Hello,

newbie here, thanks for patience.

I start 0.5.0 without wallet.dat. It creates 100 new keys. I then 
encrypt them. It should be now bug free and totally secure, so I back 
the wallet up. I then click "new address", it doesn't use the old 2-100 
addresses, instead generates a new batch, because it assumes the old 
ones are leaked, but in fact they are not. I receive funds to my new 2nd 
address (which is now not backed up). I lose the new wallet. Restore 
from backup. Bitcoins lost forever?

Sorry if false alarm, thanks.

Gavin,

 Where is my "Bitcoin Address" within this new QT version?

 The windows appear but, I can't find my bitcoin address.

Cheers,
Thiago

Hi,

 Testing the 0.5.0 in Linux, I see a strange behaviour:

 1- Open qt-client, blockchain stops the downloading at 10%... Wait 30
minutes... not reach 11%...

 2- Close and reopen the qt-client, blockchain start again at 0%... Normal!?

 3- Now the download of the blockchain is working, reach 15% and growing...

 I have a open firewall for the Bitcoin protocol. My 0.4.0 client works
just fine, with more than 30 connections at the same machine (but another
Linux user).

 Also, where can I find the number of connections using new Bitcoin-QT?

Thanks!
Thiago

Guys,

 The bidcoin-qt for Linux does not have the Bitcoin icon at the Desktop
Pager (Ubuntu Oneiric 11.10).

 This is a cosmetic change.

Best,
Thiago

I've noticed this same behavior with 0.5 release candidates.  I remember
seeing it with 0.4 also, so I think it's not a regression.  I haven't yet
pinned down the cause.  It would be nice to fix; especially for those
downloading the blockchain for the first time.

 Also, where can I find the number of connections using new Bitcoin-QT?

Hover over the signal icon in the lower right corner.  The icon looks like
a cellphone signal indicator.  The number of connections is displayed in a
tooltip.

Re: [Bitcoin-development] Release candidates: versions 0.4.1 and 0.5

[Jordan Mack]

I'm getting an intermittent crashes on bitcoin-qt.exe when doing RPC 
commands. I seem to be able to get it to occur most frequently when I 
send a bunch of RPC commands in rapid succession. I have never 
encountered it with "getbalance", but I have with some other commands. 
Sending a single letter as the command seems to trigger the crash most 
often.

I was unable to generate the crash using 0.4.1.

I was unable to find an issue logged for this, although I wonder if it 
is related to https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/639

Can anyone make suggestion on any other debug information I can gather 
before submitting an issue?
