SMOS Linux Plug-In & Mine - The simplest mining OS based on Linux

[phaddie]

I currently have 2 saphaire r9 290 running on a smos rig.  Will there be issues if I add a r9 290 from a different manufacturer?  Will I have to do something to get it to work?

  Cheers

No, just turn off rig, and start it. Maybe you will need to put differents clocks, thats is only change.
Like:

"1500,1450"

See example on web tips.

  So being different brands does not matter?  That is awesome, thankyou!

You can use 6 different brands, and configure seperate clocks for it.

if anyone is interested in a copy of SMOS with the forced donations disabled I have posted it here: https://litecointalk.org/index.php?topic=10253.0

Has anyone tried the sgminer or kalroth minier upgrade on the latest version?  I could not get it to work on the last one.

Is there an alternate download available for this? Your server is only downloading at 40KBPS which is pathetic.

Can I download and install SG miner so that everything runs automated with a script on startup? I can't use CG miner as I'm mixing 2 7950s with 2 R9 280x. Btw how do you undervolt?

Why SMOS Linux 1.0 achieves better hashrates than newer versions with a R9280x rig? How could I downgrade any driver or client that may cause this?

Definitely a little shady about the "fee" in the SMOS distro. I turned it off. If the author was more forth coming about it I would have left it on.

Its all writed on the web, i dont know what are you didnt understand.

Getting an invalid partition table error on boot using SMOS-Linux1.3-2GB

Re-extracted the archive and re-wrote it to the USB 3 times using Win32 Disk Manager to rule out a faulty write.

Any ideas?

The forced fee is masked under a "donation" link on the website. The forced fee is not mentioned anywhere in the first post of this thread or in the official SMOS thread on the litcoin board. Somewhat shady. Makes one wonder what other things might be hidden in the distro...

[phaddie]

If it makes a difference I have been using this distro for a while and have had multiple questions answered by the dev quickly and efficiently. I have been super happy with SMOS, as well as the support both on the website, in this forum, and through email.

 I was at first distressed by the auto donate portion as well.  I do feel that it could be made more public (on the front page) and have the instructions to remove it made readily available.  This might actually leave people feeling inclined to leave it intact for a few days.

As far as I can tell there is no other funny stuff going on.  This has done everything I need it to do and does it very well.

  My 2 cents

Hi,
i got 1.0 version and it work fine.
But when i removed my screen from my rig, i can't see any data.
My worker are good on my pool but on the computer i juste see 0MHs and nothing on my browser. Is it normal?

I took 1.0 not 1.2/1.3 because u say it's best version for 7950 but i may be will try 1.3.

Did you use gparted?  First erase what is on the partition space you wan to use, than new format to ext4. If you erased the windows partition by chance you might have problems too. Also you might try using UNetbootin for creating a bookable USB for linux.

[santapedofil]

You cant use UNetbootin for img file like SMOS.
