Title: KopiemTu 3.0 - ethash & equihash - NVIDIA USB linux distro Post by: jk_14 on March 18, 2014, 02:19:25 PM Simple, Solid & Stable
64-bit Lubuntu based Linux for Nvidia 1000 series cards (370.28 driver) https://i.imgur.com/rfx55JWs.png (https://i.imgur.com/rfx55JW.png) Most Important Statement: If you are not familiar with linux - still there is no problem at all, because Midnight Commander ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Midnight_Commander ) is installed for you. Become root via "sudo su - ", then type: mc <Enter> And edit configuration files in /etc/kopiemtu via F4. And reboot! ('two-minutes" setup, real Plug&Play ;) ) New v3.0 !!! (Long Term Support) ! (7-Zip archive 3.5 GB): http://mbl.cash/kopiemtu-3.0.zip (http://mbl.cash/kopiemtu-3.0.zip) MD5sum kopiemtu-3.0.img: 0ce492dbb6342fea06e2831bfe41f895 New in v3.0: Cuda 8.0 + 370.28 driver with O/C "Added the ability to over- and under-clock certain GeForce GPUs in the GeForce GTX 1000 series and later" http://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/107408/en-us (http://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/107408/en-us) and: - compact size (should fit on all 16GB pendrives) - Lubuntu 16.04.1 based - temperature and fan ranges on Master rig - many small improvements https://i.imgur.com/xynPFYds.png (https://i.imgur.com/xynPFYd.png) http://pics.tinypic.pl/i/00828/o7poe4ilf9n0_t.jpg (http://pics.tinypic.pl/i/00828/o7poe4ilf9n0.png) http://abload.de/thumb/kopiemtu_master_close9qkni.png (http://abload.de/img/kopiemtu_master_close9qkni.png) Pendrive creation (16GB is necessary) - you can use for example: http://sourceforge.net/projects/win32diskimager/ (or 'dd' command in Linux for using all your USB ports simultaneously) If you have DHCP server in your network and headless PC - use any ssh client to connect (check your router logs for new assigned IP): login: root password: live From GUI - just open LXTerminal and type: sudo su - Quick Guide: Configuration files: /etc/kopiemtu/ Set your pools, workers, passwords properly here - and whole hashrate mines for you only and forever. (do not edit miner.conf - edit other files and use 'mine switch' ) mine switch|start|stop|status monitor start|stop|status (read: /root/README.txt) Master rig only commands: mmit - master mine start mmip - master mine stop mmis - master mine status mmih - master mine switch mmot - master monitor start mmop - master monitor stop mmos - master monitor status To convert normal rig into master rig, edit /root/.master.conf, and: mv /root/.master.conf /root/master.conf Then reboot and read: /root/README.txt :) Some usefull hints here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=520998.msg16542749#msg16542749 For e-mail notifications (failover & restart) - please edit: /etc/ssmtp/ssmtp.conf http://tombuntu.com/index.php/2008/10/21/sending-email-from-your-system-with-ssmtp/ (http://tombuntu.com/index.php/2008/10/21/sending-email-from-your-system-with-ssmtp/) Here is the place reserved for O/C, BIOS modification and experiences: http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?px=MTY1OTM&page=news_item Multi-GPU overclocking configuration example of /etc/X11/xorg.conf - thanks to user Dazza12: https://litecointalk.org/index.php?topic=16800.msg177791#msg177791 (for headless rig - install Teamviewer and sometimes: dummy plug) Verified platform, up to 6 GPUs: https://litecointalk.org/index.php?topic=16578.0 "It's been working beautifully and they have been stable for days on end with no issues" (conmega) Best pendrive (recommended at least for master rig): http://usb.userbenchmark.com/SanDisk-Extreme-USB-30-16GB/Rating/1301 TODO: - ethminer ================================= KopiemTu 3.0 is distributed under six-beers license.

I'm trying to install this to a 16GB USB Drive, and I know that the file itself is 7.22GB. However, is there any way of installing Kopiemtu onto the USB and having the other 7GB remaining as general storage, so I can still use half of the drive, as a normal pendrive? Title: Re: [ !

When you write the image, it write all the sectors in image file to the device.I'm trying to install this to a 16GB USB Drive, and I know that the file itself is 7.22GB. However, is there any way of installing Kopiemtu onto the USB and having the other 7GB remaining as general storage, so I can still use half of the drive, as a normal pendrive? So I pretty sure that if you write the 7GB image on the 16GB device, you will still have only 7GB available when Kopiemtu is running because the GB remaining are not used.

