overcool,

my second attemp of XMOS experiment today is to play with the OC.
it turn that OC clock speed is raising slowly.
at the first 3-5 minutes of mining, the speed is still at stock speed.
after 10 min it reach the peak but sometimes drift to lower speed a little bit.
maybe the system got a little hot i guess.
tried with single gtx1050ti OC version. drawing 105W from wall.

is there any monitoring software (client).
i need to be alerted when a miner is off or the rig is hang so i can check it immediately.
sound alarm on a monitoring client is the best notif in my scenario.
plus an email notif it will be perfect.

one question about this OS, how can i restart the miner only, without reboot the whole system?
i need to restart the miner after change the conf.

third experiment is to run 6-12 gpus in a single rig.

btw nice OS gan,

okay,
i will try to OC more on my real rig.
this one is on my personal computer.
its 1070 katana that has a single slot design.
i cant oc too much.

ill send more ss on my mining rig.


rgds,


Please do let me know the result ya...

overcool,

very nice share,
i will definitely try this tomorow.

rgds,


update :
cant wait till tomorow.
here is my first test.
i have a problem with the display
after booting normally and showing a login prompt, it goes to blank screen but i can remote it with putty.

Hi goen,

Tq for give me a try.

If you connect keyboard mouse and monitor on the mining rings, You need to press Control + Alt + F1 to enable the display.

XMOS is design for  simple and easy use. It was no need keyboard mouse monitor to connect when mining. Using putty is more easy and save cost.  Grin

U also can connect to the xmos using any web browser. It will call out the webase ssh as well, u can do port forward on router to that port.
HTTPS://:4200/

Inside the mining console, you can use Control + a + 1 ( or 2 or 3 or ... ) to select screen.

Try OC the memory to 4000MHz, most of the DDR 5 memory can stable at that speed.
And under voltage your card.
For GTX 1070 GPU can try this setting:-
Power limit:- 110 Watt
Core:- -180
Memory:- 1450 (Make it reach 4000MHz)

Please try out the best future about xmos.
Auto restart ethminer when no job for 5 min.
Auto reboot when detect CUDA ERROR
Running individual insane for each GPU.

HAPPY MINING...

Please do let me know what other thing that and improve the xmos.

Hi Zenfr,
Thank you for give me a change, hope every one like this OS.

For your question here the answer:-

1. For source code I will open up github soon.
2. No fee, totally free.
3. For Nvidia OC I am using Nvidia-Setting and Nvidia-smi.
They was a 3 type OC setting inside XMOS.
NV_OC="1"  Present Overclock setting. It will -100 to core and +500 to memory.
NV_OC="2"  same OC setting apply to all GPU install on the system.
NV_OC="3"  Each GPU having own OC Setting. Need to set OC setting 1 by 1 for each GPU

    You just need to put OC value on the conf files. That all.
    Ex for:-
    nvidia code: NV_CLOCK="-100"
    Your are set -100 to Nvidia Code. Same as MSI afterburner
    Nvidia memory: NV_MEM="1000"
    You are set +1000 to GPU memory. If you can get +500 stable on MSI afterburner, on Linux it was x 2 (1000).
    
Just to share current setting that I am using:-
This my mining ring running on biostar star TB250 Pro
Using 12 PCs MSI Nvidia 1050 TI card
Celeron processor
4GB memory
16GB USB Pendrive

NV_WATT="52.5"
NV_CLOCK="-180"
NV_MEM="1130"
NV_FAN="88"
    
Can download for try.

I can accept any  recommendations, and make the OS more user friendly.

Thank you for this contribution to the mining community : there is no such tools for NVidia GPUs users :-).

3 questions :
 1 - Are the sources available ?
 2 - Is there any fee ?
 3 - Can you explain the OC features for NVidia GPUs

I am happy to receive any recommendations...

