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

[papampi]

Respectfully request to add BTG! (Bitcoin gold)

Thank you for this amazing Ubuntu build!

Already included in v0019-2.0, look at your 1bash

Update to 19-2.0:

Code:

cd /home/m1/Downloads
wget https://www.dropbox.com/s/cyo86xoqotplges/nvOC-19-2-update
bash /home/m1/Downloads/nvOC-19-2-update

[NameTaken]

Code:

wget -O- https://www.dropbox.com/s/c3uitjc2zcy0yw5/ccminer-2.2.4-tpruvot.tar.gz | tar -xzC /home/m1/TPccminer/ --strip 1  ccminer-2.2.4-tpruvot/ccminer

lol ... I fix the update script with your suggestion.
Didn't want to replace the users current miner before they test it


Now that you bring it up, any way not to double show echo lines with "set -x"

Maybe redirect echo STDOUT to /dev/null? A very useful site I use to check BASH syntax is https://www.shellcheck.net/.

Change Log:

Code:

- fixed issue with rejected shares in ETH+SIA mode for Vega cards.
- improved watchdog for temperature/fan management thread.

How do I apply overclocks without having to restart the entire machine? I'm thinking I can abuse the current watchdog but I don't want to mess things up further.

Can someone educate me as to what makes a motherboard "supported" or not?

I don't know squat about mining generally, but in building basic linux servers over the years I've never really been concerned with motherboard support.

I ask because I was considering playing around with nvOC on an old HP linux server with a single 1050ti I had laying around.  Wanted to get familiar with nvOC working with nvidia cards before I buy and build out a real rig.

However, I saw something about supported motherboards and figured I would ask before I wasted my time.

Thanks!

Hi,

Generally almost all motherboards are supported, but I think you have two options:
1) You are writing here your HP linux server's motherboard model and asking if anybody running nvOC on it?
2) You are downloading nvOC image file, trying to build a boot USB flash drive and checking if it is working or no?
One more suggestion, please pay attention to the fact that you have only one card. There is a recommendation by fullzero:

Hi, guys.
Need help with NVOC (latest version):
I made Gigabyte H110-D3A rig with 4 Nvidia GPUs (MSI 1060/3, Asus P106-100, Asus P106-100 and Asus GTX 970).

My problem is that sometime a GPU got disconnected and I guess rig restarts uncleanly and I get
Journal error - Clean XXXXX/XXXXX .... and rig can't load into Ubuntu any more!

I had tried all I could (fsck -f, or -p, or -a) and none of it can't repair error!
I have to "reflash" my NVOC image on hard drive almost on daily base and error repeate again!

In logs can't see any error except GPU disconnect, no GPU number or anything and I don't have a clue what to do next!
Done BIOS updated to F23a, checked RAM, tried another HDD, no OCed GPUs, removed some GPUs... none worked.

Any ideas?

Hey,

how to change --farm-recheck parameter while using ethminer mining ETH on ethermine.org?

1. low down your overclocking
2. try to use SSD
3. replace SATA power cable (yes I had this problem)
4. check/replace risers

1. don't think the OC is the problem (+100 mhz on GPU and +0 on VRAM), but will try without any OC, again
2. don't have any ssd available right now, but did try with other hdd and got the same error  
3. did replaced sata data cable, but will do replace power cable tommorow
4. will do it, again(!)

But, why fsck can not repair journal error? Could it be because the Ubuntu is not installed from scratch but hdd was reimaged with NVOC?

BTW my rigs was doing just fine for first 7-8 days! But after that, I get the error every 24 hours or less.

Can't get nvOC 1Bash file config for my zenminer to work.  Im filling out these fields wrong somehow and the miner continuously reboots after several failed attemps (its been running perfect for weeks I'm just sick of Luckpool).  If this was my info, how would I properly fill out the fields below:

Workername created in Suprnova:  zenworker
Email used to create Suprnova account:  MattCryptoAcct@gmail.com
Username on Suprnova:  theDwiz
Password:  password1  (its not, but just for the example)

#ZEN
ZEN_WORKER=
ZEN_ADDRESS= "  "
ZEn_POOL="  "
ZEN_PORT="  "

Ive tried researching around, got attempted help on Discord, and searched some YouTube videos and I feel like I'm just missing something stupid. Would really appreciate the proper way to fill out the fields so I can connect to the pool.  Thanks in advance!

I was talking about SATA cable which is powering up you raisers or whatever is powering.

i run supernova, found this works password for you worker must be "z'" (unless you go into 3main and change it in there)
#ZEN

So last night my power to the house went out, they restored it this morning and now I have 6 rigs that will not login.
They boot to the M1 login screen and when I enter the miner1 psw it goes to a black screen for a few seconds then right back to the login.

Did every single one of my flash drives get corrupted or what?

If you been on 19-1.3 or older Nvidia driver updated today and has nothing to do with power outage.

Run

Code:

sudo dpkg --configure -a

Update problem is solved in 19-2.0

I thought I was running 1.4, I'll download 2.0


Edit.... I can only find the 1.4 download link

Look at here https://github.com/papampi/nvOC_by_fullzero_Community_Release

or papampi signature

Sooo how do I update it manually?

I downloaded from the google drive and copied the file into the main folder and every time I click the terminal it just wants to mine.

Your system is on v0019-2.0?
It may look weird but is IGD disabled in bios?
Disable virtualization in bios.

May help if you update ubuntu too if the above doesnt fix.

This is not correct :

Code:

ZEn_POOL="zen.suprnova.cc  "

Change it to:

Code:

ZEN_POOL="zen.suprnova.cc"

In nvOC-v0019-2.0 you dont need to edit 3main for miner password
in 1bash :

Code:

MINER_PWD="x"               # Set the miner password. Default: x

After copy image with HDDRAWCOPY to your SSD and start the rig update it to get latest changes and miners.

Code:

cd /home/m1/Downloads
wget -N https://www.dropbox.com/s/cyo86xoqotplges/nvOC-19-2-update
bash /home/m1/Downloads/nvOC-19-2-update

You can also update from 19-1.4 with same commands

    Running Claymore I used to be able to use the keyboard commands 0-9 and s for stats. Now they just print to the window I am in and no effect. Is this to be permanent? Sure was helpful.

In a gwake terminal tab f12,

For now use

Code:

screen -r miner

Will add an option in next release to make gnome-terminal interactive or just show miner logs, or revert it back to old system for local.


Open 3main, near the end of the file change
From:

Code:

      elif [ $LOCALorREMOTE == "LOCAL" ]
      then
        touch /home/m1/nvoc_logs/screenlog.0
        tail -f /home/m1/nvoc_logs/screenlog.0
      fi
    fi

  elif [ $AUTO_START_MINER == "NO" ]

To:

Code:

      elif [ $LOCALorREMOTE == "LOCAL" ]
      then
       screen -r miner
      fi
    fi

  elif [ $AUTO_START_MINER == "NO" ]

I started using this OS. Thanks to the creators, it's very convenient!

There are several questions:
1. What is the correct order of actions and commands after writing changes to 1bash? What should I enter to restart the miner?
2. How to search for the reasons that he does not see 8 cards from 1 card?
3. Now after an hour of work, the system swears on the dag file of the claymore miner, in Windows I treated it with an increase in the paging file. And what to do here?
4. When I try to log in through the monitor, not ssh, everything stops and hangs and goes into reboot
