[OS] nvOC easy-to-use Linux Nvidia Mining

[Bibi187]

Hi guys,

maybe someone can help me.

I am actually mining lyra2v2 algo.

I can grab maximum hashrate from ASccminer, but it seems after some running time i get a massive lost "reported hashrate" on pool, from 326mh to 170ms or less, my miner seems fine steal working report 326mh/s but on pool is another case ...

I test it on multi pool it seems that from miner it self any information about this issue ?

Do you recommend me another miner to use for lyra2v2 ?

I think you 'll have your response on this thread :

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=472510.5180 (last 5 or 10 pages back from page 260)

Recently Papami add nanashi ccminer, and vertminer. I think you should try theses miners and return you experiences of them on this thread.

See you.

Thanks for reply

I actually compiling Nanashi and give a try asap, i am on nvOC0019

So far i see fixed diff fix issue. But i will test this new one!

Vertminer is only for Vertcoin ?

EDIT : Alexis miner stay top place, i grab more hashrate with this one. I will test with latest driver.

For lyra2rev2 don't count on miner hash rate, pool usually shows some where between 20 to 40 % less
Test miners with shown hash rate on pool

Hey Papampi,

thanks for reply !

Well it seems you are right, my reported hashrate is like 323mh/s but on pool i have a median about 298mh/s. This issue is related to every miner on lyra2v2 algo ?

I will give a try to Nanashi miner less hashrate on miner something like 309mh/s but maybe pool will give me more return.

Once again thanks for your time

There are lots of talks about it in miningpoolhub thread almost started at page 243
Some one even tested a comparison with suprnova and miningpoolhub to see if both pools are same.
Miningpoolhub admin says some miners are better but I totally gave up on lyra2rev2

on 1.4 everything worked OK.
after update I have:

1. current version:

nvOC_1bash_ver="v0019-2.0.001"   # Do not edit this


2. Auto temp is OFF, because it reboots rig immediately

3. Wdog starts, but have to ctrl+c, otherwise it restarts miner and after that restarts rig:

Mon Dec 11 19:37:02 MST 2017 - reboot in 10 seconds


4. If I ctrl+c wdog, than miner continues working as if nothing happened:

2017-12-11 07:35:51 PM|#  zm 0.5.6

2017-12-11 07:35:51 PM|#  GPU0 + GeForce GTX 1050 Ti      MB: 4037  PCI: 1:0

2017-12-11 07:35:51 PM|#  GPU1 + GeForce GTX 1050 Ti      MB: 4038  PCI: 2:0

2017-12-11 07:35:51 PM|#  GPU2 + GeForce GTX 1050 Ti      MB: 4038  PCI: 3:0

2017-12-11 07:35:51 PM|#  GPU3 + GeForce GTX 1050 Ti      MB: 4038  PCI: 4:0

2017-12-11 07:35:51 PM|#  GPU4 + GeForce GTX 1050 Ti      MB: 4038  PCI: 5:0

2017-12-11 07:35:51 PM|#  GPU5 + GeForce GTX 1050 Ti      MB: 4038  PCI: 6:0

I think leenoox solved 1050 ti
Open 5watchdog and check if you have v0009

Code:

# v=0009 : leenoox: Workaround for some 1050's reporting "Unknown" or "ERR" when power.draw is queried from nvidi-smi

if not update to latest by running the latest update script again

Can you update to the latest version as papampi suggested and post if it's working after the update. If not I will revisit this again.

Also please post the output from

Code:

./nvOC gpuinfo

and version of 5watchdog and 6tempcontrol

Thanks

Hi leenox,
expireincing almost same problem (just with wdog problem, autotemp is ok), check pls my screenshot at http://prntscr.com/hn5lhy
tired looking for the problem...

Does anyone know how to make it not launch 1bash or anything else special?

I want to use this just as a linux distro that has all the GPU drivers installed, then use my own CUDA programs.

I emptied the contents of 1bash, 2unix and so forth but when it boots it still opens a gnome terminal and spins the CPU 100% trying to relaunch the NVOC scripts. I can manually close the terminal and everything seems OK but if I could figure out how to avoid calling it in the first place it would work much better.

Does anyone know where the initial call is that linux first runs to invoke the initial NVOC script on boot?

