Would that be http with port 3333?
exactly.

WAIT means it's waiting on new work from the miner core, which suggests the work producing thread is getting stuck somehow. Can you make a debug log?It would also be helpful to try versions in between (start with half way in between) to narrow down the range of changes that could be responsible.
Code:
bfgminer all your options first --debuglog 2>debug.log
Is there something indicator that I can search for in the log? Typically it runs for several hours until the mining tasks stop working.

Yesterday, I changed my bfgminer from an fairly old version to 2.10.2. Now I have the problem that the GPU miner just stops hashing. One GPU thread is on WAIT and the other one is doing a few kh/s. When I stop bfgminer and start it again, it starts hashing again with both threads in the Mh/s area. Pool is eligius.st (getblocktemplate), intensity is 11.
Which version were you using before?It was one of the early 2.9 versions. Unfortunately I just deleted the old version after the new version started to work.

Try using http instead of stratum+tcp. It's worked for me for other pools.

Hey Luke-Jr
Any idea why I can't log on to bitminter using stratum?
I am trying to connect using:
stratum+tcp://mint.bitminter.com:3333/
and all I get in return is
"No servers were found that could be used to get work from"
I initially tried bfgminer-2.10.* but Doc Haribo says try it with 2.9.* as it worked for him.

I was curious - have you received an asic from any of the companies that plan to release them for use in adding support to BFGMiner or specs at least?
Haven't received any yet, but will be receiving boards from Butterfly Labs, ASICMINER, and bASIC when they're ready.Unless there was a change, bASIC is out ... gonne ... hasta la vista, baby!

Haven't received any yet, but will be receiving boards from Butterfly Labs, ASICMINER, and bASIC when they're ready.Avalon and Deepbit don't seem interested in third-party development this time around, so support for those will likely depend on someone else donating a device or maintaining the code.
Avalon comes with cgminer in it, since it is a complete computer, not just a mining device.

No answer regarding the big I found with the GH/S showing instead of KH/S?

The GPU mining and API are copied from cgminer - he didn't write them
And then improved upon...
LJR's advertisement campaign was that he was the one who added FPGA support into CGMiner. Kano is specifically pointing out the GPU and API portions of BFGminer, which were copied from CGMiner. IIRC, LJR hasn't touched those areas of his clone BFGminer all that much, if at all.Not to dismiss the bugfixes and minor improvements that are there (or the many driver-independent improvements and fixes), but the bulk of this code is still Con (OCL) / Kano (RPC) as-is.

I recently switched away from using Phoenix which I'd been using since GUI miner had some issues connecting for a lot of people. I'm the type of person that finds something that works and sticks with it. However, needing to prepare for some new FPGAs and ASICs, I needed to upgrade my mining software. As a test, I put it on my desktop first to play around with, and I noticed a slight performance increase, but I waived it off as a fluke. After I set it up remotely on my dedicated rack, however, I figured out that I got a decently significant increase in performance. Im currently running at 10% faster than with Phoenix, but it'll vary from 5%-15% faster. So, I'm please to say that I've found a new miner. I also like tr fact I can make changes to my mining program without having to stop and restart the process. It makes testing (and saving) different settings really easily. So, a big thanks, and job well done!

Wow i am impressed. Well done.

I am having a very weird issue when I use your miner only... I am mining Litecoins and for some reason my Hash Rate is showing in GH/S there is no way I am going 16 - 20+ GH/S on a ATI 5770 what is going on when I use CGMiner it shows KH/S as it should. Can you please look into this.
