New to mining, old to XMR...hi.

I bought a GTX 950 and I'm trying to make it work on Ubuntu 16.04 with no luck (just won't boot).

I have installed the correct drivers from the nvidia PPA. (i get a kernel error when trying the proprietary installer.)

I also tried what was listed in this guide to no avail.
http://my30daysoflinux.blogspot.com/2015/10/installing-nvidia-gtx-950-drivers-in.html

Does anyone have some experience with this setup? Any advice would be appreciated!

Heya lads. New to XMR. any1 having E3 Series Xeons working? What miner? I wonder how much H/s my E3 1271 could get

wolf miner is good, probably got 100-150 h/s for that.

i only want to mine with my rigs

don't need fancy website, the website_example default is fine.

btw is still profitable if i mine solo with my pool? i have 25kH/s.

Pool i'm looking at for that hashrate says 5.3 per day, but it's not in stone by any means.... Solo. No idea. Hash rate has doubled since the 10x increase, which really isn't that much. I mine with 2 old GPU's and make about 1 XMR every 3 days? Nothing big, but still more profitable than eth. I have never hit a block solo mining. Also the block reward just shrunk to under 11 xmr per block. Sad

Thanks   - Let me know and I can send you a doc for free or do this for you this weekend at a cost to be determined tomorrow since I have to work my real job in the am, sorry... Tongue

Sure. How much are you willing to pay in either xmr or btc, as it's not an hour long job lol.
i don't know make me an offer




Do you have what source code you want to run etc in mind? It takes more than a few hours, so I can't tell you unless you tell me what exactly you want. Just a pool to mine your own rig on, or do you need a fancy web front end meaning are you trying to start a profitable pool.

I once spent 8 hours doing this for someone, but it depends on the specs of the server you give me to work with in all honesty as it's a lot of compiling etc etc..  Also, it has to be Ubuntu. Grin

Thanks

Edit - More memory and CPU you provide == Cheaper to you to build on. Wink

Feel free to pm me. I can probably give you a base document so that if you are familiar with linux you could probably do it yourself. It just takes time, and CPU/Memory on the vps.

Dear miners! We recently launched our Monero mining pool.

The essentials:
0% fee while in beta
Running on cool hardware: Dell PowerEdge R610 with 2 x L5640 hexa-core CPUs, 16GB of RAM and a brand new SSD disk
Located on the East Coast, near North Carolina, US
67KH/s at the moment, 13 miners
We've mined our first 4 blocks already

Check us out at http://xmr.coolpool.io

Our thread is here https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/xmr-xmrcoolpoolio-0-fee-while-in-beta-us-east-coast-powerful-server-1608848

I'm going to try one more thing. I'm going to git clone the repo then make ..... and see what shakes loose

I deleted everything related to wolf-xmr-miner and emptied the trash --- a clean slate.

Then .....

Code:
cd ~
git clone https://github.com/wolf9466/wolf-xmr-miner
cd /home/monerominer/wolf-xmr-miner
make

Use gedit to edit xmr.conf to change the configuration to suit ( IE pool info & wallet address.paymentID)

Code:
./miner xmr.conf


And its working.... now for the tweaking

Thanks for the help.

I edited the xmr.conf with my wallet address and payment id as well as the pool that I want to mine on.

However, I'm still getting that cl error, but I noticed that the pool is NOT what I entered, and the payment address is not mine.

Where if the correct configuration file found. I edeted the xmr.conf found in the same folder as miner, I also found xmr.conf~ in my home folder after pressing ctrl-h.

Somewhere its getting the config info to mine with a pool and address that is not mine.



Do you have a link to wolf's repo you are trying to compile from? Is there a command line option to specify the conf file path or anything? thanks.

right from github ...

https://github.com/wolf9466/wolf-xmr-miner/releases

I downloaded the Source Code tar.gz file

From the looks of it, you just need to

1. make sure that miner exists in the current directory (ls -al)
2. start the miner like this ./miner --flags etc etc  ( ./ is current dir).

Thanks

edit - sometimes it is named "minerd", but IDK in your case, I don't use that miner.

the problem is that your current directory is not in your %PATH% so it can't see miner, so you have to start it by ./ or fully qualified path e.g. /usr/local/src/miner-src/build/miner --flags

oh derrrrrr.... I was forgetting the "./" in front of "miner"

however, a new issue ----

Wolf's OpenCL XMR Miner for AMD GPUs

If you get an error about clCreateBuffer - lower your rawintensity. See the example config xmr.conf for details.

Generally, you want to raise rawintensity as high as it will go without error - but remember, 2MiB of GPU RAM is needed for every work-item.

I edited the xmr.conf to reflect my GPU's stock clock and memory freqs, then reduced the intensity to 100 .... I still got the error. I reduced the intensity all the way to 1, I still got the error. I don't think its an intensity issue, more like an open cl issue perhaps?

Your thoughts?

damn, I'm sorry but I honestly can't help you with that one, I've never mined XMR using linux and when I did it was CPU only long ago... Wolf hangs out here sometimes, and I'm sure you are not alone. Have you googled it to death yet?

Good luck! Thanks

Edit - did you have any issues installing all the AMD/opencl stuff?

I was told that those are -warnings- not errors, so I tried to run the miner.


I tried to get the miner to work with the existing xmr.conf before I add my personal configuration, just to see if it works.

This is what I tried:


Code:
monerominer@monerominer:~/wolf-xmr-miner-0.3b$ miner xmr.conf
No command 'miner' found, did you mean:
 Command 'mines' from package 'sgt-puzzles' (universe)
 Command 'mixer' from package 'csound-utils' (universe)
miner: command not found
monerominer@monerominer:~/wolf-xmr-miner-0.3b$




Am I using the correct command / format to start the miner?




I also tried using WiNE...... just in case it still needs WiNE - I was trying to compile the miner so I would not have to use WiNE


Code:
monerominer@monerominer:~/wolf-xmr-miner-0.3b$ wine miner xmr.conf
wine: cannot find L"C:\\windows\\system32\\miner.exe"
monerominer@monerominer:~/wolf-xmr-miner-0.3b$


What am I doing wrong?
