Bitcoin mining ubuntu aticonfiguration
Creating an alias will make that easy. The easiest way to do that is to close your Putty session and power down your miner. Turn it back on and the following should happen:. I used this guide a while back, then decided to go back to Windows. Windows crashed hard and never gave me better hash rates, so back to Ubuntu!
Thanks so much for this guide and thanks for keeping it current! I followed your guide step by step and all is well except for when I start the miner I get this error:.
DRM version is 2. I had error message related to libOpenCL. In nanopool, I want to change min payout to 0. Hey EP, I have the same issue. Lightdm was causing some issues. The latest available version of Ubuntu on their website I theorize instilling an old version of Ubuntu If you change the version to match yours it will downgrade but not far enough.
And trying to many times may break your OS. I currently have kernel version 4. I have applied the FAQ instruction previously. Checked my version according to your instruction and mine is also 4. Looks like the slowdown is not a result of the version?
Any help will be appreciated. When i tryo yo check my account on eth. I get an account not found. Even after i have over share. Thanks for the great instruction. Unfortunately i have some problems. Everything works great for a day sometimes longer. It is not enough to deinstall the gpu driver.
I use 5 x R9 with two W power supplies. Do you have any idears. Thanks for this walk through worked amazingly well with the nvidia rig. Tried reinstalling the drivers and swapping the kernel version to 4. Are there any links that will detail the GPU optimization for ubuntu? Strap the cards in windows environment up, then put them back into your ubuntu rig. Hello, I believe this would work for me if I could just get the right download.
Maybe consider updating to the latest Claymore Miner version Thanks for your great work. I followed your instructions after January reboot with subsequent dropped hashrate. Everything was back to normal and my machine set not to update automatically. Today I rebooted again, hashrate per card went down from to System responded by telling me nothing removed since it is not installed. Is there another procedure to follow now to get the hashrate up again? I followed all steps until reach step 7 and try to run the miner using claymore Ver Finaly, after crawling through countless poorly written, hard to follow posts and more youtube videos than I care to admit this one did the trick.
I just got my modest rig hashing for the first time on ubuntu the way I had imagined and hoped it would. Segmentation fault core dumped. Notify me of follow-up comments by email.

The reason for this is two-fold: Mining will shorten the lifetime of your hardware and causes your PC to use more power, thus driving up your electricity bill.
Also, you might lose all the money you invest. Thus, use your brain! Bitcoin uses the Hashcash algorithm to verify transactions, which is a relatively simple calculation, which has been put on ASIC's that are capable of outperform many GPU's. Ethereum however, uses the Ethash algorithm , which is set up in such a way that it requires a big amount of Memory. As a result, the difficulty of mining Ethereum increases much slower than that of other currencies using the Hashcash algorithm.
Furthermore, it's optimized for mining with GPU's only and it even works when you're using an NVidia card, although AMD probably gives you a bigger bang for the buck.
Also, you need a Wallet to provide your unique Ether-address. Personally I recommend using Exodus , since it's easy to set up, supports multiple currencies, and doesn't eat all your system's resources like Mist does. Since I don't like the idea of others keeping your private keys, I suggest you keep away from cloud wallets.
The mesa-common-dev fixes most build failures. If you've omitted step 5 from above, you can run Ethminer from the ethminer-directory inside the build-directory you're probably still in:.
