PR has been given to fix merge mining with FCN, but I want to investigate more thoroughly before a merge is made.

My GOD,the wallet is very very wierd and too complicated to operate,Why dont release a wallet-qt as Bitcoin?

because this coin is not a bitcoin clone and so there isnt a wallet-qt to just copy and release. There is a bounty for a GUI wallet and there is already an experimental windows wallet...

I like this about Monero, but it seems it was written by cryptographers, not programmers. The damned thing doesn't even compile on Arch, and there are several bugs, like command history not working on Linux. The crypto ideas are top-notch, but the implementation is not.

I'd rather have a cryptographer write my new cryptocurrency and implement novel ideas and then have a programmer fix the bugs.

The other option is to have a programmer write a new cryptocurrency without sound cryptographic theories...that doesn't sound like a winning combination.

You can easily fix bugs, but you can't easily fix fundamental conceptual problems.

im having a really big problem trying to install on ubuntu 12.04? does anyone have a guide step by step commands would be greatly appricated.

I had the same problem. The fix was to eventually install boost 1.55 and i think g++ 4.8

anyway try this. It can be found on monero.cc :

git clone https://github.com/monero-project/bitmonero

cd ~ && wget https://www.dropbox.com/s/3pclp7sm94edmxl/install_monero.sh && chmod +x ./install_monero.sh && ./install_monero.sh

The second line  will take some time but it will manage to install them. To be sincere i havent test this line on 12.04. I did it manually somehow by adding repos...I cant remember exackly what repos i added.



Yah i tried that exact line they had, but it seems like it not working with 12.04 im very confused. driving me crazy!



when you try to build what errors do you get?

Glad to know that. More ppl will get into MRO with a user-friendly wallet.

I'm trying to use the .bat file so I changed the "wallet.bin" into my "myfilename.bin", the thing is when I launch the bat file, it doesnt let me copy paste my passwords.

Did you guys solve this ? I

If your trying to copy paste into simpleminer.exe copy what you want then click on the simple miner window. Then press alt + space bar and select edit then paste.

I want to copy past into simplewallet.exe after launching the .bat file. I've tried what you advised but it just autoquits the window, like my password was wrong.


try loading up a cmd window and then running the bat file that way. It's possible that you have an error in your script that is causing the program to quit. This will keep the window open after the command fails to run so you might be able to solve the problem.

in command line
type  cd c:\folder_location_of_bitmonerod                   then press enter
then
type simplewallet --wallet-file=myfilename.bin               then press enter
at this time it should ask you to type your password. if your password is right, it should open it. if your password is wrong then you may have miss typed our password.

Im not sure what to say to you. alt + spacebar brings up a menu that you can select edit then paste from. alt + f4 autoquits the window.
