is the version v0019 the latest stable release?

[kk003]

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?)

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

Yes, you are right.

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

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 ....

[kk003]

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.

Guys theres  a fork to nvOC if you guys have not been informed it is located in our Discord channel "You can find the link on first post" or also at the nvOC website: http://nvoc-mining-os.com/ you have a few options to pick from now second fork includes the following:

Automatic intensity adjuster for the miners to hash as fast as your card will allow it
Automatic Overclocker to overclock your cards to perfection
Enhanced watchdog with automatic crash correcter if something where to happen it will try to correct it if not reboot
Enhanced Temp Control now  doesnt re adjust temps and power settings depending on what algo is switches too this prevents crashes even further
Many bug fixes that where plagueing previous nvoc releases
Many coins added
Dual windows so that you can see any errors that may have happened while loading miner and another screen for the miner window.
Dyanmic log system shows you everything that is going on with the system at anytime by typing m_logs in quake or terminal
Remote Bash system allows the miner to be controlled via a remote bash located elsewhere either online or locally
and many more bugs fixes and addons check the discord or nvoc website for more details



This version of nvOC is leaning towards a cloud based system where you can control all your miners via a centralized web portal where you only need to edit two files before booting up the miner and the rest is done online.

Thanks to all contributors on this website as well for support leenoox pampami damnmad jeep maxximus and the rest of you and of course fullzero!

I don't get what you say
Dropbox linked file is a bash script with no extensions
You just download and run it as I wrote for 19-2 versions, it will put the latest 0.5.7 dstm to it's location.

I think you started rig with auto switch on and then edited 1bash.
Just stop auto switch

Code:

pkill -f 8wtm

thx for the quick reply.

Unfortunately thats not the case.... Rig isn't stable for now (OC testing ) so it restarted itself several times.... and still changing coins.... will investigate further...

[thaelin]

    Not sure just yet but I think that if you leave what to mine active and  auto switch off
you will restart your machine each time a better coin is found. Was watching things last
night and it did a switch and a bit later a reboot for what I could find no reason. That will
have to be looked more into when I get home later.

For sure tho, ROCK SOLID MINER guys.  Soon as I find a way to sell off the BTG coins
reliably I am going to turn this loose to make the choices for me for the best profits.
