Title: Startup Script in Ubuntu
Post by: stick_theman on June 25, 2011, 01:46:57 PM
I'm trying to build run my miner upon restart in Ubuntu

Here is what I did so far, I have a "chmod +x start.sh" script

#start.sh contains the following line
cd (directory)
python phoenix.py -u (pool address) -k poclbm DEVICE=0 VECTORS BFI_INT WORKSIZE=128 AGGRESSION=11 DEVICE=0


I added start.sh into the System/Startup Application through the user interface

After I restart the computer, nothing happens.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.  Thank you

Resolved.  Customize the XTerm.

See the thread in my sig for Autominer, it's a total solution to start mining and monitor everything upon bootup.

Thanks!  Let me test it out.  Do you have your script reboot the machine once so often?  I find after 2-3 days, machine usually goes off line.

No, I have a kvm so I can remote-reboot from my cellphone if a miner goes down.
