ndorf: thanks that solved the issue :D

the non corrupt blockchain was in /root/.bitmonero

Steven_M
Hi all :-)
-
Steven_M
I've heard of hardware wallets, but are there hardware nodes and mining devices, so that you don't have to use a computer for running a node and mining?
-
niocbrrrrrr
specialized mining hardware is an asic so that doesn't apply to monero as the best bang for your buck is a cpu
-
niocbrrrrrr
for nodes people will run them on pine64 or rasp pi
-
Steven_M
niocbrrrrrr: I would've thought a pi, would overheat too much. My laptop gets quite hot syncing sometimes (especially if I've missed a few days).
-
niocbrrrrrr
the idea is to keep it running all the time which might not be convenient with a laptop
-
niocbrrrrrr
once synced the resources required are very low
-
niocbrrrrrr
I bought a cheap desktop with an SSD to run my node and a few other things
-
niocbrrrrrr
was too painful on my old HDD
-
gingeropolous
yeah, its fun to build the pine64 etc, but the pcs u can get from major retailers for 400$ can do the job fine
-
gingeropolous
if you haven't gone all tin foil hat with the backdoors
-
gingeropolous
all right, im feelin kinda dandy. lesse if i can get this peer thing goin
-
Steven_M
Okay :-)
-
gingeropolous
oh wow aeons chain is only 8 gb.
-
gingeropolous
ugh i wanna download c++ into my brain like fuckin matrix
-
gingeropolous
hrm, perhaps bash is fine because of the folks that would run multiple networks
-
ndorf
selsta: glad to hear it, hope you got the user to move it over to his regular home dir and chown, rather than continue running as root :)
-
ndorf
gingeropolous: downloading C++ to your brain? sounds like a cool idea until you realize you have to delete things like "how to use a knife and fork" to make room
-
guernsey
hello
-
guernsey
is here any monero folk willing to help on how to insert tx version 2 from the begining of the chain
-
guernsey
for some reason tx version is always 1 even if changes are made on basic.h or tx_utils
-
guernsey
even after starting with hf_version >8
-
Steven_M
Can somebody help guernsey please? I don't have the expertise.
-
guernsey
there are folks that can help but i dont there is no much will
-
guernsey
and for them is not serius effort is nothing but
-
guernsey
they lack will
-
moneromooo
I'm sure I'd be totally fine forgetting about some people to make room for something nicer.
-
guernsey
your believes, mine different
-
guernsey
is anyone else here willing to help
-
Steven_M
guernsey: I wish I could, but I can't. Sorry.
-
guernsey
thnx anyway for your good will at least!
-
Steven_M
guernsey: you're welcome. :-)

Adreik
Is there any freeze/thaw/frozen equivalent for an RPC wallet? There does not seem to be any documentation for it:
web.getmonero.org/resources/developer-guides/wallet-rpc.html
-
moneromooo
Looks like not. Easy to add.
-
Adreik
There is no RPC command, or it exists and the docs need updating?
-
moneromooo
There is no RPC for it.
-
Adreik
Should I add an enhancement request on the github?
-
moneromooo
Sure.
-
Steven_M
Adreik: may I PM you with a follow-up question about our conversation the other night?
-
Adreik
You had an issue with a remote node right? TBH I don't know all that much about how that works
-
Steven_M
Goodnight all. :-)
-
guernsey
goodnight
-
Adreik
Say, is there a reason that a lot of the functions for searching up outputs in the wallet use specifically key_image instead of one-time pubkey?
-
moneromooo
You can check the git log to see if anything is mentioned. I think it was just arbitrary.
-
moneromooo
Oh, possibly also that there was a key image lookup already, to spot spends. Not sure if that was a reason but it might have.
-
Adreik
If you are using a view only wallet then you won't know the key image without an export_outputs/transfer file/Import_outputs/export_key_images/transfer file/import_key_images. So isn't at least allowing the use of the *other* unique output identifier strictly better than not?
-
moneromooo
Yes.
-
moneromooo
Pff, always confusing with negative questions. It is better.
-
Adreik
I believe the discord IRC relay system has broken, for whoever owns that
-
asymptotically
Adreik: i think it got kickbanned
-
moneromooo
It got kicked or silenced I think, due to some jerk spamming "subscribe" shit.
-
moneromooo
Just needs an op to undo.
-
zib
Has there been any change in the recent versions? I can't sync from scratch with 10GB mem anymore. Gets killed after swapping out (8gb + 2gb swap).
-
zib
in regards to memory ofc :D
-
moneromooo
Very unexpected.
-
zib
its on freebsd so maybe not so common
-
zib
pid 3607 (monerod), jid 0, uid 1001, was killed: out of swap space
-
zib
Ran out of mem at 64% sync and then now again at 72% . But i just keep restarting it and eventuelly it will get to 100 :D
-
moneromooo
Run "sync_info" from time to time, see how much data it's got downloaded waiting for processing.
-
zib
ok
-
moneromooo
It should stop at about 100 MB, roughly.
-
zib
498 spans, 1392.27 MB
-
moneromooo
That's likely the reason then...
-
zib
yeah guess it just keeps dling and queuing up.
-
zib
1.8gb now heh. Going up fast.
-
moneromooo
Set the dl limit to 10 for now. Reset once it's gone through the queue.
-
moneromooo
And file a bug with a level 2 log. A minute or so will be enough.
-
moneromooo
set_log 2
-
zib
ok will do
-
moneromooo
Get the log before setting the dl limit.
-
zib
yep
-
zib
hmm which option is the dl-limit? --block-sync-size?
-
moneromooo
That's a command line option. If you quit, it'll forget about that 1.8 GB it's already got.
-
moneromooo
Use... limit_down IIRC ?
-
zib
ah just limiting the speed
-
moneromooo
I assume you didn't monkey with --block-download-max-size, right ?
-
zib
no. No args except rpc stuff
-

