Hey what does it mean when it says camatible GPU false ?

It means that the computer does not have any (dedicated) GPU, meaning it cannot mine GPU coins.

It means that the computer does not have any (dedicated) GPU, meaning it cannot mine GPU coins.

Thank you for replying, does that mean this will not work and mining will occur? How long (on average) does it take to see any result ?

It means that no GPU mining will be done (since there's no GPU), if you have a CPU miner configured as well (such as a Monero miner) then that will still mine. How long it takes for a miner to appear on your pool depends on your hashrate and what the share difficulty of the pool is.

Also I cant see it on the web panel, no miners are found. Have I done something wrong? This tool is really cool by the way!

It's like UnamSanctam is saying. If you are doing only GPU mining, then no mining will ever happen on that computer, since there is no compatible GPU. However if you also set up CPU mining, then it will mine. For the WebPanel to work you need to insert your API endpoint url when building the miner, you can read more about that in the wiki here, or at the readme file here.

If the miner is configured correctly with the WebPanel, I don't know if it will connect to the WebPanel if there is no compatible GPU. It might, but then with the status "Error" or "Not enough free VRAM" (most likely the first).

Does your miner show up in your checker? It should show up in your web panel if a miner is running. If a miner is running but not showing up inside your web panel then make sure that the URL is correct and that your database folder and file (db folder and unamwebpanel.db file inside that) is writeable.
