Macminer tutorial pro#
Hey, how long did you give it? it takes a minute or so for my Mac Pro to start accepting shares with the guiminer unlike poclbm itself, for some reason (Just tested from fresh download to this machine now). If you're using other already are your settings server port 3333 with user/pass that's working on another miner?Īs an aside, I'm close to finishing a version of poclbm with a native Mac interface (rather than wxpython) which I'm going to put on the App store, which will let you quit etc. I would recommend setting the pool to 'other' and entering all the settings manually, I didn't change the included pool list so some of them might be out of date (slush's definitely was, it had the old url listed which changed when it moved over to stratum). I'm running exactly the same setup as you with the same results, but the pool (slush) shows the results.
Macminer tutorial install#
app with py2app, it works a bit better if you install the project and the dependencies the linux way and launch it from the terminal, but this should work for people who don't want to do that. I just bundled their project in to a mac. The date comes from the poclbm gui project on github, I don't think there's an undated version. That means that you can launch the poclbm process mining with your settings but you're not able to alter them once it's started, and you have to force quit when you want it closed. This app was made using py2app (same as the 2011 version someone else put together back then) Hey, thanks for the feedback, I should have added some extra info


If you're extra generous, throw a bit my way Keep an eye on those temperatures with iStat Pro: Set fans to rev up with something like smcFancontrol Notes: While I find poclbm is very good at finding the right operating temperature on a MBP with default settings, I take no responsibility if you overheat your computer with this software! Don't blame me if you set the intensity high up and it burns out your graphics card! My 17"MBP doesn't seem to have a problem with it (in cold english winter weather) but if your GPU is less tolerant of heat (specific tolerances vary even with the same models) it could potentially burn out your gpu, and at least one person on the board has reported leaving a work iMac running a miner overnight and finding the gpu non-functional the next day. Known issues: if you don't press 'stop' on any miner you start in the app, they keep running after you quit and need taking care of in Activity Monitor (in your utilities folder)

(I recommend MacMiner as it doesn't require a force quit and you can stop the poclbm process without using activity monitor - although currently if you don't stop it before you quit you still need to do it that way - it won't keep mining once you've quit, but having several instances of poclbm running idle bugs me personally. always get the app from .uk or the github: The last one was from 2011 so I figured perhaps someone would appreciate a binary of a the latest version (with stratum support) to get mining without having to drop down to the command line and install some dependencies…Įdit: or try my new native mac GUI - choose from poclbm, bfgminer or cpuminer for scrypt in the 'View' menu: This thread has been replaced and may not be up to date.
