Greetings!

Thanks for nice mining distro Cheesy

My external HD is where I boot from, and since im happy with how it works, Im wondering how could i move this external HD image to my internal M2.1 SSD,
 but I Also have windows on this SSD.
Can i copy it somehow and keep having dual boot, or just copy without dual boot..


Unless you are very comfortable manually editing partitions; I don't recommend dual booting from your m2.  You can image the m2 and overwrite the current install; but I don't recommend this as; there is no need to use an m2 for mining.  A USB key or your external HDD should be sufficient.  Note v0019 applies osnwt's fix to remove an unused swap significantly reducing boot time.  Most of my USB keys boot in under 45 seconds; SSDs in under 25.

Where do i get v0019?!

See this...

I have had an overwhelming number of pm's.

I don't have all the features I want to include for v0019 done; there are still a lot of requests and contributions ( notably from lost_post and _Parallax_ ) that still need to be added.

The spread of members using v0017 or v0018 with various levels of updates; is making it harder to answer questions / help members.  Rather than add another update with XMR stak GPU support tonight; I am going to release v0019 as it currently is tomorrow night: after making a few more changes tonight / tomorrow during the day.

Because your temp limit wont let them get higher power.
It seems your temp limit is 70.
Either give them cooler conditions by external fans and ... or higher your temp limit.
I got that, will try it and let you know if you were correct!

thanks for idea.

Hi!

Could you please explain how to set Individual power limit over 200w? for example 250w?
And what is the top limit for this param in 1bash ?

Cuz I am planning to buy some 1080 Ti and they are 280w

Thank you.

go to this section of 1bash:
Code:
INDIVIDUAL_POWERLIMIT="NO"   	# YES NO

# Set individual powerlimits here if INDIVIDUAL_POWERLIMIT="YES"

# or if using Maxximus007_AUTO_TEMPERATURE_CONTROL

#######################################################################################


# Maxximus007_AUTO_TEMPERATURE_CONTROL


# Note you MUST set individual powerlimits if using Maxximus007_AUTO_TEMPERATURE_CONTROL

INDIVIDUAL_POWERLIMIT_0=75

INDIVIDUAL_POWERLIMIT_1=75

INDIVIDUAL_POWERLIMIT_2=75

INDIVIDUAL_POWERLIMIT_3=75

INDIVIDUAL_POWERLIMIT_4=75

INDIVIDUAL_POWERLIMIT_5=75

INDIVIDUAL_POWERLIMIT_6=75

INDIVIDUAL_POWERLIMIT_7=75

INDIVIDUAL_POWERLIMIT_8=75

INDIVIDUAL_POWERLIMIT_9=75

INDIVIDUAL_POWERLIMIT_10=75

INDIVIDUAL_POWERLIMIT_11=75

INDIVIDUAL_POWERLIMIT_12=75

INDIVIDUAL_POWERLIMIT_13=75

ensure

Code:
INDIVIDUAL_POWERLIMIT="YES"

and the corresponding GPU has the correct wattage setting.

Code:
INDIVIDUAL_POWERLIMIT_0=280

Hello, I've done exactly what you said:
Code:
INDIVIDUAL_POWERLIMIT="YES"
INDIVIDUAL_POWERLIMIT_2=215

BUT what i see mining ZEC coin is:
Temp: GPU0: 68C GPU1: 70C GPU2: 69C GPU3: 69C GPU4: 69C GPU5: 69C GPU6: 69C
GPU0: 497 Sol/s GPU1: 504 Sol/s GPU2: 518 Sol/s GPU3: 517 Sol/s GPU4: 508 Sol/s GPU5: 510 Sol/s GPU6: 512 Sol/s
Total speed: 3566 Sol/s
+-----+-------------+--------------+
| GPU | Power usage |  Efficiency  |
+-----+-------------+--------------+
|  0  |    144W     |  3.45 Sol/W  |
|  1  |    145W     |  3.48 Sol/W  |
|  2  |    193W     |  2.68 Sol/W  |
|  3  |    188W     |  2.75 Sol/W  |
|  4  |    161W     |  3.16 Sol/W  |
|  5  |    166W     |  3.07 Sol/W  |
|  6  |    179W     |  2.86 Sol/W  |
+-----+-------------+--------------+
its always around 193-196, does not get more than that.
These cards are Asus Geforce 1080 ROG Strix A8G

Just wanted to mine Musicoin on MPH and noticed some authentication error
If any one wants to mine it on MPH you should edit 1bash MUSICADDR lines too.

edit all the lines in 1bash
from :
Code:
MUSICADDR="$MUSIC_ADDRESS/$MUSIC_WORKER"

to :
Code:
MUSICADDR="$MUSIC_ADDRESS.$MUSIC_WORKER"

credits to papampi

fullzero, do you mind putting this link in original post please, i bet it will be useful to lots of users; thanks Smiley
Thanks for mentioning me and giving the credits,
I added an easier solution to that post
for those who dont need/want the swap and dont need to expand their partition.

