Ok, now I feel stupid, I could not find the line mentioned in the update script found from github nor from the 4update script on m1 home directory..
You mention it's Ubuntu issue, so in some system directory ?

Cant say for sure you should try and see how it goes
May be other users has more experience with these converters...

Sorry, I messed up the versions, I am running 19-2.0, I will try the change mentioned above.

Hi Papampi,

I can't use HDMI as my monitor is an old VGA monitor and I have a DVI-D to VGA converter which I am using. Do you think an HDMI to VGA converter will solve this problem? Not sure if I can procure one right away.

Its a known ubuntu problem, try to image with 19-1.4
then update with 19-2.0 update script and change this line in the update script :

from:

to:


Edit:
did I get it correct?
Your rig works with 19-1.4?
But not after update to 19-2.0?

You have an MSI 1070 ti and want to mine with it?
No problem, all Nvidia 10x cards are supported with nvOC

Two of my rigs seem to make the whole network unoperational. unplugging the rig from network and rebooting seems to solve this.
I tried to search for this but didn't find anything even though I recall it has been discussed previously.

Seems to happen with both updated and image version of v0019-1.4.
What might cause this?

Cant you connect directly with HDMI?

Is it possible to plug MSI GPU 1070 ti instead of NVIDIA 1070 ti ?

DSTM  ZCash / Equihash Nvidia Miner v0.5.8 update for nvOC v0019-2.0 :

Run this :



Or this:



Or download from its thread, rename it to zm_miner and put it in /home/zec/zm/latest

Gents,

Thanks for excellent work. This distro looks very promising. I am trying to migrate my rig from Windows to nvOC and I have couple of questions in this regard. Below is my rig's configuration.

7xGTX 1080 (GIGABYTE) (Suppose to work with nvOC)
1xRX580 (XFX) (Will I be able to make RX580 work along with my nVidia cards?)
ASRock H110 BTC+
2x PSUs = Cougar 1200w and Corsair 850w
Monitor: HP Envision 17"

I am using a DVI-D to VGA converter to connect monitor with GTX 1080 card.

Challenge 1: I tried several versions and community builds but none works and Rig keeps rebooting after giving X Org error. It states my monitor is connected with onboard VGA which is not the case I am connecting the monitor with GTX 1080 and right now that is the only external card connected with my Rig. I tried different settings in BIOS but nothing works and nvOC keeps rebooting. Could someone help me out here. I downloaded "nvOC 19-2.0" and prepared the USB with it but I am still facing this XOrg issue and rig reboots, any help will be greatly appreciated.

Challenge 2: I want to use SSD instead of a USB drive. Could someone guide me on that. I tried burning the image on SSD and booting with it but rig goes into reboot loop because of XOrg and miner never launches.

Thanks all.

Thanks.

Oupss!!! Noticed it after I posted the question :-D

yeah...over 5gb i hit limit just now (

it want me to wait 5h to continue

Hi Martyroz,
Are the PCIE cables between the AX, HX and RM series compatible?

Thank you, leenoox !
Waiting for those good news

I have 6 rigs and all PSU are from Corsair;

TX850 (non-modular)
RM1000x (6 PCIE capable - comes with 4 * double headers)
HX1200 (6 PCIE capable - comes with 4 * double headers)
HX1200  (as above)
HX1000i (6 PCIE capable - comes with 4 * double headers)
AX1200i (8 PCIE capable - comes with 2 * double headers and 4 * single headers)

We always need one PCIE for the CPU, so here is the max card set-up for each PSU (single header / double header);
RM1000x / 10 / 5
HX1200 / 10 / 5
HX1000i / 10 / 5
AX1200i / 14 / 7

The AX1200i could technically do 14 cards if single 8 pin - but you would have to buy an additional 5 * PCIE double headers (they go for about $15 ea.). You also would break the golden rule that says 2 risers per peripheral power string. All of these PSU's are capable of 6 peripheral strings max, which is 12 cards if two cards per string. You would have to buy more of those too, or mishmash your riser set-up (3 molex, 2 sata, etc)

I have bought a fair few additional cables for the above. Just be aware of the compatibility differences when ordering single cables on eBay, etc. Additionally, you can buy full cable replacement kits to get the extra PCIE cables, I recently did this at a cost of $100 just to get 4 more PCIE double headers as my regular eBay guy was sold out in December.

HXi and AXi cables are compatible with each other (Type 3)
HX and RMx/RMi cables are compatible with each other (Type 4)

Here is what I mine with each PSU:
TX850 - 1080ti / 1080 (blower) / 1070ti (mini)
RM1000x - 4*Vega56
HX1200 - 4*Vega64
HX1200 - 4*1080ti / 1070ti
AX1200i - 3*1080 / 2*1070ti / 1070 / 1080ti
HX1000i - 3*1080 / 1080ti


If I had my time again, I would buy only AX1200i / AX1500i. They have great adaptability with the two extra PCIE slots and have uniform compatibility with each other. The exception being HX1000i for Vega rigs (4-6). Stick with the cable compatibility type so you don't have to stock both lines and check when using.... ><

I like to know how to use server PSU for mining too.
