Start GUIMiner.
Set Bitcoin client path
(
Solo Utilites -
Set Bitcoin client path)
Now GUIMiner aware of bitcoin client whereabouts.
If you never opened your bitcoin.conf and did not created user/password in it:
Set Bitcoin pass
(
Solo Utilites -
Create solo password)
Enter username and password.
GUIMiner will add them in bitcoin.conf
Now launch Bitcoin with server options
You cant launch it, if client already running.
If your client already running with -server flag, you can skip that step.
(
Solo Utilites -
Launch Bitcoin client as server)
Time to create new miner
(
File -
New Opencl miner or
New other miner)
Server - Chose Solo from dropbox.
Enter your username and pass, created in solo utilites section (or if you already have user\password in bitcoin.conf - use them)
Choose device and fill Extra flags field with options if needed.
You set.
Click Start.
In left lower corner you will see:
Difficulty 1 hashes: 0 (number will rise - it replaces "shares" that used in pool mining and works as indicator that all normal).
In right lower corner you will see hashrate.
-----------------------------------------------
Recommended to have Solo miner as backup, in case of your pooled miner malfunction.
To do so, make sure that -f number in your Extra flags field, of solo miner is larger than in your main, pooled miner.
-f flag related to Poclbm miner. Running Poclbm without -f flag, starts miner with -f30 by default. Poclbm is used if you create
New OpenCL miner through
File menu. For other miners consult on their main pages of the forum.
Both pooled (main) and solo miners should be started and running for that.
