Is it only for AMD GPUs?

New version is out - 1.31 from April 4th

You can do it yourself:


Updating Miners to Latest Versions

Update ethOS.
Make sure your GPUs are not in a crashed state. It is best to proceed immediately after a reboot.
Run: sudo update-miners && sudo service ethos-miner-monitor restart
Search Google for your miner version to get configuration options that can be set in /home/ethos/*.stub.conf files
You can check your current miner versions with cat /var/run/ethos/miner.versions

The following miners are currently available to update:

ccminer 2.2.5-tpruvot-et
claymore 11.4
claymore-xmr 11.2
claymore-zcash 12.6
dstm-zcash 0.6.0.1
ethminer 0.14.0.dev2
optiminer-zcash 2.1.2
sgminer-gm 5.5.5-a
NOTE: If you have many rigs, use the above as a guideline for your own distribution method.
If any problem occurs and you would like to revert, run: ethos-update reupdate

can someone show me a local conf file to mine raven?  tia

I have strange problem.

Ethos 1.3
Rig with 5 x 570 4GB

I was testing ethos with this rig. I use usb stick for testing. I make that everything works and than I make ethos on ssd and copy local.conf file to ssd.

I get error message - invalid miner.

Than i copy text from simple.conf from http://ethosdistro.com/pool.txt and just add

globalminer claymore on top of local.conf and I still get that invalid miner.

What I do wrong?

hi all, i've made alternative stats panel with integrated calculator for ethOS. You're welcome to use it, as i made it public at https://ethosdash.com
I'm planning to add UI based editor for config file shortly.
Your feedback is much appreciated, I'll answer any questions for how and what.
Cheers everyone and happy mining)

thx for reply, but this is not the answer what i look.
Do you know why i can't install google's remote desktop?

If you have a computer on the same network you don't need it in ethOS, you just need it on that computer. I use OSX's desktop sharing or whatever it's called (built into screen sharing, just requires some tweaking) so when I leave town I just log into the gui of my server and then use the ethOS dashboard links to shell-in-a-box. Or you can just ssh into your ethOS machines from anywhere, I just find this method easier...

Not sure what cards you are using, core and power settings vary between AMD and Nvidia, but for memclock you would definitely put:

globalmem 2000

Though I've found that varies too, for my cards it seems to be more effective to use full values for AMD and + or - for Nvidia, so if your base memory clock is, say, 1600, you would put:

globalmem +400

You can also break it down card to card, which is what the sample format shows, but I only do that if I have cards with different memory types in the rig, the variation isn't worth the trial and error for me (ymmv).

As far as power limiting goes, though, I can't give you specifics but for AMD you would play more with the core/globalcore setting, for Nvidia the globalpowertune. For ethash (Ethereum and similar coins), I have my 1060s (Nvidia) set like this:

globalmem +450                                                                                                                                          
globalpowertune 75

Which, on my Samsung memory cards, gives me about 22mh/s and 75W power draw.

For my 580s (AMD), my settings are:

globalcore 1200                                                                                                                                        
globalmem 2200                                                                                                                                          
globalpowertune 2

Which gives me about 28mh/s and rough estimate of 115W per card (harder to figure out because the dashboard only reports voltage for AMD).

These settings will MOST LIKELY NOT be optimal for your cards, but they are a place to start if you need one (though I suggest starting lower for memory, higher for power settings and doing some testing). Subsequently you can figure out your card's optimal settings using tools in windows and then use them as a starting point, and back off a little if there is any instability. Good luck!

EDIT: Also note that you will want to play with these settings if you switch algos, as each algo demands are different.

I have RX470 from Asus.
I have tried these settings but no hope. I get 23-24 mh/s instead of windows' 29mh/s.
