Downloaded this and running it under wine in Ubuntu, added the nodes as far as I can tell but its not syncing up. Its saying I have one active connection to the Protoshares network. Seems to be falling further behind. Any ideas?

Do you update protosharesd to 0.2.0? http://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=370.0
Try nodes from: http://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=172.0

Sorry, never mind.  I missed the "Help>Debug Window>Console" part.  I'm good. :)

I just dl'd Protoshares-QT for Mac.  I'm a little lost.  I get this same error "No block source available" but I don't follow where/how I can add these nodes.  Any help?

Cheers,

Instead setgenerate true, run mining from menu

Just to clarify: do I need to setgenerate true to receive pts?

Oh! Ya that seemed to have been accepted. I tried restarting the client but got the same "no block source available" message. Should I be editing one of the files inside the protoshares folder instead?

Run ProtoClient as protoshares-qt.exe -connect=cryptoseed.cloudapp.net:80
You can do it by creating a .bat file or change the shortcut if you run it using shortcut.

I'm not entirely sure how to do that. I tried entering variations of the code into the Console but always came up with "Method not found." Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

It's codes not for console, for console try:
addnode cryptoseed.cloudapp.net:80 add

If you have problems with ProtoShares network discovery add node cryptoseed.cloudapp.net to params of the wallet, example:
Code: [Select]
protoshares-qt.exe -addnode=cryptoseed.cloudapp.netor to protoshares.conf, example:

Code: [Select]
addnode=cryptoseed.cloudapp.net
For everybody behind crazy firewalls use:
Code: [Select]
protoshares-qt.exe -connect=cryptoseed.cloudapp.net:80