Post by: jk_14 on August 04, 2016, 11:08:04 AM Looks like version 2.0 is out https://litecointalk.org/index.php?topic=16800.0 Hi, I have a new KopiemTu version for new Pascal GPUs, let say v2.1: Code: root@kopiemtu:~# nvcc -V | grep tools It is still simple, solid and stable, but quite "dirty"... (some time-saving "shortcuts", no recommended upgrades, etc) I should polish it yet, but it's quite time consuming process, especially if I would decide to upgrade it thoroughly - and now I'm quite busy (and should be next week yet) with my own Pascal GPU roll-out :) The question is, if should I release it, actually - if you are able to pay some small amount for it (just to increase my motivation to keep it clean and "ccminers updated" ) not such expensive like 39$ EthOS per rig, but let say 200 VTC, and per user (that would be more less in cost of one more PCIe riser, not that much comparing to whole rig's price) any feedback would be nice, then :) http://oi59.tinypic.com/nz2c7n.jpg (image thanks to: Induktor https://archive.litecointalk.org/index.php?topic=16800.msg277876#msg277876 ) Title: Re: NEW KopiemTu 1.4 - Nvidia 750Ti USB linux.

Post by: jk_14 on September 16, 2016, 09:48:18 AM Hi, I have a new KopiemTu version for new Pascal GPUs, let say v2.1: It seems we are going to 3.0 version, Lubuntu 16.04.1 based, for 16GB pendrive I even bougth dedicated SSD drive for easy play with new version In fact it's quite a good idea to have master rig with at least 16GB SATA SSD drive and other rigs - pendrive only version, as cheaper and less cabling I know that might look impossible - but new KopiemTu is even easier to run than before :) Several days yet... Title: Re: KopiemTu - first NVIDIA USB linux distro is back :) Post by: PVmining on October 05, 2016, 12:30:56 PM hey jk_14,
I was active a long time ago on your litcointalk thread (different username) - and like to leave some "thank you" in here! You were one of the reasons I dived deep into linux and I really did not regret it. Today I use "regular" linux installations (on SSD) on my rigs, but would be more than curious to take a closer look into your new kopiemtu version. I mined on your vtc & bbr adresses from time to time while using your kopiemtu, but like to send you a little additional donation. please post your BTC (or BBR) address on this thread. take care!

Thanks! and I'm glad because of your linux improvement (that was one of reasons KopiemTu was born ;) ) I have almost finished new distro v3.0 but even ETH is rather for AMD - I planned to include it there. before - as Ethereum newbie - I successfully compiled an ethminer under old distro, with old Cuda toolkit But now, under new Ubuntu 16.04.1 (i.e. Lubuntu), with new Cuda 8.0 - I have some issues yet. Is there anybody, who has compiled ethminer with these two above?

EDIT: bug fixing... ;) Title: Re: KopiemTu - first NVIDIA USB linux distro is back :) Post by: jk_14 on October 12, 2016, 10:37:15 PM uploading... :) EDIT: bug fixing... ;) First post updated, only file image is missing yet: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=520998 Uploading again... less than hour yet, so in meantime, some hints: In fact new version is configured for GTX 1000 series, but if you want to run some older cards, even 750 Ti - go into /opt/miners and in all ccminer's directories change a symbolic link ccminer to ccminer_all, which supports compute 5.0 up to 6.2 Code: rm ccminer If you have some fast pendrive - you can upgrade system packages, but: option "dist-upgrade" - will require additional tasks for proper operation It's really nice to have master rig on SSD drive, and rest of rigs may work on 16GB pendrives (cheaper, and no SATA / power cabling) For that purpose - create first KopiemTu pendrive, even under Windows and when you see the first KopiemTu 3.0 screen with "boot:" prompt, type: rescue <Enter> then verify with partx, if your SSD is /dev/sda, and KopiemTu pendrive is /dev/sdb - like below: Code: root@sysresccd /root % partx /dev/sdb - then you can easily add fourth partition on your SSD, with fdisk command. Rescue system is quite usefull yet for: 1. utilising all USB ports for making many KopiemTu pendrives simultaneously: Code: dd if=kopiemtu-3.0.img of=/dev/sdb bs=1M count=14401 & 2. repair KopiemTu filesystems if broken (in case of lack of power, etc) Code: fsck -y /dev/sda1 Title: Re: KopiemTu - first NVIDIA USB linux distro is back :) Post by: jk_14 on October 12, 2016, 10:57:42 PM Done! Title: Re: KopiemTu - first NVIDIA USB linux distro is back :) Post by: jk_14 on October 13, 2016, 05:51:48 AM Done! most important, if you don't know that under KopiemTu - switching 8 rigs to new pool takes only 20 seconds: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=167229.msg7716030#msg7716030 - that is old thread, now use: Code: mmip; mmih; mmit and of course you can still control single rig from master command line, by: Code: mmip w12; mmih w12; mmit w12 Title: Re: KopiemTu - first NVIDIA USB linux distro is back :) Post by: jk_14 on October 13, 2016, 10:12:26 AM CRYPTO MINING BLOG info: http://cryptomining-blog.com/8289-new-kopiemtu-3-0-linux-mining-distribution-for-the-latest-nvidia-gpus/ P.S. while waiting for your v3.0 feedback, let me include the older one: "The windows users have to try it for themself, before the really know what its like to use a easy to use and stable linux rig with failover support. There are so many reasons for KopiemTu and you do really good work in supporting the users. The main reason I tried kopiemtu some time ago was - i ran out of windows lic's :D and every AMD user were so happy about their BAMT. After taking some time to get into kopiemtu, it became the only way I could think of operating a few rigs without having to look all the time - if there is some problem with the pool or the system. It is really no work to set them up and absolute stable... fire and forget. Before I wasted lot of hashes with not having failover support using windows. Now I ran those rigs for weeks without any reboot. I could go for a vacation and see if everything is fine with your http monitor (via vpn connect)... and switch the algos with via ssh." https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=167229.msg7716432#msg7716432 Title: Re: NEW KopiemTu 3.0 - first NVIDIA USB linux distro is back :) Post by: induktor on October 13, 2016, 07:34:32 PM WOW!

