Hi all,

Has anyone incorporated ethminer 0.11.0 into this nvOC release? I managed to download it and can get it to run, but have been having the hardest time getting any results. I am running all GTX 1060 6GB cards (13 per rig), but am still getting about 21.5 Mh/s with mem OC.

I may not be the most adept at editing the 1bash though, and was having a difficult time finding a list of the flags (ethminer --help told me that ethminer wasn't a valid program).

Any thoughts?

U dont have to put any miner os nvOC, miner is in nvOC. For eth u can use genoil as far i know is the one u can grab more mh/s per gpu
Copy past your 1bash file ( only the first part ) here and i will help you Wink

Thank you. My apologies if I was not clear. I have been able to use the Genoil already in nvOC 18 (it automatically executes through my editing of 1bash). I have also managed to successfully download the later version of ethminer, which is supposed to get more Mh/s for GTX 1060 cards (which I have). The challenges I have are:
- These use different flags for the optimization.
- I cannot find a list of the flags, and going to the ethminer directory and typing "ethminer --help" tells me that ethminer is not a program (even though I can definitely get 0.11.0 to execute when pointing to it in 1bash, or simply dropping the new ethminer into the Genoil-U folder).

So really, I am hoping to find if anyone has had success configuring this later miner version and gotten the increased performance.

Any help would be awesome.

Adding the new ethminer with individual GPU output has already been requested by another member.  I will compile it (probably) tomorrow and tell you how it does / upload the files.

In the meantime:

On the ethminer executable you copied to the Genoil-U directory, open guake and type:

Code:
chmod 755

with a space after 755 then drag the ethminer executable you copied to the Genoil-U directory to the guake terminal and let go.  It should add an absolute path to it after the chmod 755

press enter then try running ethminer again.

Thank you! I will try that this evening and share anything worthwhile that I learn.

As a follow up, I just tried this and unfortunately the result is the same:
--
m1@m1-desktop:~/eth/Genoil-U$ ls
ethminer
m1@m1-desktop:~/eth/Genoil-U$ chmod 755 '/home/m1/eth/Genoil-U/ethminer'
m1@m1-desktop:~/eth/Genoil-U$ ethminer
ethminer: command not found
--

I tried removing the single quotes as well, but same result.

Have you tried this?

Right click the ethminer; properties; go to permissions tab and check the tick box which precisely says 'allow to execute the file's and try then?

Yes - great idea, but I tried that too.

@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

Linux FOREVER! Resistance is futile!!!

I got a random problem in one of my rigs and that is a random GPU wont get fully utilized and watch dog keep restarting the miner almost every 20-30 minutes.
Some times its GPU3, some times 0, some times 2 and ...
Only way is to reboot the rig and it will be ok most of the time.
Any idea what could cause it ?
Is there a reboot call in the system in case miner get started too many times in a given time? If not it could be a good option to add.
Example if miner restarted 3 times in less than an hour reboot the rig.

Another issue I faced is it takes so long to open nvidia-settings on both my rigs, long as 10-20 minutes after click it, is it normal ?
Where should I check for the problem?

If it is a different GPU at different times; my guess is that the image is bad.  I would try using another USB key or SSD and seeing if you have the same problem.

It is not normal to take 10+ minutes to open nvidia-settings.

Also what are your OC / Powerlimit settings and what GPUs are on this rig?
2 rigs, both with same config 6x1070, one shows those symptoms one works perfect.
Very mild oc :
Power: 130
Clock:  50
Mem: 250

Both rigs takes long time to open nvidia settings ... any idea why ?

I'll try the to use new 1bash if I get unstable results in the future since now I had the rig up for over 28 hours. Also does the autoreboot in the SSH only mode works as it supposed to?

Hi,

autoreboot work fine on SSH mode, my rig reboot every 24 hours, i commented /etc/fstab my rig reboot in less then 30sec.

Fullzero i noticed something, if u run 1bash at root user, after u have to apply validation on rm file. Not so much important that from a miss leading from me, on launching 1bash at root user. Just for let u to know.

Thanks for you amazing work to as usual ...

You would have to add Maxximus007's flag for root as well as m1 to avoid needing to enter a password.  Why do you run 1bash as root?

I dont take notice about what user i am when i launched it Wink That only reason why ^^
I think i dont miss flag, but after my mistake root owned file so file get write protected and have to validate by hand to be deleted, this thing only happen one time after i launched 1bash as root user.
Is just a feedback not a real problem here ! Thanks for your attention as always Wink

Probably Ubuntu is the best one for it.

While doing another debug, I just realised replacing the 'bn.h' file in /usr/local/include/openssl/ to the one from 'openssl-1.0.1e' version for compiling the 'krnlx' version of ccminer (for mining 'sigt'). So it might've caused the issue of handshake error. Am I right thinking so? I haven't made a backup of that file, can someone please share that file so that I will try and conclude it.

That's an ancient version of OpenSSL.  If you have it installed on your rig (as opposed to just extracting a header file from the source tarball), it may have overwritten your root certificates with older, possibly no-longer-valid certificates.  That could cause the problem you're seeing with the switcher querying Coinbase.

probably! I've tried so many different ways to compile that ccminer! I might've messed it up!

What would be the best possible workaround going forward!! just install latest open ssl?? using commands or from the Ubuntu app store?

That'd definitely be advisable for the bugfixes, but since newer versions of OpenSSL don't install certificates, there should be another package that restores the current certificates.  On Gentoo, that would be app-misc/ca-certificates, which was last revised in November 2016.  I'm not sure what Ubuntu calls its equivalent package, as I'm not as familiar with it (the only Ubuntu box I have is my nvOC rig).

Thanks for the reply, I don't think I will be able to go back to latest version with all the required certificates, I will go for a fresh installation of nvOC 18, hope it works Smiley
