Easy Linux DiabloMiner GPU Tutorial

[DHOT]

Hello Everyone! I decided to create a short and simple Tutorial for Linux.
Lets get started.

1. Open a terminal and use the cd command to navigate to a folder of your choice.
2. Into this terminal you have to type this to download the miner. In this case we use the DiabloMiner.

Code:

wget http://adterrasperaspera.com/images/DiabloMiner.zip

3. After the Download has finished you can use the unzip command to unzip the file.

Code:

unzip DiabloMiner.zip

4. Use the cd command now to get into the DiabloMiner directory

Code:

cd DiabloMiner

5. You can now create a startscript. Please edit the directory to your DiabloMiner directory!

Solomining (If you want to use Solomining edit the bitcoin.conf):

Code:

cd ~/bitcoin/DiabloMiner
./DiabloMiner-Linux.sh -u YOUR_USERNAME -p YOUR_PASSWORD

Poolmining:

Code:

cd ~/bitcoin/DiabloMiner
./DiabloMiner-Linux.sh -u YOUR_USERNAME -p YOUR_PASSWORD -o YOUR_POOLHOST -r PORT

6. Save the script as .sh
7. Now you're finished and able to mine Bitcoins. Start the script and choose to run in terminal. Thats all

If you found this post helpful, donate Bitcoins so i can buy me some beer! 1CgQ4KQN4nKskL2GRGnLyogpaD2ZYeBGcp

I am trying to get mining up on my linux server running a NVIDIA GeForce 7600 GS graphics card and running Kubuntu 12.04.

When I follow the command specified in your post I get the following error:
