Quote from: davidonpda on June 22, 2010, 14:55:37 How about in the options menu you can turn it off or on, and specify an interval in minutes for how often it should display? I say keep it simple; more choices isn’t always better, it just makes it overwhelming and confusing […]

Yeah, r89 works as expected for me. It doesn’t seem to have any problems creating or removing icons, but I’m using XFCE, so that might be the difference. In addition, there’s a difference between standard behaviour for tray icons in Windows and Linux. In most Linux apps, clicking the tray […]
Read moreRe: How fast do the fastest computers generate bitcoins?
I only have a 1Ghz netbook running bitcoin at the moment, so I’m curious what kind of bitcoin generation rates the faster computers get. 100/week, 1000/week, 10000/week? How big of an advantage is there to having a faster computer? I’ve noticed that hashing performance doesn’t vary as much between CPUs […]
Read more0.3 almost ready — please test the Mac version!
I finished everything on my list to do for version 0.3. The code on SVN is about ready to release. Testing at this point is much appreciated. Related posts: Re: 0.3 almost ready — please test the Mac version! Mac OS version – requires Intel processor and 10.5 (10.4… Re: […]

Satoshi, that definitely made it look better for me, but now Bitcoin won’t minimize to tray in Ubuntu 10.04. The proper check box is checked, but it just minimizes to my taskbar like always. On Ubuntu 10.04 it wouldn’t remove the taskbar button cleanly, so I made it leave it […]

I integrated the hashmeter idea into the SVN version. It displays khash/s in the left section of the status bar. Two new log messages: 21/06/2010 01:23 hashmeter 2 CPUs 799 khash/s 21/06/2010 01:23 generated 50.00 grep your debug.log for “generated” to see what you’ve generated, and grep for “hashmeter” […]
Read moreRe: Dying bitcoins
Hello, if somebody’s loosing his wallet (e.g. due to disk crash) he’s not able to get back his coins, is he? So every time a person looses coins, they’re lost forever? So the bitcoin network will slowly shrink over time? (Because there will always be people who loose wallets!) TIA […]

Quote from: NewLibertyStandard on May 23, 2010, 16:28:12 Bitcoin looks ugly in Ubuntu’s new default theme. It seems that some, but not all of the theme settings are being picked up. The unselected file menu should have light text with a dark background, but it incorrectly has light text with […]
Read moreRe: Get 5 free bitcoins from freebitcoins.appspot.com
The Bitcoin Faucet now shows how many coins it has available to give out (on the left-hand side of the page). The number is only moderately accurate– donations will take 5 or 10 minutes to show up in the balance. I also implemented another anti-cheating measure that should make casual […]
Read moreRe: On IRC bootstrapping
The SVN version now uses IRC first and if that fails it falls back to a hardcoded list of seed nodes. There are enough seed nodes now that many of them should still be up by the time of the next release. It only briefly connects to a seed node […]
