'Got LP'
-
Hi all. I’m mining using GUIminer Scrypt. After mining for some hours, I’ve recently noticed that it is giving the the message ‘Got LP’; and it no longer shows how many shares are being accepted.
A google search a proved fruitless - what does ‘Got LP’ mean? -
Hmm, i don’t know. But you could try setting up ‘cgminer’ (http://forum.feathercoin.com/index.php?topic=486)
Really not hard at all! :) -

Ok thanks. I’ve researched long polling now, and I understand it’s purpose.
What I’m still not sure of, is what suddenly causes GUIminer to tell me ‘Got LP’. Is this a good thing / bad thing? Does it require me to do something when this occurs? -
+1 for Cgminer.
Longpoll is slow on the block updates. I ran a test lastnight where i connected 2 of my miners to my soon to made public pool - 1 via Stratum and 1 via Longpoll. The stratum had the new block a good minute before the longpool miner got the update. With 2.5 minute blocktimes you [i]could[/i] effectively be loosing half your shares.
If you struggle getting cgminer running, shout here and we’ll have you running in no time.

Thanks for the replies. For now, using GuiMiner [b]with[/b] cgminer. I may look into the command line side of things if I have time this weekend. But things are running smoothly for the time being:
