Title: Mining on Nvidia Jetson Tx2 Post by: tonyfrost2020 on November 13, 2020, 09:02:47 AM I currently have a Nvidia Jetson Tx2 just sitting around, I was wondering if anyone has managed to get a GPU miner to work with the 256 cuda cores for alt mining?
I installed ethminer but when I ran the benchmark the GPU was showing as 0MH/s. I know this wouldn't even touch bitcoin, which is why I am looking into the alt coin market. If anyone has managed this, would you be able to give me a push in the right direction? And also post a benchmark of your results if possible?

Title: Re: Mining on Nvidia Jetson Tx2 Post by: tonyfrost2020 on November 13, 2020, 02:07:30 PM Ok so I have built xmrig from source and get the following cuda error when trying to run xmrig:-
Code: x@x:~/miner/xmrig/build$ ./xmrig -o xxx.xxxxx.xxx:xxxx -u x -p x -a rx/0 -k --no-huge-pages --cuda --cuda-loader=./libxmrig-cuda.so Can anyone think of why the CUDA is showing as disabled((null))? I will keep having a dig around to see if I can find anything. Title: Re: Mining on Nvidia Jetson Tx2 Post by: tonyfrost2020 on November 13, 2020, 04:20:53 PM I have updated the drivers on the Jetson Tx2 and installed the xmrig-cuda addon and can now see the following:-
Code: * ABOUT XMRig/6.5.1 gcc/7.5.0 What is (hopefully) a massive step closer, the I am now facing an issue regarding the following:- Code: [2020-11-13 16:14:06.572] nvidia use profile rx (1 thread) scratchpad 2048 KB I will continue to dig away at it, any help would be greatly appreciated. Title: Re: Mining on Nvidia Jetson Tx2 Post by: tonyfrost2020 on November 13, 2020, 04:40:47 PM After a reboot, I managed to get the GPU running with xmrig.
Code: [2020-11-13 16:36:16.185] miner speed 10s/60s/15m 32.30 n/a n/a H/s max 32.82 H/s As you can see it's not a desirable hash rate, I've had a RPI4 running faster. Is there anyway I can speed this up? Title: Re: Mining on Nvidia Jetson Tx2 Post by: jadefalke on November 16, 2020, 07:02:53 AM After a reboot, I managed to get the GPU running with xmrig.

Is there anyway I can speed this up? you recognized that RandomX is not designed for GPU? so what exactly do you expect? try eth/x16 or something more favorable for your GPU.

Fair enough, I have had a look at the kawpow algorithm and am now hitting 250k h/s. Title: Re: Mining on Nvidia Jetson Tx2 Post by: miner29 on November 16, 2020, 02:25:05 PM 250khs is very low for kawpow. Generally done in Mhs.
Also the gear you are using is simply not powerful enough. This thing only have 1/8 of the cores of a 1070.... about 1/4 to 1/5 of a 1060..so not much there. Even a 1050 (non ti) has more cores. You are wasting your time trying to mine on this thing...but that was clear 3 years ago. Fun to play and learn but no good for mining, |
