mining minexcoin I want to do. who is there? which devices more compatible and more efficiency. I'll do mining for the first time. can you show me a road map?

Hi.
I'm using this miner but when I run it, I have this message :
./optiminer-equihash: /usr/local/cuda-8.0/targets/x86_64-linux/lib/libOpenCL.so.1: no version information available (required by ./optiminer-equihash)
As this miner is already compiled, do I have to install some dependencies ?
Thanks.

wierd ... i just installed linux then update then aditional drivers (maybe update again?) and run miner, nothing else and it works normaly
this should install openCL:
sudo apt update
sudo apt install ocl-icd-opencl-dev
Unbelievable, I've done all this and again the system freezes. Also, I have a super powerful mining machine. Stable mining is obviously a secret that no one will discover. This is my mine_mnx.sh file:
export GPU_SYNC_OBJECTS=1
export GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR=1
./optiminer-equihash -s eu.minexpool.nl:3333 -u XBcozpshjc4LMgKQCgbu9fbdw9a1JrYeYY.Minex4 -p 4 --pci-mode 1 -a equihash96_5 -i 256 (--pci-mode 0 me immediately freeze the system - for minut - 2 )

Does Minexcoin dig up? I wonder how much he earns. Zcash has a lot of difficulty.
zec, zen, smart ... same income per card (nvidia)

I will give a try.
I'm not running a standard version but this optimized one for NVidia :
https://github.com/Cyclenerd/ethereum_nvidia_miner
Didn't want to lose time by searching how to install NVidia drivers and other stuff

ps: it seems --pci-mode 0 solved my crash/hang problem.
THANK YOU!!! but still cpu is used on 100% (but its only 2core nonHT, so stock cooler is enough ... i hope)

Bad news: Your CPU is likely too slow to fully unleash the mining powers of all your GPUs.
The next version of optiminer will throttle the GPUs when it detects that the CPU cannot validate all the solutions found (there is no point in producing more solutions on the GPUs than the CPU can consume).
ps: it seems --pci-mode 0 solved my crash/hang problem.
It did not help me. The system is constantly frozen after about 5 minutes approx. I have a powerful configuration and the processor is not a problem: ASUS ROG STRIX Z270F GAMING, i7 7700T 2.9 - 3.8 GHz + OC 34%, 32 Gb DDR4 RAM (2 x 16 Gb Corsair 3000 MHz,cl15 ).

Validating is not fully correct. Actually the most work is computing the sha256d of the resulting solution to see if it is below the diff target. This could of course also be done on the GPU. Maybe in a future version. Switching to CUDA for Nvidia cards seems more important.
One more question: can you please explain what --pci-mode actually does? I have no idea. -h doesn't say much about it, except that I can pick mode 0,1,2 or 3.

Isn´t GTXTitanZ supported, yet?
I´ve got this error: "ptxas fatal : SM version specified by .target is higher than default SM version assumed"
Is there a way to mine with GTXTitanZ in the future?
The cards are old, but still very good.

I've noticed that the miner consumes continiuesly all avaliable memory and than when it ends, the system hangs.
I didn't notice no memory leak. Code:

2.038g RES seems rather high usage. Is that from the beginning like that? What cards? What driver?
I'm running 6x1060 6GB rig powered by EthOS v1.2.5 (Linux ###### 4.8.17-ethos49 #6 SMP Tue Aug 29 23:24:18 CDT 2017 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux), Nvidia driver version: 384.47
CPU is quad core Q9450 running at 2ghz (2.66 stock). I tried oc it a bit, to 3.2ghz.. didn't change anything except higher power consumption.Yes. Cpu load is like that all the time, right after I run the miner, although rising intensity makes it work longer smh (compared to autodetected -i 128, that works for only 30-45 minutes).. -i 384 lasted 11 and a half hours. I've set to -i 480 now, idk when its gonna hang.
oh and sometimes it says "Concurrent write detected. queueing." in the log. What's that about?
-i 480, 38 minutes...

I've noticed that the miner consumes continiuesly all avaliable memory and than when it ends, the system hangs.
Good news: I think I have been able to reproduce the problem of increasing memory usage. Do you get a lot of stale shares?
Bad news: Your CPU is likely too slow to fully unleash the mining powers of all your GPUs.
The next version of optiminer will throttle the GPUs when it detects that the CPU cannot validate all the solutions found (there is no point in producing more solutions on the GPUs than the CPU can consume).
Consider upgrading the CPU or mining something else on a subset of the GPUs. You can also try to run 2 instances of the miner with on two sets of GPUs (use -d to specify which ones), this might help if you have more than 2 cores as the miner only uses 2 threads for processing solutions. Also --pci-mode 0 might to not run out of memory with v2.0.