XMOS Ver:2.0

Todo list:-

1. Wifi Support -( Done) But only with WPA and WPA2 security.
2. Keyboard Fix when direct connect to Mining Rings - (DONE)
3. Advance Options to start Ethminer - (DONE)
4. AMD Overclock and Under-clock -(Pending) Still finding the way to under Voltage it. But it running fine with direct Bios Mod.

Other what your all request...?

Other improvement on ver 2.0:-

1. Re-compiled custome kernel 4.11 using ROCm source (With AMD DAG Fix, My RX470 can stable at 30MH/s with Bios Mod)
2. Better Watchdog function.
3. Can Mix AMD and Nvidia GPU together.  
4. Slim and light weight image, still running on 8GB
5. Plug and Mine on most of the system.
============================================

To configure Wifi please follow this step:-

1. sudo nano /etc/network/interfaces
2. Put in your wifi AP Name and Password.
3. Restart the system, it should work.


Report Hash Rate to pool..

Please add -RH option to advance ethminer options:-
Like This:-
COMMFLAG="--farm-recheck 2000 -SC 2 -RH"



Happy Mining ....  ^_^

Hai all Miner,

Just to share out a light weigh Linux based OS to all miner here.
Fully Support Support Nvidia GPU. (Include Overclock)
AMD GPU can use but lag of Overclock function.

Currently XMOS only support ETH mining client. using "ethminer" from github that been optimal for Nvidia GPU.
No Dev fee..

here the Ethminer link:-
https://github.com/ethereum-mining/ethminer

Here some information about the OS:-
I am using Linux 16.04 LTS USB Image create by "Cyclenerd" from github.
TQ Cyclenerd for the Great work. here the link on github.
https://github.com/Cyclenerd/ethereum_nvidia_miner

After using for few week, I did some "Bash Scripts" to tweak the Mining processor to be more smart and hope to get more share from POOL.
Future on XMOS:-
1. Plug and Play, for all Nvidia GPU.
2. Only need to change setting on 1 Config files, then everything is running. Simple and easy.
3. Running multi instances for each GPU.  (Ex:- if you have 6 GPU install, it will running 6 instances. all connect direct to the same POOL)
4. Auto Kill and restart Ethminer if no job receive from the POOL for 5 min. (EX:- Only kill 1 instances that was not job receive, no effect to other instances - be smart  Grin Grin)
5. Auto Restart the PC if detected "CUBA ERROR" from Ethminer (EX:- CUBA ERROR is cause by un-stable Overclock, have to find out the stable OC for the rings by yourself)
6. Nvidia GPU Overclock function. (Ex:- Can set diffident OC setting for each card)
7. Total size of the OS is 8GB only. Can write to any 8GB USB Stick and start mining. (EX:- Please use USB 3.0 for faster boot up time)
8. Easy understand Log file for easy troubleshooting.  
9. And the most important thing, it was FREE.

How to get XMOS

How to use and configure XMOS

Simple command to configure XMOS:-
1. At terminal type xmosconf
2. put in your ETH wallet address
3. put in your Pool address on Pool1 and Pool2. (STRATUM Mode)
4. and last your Nvidia OC setting.
5. Control X to save and quit the nano editor.
6. type r to restart. That all... enjoin mining...


Help full command at terminal:-

Command              Desc.
    ----------          -------------
    xmosconf          All Your Mining Setting need to Set inside here.
    mine                Attach to mining console
    show miner      Display current running log
    rlog                 Display server log
    gstatus            display GPU Information
    glist                 List all installed GPU
    r                      To restart XMOS
    nvoc                Manual apply Nvidia Overclock setting
    show miner x   Display individual miner log (0 - 11)
    how?               Display this help menu
    passwd            To change default password
    off                   To shutdown the mining ring




    Other Tips:-
    Type Command mine to lunch Mining console. There are total 4 screen inside the mining console.
    To move between Screen (0 - 4) Using Control a 1 , Control a 2 , Control a 3 , Control a 4

    Remember to change password - default password is letmein3061