I gave your new KT3.0 a try on a single testrig - it is a fine progress. I like the new mine & monitor status. nice. Some thoughts:
one thought came up here. the OP of this thread is reading more complicated than the use of kopiemtu is. I think it would be a nice idea to make some little "howto video" to show how fast the the first rig could be online and mining. ps. send you a little donation. cheers! pps. you are crazy. and i like that ;) I saw your outdoor rig on the other thread. lol. would love to see some more pictures about it.

Hi, PVmining! I hope you have tested the current image, that what I provided you earlier is before last bug fixing. - there is /root/powerlimit.conf file, where you can set required power level, then it's used during 'mine start' because I have observed spontaneous power increase after days of working - I set /etc/crond.hourly/powerlimit, which set that back to requested level, just for sure - so showing the wattage in the http status monitor is not so necessary due to this? - I didn't check if double Cuda toolkits is complex issue - because compute_52 is faster on GTX 10x0 than compute_61 - default symbolic link point to the ccminer_52, not ccminer_61, so it's done - I will think about it - (after 1.8.2. my donation was made, https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=770064.msg16337641#msg16337641 ) - ETH is in TODO, not super urgent while there are NVidia coins more profitable still yes, such Youtube howto would be nice... :) in fact, every first rig is instantly online and mining (...only pointed to my Coinotron worker ;) ) Thank you for your generous donation, 0.0333 btc I was asking for that: http://www.piwo-zywiec.na-pulpit.com/tapety/szesciopak-piwo-piwo-ywiec.jpeg (http://www.piwo-zywiec.na-pulpit.com/tapety/szesciopak-piwo-piwo-ywiec.jpeg) but you have sent me this: http://frega24.pl/media/catalog/product/cache/1/image/800x600/c562ae099580d6a062289618533acacb/5/9/5901559130000_3_15.jpg (http://frega24.pl/media/catalog/product/cache/1/image/800x600/c562ae099580d6a062289618533acacb/5/9/5901559130000_3_15.jpg) ... and you wrote I'm crazy ;) more pictures of outdoor rig is sent to you via PM ( also cool? :) ) Title: Re: NEW KopiemTu 3.0 - first NVIDIA USB linux distro is back :) Post by: PVmining on October 15, 2016, 08:43:12 AM It was the latest version. I saw your bugfix info in this thread and redownloaded the image before installing on the stick.
I will look into your powerlimit.conf, interesting concept. - I didn't check if double Cuda toolkits is complex issue Its not. Meanwhile I use three different cuda versions on my rigs at the same time. Just point the miner on the right version before compiling. maybe it resolves you ETH miner problem on an easy way. Code: ~cuda - I will think about it - - (after 1.8.2. my donation was made,...) To get me right. I don't meant to send all the hash for epsylon3. Just the poolfee as little form of donation. Title: Re: NEW KopiemTu 3.0 - first NVIDIA USB linux distro is back :) Post by: jk_14 on October 15, 2016, 08:53:59 PM Regarding Cuda versions, that result was some time ago under previous Cuda: Code: [2016-07-21 07:21:25] accepted: 44/45 (97.78%), 3151 kH/s yes! at 3.0 release, under Cuda 8.0 and ccminer_52, with the same hardware and powerlimit 150 - I have: Code: Oct 15 21:46:58 kopiemtu ccminer[809]: coinotron.com:3337 neoscrypt block 1425668 it seems Cuda 8.0 is ok for my configuration... P.S. I have found some small bug, but easy to remove: after first boot monitor process should be stopped for 1-2 minutes...

