Thank you for sharing your experience with Linux on Pandaminer.

So you'll have to change bios settings for both of them to work.

How do you get into the BIOS?

Quote from: Eliovp on January 03, 2017, 04:00:20 AM

No, linux is not a straightforward install. There are several reasons for this and you'll see when you try

Please elaborate. What difficulties did you encounter?

if you are in Europe - how much they write on invoice? (because high VAT...)

If you have a company, are from europa and own a vat number, it'll be an intra-community delivery. In other words, no tax.

I am from europe and i have VAT. Can you tell me price and where to buy one please ? Thank you.

Send me a pm.

Can you please elaborate on this? What settings? In BIOS/CMOS?
Is the 2nd HDMI connector connected to the onboard system or to one of the GPU?

Is the M.2 SSD slot limited to 42mm?

Can you confirm that there's 2 RAM slots?

Is Linux a straightforward install or is there anything we need to watch out for?

I just ordered 1 PandaMiner, had I seen your thread earlier I would have ordered more to save on shipping. Cheesy

I'll try to put esxi on and enable GPU passthrough so I have the flexibility of switching OS quickly.

Of course.

Bios settings are a big factor yes.
Both HDMI jacks are connected to the mainboard, the mainboard is some sort of a pci switch.
So you'll have to change bios settings for both of them to work.

Great that you have got the Linux up and running.

Can you run some test on XMR mining with sgminer-gm and wolf XMR miner?

Claymore should be updating his Cryptonight miner soon, hope he will have Linux version by then.

Surprised that you haven't started modding the 480M yet.... maybe a 480MlowenergyOK.rom ? Grin

Thanks - great job!

100% that standard roms will not work with mobile ones. And in case of firing cards - the restoration will be way too complicated

photos of the msata and ram are posted on my review thread.

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.17366877

but op is the man as a working linux is gold and he can lower fan speeds as the fans can do 70% (a guess by me).

he mentions he can lower fan speed and that his gpus are only 40c.

this machine will be even better then hoped for. if fans run at 60% and temps are 55c for the gpus.

I need a copy of that software Grin

My windows build does not show temps or fan speeds. his linux does

at op I am doing around 1730h and 1062 watts with an evga 1600 g2 psu. and around 1200 watt with their stock gpu.

how much watts are you using for your 1696h?

The fans are full speed and may be able to drop to 70% which would really be good.

The unit has 9 fans at 10 watts each. That comes to 90 watts since fans are full speed.

Lowering of the fans could save 30 watts.

I have no idea about the consumption right now. I will have more detailed info tomorrow.
Yes they are set at 100%, i can lower them though.. Temperature of the gpu's is around 40 degrees average at this moment.

Hey guys!

As i've mentioned earlier, i also ordered a pandaminer.

It arrived today! Yey.

I took the time to boot the original ssd into that awesome Chinese Windows 10 and it took me around 10 minutes to turn it off again and to replace that ssd with a new one.

Of course i played around with it and installed linux on it

(ps. i also fixed both the hdmi outputs, both are working fine now)

Here are some pictures.

Will post power / speed results later. Will also fetch that rom and modify the hell out of it.. "later.. :p"

If this runs smooth for more than 2 days, i will consider making this commercial, i mean: the pandaminer modified with modified roms. (only europe "for now")..

Pictures: (i'm just posting the links because i hate the fact that pictures will make me have to scroll like a madman to get to the bottom of the page..)

They box :p

Box

Messed around with it and running on linux

Linux

More info coming later!
