Unbelievable, I hate this fucking piece of shit coin so fucking much, if it wasn't so profitable I wouldn't touch this buggy bullshit. Well it is profitable when the wallet doesn't corrupt AGAIN and 15K GRC disappear into thin air. Fuck GRC, fuck GRC, fuck GRC.

Rob you should start calling it BOINC mining instead of CPU mining - it confuses people lol.
Anyways GreekBitcoin, it's not CPU Mining per say. Gridcoin's "CPU mining" is basically rewarding the people using their CPU for contributing to BOINC by calculating and comparing credits among all the people donating to BOINC.

yes i know but i saw something about changing something related with cpu mining. and that you need 51% to do this. What was that change?

What does the "Full speed" tick do? Does it override the configs intensity?

i just saw that you want to make the coin CPU. Has this happened? When i can see more about this? Why it happened and what is the purpose of this. Thanks.

Oops, yeah 
I've been typing 600 MH into a calculator all evening and it was muscle memory. Ordered a Monarch 600 to do BTC.
Too bad they won't do scrypt
edit: ha! and the monarch is GH. I've had too much caffeine today apparently.

You mean 800 kh/s
It's strange, I'm back to seeing a trickle of .3 at a time, after a day of 5 found blocks when I got the new card.
I'm running poolmining off at a hash rate of 800 mh/s.
How's the block solving going for other folks?

New Version Available:
1.1.5.4/65/7.71; Upgrade from RPC: Yes
* We fixed the German leaderboard factor problem (found today) (please upgrade and wait 1 1/2 hrs for the leaderboard to update; then verify).
* Due to the bloated wallet problem where the wallet grows daily when pool mining, and recent growth and efficiency, we switched our pool
mining system over to pay your pool mining rewards during your wallet hour (this should drastically reduce the transaction count and bring
stability back to the wallet)- if your wallet is larger than 1.5megs, send your coins to a new wallet and start over at your convenience.
If you are a pool miner, please upgrade to this version as soon as possible.
Best Regards,
Grid

Is it possible to mine Gridcoin in Linux?
Working on that now; Linux only works as a coin client; but I decided to take over the project; I don't have an eta to finishing the boinchash-security deal yet; its really complicated.Grid

CPU mining is now working perfect for me. I see myself in both pools, paid the .06 and just received the micro payment!
I'm sure this has been talked about but I cannot find it in the thread;
I use CPU to mine - 100% goes to BOINC (very cool) and I get GRC credit for that.
Does that credit (for BOINC) also get credited to avg daily for GPU calculation?
Are we double counting that CPU time?
No not as far as the leaderboard is concerned; the leaderboard & sql only looks at the GPU work; so it contains distinct boinc work contributed on the GPU side;I'm sure this has been talked about but I cannot find it in the thread;

When we get around to adding the CPUminers leaderboard as a separate table, it will only pick up that cpu side of the deal.

Hey Rob, it would be cool if we can display some Boinc or WCG stats on the main site. Like projects and work done and all that. I am not sure how much work that would involve, but would be neat.
Yes Traderman,That's a great idea; will definitely do it!

i have all updated drivers and the devolopment kit, do i need to download the beta drivers too?
I dont have a cgminer.conf actually and cant find one too. Im using the cgminer which is integrated in the gridcoin-qt

I believe it would be in C:\username\AppData\Roaming\Gridcoin\cgminer0\ in your case. It seems like it has some weird settings configured that are preventing it from working properly to me..
there is reallz no cgminer.conf shall i create one? If yes with which content?
You will find a really good guide here https://cryptocointalk.com/topic/1589-how-to-mine-gridcoin/
it contains the items you need to put into your cgminer.conf

Yes I suppose something like that, nicer format however.
This kind of thing?

Hey Guys,
How to fix this problem here..?
its the integrated cgminer in gridcoin-qt
Im using a r9-290

Isn't that a driver issue? Do you have the latest drivers and opencl?
http://developer.amd.com/tools-and-sdks/heterogeneous-computing/amd-accelerated-parallel-processing-app-sdk/downloads/
Also also maybe try deleting the cgminer.conf and see if helps. I use a .bat for my settings instead of writing a .conf.

I'd love to see some kind of project in place where the researchers can set up gridcoin accounts and portions of the coins we generate are contributed to their projects as well