Option2 :
If you have 16GB USB/SSD/HDD and dont want/need swap partition.
Just open /etc/fstab with
Code:
gksudo gedit /etc/fstab
and add a # before the UUID in swap line
Code:
# swap was on /dev/sda5 during installation
#UUID=cdba7b01-5ae6-4104-9a6e-f723b8bd87ac none            swap    sw              0       0
reboot and have fun.

This is osnwt's suggestion see:

Wow. Thank you dbolivar!

The slow boot time has always been my only issue with nvOC. Especially when I've got a sick riser that I'm hunting for. I commented out the swap line in /etc/fstab and BAM! It was like a rocket ship booting up.

SO loving this OS now. Even more than before! Thank you again FullZero for this awesome OS.

Great!! But don't thank me for identifying this invalid entry in /etc/fstab, it was the merit of another user, as I mentioned, but I forgot his username! Nevertheless, Fullzero is aware of this, and said it will be fixed in v19. Smiley

You can do this on any nvOC or rxOC rig by entering the following in the guake terminal:
Code:
gksu gedit /etc/fstab

then commenting out this line by appending a # to the front of it changing:

Code:
UUID=cdba7b01-5ae6-4104-9a6e-f723b8bd87ac none            swap    sw              0       0

to:

Code:
#UUID=cdba7b01-5ae6-4104-9a6e-f723b8bd87ac none            swap    sw              0       0

then close the gedit and reboot.

I applied this change to the v0019_rc a long time ago when osnwt brought it to my attention:  https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.20492062



Sorry if this was already fixed or is a duplicate report. Didn't read the thread for a long time.

I found that my nvOC system boots too long (around 2 minutes). The cause of that is a swap partition in /etc/fstab that does not exist on USB drive (was /dev/sda5 at install time). After commenting it out a 120 seconds swap disk mount wait time has gone.


Do NOT take credit for other members ideas / fixes.
Taking credit for others suggestions/fixes was not my intention at all.
I am new to your awesome code and noticed how it has a long reboot time, checked the OP and there was no fix for it, so I posted here how I solved it
EvgeniX asked me to write a step by step guide on how I solve the issue here so I wrote it for him how to add swap and expand the partition in this post
Later I thought its good to add an option for those who dont have bigger ssd and just want to disable swap
This is a 140+ thread and a new one like me cant read all the pages and fixes and ideas
Long story short ... I added osnwt name to my post.
Sorry if it seem I wanted to take credit for some one elses idea/fixes.


My Bad, I think its partly my mistake of crediting papampi, but I agree with papampi as there is no link in the OP & searching through this number of pages is not practical at all (though google indexes the website but still not that easy to get to the right solutions sometimes), but like you said, as you have already integrated this in v19 then no point in having instruction on OP.

I will edit my bit and give credits to the right person.

Thanks and sorry for the mess!

I feel like ethminer 0.11.0 gives better hashrate than claymore.
Claymore single gives me 197 MH/s and dual with DCR gives 194 MH/s
While ethminer 0.11.0 is giving 201

is this the correct one ?
https://github.com/ethereum-mining/ethminer/releases
Better to use 0.12.0.dev or 0.11.0 ?

I tried them all and think the newest dev is the best.  Tell me if your experience is different.
On ethminer 0.12.0.dev2 one of my rigs started dropping from full utilization and all 6 GPUs gone to 70-80 % and miner restarted 2 times then I switched to 0.11.0
But on ethminer 0.11.0 its working with no problems.

0.12.0 is only version 0.11.0 edited in the hashrate display.

@fullzero

Desktop mode starts very slowly. Please build a command line version. Thank you very much.


Mate, try this, my RIG starts with in 20 seconds, you won't regret :

=====================================================================================


Can you please make step by step guide? I think it will help a lot of people, Thanks

Sure, will try my best.
First check to see if you have swap enabled or not by free command:
Then:
Open Gparted, it will ask for root password, Locate your drive, you will see a 16gb used space and a big not used at the end,
Right click on the unused partition and create new partition, Type : Swap make the size you want ( 1Gb to ...) and move it to the end of drive.  Apply.
Then right clcik on the primary 16gb partition and resize/move , resize it to the desired (better to give it all). Apply
Now right click on the swap partition and get the info, copy the UUID
open /etc/fstab with
Code:
gksudo gedit /etc/fstab
You will see a line which refers to a swap partition during installation ...
Some thing similar to this :
Code:
# swap was on /dev/sda5 during installation
UUID=cdba7b01-5ae6-4104-9a6e-f723b8bd87ac none            swap    sw              0       0
Now change the UUID with the one you copied from newly made swap partition.
save and close gedit.
now in your  terminal type :
Code:
sudo swapon --all
It will read your fstab and enable the swap partition.
check it with free command in  terminal
Code:
#free
              total        used        free      shared  buff/cache   available
Mem:        8171388     3020388     2637404      142044     2513596     4647472
Swap:       8123388           0     8123388
reboot and it should be all good

============================================================================

Could you release the XMR stak binary you compiled? I would like to start using it with my v0017, dont need the 1bash changes yet.

Trying to compile myself but its not working...
