[Linux] Autominer v0.3.2.6 - GPU Monitor, Downtime Swapper, New Interface

since X isn't running then i think you need to have it start xterm, which is `autoOpenXterm="1"` in common.lib.

I still have problems starting autominer. after i copied the .screen_Autominer, the starting window appears for a millisecond. the miner is working, but still no window. screen -list also shows no screen called "amm".

Any ideas?

I tried, but that is not the problem.
Any other suggestions?

Btw I also tried:

export DISPLAY=:0
sudo DISPLAY=:0 ./startmining.sh

But it didn't work too.

OK for anyone struggling to start the script at reboot this is the best way I've found:

In Gnome  go to System/Preferences/Startup Application or just find Startup Applications and add the script there.

Then when you connect via SSH just type:

screen -r to get the info screen.

Yes phoenix is patched. Directly launching it works fine (as in the command you provided).

running ./getrates.sh however, produces the following:

./getrates.sh: ./getRate.py: /usr/bin/python2: bad interpreter: No such file or directory
./getrates.sh: line 42: /1000: syntax error: operand expected (error token is "/1000")

For anyone having this problem just edit getRate.py

change

#!/usr/bin/python2

to

#!/usr/bin/python

This may not work on legacy systems which have python 1 and 2 installed, you would be better off going into /usr/bin, finding out the name of your python executable and creating a symlink to it.

For example, if it's called python26 (many are), do:

ln -s /usr/bin/python26 /usr/bin/python2

I'm getting the "There is no screen to be attached matching miner-1" message when starting the Autominer. I'm on ubuntu 11.07. Got x running and everything installed that I'm supposed to.

Is there any chance you could make the older version available? I had no problem running the one before the new interface.

Is it possible to run this on LinuxCoin?

I ran the config script, and have everything setup, but I get an error whe I run the startmining.sh script:

Code:

root@linuxcoin:/home/user/Downloads/Autominer# ./startmining.sh /home/user/Downloads//Autominer
Autominer Initialization...
Starting in /home/user/Downloads//Autominer
If this is the wrong directory, run "./startmining /path/to/Autominer" instead!
If the script fails, check the log file (default: /var/log/Autominer.log) for details of why.
Most likely, you haven't configured Autominer correctly.
If you can't work it out, don't give up, post at http://forum.bitcoin.org/index.php?topic=19861.0 and I'll try to help!
Directory '/var/run/screen' must have mode 777.
Directory '/var/run/screen' must have mode 777.
root@linuxcoin:/home/user/Downloads/Autominer#

There ISN'T a directory "/var/run/screen" there IS "/run/screen"

Do I have to install anything over the basic setup of LinuxCoin?

Why isn't this stickied yet?

Works very nicely except requires modding "miner.sh" file to avoid the even card failure toggle back bug which prevents switching pools when an even number of cards is attempting to switch.
Email me if you want the version of miner.sh to prevent this.


This needs upgrade for more than 2 pools and also timed switch back to main pool after failure, but those aren't necessary.
