Hi,

I am trying to use Gminer on Ubuntu 20.04 but I simply get the error 'no device detected', and nothing else.

I have the latest Nvidea driver active.

Can't seem to find any info on this.

Any advice?

Hi,

Can you show your command line arguments?
Also can you provide output from nvidia-smi command?

Best Regards

Thank you for getting back to my so quickly.

I have simply filled in the mine_beam.sh file that was already present in the Gminer map with my details:

#!/bin/sh
./miner --algo beamhash --server beam-eu.leafpool.com:3333 --ssl 1 --user [my permanent beam address].pavilion


nividia-smi seems to identify the problem:

knepala@knepala-HP-Pavilion-Gaming-Laptop-15-dk1xxx:~/Crypto/Gminer$ ./mine_beam.sh
No device found
knepala@knepala-HP-Pavilion-Gaming-Laptop-15-dk1xxx:~/Crypto/Gminer$ nvidia-smi
NVIDIA-SMI has failed because it couldn't communicate with the NVIDIA driver. Make sure that the latest NVIDIA driver is installed and running.

As far as I can tell from settings, I am running the latest Nvidia driver. This is just a two day old laptop.

Nvidia drivers not installed (properly) it appears.

I dont use the gui automated system for this....i just go to the nvidia web page and dl the driver... then install that (manually not through installer of ubuntu) then nvidia-smi works.  Then the miner will work.

HI,

I have used

apt search nvidia-driver

sudo apt install nvidia-driver-455

And am still getting the same error.

Should this not have worked?

[miner29]

I went to Nvidia and got the driver there...

https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/drivers/results/166883/

gets the linux-64 30 series 3080

Then i execute the download to install


Im sure there are other ways...but i never had any luck with the Ubuntu Software/Upate system for the drivers


Once you get them properly installed:
nvidia-smi should show something like this (well format wont look so bad):

Great job with GMiner!  I found your miner on a list of Etchash supported miners, great job supporting the new Ethash variant.

I was wondering if you had any interest in adding support for Ubqhash?

Here's some of the technicals to help explain the algo changes more in depth:  https://blog.ubiqsmart.com/introducing-ubqhash-8fa515befd7

Ubiq has quite a large community of miners, but the current number of mining programs is somewhat limited.  I'm reaching out on behalf of the Ubiq community to see if you're interested in potentially adding Ubqhash support, thanks!

I tested gminer with amd R9 390 8Gb hawaii cards under smos. It starts hashing and even finds 1 share, but after that just keeps hashing without any accepted share as shown both in the miner and the pool. Neither of the cards on any of my rigs hangs. They keep hashing but with no accepted share except the 1st one. There is also some linux error message for not finding a file to read in a directory, may be this is the cause. Any fix for this?

Edit. Today I tested it on hiveos and it is working really well with <2% stale shares.

REQUEST:

Include Fidelity / Effective Hash rate of miner in API.

I am mining TUBE with version 2.35 at mining.bittube.app but I am not able to set a worker name. it is still x even if I type whichever password. Is this a bug in gminer or am I doing something wrong? 
I have nvidia 1070ti cards.

Thanks

Dear GMiner developer,

I hope everything goes well on your side. Recently, I have tried to migrate to one of the mining software recommended by 2miners website (i.e., gminer and t-rex). However, I have faced difficulties in making them start to mine through a cable based or wireless based network. I am not sure what strategies or algorithms are behind the software for communicating with the mining pools, but the issue is still there on my side.
For your information, I have been successful in using an LTE USB dongle in using the t-rex 0.19.4 by the time being, but not tried it yet in gminer. The Claymore has also the same issue and is working using an LTE USB dongle, as a couple of days ago it faced the errors of time out or no connection through ADSL router cable or the shared Internet of working LTE USB dongle shared through a switch.
In other words, recently all of the the softwares in my side have faced an strange issue.
Additionally, the Internet network can easily ping the eth.2miners.com without any problems on all rigs using cable, wireless or LTE USB dongle.
As I am not aware of the inside of the mining program, so I can not find out why the no connection or time out messages can be issued even if the ping replies are OK.

FYI: For one time, I tried other pool namely ethereum.org and there were no issues in that pool. I have also contacted the 2miners.com admin and they confirmed that there are no issues on their side.

I would appreciated it if you may kindly comment on this issue.

Thanks for your attention in this regards.
