Topic: [OS] nvOC easy-to-use Linux Nvidia Mining - page 404. (Read 418251 times)

I have funny situation with my 6 x Zotac 1070 Minis....

doing lspci --- I see 6  x VGA devices

but EWBF mines with only 5 cards

Did I forget to change a setting in onebash for 6 cards?

Motherboard is using MSI Z270-A PRO.

Ran same rig with Win10..... same thing.... EWBF and other miners..... sees only 5 cards but this time Device Manager also sees five cards

The image of nvOC is 14.9gb but the two 16gb usb sticks I have tried only have 14.7gb or 14.8gb capacity.
I keep getting errors at the end when using hddrawcopy

  

Try replacing your xorg.conf contents with this (open the xorg.conf with command from eariler, select all and delete, paste in the following code, save, logout, login):


Let me know if this works.

What are the complete specifications of your system, to include riser type?

Have you tried swapping out the riser on that card?

How are you powering your risers?



Right, restarting the mining process will not reinitialize X, logging out, then logging back in or rebooting should.  I would recommend logging out, then logging back in as its much faster.

Try to turn off motherbord VGA, HDMI audio. Its helped me on 2th PCs
And i think, you have to reboot PC after xorg changes, just restart miner not helped me.

So here is my lspci

m1@m1-desktop:~$ lspci | grep VGA
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation Device 1b06 (rev a1)
02:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation Device 1b06 (rev a1)
04:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation Device 1b06 (rev a1)
05:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation Device 1b06 (rev a1)
06:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation Device 1b06 (rev a1)
08:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation Device 1b06 (rev a1)
09:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation Device 1b06 (rev a1)


and here is my xorg.conf, as I see the busid is matched. I tried to change to value, for example, from 01:00:0 to 01:00.0, but it did not work.

Hi, can anyone help?
I have same 4 ASUS 1060 3GB, all OC, but one works slowly then others.

Sounds good, let me know if you have any questions.  If I don't answer quickly, its most likely because I am asleep or have turned off notifications to get work done.

I will order the USB you rec'd and give it a go, especially since you're ordering a https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128975&cm_re=Z270P-_-13-128-975-_-Product to create image. I will post video results once I get it operational, I should have all my parts in by the end of next week

Watch the demo videos I made.  Configuring oneBash will probably be the hardest part, but I think you will be able to do it.  If you have questions, I should be able to answer them.

Also I am reasonably sure that if an ssd is imaged while connected to the build pc with a USB-to-sata adapter and then attached to a rig via the usb-to-sata adapter that it will also work fully with all the current nvOC images.  Not sure why I didn't think of this before.

I would really appreciate that, I just ordered 2x boards to setup Nvidia rigs with

Thank you for the detailed explanation, I am looking forward to trying your software

I will be honest however, I do not have experience using Linux, would you recommend against using your nvOC OS because of that or is there a particular guide/link you'd recommend?

I will order one of these and make an image for it:  https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128975

I understand why members are hesitant to try a USB key, cheap USBs are usually terrible: and fast ones are usually expensive.  

The Lexar drives I recommend are both fast and cheap.  Other members have requested I fully support SSDs again; so I am going to re-add full support for them in a later version.  

Currently you will either need to use manual intervention or make some changes to the system or bash files when using an ssd.

Personally I use all Lexar 16gb USBs with my rigs; except one has a Lexar 32gb I got to test.  I think they are the better choice over a more expensive ssd.

This is my reasoning:

The 16gb Lexar's I recommend are very fast (watch one of the nvOC demo videos if you don't believe me)

are very cheap: $8

are easy to attach to image then remove and reattach to a rig

vs a regular SSD or HDD allow you to use at least one less cable on your rig.

Finally using a usb key allows users to try nvOC without needing to install over their previous OS (no commitment needed).

Although one could use a sata to usb adapter with an ssd, or any type of usb ssd / adapter (there are a lot)  and it would match all the advantages other than cost.  I recommend spending $8 on a Lexar 16gb and seeing if it is fast enough for you; if it is (and most likely it is) then you just saved ~$30 per rig.

Let me know how it goes.

Wow, impressive result, I'm using Windows with EWBF miner but has only 650s per card. I will try to use nvOC and report here, I have 6 cards Gigabyte GeForce® GTX 1080 Ti Gaming OC 11G

What OS are you using?

Note in these photos GPU 0 is an EVGA 1080ti SC and GPU 1 is a Reference EVGA 1080ti; look at the difference in temps and you will understand why its better to go with the After Market models.

Also these have active cooling, 1x server fan behind each card.  I get risers and server fans from: hawkfish007

How many sols you get with this setting +100cc +900mc 200mv for 1080ti
I currently using +100cc +400cc and get 650 sol, can't increase to +900mc same as yours

1st I wouldn't use higher than a +150cc; +200cc is not stable with a 1080ti.  Even +150cc has some stability issues long term.  So I use +100cc and +900mc.  Powerlimit 200 is a good balance between power consumption and hash/s; but you many want to use a higher one if you have cheap power.

Also I highly recommend using manual fans with a very high percent speed with 1080tis; this will make them a lot more stable.

If oneBash is only OCing one card, but you can manually use the commands to OC the others, then there are still conflicts within the system.  These are most likely causing your system to have degraded performance.  I will restore ssd support in a later version as it has already been requested.  

Please post what is output by:

lspci | grep VGA