I am working on the necessary mods for ethereum on your kopiemtu 3.0 and also for my display ;D OK, it doesn't work, i installed a lot of libraries that in my notes are marked as necessary but still does not compile and the error is weird. I even tried to move my entire cpp-ethereum folder (compiled and working in kopiemtu 2.0 MOD #4) and run it, also does not work. If i try to run the compiled version i had in kopiemtu 2.0 in kopiemtu 3.0 i get: Code: Oct 16 18:06:46 kopiemtu root: /opt/miners/cpp-ethereum/build/ethminer/ethminer: symbol lookup error: /opt/miners/cpp-ethereum/build/libstratum/libethstratum.so: undefined symbol: _ZN4Json6Reader5parseERKSsRNS_5ValueEb If i try to compile genoil's 1.1.7 cpp-ethereum in kopiemtu 3.0 i get: Code: [62%] Building NVCC (Device) object libethash-cuda/CMakeFiles/ethash-cuda.dir/ethash-cuda_generated_ethash_cuda_miner_kernel.cu.o any ideas? I will start digging on that particular error. Also I found out that we have different CUDA 8 builds!!!!! that could be the issue as well. Working: kopiemtu 2.0 MOD #4, CUDA version: 8.0, V8.0.26 - Driver: 367.44 Not working: kopiemtu 3.0 orig, CUDA version: 8.0, V8.0.44 - Driver: 370.28 I don't think it is a driver issue, but it could be that something changed on the CUDA build.

it seems that cmake fucks something up setting up std c++11 twice unnecessarily for some reason, the error in question is on libethash-cuda/CMakeFiles/ethash-cuda.dir/stuff ;D editing flags.make there and removing the --std=c++11 creates all sorts of problems. but using VERBOSE=1 during make -j4 i can see that NVCC is right, std c++11 is defined TWICE, removing the second one, fucks something up, but i have no idea how to remove the first one. this is the line with the error (it may not be the only one, but until we/I/whoever! ;D fix this we probably won't see the next ones.

I installed gcc 4.9: Code: root@kopiemtu:~# update-alternatives --config gcc but if I good remember, I have checked also gcc-4.8 - with no results... I'm thinking about recompiling ethminer again under old distro, and trying to make some next tricks but even if it works, that would be still a shortcut. Title: Re: [NEW] KopiemTu 3.0 - first NVIDIA USB linux distro is back :) Post by: induktor on October 16, 2016, 08:48:34 PM Hi Jk_14 good to hear from you!
please re-read my previous post because i edited it, and added a lot of new info. I almost compile it, by downgrade version of cmake to 3.2.2 now i have some json errors at the end of the compile, but we are close! ;D about moving the version yeah i did that too and didn't worked, same as you describe it, unresolved symbols. but we are close to compiling it. i am thinking maybe this issue is because i had to install the newer libjsonrpccpp-dev because the older libjson-rpc-cpp-dev cannot be found with apt in 16.04 what do you think?. can you try what i did so far see if you get same results or go further? Title: Re: [NEW] KopiemTu 3.0 - first NVIDIA USB linux distro is back :) Post by: induktor on October 16, 2016, 09:08:46 PM one thing i forgot to explain!
another issue is that OpenCL fails to compile because it cannot find CL/cl.hpp , even if you put it there, it won't see it. (which i did of course!) so edit CMakeLists.txt the line that says: Code: elseif (BUNDLE STREQUAL "cudaminer") set it to OFF one less thing to worry about .... no OpenCL allowed here ;D --== EDIT ==-- Reading a LOT on the compiling errors about JSON, i found out that it is not a compiling error, the code IS compiling but it is not linking, so i am looking for references to unexisting libraries regarding json, but i am in the dark here, i have no idea where these libraries are. too bad you flash image get fucked up, can you use the one you give to us? or don't have it anymore?, if that is the case i can make it available, but my upload speed (256Kbps) is a pain and may take like 24 hours to upload. I have a separate high speed usb flash drive for kopiemtu 3 , from the compiemtu 2 mod #4 which is mining right now in ETH in all my rigs. on top of that, once i have an operational mining rig, i power it off and do an image file with dd or win32diskimage of every single miner flash drive. may look excessive but saves a lot of headaches when there is trouble, specially in my area where power outages are very frequent, and flash drives don't like it ;D Title: Re: [NEW] KopiemTu 3.0 - first NVIDIA USB linux distro is back :) Post by: jk_14 on October 17, 2016, 04:56:26 AM too bad you flash image get fucked up, can you use the one you give to us? or don't have it anymore?, if that is the case i can make it available, but my upload speed (256Kbps) is a pain and may take like 24 hours to upload. What kind of problem is with the image? I made two bug fixing in the fly, not significant, so I didn't change it to e.g. 3.0a, (just change typo: "rotate3 " to "rotate 3" in /etc/logrotate.conf ) but my new image is working...

