How to use phoenix with namecoin?

I've setup the bitcoin.conf to:

rpcuser=userme
rpcpassword=passme
rpcport=8336
#daemon=1
#server=1

Then run phoenix with:

phoenix.exe -u http://userme:passme@localhost:8336/ -k poclbm VECTORS BFI_INT AGGRESSION=10 WORKSIZE=128 DEVICE=0 FASTLOOP=false

The GPU goes to ~280MHash/s, but # of accepts stays at "0" (same with rejects). Is somethign misconfigured? I found the OpenCL miner works, but for some reason phoenix is giving me issues.

thanks in advance.

It will give you "accepted" only when block is found.
That's because of pools are giving work with difficulty set to "1", while with solo mining you have a current network difficulty.
So you have to be patient and watch to an empty screen, or join a pool and have smaller result, but in less time :)
