The major fear here is infinite rolling reboots. But I am also just a hardware guy, more of a hobbyist so I am learning best I can.
Not new to Ubuntu, just busy as are we all and I get where I can.
Of course I would test it some weeks before  and it's not a problem to have it as an option (only ready to activate) could you check your .bash_history for that etminer compilation details ? |

UPDATE: I chated with Genoil and he has no idea about the linkling errors, so we are in the dark here, i am doing my best but, i am a hardware guy  my coding skills are limited hehe. and I'm a bit busy right now... one hint regarding monitor page - how to quickly discover that something goes wrong with GPU. e.g.: low range temperature is zero and system load is high system restart seems to be the unfailing solution (even syslog message propose that) - so I'm thinking about automatic detection & restart in such case |

v I have a MSi P67A-GD65 mother board and 5 GTX 1070 GPU's. I'm able to attach and mine with 4 mother board but when I try to use all 5 I have problems. I have looked all over the internet and tried numerous things to solve the problem like:
- Plugging them in one by one
- Using PCI risers on all 5 cards
- Upgrading from windows 7 to 10
- Un-installing then re installing the driver
I just can't seem to get all 5 GPUs to work. Is it possible the mother board can't use 5 GPU's even though it has 2x 16x and 3x express PCi slots?
If anyone has any tips or ideas to get all 5 gpu's running I would be very grateful.
Upgrade from Windows to KopiemTu: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=520998.0make flash usb (16GB), boot, and check: root@kopiemtu:~# lspci | grep VGA

If you will see 5x 1070 cards - you have problem with Windows (so don't use it ) If you will see 4x 1070 cards - go into a BIOS and play with it |

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... I'm just re-downloading current image to see if I have any problems. |

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
V8.0.26 is RC (release candidate) V8.0.44 is official Cuda 8.0 btw: If you want newer 367 driver, in V8.0.44 driver 367.46 is included, but I decided to use 370.28 due to O/C in description as far as I remember: Ubuntu 14.04 with Cuda 8 RC was OK for ethminer, the problem was with 16.04.1 and Cuda 8 RC (and Cuda 8 official) my shortcut was to move compiled ethminer under 14.04 and include missing libraries you can check the result if you run ethminer in v3.0 - it's not working still, one of libraries has still unresolved symbols (by mistake I overrided my flash usb with old distro and compiled ethminer - it prevent me a bit solving it further...) I installed gcc 4.9: root@kopiemtu:~# update-alternatives --config gcc
There are 2 choices for the alternative gcc (providing /usr/bin/gcc).
Selection Path Priority Status
------------------------------------------------------------
0 /usr/bin/gcc-5 50 auto mode
* 1 /usr/bin/gcc-4.9 49 manual mode
2 /usr/bin/gcc-5 50 manual mode
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. |

hey jk! 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: - using the "nvidia-smi -pl" function within the mining conf. I use this often to get a good balance for hash & wattage.
- showing the wattage in the http status monitor too.
- cuda8 is not faster in general. an additional cuda7.5 would not hurt.
- compute_61 is slower in every case I know. I would suggest to focus on 52 for the pascal cards.
- using yiimp as a LBRY donation pool and directly supporting epsylon3 with this choice
- I see ETH is on you todo list?
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.jpegbut you have sent me this: 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? ) |

WOW! WHAT a GOOD NEWS! JK_14 you are a genius! I will tested it tonight. I have completely modded your Kopiemtu 2.0, Driver 376.44, CUDA 8, ccminer (TPRUVOT and SP) and GENOIL'S ethminer (117 works, 119 does not compile no matter what i do ) 3x GTX 1070 working very well on AM1 low power motherboards. but of course it is a mod (a very VERY jerry rigged mod hehe), not the real thing what OS is this one based on? Lubuntu 16.04 ?, i will tested it tonight and try to include ethminer (never compiled ethminer on 16.04) Hi, Induktor! Excuse me for that v3.0 ninja launch - that's because I discovered I love GTX 1070 as much as 750Ti long time ago Great that you have some experiences with ethminer - I'm sure together we will solve that small issue, under current Lubuntu 16.04.1 and CUDA 8. and I have the proof that not me, but you are genius, in fact voila: https://archive.litecointalk.org/index.php?topic=16800.msg277720#msg277720https://archive.litecointalk.org/index.php?topic=16800.msg277876#msg277876haha  |

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 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 |

uploading... EDIT: bug fixing... First post updated, only file image is missing yet: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=520998Uploading 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 rm ccminer
ln -s ccminer_all 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: root@sysresccd /root % partx /dev/sdb
NR START END SECTORS SIZE NAME UUID
1 2048 821247 819200 400M
2 821248 25397247 24576000 11.7G
3 25397248 29493247 4096000 2G
root@sysresccd /root %
root@sysresccd /root % dd if=/dev/sdb of=/dev/sda bs=1M count=14401
- 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: dd if=kopiemtu-3.0.img of=/dev/sdb bs=1M count=14401 &
dd if=kopiemtu-3.0.img of=/dev/sdc bs=1M count=14401 &
dd if=kopiemtu-3.0.img of=/dev/sdd bs=1M count=14401 &
...
2. repair KopiemTu filesystems if broken (in case of lack of power, etc) fsck -y /dev/sda1
fsck -y /dev/sda2
fsck -y /dev/sda3

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 New master rig main page:  I will send you soon an early access link (free of charge ) just to take a closer look into a new version - and your feedback would be great Things onboard: root@kopiemtu:~#

the linux version directly is impossible to compile it on lubuntu 14.04, I think that maybe will work with never versions of gcc, make, etc, so i will install the new lubuntu 16, try again and post results and procedure.
Have you tried my linux build? https://github.com/nerdralph/ethminer-nr/tree/110/releasesHi, is there anybody, who succesfully compiled ethminer under Ubuntu 16.04.1 and Cuda 8.0 ? I'm using gcc-4.9, and I have some errors yet... |

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? |

I gave almost the same amount of money to him as sp and wolf, in donations. You?
Who me? in usd $400 usd so far. but I'm sure there are some guys seriously considering recently the payment of 0.1btc (and 3.33% fee) for SP-MOD - and now won't donate a single satoshi for something what is: a) better b) coherent with whole bitcoin idea (i.e. opensource model) Sad |

donate guys !
This guy deserves a real thank you, in form of BTC's
it's still waiting for your donations! |

i made the binary today, so, i dont mine with it since 4 but i was mining/testing with this kernel code this week yes else what did you eat yesterday ? +10% hashrate on my 1070, with the same power limit so I will send you 10% of my today profit to your btc address - it's definitely yours (and all of you: just do the same!) |

Same here
Stratum authentication failed
