Okay, so I got bored and installed MinePeon onto my second RPi. I HAD it working but when i changed the credentials to my own, the web ui stopped working. Stats dont show up any more. I get this:

Error getting device list: ERR: socket connect(0) failed

If anyone knows how to fix this, please reply.

Sorry if this is a dumb question :/

May i bump... ? well.. i guess its kinda too late now. :P I just wanted to mention that I have been trying different things to get it working and havent had any luck. I really cant figure it out... it just stopped working for no apparent reason.

 

edit: so aparently its not working because of my credentials.. can someone tell me exactly what i need to have for the url, username, and password? do i need to register those somewhere? i never saw anything saying what those came from so i assumed i could just make my own... idk

Assuming you will mine in a pool, you'll need to register in one to get started. I never used minepeon, but for reaper you need the pool's url and port, and a "worker" for the username and password. But as folding, RPi won't be good for mining too, you may get like a dollar in about a year or ten...

I never payed attention to RPi, so I really don't know what you can really do with it, only thing I know is that it's a very low power device. Sometime I'll get one to play around. BTW, since you made your RPi start mining, what khash rate you're gtetting? I'm very curious :)

I don't, and I doubt that many people do. RPi mining is a unknown land, mostly because everybody knows that there is nothing there  :mellow:.
