Title: ISO Linux mint + integrated Nvidia driver for mining and home and games Post by: dj--alex on December 19, 2017, 04:35:25 AM Many people use unsafe by default Windows OS for mining, use wallets, and someone for gaming.
In one system use wallet and mining is a bad idea. Better have 2 systems or have a virtualbox. Im create 2 lines of repack "Linux mint for home and games 22.2.21", of course it works for mining (Equihash, Ethash, Cryptonight ...) It good for both - for be a main system, second system or virtualbox image os. First image with preinstalled Nvidia driver, and (!) Supported windows DX9/DX11 games from the box (!) partially. (By wine patched with csmt) You can play now Witcher 3, Divinity original sin 2, and after it mine some etherium&monero for night For security reasons removed samba support. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JJbUTzGPf5Q - you can even run some of DX11 benchmarks (not all works) . https://rutracker.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=5423243 (no register, magnet and torrent) System requirements: 64bit any processor, Any GTX 600+ videocard, 2Gb or more ram. 9Gb Hdd for mining only, more for other. It's a better way to test first linux in life, or best way to very fast install system with driver. Of course system is free. Unfortunately i don't have a AMD card, i know you can remove Nvidia driver and install AMDGPU driver manually. (from amd site) Second image cannot be used for mining, it's have unified video driver and same wine. https://rutracker.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=5343942 I not add for my images banners, hidden miners, keyloggers. your can download it any time and check it. (Microsoft do it all, except miners i think) I even install a ublock (adblock analog), but you can remove it of course. Exist only one source of images - rutracker.org site. If you like this project you can donate me ETH: 0xd595a349ebf869715a82f14ef949fdf198e676e8 or BTC: 1Di3AAVH7E9Lyghy6f4VYRLzwhkQj2T44X. i mine 50/50 in pools and nicehash :(( and i thinking it lost but it's offtopic. Or just help me with idea, resolving problem or etc. Later i create image with ENGLISH language by default, if people like it. I tries crowdfunding, but in russia crowdfunding is unknown for people, many people thinking donate is a bad idea and only for bum/homeless. (donateware and patreon like unfortunately useless in my country) P.S. You can don't trust me, then just try official Linux Mint. Installing linux only for mining is simply. It's linuxmint.com + some miner like claymore + your videocard driver + friendly interface. Creating image with integrated proprietary videodriver, support windows x64, and filling wineprefix, harder a bit. Many people tells ubuntu is simpliest. It's a good platform for constructing , but it's uncomfortable by default interface. P.S.S. I have a two card rig, and my friend has a 5 videocard rig, and this system works perfectly. I use system as main and one system, but have a another fresh copy in a virtualbox. P.s.s.s After install for serious using - you must change your password! by default it' toooooo simple. Installing OS with systemback, unfortunately i cannot tell in english, but i can add subtitles, i hope you can see all instalation process visual. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a97GLKpy4Hs this release must change language to english to normal use. Just run program (alt-f2) enter "mintlocale" after install and change all positions it to en(GB) if this is too hard - sorry , you can only download official Linux mint without all updates I create this video for help https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kXCyxO6dBlk P.s.s.s.s Linux is no ideal but it better than many OS exists. Of course i know some programs never can be played on Linux, like battlefield 1 or etc proprietary games with protects prevent you run software if you don't pay for OS. If you say - you can just use windows. You all life use one system, don't want a something new in your life? It's very useful known two or more systems. I hope you not dissapointed. If you interest something other i have offtopic for you - im creating and work on interest logical game for zx-spectrum style lovers https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2612630.msg26581213#msg26581213 Big thanks to creators of Linux mint. Sorry for english mistyping Miners not included. You can found it on forum. |
