposing something that would hurt you more than everyone here.

But if you generally have something against my constant asking questions/suggesting features/getting involved with the community, i'm sorry but i don't feel like sitting back and reaping the rewards off the backs of others, i'd rather get involved and help develop this crypto.

Lets face it, there's only been like.. 2btc/day traded MAX on c-cex. The exchange has only had the wallet up for trade the last like 3 days, there was totally a window to reverse the issue.

Hi,

it's not even 3 million!

Well, it's great that you get involved, the reddit page for example is a nice job.
However, you write your posts in a more direct manner and sometimes it looks like you didn't read a whole post before reacting to it..so don't be surprised when someone reacts like that.

As I stated on the other forum a rollback of 6-7k blocks would only do more harm and from what I read Rob isn't a fan of that solution either.
Relaunch is a plain nonsense.

Andrew.
Gotcha, i'll take more time over my posts and try to not come off as much of a douche.
Yeah, i guess we've surpassed the window of opportunity for rolling back the network, no worries :/

doesn't he need to get in touch with Rob to get the keys he added to keep unauthorized builds off the network?
Hi,

yes, that's correct.
I sent him a PM and e-mail with Robs contacts.
