Claymore's Dual Ethereum AMD+NVIDIA GPU Miner v15.0 (Windows/Linux)

[glstewart]

Well I'm very new to ubuntu, but I'm moving to it permanently now.
Honestly I'm not sure what I did to get it working eventually, a heck of a lot googling and installing packages.

from a shell:

dpkg -l libcurl4
dpkg -l libcurl3

The one that is installed will list the version.  The one that is not will simply say "<none>" for version.

Looks like only libcurl3 is installed

Yeah, which is a valid workaround for dedicated mining rigs.  But for a desktop, a lot of the most recent packages require libcurl4 instead.  For myself virtualbox and obs are the main conflicts.

I have also upgraded to Ubuntu 18.04 and have lost the ability to run ethdcrminer64:

Code:

./ethdcrminer64: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcurl.so.4: version `CURL_OPENSSL_3' not found (required by ./ethdcrminer64)

Downgrading from libcurl4 to libcurl3 would be too disruptive:

Code:

sudo apt-get install libcurl3

Is there any hope of Claymore resolving this issue? If not, I'll move to another miner.

use abcd

a = gpu10
b = gpu11

that's it? 

Why i didnt think of that - haha

thank you very much

Anyone else getting virus warning using claymore miner and AVG/virusprog? i get warning that api.infura.io was infected and have been stopped

Have you read the first post by Claymore? It covers the virus warning etc. You need to add an exception to your virus program. If you don't trust him/the miner, don't run it.

[kenron]

i am fully aware of claymores might be taken as a virus, i have used it for a long time, but API.INFURA.IO as i can see it has to do with secure connection. and suddenly alot has gotten the warning: https://www.reddit.com/r/Metamask/comments/8l4mvi/avg_detects_virus_when_metamaskplugin_is_enabled/

Yeah, sorry, I see your point.

Which version?

[androstan1234]

There was a virus using claymore to mine eth on my cpu today.  I use -mport 0.  I leave windows defender turned on.

WOW, that would be quite a trick, as Claymore is not a CPU mining application to start with.
Check your details, check your post, and suggest you correct the details, or better still, delete it.

lol

[iSuX]

use abcd

Minor correction here, you can use "abc" but not "d"

This poses a problem, if you have a 13GPU rig, and use altnum -1 or altnum -3
 to change from first GPU=0 to first GPU=1
You loose the ability in the console to toggle GPU 13 off/on, (you can still do this in ethman of course).

Small bug for Mr Claymore.

Happy mining everyone.

[mine_phun]

Sorry guys, but this now seems more relevant, since XVG mining is down at the moment, so i post again.

Hi guys,which coin is worth in dual mining?

That depends on what coin you mine. XVG / XSH have both been halved, so the profit is a bit low.

Your best options according to Whattomine are:

1st : ETH + SmartCash ( Keccak )
2nd : ETH + Maxcoin ( Keccak )
3rd : ETH + Verge / Blake2s

NLPool.nl is currently the only Yiimp pool with a working Smartcash implementation, plus we have fixed the Keccak implementation on Yiimp, so no rejected shares. Also we are an autoexchange pool, so you can use an LTC wallet to mine the Smartcash or Maxcoin coins  

The only disadvantage of Keccak is that your powersupply needs to work a bit harder. It is a bit more intense then Blake2s, so not all rigs are capable of mining ..... or another option when you have 13 GPU's and limited power is to use 11 GPU's and leave 2 GPU's solo.

If you need more help we are @ Telegram > t.me/nlpool

Nothing to worry about, this is totally normal.
Look back through your old logs, (use grep for example), and you'll see it's a regular event in the log.
Mr Claymore would be the only person who can explain why he's programmed this, but no doubt there is a logical reason.

Side note: Generally, (assuming the programmer is not a total moron), log entries will have some prefix, or suffix, "warning", "error", "OK", "good" etc etc, which makes life easier when searching logs for problem events, or notable events you might like to check on.

Conversely, if you don't see such annotations, and the log entry is not self explanatory, you can generally ignore such entries. (as in they are not things you need to worry about).

And No, it's not a virus either.

After these error, there is notification on windows that say : "Display driver failed to start;using microsoft basic display driver instead; check windows update for newer display driver"
I check it and all are updated
what's the problem?

This looks like an Nvidia driver crash.
I'm not mining with Nvidia, but if you look back through your log, you will probably see (prior to this), Claymore is querying the GPU temperatures, and is expecting an ACK, I expect your log will show something like a GPU number, followed by temperature value, and possibly fan speed.

What you see here is a failure to read out that data, and as that is coming via the Nvidia driver, and looking at the following entries, that would support the theory the driver has unloaded or crashedout.

Some things to try.

Remove all your GPU except 1.
Download DDU,

http://www.guru3d.com/files-details/display-driver-uninstaller-download.html

Boot Win10 to safemode, (CTRL+SHIFT+restart), select troubleshoot, advanced, (sad that ms see that as advanced, lol), startup options, and on restart, numeric key 4 will enable safemode boot.
Run DDU, default options, it will remove your Nvida display drivers, reboot to windows, and install Nvidia.

Select a custom install, and install only the display driver, (you can skip audio, and experience for example), Less crap to worry about if things don't run with stability later.

After install, reboot, and run claymore, (single GPU), and see if that works.

BTW: Windows will fallback on the basic display driver, and in cases where it does not know of, (have installed), the vendors driver.
Because you are seeing this happen, AND you clearly DO HAVE the Nvidia driver installed, (otherwise Claymore would bombout early init), then I suspect you have a corrupt install, reg entry somewhere.

It's a weird one though, usually windows doesn't gracefully unload a peripheral driver if it's being used, and you'll get some kind of BSOD.

Interesting situation, please feedback how you get on.
Good luck with it too btw.
Cheers

hi , i have 100% rejected for xvg
what I am doing wrong

Are you sure about your ETH address?
That looks malformed to me.

There should not be a /3 in that string.

Update: looking at this some more, I don't recall "C=" or in fact that kind of method is being used by Mr Claymore.
Note his syntax is a space and minus to indicate the next parameter, and I don't recall "C" in the documentation, nor the employment of the  =.

I could be wrong though, where did you get that config from?


Ahh ok, sorry, are you meaning your password is actually c=XVG?

That's a cheap hack I guess, kind of bizarre though, as the pool should do that via the address or the port.

Anyway, some things to think about.
Good luck.

Thanks iSuX.  I checked old logs and see that this event is in all of them.  I never noticed it before.  I was experiencing system instability yesterday, checked the log, saw this event, assumed it was a virus, ran virus scanner, removed viruses, and system went back to stable.  IDK how I got a virus, but thanks for pointing out that it's not related to the cpu share.

Like Snake, I would appreciate an explanation from Claymore for why the program is checking for eth shares on the CPU.  Maybe it's checking for a virus mining on the cpu?