Title: Re: [NEW] KopiemTu 3.0 - first NVIDIA USB linux distro is back :) Post by: PVmining on October 17, 2016, 08:32:38 AM it seems Cuda 8.0 is ok for my configuration... P.S. I have found some small bug, but easy to remove: after first boot monitor process should be stopped for 1-2 minutes... Its algo dependent. lbry, skein and blake for example are pretty well on cuda8 with the right miner (tpruvot's release). But some older algos or older miners could perform bad. Because of the monitor. I noticed this too. The webinterface was not shown after first start. After restart the monitor a few timews while switching some algos it worked. cheers!

did you try on kopiemtu 3 the last build of krnlx (silentarmy) for zcash? they advertised 91 sols per gtx 1070, i am getting 88 sol/s but GPU utilization is 89% so it is probably because i have a weak processor (AM1). i compiled on one of the GTX 970 Rigs that has a big-ass CPU, but it does not hash (always 0 sol/s so it is probably not made for older cards than 10xx ) Title: Re: KopiemTu 3.0 - zcash ~80 sols/s on 1070 - NVIDIA USB linux distro Post by: hoze on November 17, 2016, 09:48:50 PM Simple, Solid & Stable 64-bit Lubuntu based Linux for Nvidia 1000 series cards (370.28 driver) https://i.imgur.com/rfx55JWs.png (https://i.imgur.com/rfx55JW.png) Most Important Statement: If you are not familiar with linux - still there is no problem at all, because Midnight Commander ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Midnight_Commander ) is installed for you.

Primary reason for running linux is it is open source and thus more vetted. you can build your own if you are too paranoid, the scripts are open, the programs he use includes the source codes, so you can see how he did it. i can vouch for him and his work, but of course you don't know me either ;D i understand! (there are not a lot of people more paranoid than I am) all my miners runs on the previous kopiemtu version (2.0) mainly because it is heavily modified for my needs (automation, power metering, lcd display control, etc) EWBF miner is closed source, there is a ZCASH opensource solver opened recently by nicehash but does not have the miner part AFAIK, for what I've tested, EWBF closed source still is the best way to mine, and yes, i prefer to compile myself as well. (reason why i use genoil's for ethereum instead of claymore ;D , nah besides genoil's ETH miner works very well! and i already customized enough for my needs hehe) regards Indkt Title: Re: KopiemTu 3.0 - ethash & equihash - NVIDIA USB linux distro Post by: groovy1962 on March 13, 2017, 04:42:21 AM all sources are included, check /opt/kopiemtu directory Thanks, that's appreciated, and I'm sure this seems ungrateful or I may sound like a jerk. That's not my intention. Hosting on Github or Gitlab lets you get pull requests, and lets people look at the development of the software over time. I think it would benefit you by getting more people helping you. And it makes it easier to do releases and the like. (People can file issues and all that, a lot easier than this mega thread.) Anyway, I have downloaded it. I needed to get going this weekend so I've done that, and for my next rig I will use Kopiemtu and learn how it works.

I'm going to build two more rigs. I'm not satisfied with the motherboards I have now (they were leftover from another project). So, since these will be NVIDIA rigs, I would like to get recommendations from all of you. - What motherboards are you using with KopiemTu - Have you run 6 cards on your motherboard? (and if so, what did you need to change to enable it) - Any feedback or suggestions for what I should buy. I'm thinking of either spending real money and getting a Z270 (more PCIe lanes, even though I can't seem to make use of them) and thus maybe more future proof. Or going cheap and getting cheaper motherboards-- especially if I can only get 4 GPUs per board. Thanks in advance! (I would search but unfortunately board search doesn't work for me for some reason- takes me to empty google page.)

