Hi Patrik,
What linux OS do you recommend for the linux remote agent?
I have been running nvOC 19-2 which is a free and has easily configurable GPU power and clocks, as well as excellent fan control.
I tried a plain install of Ubuntu, but lost all the neat GPU control features of nvOC, but did get current CUDA 10 and latest drivers.
I also got a few rigs running HIVE, but I have not had much luck getting the remote agent installed on those.
Main issue I have with nvOC, is that I'm on CUDA 9.2.148, and this don't support a lot of the recent miners which are all expecting version 10.
Are there plans for the Linux version of remote agent to come with its own linux distro at some point?
Hi,
With fan control, is the a fan/temperature curve you are referring to here? For example that you define 50C -> 40% fan, 60C -> 65% fan, 70C -> 87% fan and so on?
Installing Remote Agent on HiveOS should work fine, I think there are a number of users running this combination and would probably be my recommendation if you want to get started fast. Did you get any specific error messages?
The automatic download feature is currently favoring the CUDA10 miners in most cases. Although you manually can point to a different version, I do have plans to make it easier to make this selection in Awesome Miner. The goal is to be able to say that you favor CUDA 9.2 and then Awesome Miner will automatically download those versions where available.
There are currently no plans to have a complete mining OS in the near future.
