I had to install the package firmware-atheros to get networking working on my WiFi card, but that's not a big deal, and I wonder how many other people are going to be mining on WiFi cards with this similar chipset. As long as I'm using persistence I'm not worried about something I only have to do once.
The major thing is to just get the latest version out there so I can overclock my cards beyond the limits that the Catalyst 11.5 drivers allow! Grin

I'd like to give this a try. Is this still ideal today? Been a while since people have posted here.

i really would like to give linuxcoin a try, but i am stuck even copying it to usb drive (using ubuntu) - if i copy the .iso to usb using unetbootin the resulting medium is not bootable. what is the trick to make it bootable?

Hi OP - do you still have a link for this project? I was an early user/donor and would like to try it out again.
All, I have found a copy of the project on my external hard drive and verified it works. I will host it and link the file here. Please PM me if this is urgent for you or I will take my time. Bounties accepted of course, but not mandatory

So has this project dissolved, or has a better alternative come into play?
Can we get this going again? Making BTC globally accepted via a plug-n-play distro seems a really good idea, at least if you want to see Bitcoin thrive.
I'd help but I'm not a programmer, though I will attempt to install this and post my feedback.

I`m exploring linuxcoin for 1 day 
linux generally for a bit.
I can upgrade drivers in ubuntu, but cant do that same moves on linuxcoin.
I need to install 12.2 at least.
Donno why the answer is always like: uninstall fglrx, but when i try to do so(sudo dpkg -r fglrx ....) he andwers - there is no fglrx installed. Can any1 tell me where to find sollution??

Well I wish I could spend time on little things like linuxcoin. Maybe I'll find the time to make linuxcoin into something more in the future.
Why not just release your live-build configs and such? Shouldn't everything linuxcoin just be in a folder you can make public?I would have donated a long while ago if you hadn't abandoned the project with no source and no ability to move it forward. And it has nothing to do with the abandonment, and everything to do with not being able to move forward. I went to BAMT and have been happy with it, but I still see a future for Linuxcoin.
Didn't exist
I didn't use debian's live scripts to create linuxcoin it was all thrown together not really knowing the fully how to put a more official version together so it was all laid out in a folder on an old laptop. Unfortunately I lost the "source". And to tell you the truth I'm not bothered about donations too it was a learning experience and I gained knowledge so I'm happy
I haven't checked my bitcoin wallet for around 8 months.Linuxcoin has soooooo much potential !! I had lots of plans and unfinished work to put in motion
I'd love to have the time. Maybe I'll collaborate on another distro. That way I can put as much work in as life allows me without holding up progress. Ha! I don't feel so bad about my ghetto process for building p2pcoin now. I just have a folder and a script to build the squashfs, ISO and torrent. I've been merging packages into that folder by hand.
haha cause thats how we roll

Unfortunately I lost the "source". There's not a lot to linuxcoin really. I suppose the kernel work was the most painful, most other things were pretty much as they come. Anyway I can never 100% promise I will get time soon but when I'm settled into my new home I'd love to at least get the ball rolling and put something open source together. Linuxcoin need lots of love and attention, Not to mention a 32bit version. It's nice to see linuxcoin still being used by peops though. So I'd say a dead but not buried project

I still think Linuxcoin could be useful if further developed.
This is mainly because it is small compared to BAMT ( 700 MB ) and always detects my GPUs.
Too bad developer does not have time for this and refuses to open source so somebody else can take his place.
