What makes you think that there's a need for additional RAM?  Top is showing that I'm not using more than about 1.2GB with four cards.  I'll test this weekend on my 6 GPU system, but doubt it would use more than 2GB

Audio controller is enabled by default.

I'm not sure what happens if it is not disabled, but I'd go ahead and disable it. It's a simple process.

I wanted to give some feedback, after a lot of research and feedback from Fullzero I would recommend to anyone that it issuing a 4-6 GPU system to use 8GB of RAM minimum instead of 4GB. I have been running my system now for 5 days and have not had any "random freezes/crashes" even with pushing some OCs in testing the new ver 0017. I think this is something we overlook.

For gigabyte 270 d3

Is audio controller normally disabled from the beg. Or is it always on or?

If you do not disable audio controller, then what happens?

Thanks FullZero..

I currently have
POWERLIMIT="NO" 

POWERLIMIT_WATTS=225

__CORE_OVERCLOCK=0
MEMORY_OVERCLOCK=0

MANUAL_FAN="YES"  

FAN_SPEED=65  #or higher
** However it will go for about 12 to 23 hours and all comes down to 0 sols at which point i have to reboot the system.

If i do as you mentioned Core = 100 and Mem = 900 - it might crash faster - or no?
- i cant find a stable setting, just want this to be auto run.  I have 2 EVGA 1080ti cards running ZEC

Any suggestions?

Anyone tried rigs with mixed cards? So far, 3x 1060 and 3x 1050ti are working stable while I'm having issues with 5x 1050ti and 1x 1070 (Miner constantly crashing with thread exit errors)

Solution, anyone?

Note: rig with 5x1050ti and 1x1070 worked stable for a short period of time once I bumped up the power limit (by 10) and then thread exited with errors and whole rig crashed.

Good, the version number in the topic title 

Hey everyone - whats a good Clock setting for a MSI Z270-A Pro mobo and EVGA 1080ti cards?
- I have tried power limit of 235 with 0 clock and 0 mem = ran for 12 hours then crashed and had to reboot as the sols came down to 0 and power came down to 8w
- now i changed the power limit to NO and clock to -15.

Any suggestions?

Darn, that didn't work. No problem I will just re-image the drive. Only takes about 15 mins
I'm gonna give you 24 hours of mining to your ETH address also. Thanks for making my life easier....

Any way to remotely update from 0016 to 0017?

Hi,
I with great pleasure watch this community! All help each other.
NvOC - a magnificent platform for a mining. There isn't enough informative monitoring of a large number of rigs yet. I would like to pay your attention as it is realized at ethOS. On one page all information on all farms is available. I think it there has to be the first page.
Example: http://virosa.ethosdistro.com/
It would be desirable FAQ on the first page . It is difficult to look for the necessary answers according to all pages
Many thanks for your work and enthusiasm!

Hi there. First af all thanks for this great os. I am new at mining and os systems but i am learning.

I have msi z270 sli plus, 4 asus strix 1060 and 2 zotac 1080 amp. When i try to boot system from usb it is so slow and almost take 2 or 3 minutes and some times system doesn't even boot and i can't figure out why. But when system is boot it is working like a charm. Could you please help me? What should i do?

Btw, sorry for my english.

Perhaps can you put the version number of mOC in the thread title : like that it'll be more easier to see when it change for the reader.

Awesome to hear! Looking forward to seeing how it performs on my rig

Hey Im just getting started with your software and am having some troubles.

I have no problem using nanopool for ethereum but when using ethermine.org I get "READ RESPONSE FAILED: End of File" over and over forever.  Using genoil.

With nanopool my line setting for pool is eth-us-west1.nanopool.org:9999    =works perfect
With ethermine my line says us2.ethermine.org:4444  = i get that error...


I only change this line everything else remains constant. Perfect with nano, no good with ethermine. What am i missing?

Thanks

I have zcash-cli installed on another partition (ubuntu17) my SSD Drive, and i'm running nvOC from a USB. 

While I'm in nvOC, is there a way i can run zcash-cli from that SSD? without installing it again for nvOC

@_Parallax_

will do all of that in a single line
or install byobu then you can run `sudo purge-old-kernels`

I use zabbix with grafana. Gives me telegram alerts and pretty graphs
 
*edit, forgot the closing )

@Fullzero....

I now have OC control of the 1060 and 1070. My MoBo has 4 PCIe slots. 2 of them have the blue tabs on the back to hold cards down. THATS the 2 I ended up trying and now I can OC both cards. Of course when I add the other 2 cards I doubt I will be able to OC them. One of the cards is coming Saturday so I will try it then and let you know. BTW all my other cards are on eternal back order it seems lol.

Can you send me in either post or PM the original xorg.conf please. The changes I made have shrunk my TeamViewer so small I can barely see it.

Thanks again for your help

Fullzero thanks for detailed instruction of my idea and including it into nvOS v0017

here are some operations for image space releasing:

sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade

sudo du -sh /var/cache/apt/archives
sudo apt-get clean

sudo apt-get autoremove
if after such operation we have such mistake as:
===
Errors were encountered while processing:
 linux-image-extra-4.4.0-65-generic
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
===
we need to delete all failes manually:
ls /var/lib/dpkg/info/ | grep linux-image | grep 4.4.0-65

exactly:
====
linux-image-4.4.0-65-generic.list
linux-image-4.4.0-65-generic.postrm
linux-image-extra-4.4.0-65-generic.list
linux-image-extra-4.4.0-65-generic.md5sums
linux-image-extra-4.4.0-65-generic.postinst
linux-image-extra-4.4.0-65-generic.postrm
====

cd /var/lib/dpkg/info/
sudo rm linux-image-4.4.0-65-generic.list
sudo rm linux-image-4.4.0-65-generic.postrm
sudo rm linux-image-extra-4.4.0-65-generic.list
sudo rm linux-image-extra-4.4.0-65-generic.md5sums
sudo rm linux-image-extra-4.4.0-65-generic.postinst
sudo rm linux-image-extra-4.4.0-65-generic.postrm

repeat the command:

sudo apt-get autoremove

have to delete non usable linux-image in system

dpkg --list | grep linux-image

sudo apt-get purge linux-image-4.4.0-{31,59,62,64,65,66,72,75,78,79}
sudo apt-get purge linux-image-extra-4.4.0-31-generic
sudo apt-get purge linux-image-extra-4.4.0-31-generic
sudo apt-get purge linux-image-extra-4.4.0-59-generic
sudo apt-get purge linux-image-extra-4.4.0-62-generic
sudo apt-get purge linux-image-extra-4.4.0-64-generic
sudo apt-get purge linux-image-extra-4.4.0-66-generic
sudo apt-get purge linux-image-extra-4.4.0-72-generic
sudo apt-get purge linux-image-extra-4.4.0-75-generic
sudo apt-get purge linux-image-extra-4.4.0-78-generic
sudo apt-get purge linux-image-extra-4.4.0-79-generic

then exsecute

sudo apt-get -f install
sudo dpkg --configure -a

it allows to descrease size image on 2++Gb


PS:I would like to add monitoring system into your project.
Now, I'm choosing from zabbix, munin and cacti. What would you advice?

I have only gotten this when OCing which is doing too high of an OC or OCing and not giving enough power via the powerlimit in order to support the OC.