<rbrunner7> Don't spoil all the fun already so early on ...

vtnerd: fyi:
monero-project/monero #6671 (you might have a better fix)

moneromooo
er, wrong chan
-
xmrmatterbridge
<rbrunner7> I don't remember our coin icon being so ... bland ... at CMC:
coinmarketcap.com/currencies/monero
-
amuro
Any safe remote node IP and port?
-
poobie[m]
no. you are never safe :^)
-
Mochi101
rbrunner CMC has been changing up coin icons.
-
amuro
Which remote node is relatively safer? It takes too long to sync
-
moneromooo
print_pl publicrpc
-
moneromooo
You may want to set your node to bootstrap mode. You'll be using one of those while your node syncs. Once synced, your node will be used.
-
moneromooo
monerod --bootstrap-daemon-address <ADDRESS>
-
KrishnAncap[m]
yeah new cmc icon is a bit gross. what's up with that?
-
KrishnAncap[m]
is it discrete agenda to turn people out of our freedom coin?
-
KrishnAncap[m]
design can be powerful
-
KrishnAncap[m]
or have they done so to all coins
-
fluffypony
you can't really force them to use a particular logo
-
fluffypony
but you can certainly contact them and complain bitterly about it
-
xmrmatterbridge
<rbrunner7> Having a quick glance I could not see a single other changed coin icon although I know these a lot less well of course.
-
yanmaani
eww what the hell?
-
yanmaani
maybe it's just an intern

xmrpow
Is there a way to skip block verification for stagenet daemon sync?
-
moneromooo
You could comment out some of the heavy stuff I guess. Range proof checks for one.
-
moneromooo
Cryptonight.
-
moneromooo
IIRC that's a bit more annoying though. I did it in the past.
-
xmrpow
I think I would have to mess with the code in order to do that?
-
yanmaani
of course
-
yanmaani
moneromooo: Couldn't you just return valid for everything?
-
yanmaani
stub out the sig validation function and replace it with {return true}
-
xmrpow
But there is no monerod arguement?
-
moneromooo
You could return valid for everything.
-
yanmaani
are you the guy who wants to make some obscure modification to monero?
-
moneromooo
We could have a monerod --autopwn I guess.
-
xmrpow
yanmaani: Do you mean me?
-
xmrpow
monermoo: That would be cool.
-
moneromooo
Well, there's already ethereum, which I understand checks close to nothing.
-
anicow
lol
-
gingeropolous
so i think i need to grep the logs for "block found" ...
-
gingeropolous
for solo mining. gah. i have no patience
-
moneromooo
I did it for you. No hits.
-
moneromooo
(sorry)
-
moneromooo
OK, do it anyway. Would be cool if you got lucky.
-
gingeropolous
:)
-
gingeropolous
i think thats what shows up. there's sure lot of things in the code with block or found though
-
yanmaani
it's a shame there's no working p2pool for monero
-
moneromooo
"Found block "
-
Mochi101
Congratulations moneromooo
-
Mochi101
:P
-
moneromooo
:D
-
Mochi101
ohhh... that's just the message
-
Mochi101
;)
-
Mochi101
It'd be pretty exciting to mine a solo block.
-
Mochi101
Might have been more exciting 2 years ago... but hey... Still today too.