I am working on trying to control fan on the rigs due to shitty GPU fan speed curve on the bios. most cards runs at a ridiculous low fan speed to this is what i got so far: activate cool-bits 28: Code: service lightdm stop now we can use this to control the fan Code: nvidia-settings -a '[gpu:0]/GPUFanControlState=1' remember that once GPUFanControlState is set to 1, if you don't set GPUTargetFanSpeed the fan will remain off (0% ) even if the card is burning up!!! so remember to execute both at the same time or before the miner starts. now this works fantastically well when i have the monitor connected, but if i don't connect the monitor i get this error (this is where i'm stuck) Code: /usr/bin/nvidia-settings -a '[gpu:0]/GPUFanControlState=1' I tried to export DISPLAY=:0 but no success. any ideas? i don't know what to do, if the monitor is plugged in i can control it fine, but if not, i have that error. so far i tested it on only one GPU, dunno what will happens when i try to set all the cards but only one connected to the monitor. will i need HDMI dummy plugs? those are impossible to find here :( any ideas greatly appreciated ;D cheers indkt. Title: Re: KopiemTu 3.0 - ethash & equihash - NVIDIA USB linux distro Post by: induktor on March 26, 2017, 04:29:40 PM UPDATE on the fan control business ;D
I managed to force load X even without a monitor connected. procedure: this is to explain how to force EDID on XORG.conf so X will run even if you don't have a display attached to it. we use nvidia-settings from X, go to the panel configuration and top right (sometimes off screen) are the button: Acquire EDID save the file with the name of our monitor and exit. now we feed it into the xconfig: Code: nvidia-xconfig --custom-edid="GPU-0.HDMI-0:/home/live/Desktop/LG-MonitorEDID.bin" this will write the new custom edid setting into the xorg.conf (in /etc/X11/xorg.conf) NOTE: you need to specify properly the GPU number and port type, HDMI-0 or DFS-0 (for DVI) and the correct port number, check that on the nvidia-settings from X screen, that also means that you need one line like that for every GPU you have replacing GPU-0 for GPU-1 and so on. now Code: sync && reboot once it started you can see with nvidia-smi that /usr/bin/X is running! Ok that's what i have so far, now i tried to run the: nvidia-settings -a '[gpu:0]/GPUFanControlState=1' nvidia-settings -a '[fan:0]/GPUTargetFanSpeed=60' from /etc/rc.local, without sucess, i need to run it in a way that it will be seen from the X display, i have no idea how to do that (yet) i'll post as soon as i have that, if anyone reading this knows how, please post! :) NOTE that even if i have the monitor attached, if I ssh into the box from another computer, and try to run nvidia-settings it fails too!!, so there has to be a way to execute commands via SSH that can be seen by the OS as from X, i tried ssh -XY host but doesn't work either. Title: Re: KopiemTu 3.0 - ethash & equihash - NVIDIA USB linux distro Post by: induktor on March 26, 2017, 06:06:12 PM UPDATE2 manual control fan
I found it, it seems that you need permissions for connecting to the display, and actually the display is like a tcp socket :o so you need to specifiy it. (i know i'm clueless, but i can get rid of it by researching which is what i am doing hehe) this works (as user live): Code: nvidia-settings -c :0 -a [gpu:0]/GPUFanControlState=1 -a [fan:0]/GPUTargetFanSpeed=60 but if i try to run it as root, it doesn't. it seems that you cannot connect to the X display as root. i have seen references that configuring xhost + will allows you to do that, now... where THE HELL will i put xhost + command on?? WTF? i have no idea. i'll keep diggin'it and post here. but at least i can control the fan now from SSH (have to login as live though) but i wanted to automate it, and i can't until i found the way to run the command as root. EDIT: progress! as root: edit /etc/profile and add this at the botom. Code: export XAUTHORITY=/home/live/.Xauthority now i can run those commands as root via ssh, without the monitor connected ;D ;D however, if i put them on rc.local, they don't work, damn!, what am i missing?

I have now 65-70C and fan in 40-50% with bios settings, so not too slow it seems, and not too fast neither (for longer life of fans) Title: Re: KopiemTu 3.0 - ethash & equihash - NVIDIA USB linux distro Post by: induktor on March 27, 2017, 10:54:10 PM Hi jk_14
evga sc operates at 72 C (with 25C ambient) and the fan is at 28 %, shittiest temperature curve i have ever seen. even worst than gigabyte, so far the best cooling solution is the asus strix. Now i am at 55% fan, manual speed and card is at 56C, huge difference! if i go up to 60% fan, temp lowers even more, to 53C but at 60% the fan starts to make some noise (nothing unbearable but noticeable, at 55% does not). i think 70C is insane, it will kill the GPU in less than a year, keep in mind it's not he gpu but the mem and even more, the vrm/mosfets that usually are 20C above the temp of the gpu core, very close to the mosfet limit (max junction temp). you know me, i babysit my cards ;D ;D i am happy if they are below 60C, anything above it, it triggers my OCD rig temp! ;D btw: still haven't found a way to automate it, no matter where i put it, it will not auto execute, i have to manually ssh into the box, and run the script i made for it Code: ./speedset 55 :) cheers indkt.

I'm trying to run KopiemTu with 2 GTX 1070 FE. Unfortunately every few minutes it switches algo and after few more minutes it restarts. Also in web interface there is "2 GPUs not OK". Also tried with only 1 GPU. Same behaviour. I've tried to lower the power in /root/powerlimit.conf. Same behaviour. I've noticed that /tmp/failover and /tmp/done files do appear. Killing monitor seems to stop the algo switching and rebooting. Any idea how to solve this? Thanks, Lastbit Title: Re: KopiemTu 3.0 - ethash & equihash - NVIDIA USB linux distro Post by: jk_14 on March 28, 2017, 07:59:31 AM Hi jk_14, I'm trying to run KopiemTu with 2 GTX 1070 FE.

