hello can anybody tell me how to mine XMR on nicehash ?
I got all result rejected by the pool ?


Do you have your pool details?? (I know you said nicehash but i want more details like pool name and port number )

I think it is possible, don't see any reason you can't as long as you have those pool details right.

Off topic, but I think some of you have the answer that I can not find online. Perhaps, I don't make my request correctly ....

That's it, I've now installed nvOC V00019-1.4 and I'm using Papami's WTM_Switch. According to their profitability, I mine HUSH, SEN, and KMD. I mine others, but these three are set by default on Luckpool.org. i have no problem with this pool, but i think i need some explanations. Now, I do not understand or I do not undertsand how to see what I mine on one of these three tokens as long as the system does not undermine them. As soon as the system undermines them again, I can access them again.
Is it because of hybrid PPLNT/PPLNS reward ? if this is the cause of my misunderstanding, i think, i'm not the only, and i suggest it would be more prudent to replace this default pool with another one that does not have this problem.
This at least for those who use profitability switches according to the algorithms? Or at least a small text message from a line about luckpool PPLNT/PPLNS around linked variables.
If I read the definition of PPLNT, it seems to me less profitable than to undermine pools like suprnova at 1% in PPLNS. What do you think ?

Vosk touted last week the merits of luckpool, but he criticize the people just mining for acquiring BTC in other videos. Finally, that's what I understood by watching his chain and videos. So, he criticize all the peoples that undermine on algo-switching like us.
I'm not saying he's wrong or he's right, after all, he's got his opinion that he's built over time, but just that we have to take a closer look at what we're mining and HOW we do it with which pools and payment methods for pools.

This is far from being a small affair !

Does anyone have saw what he was mined on luckpool when the miner does not mine the chosen coins in WTM at the moment you try to know how many you have already mined ?

Sorry for my bad english or using globish by google translate.

Any one has kworker high cpu usage ?
Any idea how to solve it ?


 
Code:
PID USER      PR  NI    VIRT    RES    SHR S  %CPU %MEM     TIME+ COMMAND
 1797 root      20   0       0      0      0 S  44.9  0.0   0:53.41 kworker/3:16

 6751 m1        20   0  0.170t 1.165g 0.982g S   5.6 15.0   1:27.05 ethminer


My rig with 13 1060 had a very high cpu load. Moved power limit from 75W to 95W and load went down form 6-10 to 1.8-2.5. No perfect but much better.

Good call, Thanks a lot.
Will give it a shot.

Edit
Thanks a lot mate, you saved my day.
So I raised 5 steps at a time, at 85 load average get to 1.5-1.8, went up to 90, 95, 100 and load went up too.
So 85 is the sweet spot for me.

Code:
Load Average: 1.60 1.83 1.83

Happy...
so what was your PL and load average before modification?
Load average was over 4 with power limit of 75 on core i5 6400 cpu

Very rare... my rig has a g3900. I think a i5 should not get that load.

Exactly, That was making me mad.

now :
Code:
load average: 0.68, 1.27, 1.51


Ideal load would be <2? I just checked for my 1060 rig (x10 cards) and it's anywhere from 2.1-3.5 -- Should I bump up my PL (78W now)? Not really too familiar with linux, so what does a high system load lead to (i.e. instability, decreased longevity, etc)?

Can someone please provide a proper technique for re-IPing an nvOC 19-1.4 box through SSH?


==============
Most of my rigs are remote. I identify them, both locally and on pools, by IP, as I use the IP address as worker name scheme in 1bash.

What I can't do, however, when upgrading to a different nvOC or rxOC build, is change the IP address without putting a monitor on the box and using the GUI.

I've tried multiple online guides meant for Ubuntu 16, as well as other variants, and can't seem to get it right.


Thanks, in advance!

kk003_telegram has code to to send public ip in case of changed (don't know if you need this feature in case your new ip is dynamic)

In case you don't want DHCP here is a guide.

A example for local static ip:
sudo nano /etc/network/interfaces

Code:
# interfaces(5) file used by ifup(8) and ifdown(8)
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

auto enp0s31f6
iface enp0s31f6 inet static
address 192.168.0.243
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 192.168.0.1
dns-nameservers 192.168.0.1 8.8.8.8

then stop network manager:
Code:
sudo systemctl stop network-manager.service

Remove it from system startup:
Code:
sudo systemctl disable network-manager.service

Check it has been stopped and removed:
Code:
sudo systemctl status network-manager.service

Synchronizing state of network-manager.service with SysV init with /lib/systemd/systemd-sysv-install...

Note this lines:

I usually restart system after this type of modifications and re-check again to ensure everything is working like I want.

Let me know if I misunderstood some thing.  

Update: I assume you know how to connect to your rigs using ssh and have a well configured router if you are behind one

A few updates I've need to do since installing 1.4 that may help others:

Many errors in my syslog referencing timeout waiting for device - There is a hardcoded Sandisk drive in /etc/fstab that should be commented out:
Code:
UUID=55184403759586FB /mnt/55184403759586FB auto nosuid,nodev,nofail,x-gvfs-show,ro 0 0
/dev/disk/by-id/usb-SanDisk_Cruzer_Blade_4C530001260812105231-0:0-part1 /mnt/usb-SanDisk_Cruzer_Blade_4C530001260812105231-0:0-part1 auto nosuid,nodev,nofail,x-gvfs-show,ro 0 0

Also, if you adjust wattage limits into the triple digits (more than 100w) the temp script seems to throw issues now.  Changing:
Code:
echo -n 117.00| tail -c -5 | head -c -3

to

Code:
echo -n 117.00| tail -c -6 | head -c -3

seems to bring things back to normal.

Still seeing lower hashrates than I did on version 1.1, due to cards using about 80% of their available power limit and not sure why.  Also seeing hostname errors and plenty of small other things on a vanilla build (literally just changed 5 items in 1bash) - v1.1 was rock solid, and while I love the idea of these new features, I value stability of mining operation above all else and it seems like we're going backwards a bit on that front.

Good catches. Especially the fstab issue. I just commented it out of my rigs and am in the process of rebooting (just to be sure).

I think I can help you with the hostname issue. You will find that the hostname is m1-desktop in one place and 19_1_4 in another. Check these files and modify with whatever hostname you want:

Code:
/etc/hostname
/etc/hosts

After changing hostname, a reboot is required.

Thanks.

kworker is kernel worker, assigned tasks for kernel to process. i was researching a bit about this high usage but there's so much info to go trough... i postpone it for when i find more spare time Wink
apparently this problem affects ubuntu more than other distros and has been known for years but not resolved yet.
sometimes it's very high cpu usage, sometimes drops to normal values...
Yup, I read a lot about it since last night
Mostly they suggest to check system interrupts and disable them on start up
the weird part was all my interrupts was 0

It appears to be part of gnome-session but I am not yet familiar enough with Ubuntu to find it. I see the auto login setup in /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf but I don't see anything launching that explicitly in .bashrc or .profile. What am I missing?

in nautilus (the file manager) enable show hidden files and check the files starting with dot, you might find the answer there Wink

Guake terminal is involved

Yes. I found gnome-terminal.desktop and guake:guake.desktop in /home/m1/.config/autostart but I am still not putting all of the pieces of the puzzle together yet. I don't see any mention of 2unix being launched there.

Fullzero said there is a guake special profile for nvoc. Sorry have not more info to share :-(
