highly suggest you to join a pool.

Low payouts are normal if you aren't running a whole lot of machines. Remember, your payout is proportional to the amount of computing power that you're contributing to the pool. You're competing with everyone else in the pool for a piece of what the pool earns, which is proportional to how much computing power the pool is computing to the network.

I mined for a whole day on a pool and got a little over 1 PTS is that normal with the difficulty now?

Is there a mining difficulty calculator?  Suppose I wanted to know how many weeks it would take to get a 50/50 chance of mining 1 block at 100 cpm, is there any way to figure this out?

Thank people.
I am trying Coyote Miner now. but it seems to be down at this moment  ::)

You'll need to join a pool to realistically mine anything. The overall computation power in the pools is crazy high, and you're competing against multiple of those.

There's nothing wrong. The difficulty increase has made it very very difficult to mine solo. I too haven't found a block since.

Hello all,

Great to see things are moving here, love the Keyhotee project  :)
I got a question about solo mining. I am mining for almost 3 days now, using ubuntu 13.10 64bit and still found nothing.
Using a I5 running 4 threads
Now I am wondering if I am doing something wrong.

Any help will be appreciated.