Thanks, Lastbit probably your ccminer produce output, what monitor is not able to properly discover hashrates from, just: monitor stop (and remove files in /tmp like above: failover done reboot it definitely should correct that issue, while killing monitor never stop the mining...) P.S. in fact, there is so many new syntax in different ccminer clones, that monitor should be rewritten long time ago (instead of patching it) I will do it some day - as it is not comfortable for me, too :) Title: Re: KopiemTu 3.0 - ethash & equihash - NVIDIA USB linux distro Post by: lastbit on March 28, 2017, 11:52:58 AM Thanks jk_14!

Thanks again, Alex Title: Re: KopiemTu 3.0 - ethash & equihash - NVIDIA USB linux distro Post by: induktor on April 28, 2017, 03:39:07 AM The idea of Kopiemtu is to NOT use a GUI, GUI requires resources, and adds unnecessary instability.
command line is the way to go for maximum efficiency. so, login as root on the box, and do ipconfig | grep addr copy that address (192.168.0.22 for example, yours would be different) now get PUTTY (it's a free remote SSH tool, to connect to linux boxes from windows machines) use putty to connect to the box from your windows machine, entering the ip address, user & pass (user always as root) also get winscp, it's like a file copy utility, you get one screen is windows the other screen is the remote linux box, useful to edit configuration files from the linux box from the windows machine, it would make your life A LOT EASIER if you are not a linux person :) it's also free, type of connection would be scp. ok, back to business you need to create a file in /etc/kopiemtu with the extension .conf that would represent every coin you are going to make. i recommend look at the files that are already there, and modify them with your data (pool, wallet addr, coin, etc) following the format in the example. then from the command line mine stop mine switch several times until you get the file with the name of the one you have edited mine start that will start the miner automagically note , you'll need to have the proper miner for your coin if the coin is not supported obviously will not work until you install, compile and configure the miner in the box,so better to mine a coin that it's already supported. ok, you got enough to get your hands dirty, try all that and post back. cya indkt.

1: i installed the ewbf miner , and start it on 2 of my rigs and the 2 have worked , than i try to rechange to lbry and one of the rig doenst seem to start ( i reboot couple time and still the same ) on top of its says 6 gpu not OK. i really dont know why i made nothing wrong i think !!! is there a command to make them work ??? while i was writting the post the miner has started to mine ( maybe i needed to wait a little bit more !!! ) but the 6 GPU NOT OK still appear but i have hashrate !!! do you know why Kopiem say their not OK ???http://hpics.li/bab18e6 2: i tryed to place KopiemTu on my gigabyte 1060 rig on gigabyte mobo that was working good on windows but the rig dont want to boot its always stopping at ''R 4 line'' .

Did this happens to someone ?? i tryed on hdd and ssd multiple time and still the same, tryed to change uefi and legacy too and still the same !!!!http://hpics.li/23ab800 Hi don't worry about the GPU NOT OK in this specific case es because of the hash threshold, jk_14 programmed a threshold, if the hashing is below a certain level, it will detect as the GPU is fucked up and report as "not ok" i will take a look at the code later, but you have hash, the temperatures indicates that all the gpus are working so, don't worry, it's just the hash detection threshold. (or the miner has different output (which is a pain to program because every miner dev nowadays code the output the way they like, instead of use a standard hehe) about the second question: use usb flash drive disable UEFI (set to legacy) disable secure boot (se to non-windows OS) disable USB 3.0 disable SATA/AHCI interfase completely connect flash drive on a usb 2.0 (even if the flash drive is 3.0, doesn't matter) don't use kingston flash drives, they SUCK, use sandisk / adata, they seems to be the best. don't use 16x risers, use only 1x Risers with power. try that and post back :) cheers indkt Title: Re: KopiemTu 3.0 - ethash & equihash - NVIDIA USB linux distro Post by: alexvachon66 on May 01, 2017, 11:13:08 PM Its still not working really i cant figure out why !!!

If you have trouble with kopiemtu switching coins, stop the monitor (service monitor stop i think it is ) this also will stop some other functionality like restarting the miner if it stops working (which almost never happens anyway, i have it disabled) but it would prevent the coin switching which is a pain when it does not detect the hashrate like in your case (gpu not ok thing). for help on how to configure on a specific pool, go to the pool, and look for help section, 90% of the pools have examples on how to configure every miner. in the case of zcash , since the miner is very different from ccminer, it is very likely that you will need to modify by hand miner.sh in /opt/kopiemtu and add a line with the specific command of the miner. if this is the case, analyze if it worth the trouble, unless you have good understanding of linux, it would be a pain to do so. i have heavily modified kopiemtu 2.0 (to the extent that i no longer be able to use kopiemtu 3.0 because most of my crap does not compile on it hehe) so i cannot give you specific , clear commands to execute, sorry :( if the zcash miner is installed in kopiemtu 3.0 , then it's easier, just look on the pool help so you can know how to configure it, also every pool has it's thread here in bitcointalk. sorry i cannot help you more on this cya indkt.

