Are you like me, low funding and sad
hashing speeds. Mining Quark is a chore.
If your ready to learn how to Increase your hashing power for FREE.

This is one of them why didnt I think of that type things.
First of Head to Linode.com and sign up for a Free Trial. Its only 4 hours but, It works well. After signing up confirm by email and Login to your Linode account.
When you login you will be brought to the Rebuild tab on the dashboard. From the drop down window select Ubuntu 13.04 x64 should be near the top. After selecting Ubuntu 13.04 skip the other options and type in your password and click Rebuild. THis will take you to the Main Linode Dashboard tab, showing The Ubunto OS, click the Boot button. Wait about 2 minutes 30 seconds for the Node to Boot
Head to the Remote Access Tab, Copy the ip address next to where it says
ssh
[email protected] You will only need the Ip address.
Now you will need the Client to Login to your Node. It is called Putty (freeware) You can google Putty or follow the link to the Official Site.
http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/Download and Open Putty
In the Host box paste the IP address in the host box and click open,
A warning will Pop up asking to accept the keys for the node. Click yes
THe node Display- "Login as" type "root" and press enter
Followed by the password prompt, type in your password and hit enter.
Dont worry-it doesnt show any characters when you type in your password.
Then copy and paste the following code line by line; To paste in Putty just Right Click the mouse
sudo apt-get install build-essential libboost-all-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev libdb++-dev git libminiupnpc-dev screen autotools-dev automake
You may be prompted to Continue- Press y then hit enter.
Let it do its thing
Then Coninue down the code. Do one line at a time.
wget
https://github.com/uncle-bob/quarkcoin-cpuminer/archive/master.zipunzip master.zip
cd quarkcoin-cpuminer-master
./autogen.sh
./configure
make
then paste the final code, its setup for a p2p quark pool now but can be changed to your pool.
./minerd -a quark -o
http://176.221.46.81:8372 -u QMx3E1BWz5SFrwGcay7NCBsUobMoQhBWHD -s 3
For SRC just change the pool to your favorite Securecoin Pool.
Src example- ./minerd -a quark -o
0 -u 84BktkEBTLQi2dYrm.1 -p x -s 1
Now it should be mining, you can know disconnect from the Node if you want, just close Putty, it will keep mining.
There you have it, you are mining for free.
You may have guess this by know. But for more free trials make some burner emails at live.com and make a new account and go by the code again. After about 8 free trials you may be banned from Linode. To get around this, Download Tor browser the head to Linode.com, you will have a different IP so you can continue to use the Free Trials.
So your able to set up as many as you willing too. Make a new email address, then sign up for a new free trial. Some nodes get ~400 to ~1000khs
Morally this method has some issues, Im poor and dont have a badass computer so this is what I do to hopefully put myself in the position to afford my own equipment.
