Title: Pooler CPU Miner on Linux
Post by: UltimateCoder on August 26, 2013, 02:01:51 PM
I have remote access to one of my Linux machines and I wanted to use Pooler's CPU Miner on them.


Problem is that I cannot install required dependencies. Some are already present like gcc, make but I need to install curl-devel.

Is there anyway I can run CPU Miner without having to Install curl-devel. Sort of like in windows where the dependency files need to be present in the Directory.

I am very far from the machine and hopefully would get someone to fix it asap but I need to mine on that machine because It runs on free electricity.

BTW I am mining litecoins not bitcoins.

Is it possible to not build it from source and instead download a pre-built binary?

You can download the binaries from here (assuming you haven't tried it already):

Those have worked on a number of Ubuntu and Debian based machines here.