I saw this and downloading it now. However, quick question; can I use it on a GEForce 8400GS? Its an old piece of Hardware, which is lying around and wanted to check it out. And would like to run it on a VM. Thanks, Title: Re: KopiemTu 3.0 - ethash & equihash - NVIDIA USB linux distro Post by: induktor on July 01, 2017, 04:06:30 AM hey guys. I'm back from the dead after almost a year. Yup, the BTC and pinkcoin pump brought me back :) Luckily I found some old coins lying around in backed up wallets :) Woooow hashbrown9000 !!! nice to have you back! it's been a while! :) Looking to build just one rig to get started again. Still have an old Biostar H81 Hifi board that's still working great as my main computer. Might turn it into a rig and move to a laptop now. Do the old cards (950, 960, 970, 980) still work with the new kopiemtu? Any suggestions on what to mine to hold long-term? you can use the kopiemtu 2.0 (my mod#3 was made for the 970 AFAIR), not sure about the kopiemtu 3, but it should work fine with 970 and 980, i don't think they will work with the other low end cards. still i would recommend, that, as soon as you can, sell them, and get 1060, 1070 and 1080s because the power efficiency is incredible. good to have you back! hope you're ok and making big bucks ;D cheers! indkt Title: Re: KopiemTu 3.0 - ethash & equihash - NVIDIA USB linux distro Post by: induktor on July 01, 2017, 04:09:29 AM Hi OP, HiI saw this and downloading it now.

I have not tried yet but I think if Kopiem it's derived from Lubuntu (Ubuntu) with that drivers , can be upgraded. But I was interested if i make these changes, monitors from GUI still work? ... and if it's possible to change the miner from ccminer to claymore ... and the monitor still works ...

KopiemTu is based on nvidia drivers and NVIDIA utils.I have not tried yet but I think if Kopiem it's derived from Lubuntu (Ubuntu) with that drivers , can be upgraded. But I was interested if i make these changes, monitors from GUI still work? ... and if it's possible to change the miner from ccminer to claymore ... and the monitor still works ... It do not support AMD ... even if you install the drivers, I think that the monitoring will not work because it's not plugged to amd tools to list gpu and manage them. Probably JK can confirm ?

I get an error about "can't connect to Mir" when I'm trying to change the values on the cards - if anything I want to underclock them instead of overclocking them, as Kopiemtu is overworking the cards with the default settings & I'm getting constant reboots. I've changed the powerlimit, but it isn't enough. Gone back to Windows for now, but can definitely see the advantage of a Linux based system. Will also revisit this next weekend! Appreciate your help! Title: Re: KopiemTu 3.0 - ethash & equihash - NVIDIA USB linux distro Post by: Quixote_55 on July 12, 2017, 06:24:03 PM Had an issue I cannot figure out how to resolve. Running 3.0 with a 750ti mining rig. I did the thing listed here to remove the ccminer_all and point it at ccminer to support the older cards. Works great for most coins except for two. If I try to mine Monero or Decred I get an error when I start miners that the power limit of 150W is too high. (I agree 150w is way too high an upper limit for 750ti cards.) Can I change this in the .conf files? Or do I have to go elsewhere? I think the error message said it expects something between 30-50w or something in that range. I spent a lot of time searching these forums but I am not able to figure out how to change this. Thanks in advance. Quixote PS all the various miners listed in the tips that point to mbl.cash domains have died it seems. Anyone know an alternate host site? Was just trying to get my rig setup to be able to mine a handful of altcoins I think could maybe have legs so I can build up a small stake of each.

Its ccminer on kopiemtu 3.0. Whatever version comes with that.
I just need to tell it to set the lower powerlimit of 35-40w instead of what seems to be defaulting to 150w in the miner. Is there any way to change that limit lower when I launch ccminer was my question so that it won't just fail to even start the mining process. Or if ccminer will not support mining those coins on a 750ti rig then so be it. So ccminer defaults are trying to set power limit of 150w, I want to find out how to change that and set a lower limit for this rig since the cards are nowhere near that power usage and there is some safeguard that only allows the 30-50w range for those cards.

most of the issues are library related and GCC 6 which most miners dont't like ;D my version will not be as nice on the web page, as the Kopiemtu 3.0, but it will have the same functionality (well, no master-slave commands but other than that....) including GUI administration via VNC / RDP.
