Hi PeaMine, sorry for not answering for a while.
I'm on Ubuntu 14.04 64bit
https://minergate.com/articles/cpuminerwhen compiled, works, but doesn't actually do any hashing but will report locally that it is.
CPU load stays near 0, even if I spawn 8 instances of it, and then each hash per instance properly drops.
Okay, this is Wolf's miner. I've just checked it on my Ubuntu 14.04 x64:
git clone https://github.com/LucasJones/cpuminer-multi.git lucasjones
cd lucasjones/
./autogen.sh
./configure
make
./minerd -a cryptonight -o bcn.pool.minergate.com:5555 -u <my_email> -t 1
Works well, shares are being sent and accepted.
Please, make sure it doesn't say smth like "0 miner threads started". If it does, try using "-t" option to specify number of threads.
In short though, the above cpuminer doesn't work with Minergate for me[Pool reports no shares but miner online], yet works with other pools without any issue.
In all LucasJones-based miners (pretty much all of them) there are different branches of code working with http pools (like MinerGate) and tcp+stratum (like others), they behave slightly differently and have its own issues.
Sadly for us, all the problems in the http-branch are associated with MinerGate's issues rather than the miners itself, because we're (almost) only http-pool, nobody cares.
We're working on tcp+stratum support to avoid this.
I've just tried it this way and it works on Ubuntu 14.04 x64:
git clone https://gitlab.com/amjuarez/bytecoin.git
cd bytecoin
nano src/common/ObserverManager.h (add "#include <algorithm>" right after "#include <vector>" to avoid compilation error)
make -j 2
build/release/src/simpleminer --pool-addr bcn.pool.minergate.com:5555 --login <LOGIN_EMAIL> --pass !
https://minergate.com/download/deb-cliWhen installing this via dpkg, I get dependency issues I haven't seen before and have not been able to resolve them.
It's the first miner I've ran into that I simply can't get working.
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of minergate-cli:
minergate-cli depends on libqt5core5 | libqt5core5a; however:
Package libqt5core5 is not installed.
Package libqt5core5a is not installed.
minergate-cli depends on libqt5network5; however:
Package libqt5network5 is not installed.
I tried the older versions:
https://minergate.com/download/cpuminer/ubuntu_13.10For example, but what do I do with this file?
It's not a deb it seems, not a compressed archive.
Ok, let's try as I do on my clean Ubuntu 14.04 x64:
wget https://minergate.com/download/deb-cli
sudo dpkg -i deb-cli
minergate-cli <whatever you want>
Please, make sure you're using Ubuntu 14.04 x64.
Can you also try it this way on clean Ubuntu 14.04?
