How do you get the number of blocks found by your miner?

Thank you for the suggestion for use a pool. after getting nothing in about 48 hours with the wallet I went along and used an optimized miner with a pool ( qrk.coinmine.pl ) and I now see it actually mining...
Do you know of a working 32bit miner?

<p>I installed quarkcoin-qt and wanted to see if I can get it to mine any quarks.</p>

<p>I opened the necessary port and it synchronized.</p>

<p>I opened its console window and connected to the network using </p>

addnode 218.30.67.157 onetry

<p>and then used <code>setgenerate true -1</code> to (supposedly) put it into mining mode...</p>

<p>calling <code>getmininginfo</code> it returns</p>

# mining for quark

(Asked by: username_0 on 2013-12-02)

I installed username_3-qt and wanted to see if I can get it to mine any quarks.

I opened the necessary port and it synchronized.

I opened its console window and connected to the network using

```
addnode 54.193.30.6 onetry
addnode 54.224.185.35 onetry
addnode 54.200.66.187 onetry
addnode 54.201.33.23; onetry
addnode 86.183.230.58; onetry
addnode 119.252.247.163 onetry
addnode 218.30.67.157 onetry

```

and then used `setgenerate true -1` to (supposedly) put it into mining mode...

calling `getmininginfo` it returns

```
{
"blocks" : 420230,
"currentblocksize" : 2978,
"currentblocktx" : 3,
"difficulty" : 2856.00406965,
"errors" : "",
"generate" : true,
"genproclimit" : -1,
"hashespersec" : 74772,
"pooledtx" : 3,
"testnet" : false
}

```

Where can I read about the meaning of all this information?

Is there anything else I need to do? or should I just wait now?
And If I only have to wait then how long until I am supposed to see anything?

At this point, all you need to do is wait. As for the getmininginfo...

* blocks = number of blocks mined
* currentblocksize = size of blocks in bytes
* currentblocktx = number of transactions included in the block
* difficulty = how hard it is to mine
* errors = any error messages (you have none which is good)
* generate = if you are mining or not (true = you are mining)
* hashespersec = how fast you are mining
* pooledtx = number of transactions in the memory pool
* testnet = if you are running on testnet or not (false = you are mining real coins, not test coins)