(I saw a similar question had been asked before at https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1854250.msg24544323#msg24544323

However, the replies were not helpful so maybe there is someone new who has found a solution to this more recently?)

papampi, leenoox

did you try update script (https://github.com/papampi/nvOC_by_fullzero_Community_Release/blob/19.2/nvOC-19-2-update) yourself?
I did fresh install of nvOC 19-1.4 and than applied the update script several times during past week, first time when script was about
350 lines and the last yesterday 502 lines. Often it works strange, for example last time ZM and Claymore didn't start after update,
when I checked why, I found that the corresponding folders "latest" (in ZM's folder and Claymore's one) were empty, may be some other
folders are empty too, cause papampi WTM doesn't work (it does on 1.4), wdog reboots rig when all card are happily mining, temp control
doesn't read temps and tries to reboot rig, many things are broken. May be its because of the update script working wrong? May be its
time to give updated image for beta testing?

I think I fixed it
Can you run the script again and see if it solve your problem or not

At your own risk try to move gnome-terminal.desktop and guake_guake.desktop from /home/m1/.config/autostart and reboot:

Code:

move /home/m1/.config/autostart/guake_guake.desktop /home/m1/guake_guake.desktop.backup
move /home/m1/.config/autostart/gnome-terminal.desktop /home/m1/gnome-terminal.desktop.backup

[kk003]

Yes, you are right.

Well for 24 hours now, Nanashi miner give me stable result on pool.

I use fixed diff so maybe that fix issue about hashrate report and hashrate on pool.

Thanks once again for your time.

how to restore lost password? not default one ....

how to restore lost password? not default one ....

try login as root (I think pass is miner1). Then:

Code:

passwd m1

If you longed in as other user try:

Code:

sudo passwd m1

or

Code:

su -l

then enter password for root (I think pass is miner1) and:

Code:

passwd m1

Problem is I dont think root password is enabled by default.
I remember When I first wanted to change it, it didn't asked me for old password, not sure...

V00019-2 Community release has  a new option: AUTO_START_MINER=YES, NO
May be it can help you

I'm having issues with the 19-2 test release and network stability. Not sure quite sure what is going on and it has happened twice so far.

My home router will lose internet connectivity after a period of time (12 hours first time, ~5 hours second time) since updating to the tested release. When I remove the wired connections (clients running 19-2) from my router that goes to the rigs the internet will immediately go back online. Not sure where to check for logs regarding this as the entire router (wifi and wired) loses internet connection.

Version:

Code:

nvOC_1bash_ver="v0019-2.0.001"   # Do not edit this

Is there a way to downgrade the client without imaging the hard drive/usb?

Your issue can not be update problem as only some scripts changed, but all your old files are stored in /home/m1/backups/old_to19_2

This went on for 6 disconnects total, stumped I sent logs from my router to the manufacturer and fresh installed 19-1.4 on all of the machines that were updated and router has yet disconnected from internet.

It's weird because it wasn't my modem, I'd try the connection from the modem directly and it worked fine but while the rigs with 19-2 on it, the internet would not work at all. Instead it would not work until all of the 19-2 rigs were either disconnected physically from the router or once all of them have been rebooted.

I'm not worried about it, just letting you know or the community (Manufacturer's response was a copy/paste of crap newbie instructions of updating firmware and resetting to factory settings). I'll do a fresh install of version 19-2 when the official version is released on one of my machines and let it go for a few days and slowly update 1 by 1.

I have heard of a similar problem before with Ubuntu:

https://superuser.com/questions/183982/ubuntu-server-9-04-computer-freezes-the-entire-network-periodically

As far as I know, the only "changes" made in 19-2.0 that could be responsible for this are normal Ubuntu updates made in the upgrade script. As such, the next time you try the upgrade, change this line of the script and see if it resolves the issue:

Code:

sudo -- sh -c 'apt update; apt upgrade -y; apt autoremove -y; apt autoclean -y; sudo apt install -y moreutils gawk'

to

Code:

sudo -- sh -c 'sudo apt install -y moreutils gawk'

That will allow you to upgrade to 19-2.0 without updating the underlying Ubuntu OS.

Let us know how it goes.

Thank you Stubo, I'll try this out early next week when I get home!

Is the pool address correct ?
No need to add stratum+tcp:// to pool address any more

But we do if we are still on 19-1.4, correct? Specifically curious about using suprnova.cc to mine BTG.  Thanks

Edit: Disregard. The answer is yes, or at least it is working with it on.
