Hello, i have amd rx6800 gpu and i just want to test it to mine something. The card was second hand so i want to know if it works in mining too.
I have registered on nicehash and found that no any Linux software available except dedicated nicehash distro.
As far as i know cgminer 4.9.2 which available via apt no more works for GPU.

Is the $100k BTC possible?

Yes, you can mine with that GPU check the list of coins you can mine with this GPU below.

https://whattomine.com/gpus/51-amd-radeon-rx-6800?cost=0.1&cost_currency=USD&sort=revenue24_desc

If you choose the first one RYO coin then you can follow this guide below
- https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2126975.0

You XMR stak to mine RYO you can follow the Linux guide on how to compile this check the link below.

- https://github.com/fireice-uk/xmr-stak/blob/master/doc/compile/compile_Linux.md

How many rigs do you have? If this is only one GPU in one rig you can make a bootable hiveOS because most of the mining software is already there and it's free for 1 rig.

I know that i may mine on that GPU, i wanted to ask about which software could be used on ubuntu 22.04 nowadays to test mining.
Also i know about dedicated mining OS-es based on Linux, but i want to try it on above system.

Have you considered what JayDDee said?

There are so many mining software programs in the first few pages of this board. All you need to do is just a few clicks here and there, and you could get what you want. Linux OS can't be that unpopular?  Grin

Use Nobara Linux

install steam "so many gpu support one click installed"
install rocm "computing support for mining"
install corectrl "Gpu management in linux"

install any Gpu miner linux edition

With Nobara 39, the naming of "rocm" packages has changed.
The package that needs to be installed is "rocm-opencl-runtime"

Hello, i have amd rx6800 gpu and i just want to test it to mine something. The card was second hand so i want to know if it works in mining too.
I have registered on nicehash and found that no any Linux software available except dedicated nicehash distro.
As far as i know cgminer 4.9.2 which available via apt no more works for GPU.

If you dont want to use ready-made software like Hive-os etc, but would like to just install the graphics driver and run any mining program from the command line, then you can follow this recipe.  It works for my RX6600 cards.

Goto the AMD web site and download the latest driver .deb file  from

https://www.amd.com/en/support

If you enter your GPU model, RX6800, then the latest version to download is  amdgpu-install_5.7.50702-1_all.deb

After this file is downloaded, open a terminal window, cd to the ~/Downloads folder and run the following commands to install driver:

sudo apt-get install ./amdgpu-install_5.7.50702-1_all.deb
sudo amdgpu-install -y --accept-eula --opencl=rocr,legacy --usecase=graphics,opencl

Then edit /etc/default/grub and add these kernel parameters to it:
Change the line where it says GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT to
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash text noapic amdgpu.gpu_recovery=1 amdgpu.ppfeaturemask=0xffffffff"
and save, then run

sudo update-grub

Then register your user id in the video group:

sudo usermod -a -G render $LOGNAME
sudo usermod -a -G video $LOGNAME

After this you may need to reboot for your system for it to register your card.

Then after that you can start looking at mining software like lolminer, SRB-Miner, Teamredminer...

Fellow miners, get your thens and thans in order and help other forum readers understand what you are writing. Remember the grammar basics:  B larger THAN A (comparator operator). If something THEN ....

Are you going to make people who don't know anything about Linux do this?
Wow, it's a great idea.

Most users couldn't even understand what I wrote.

After installing the 6.7.xx kernels, "Corectrl" does not work on Linux.
It is more efficient to remove "Corectrl" and install the "LACT" beta version instead.

How profitable mining those POW coins nowadays? I could not even recover my energy bill and air-conditioning cost last month.

After nobara kernel up to 6.7.7-xxxxxxx  kernels
You can use corectrl again.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
All Fedora based distro mining config like this

sudo dnf update

sudo dnf install xorg-x11-drv-amdgpu vulkan-tools mesa-vulkan-drivers vulkan-loader vulkan-loader.i686 glew-devel SDL2-devel SDL2_image-devel glm-devel freetype-devel openssl-devel openssl-libs python3 curl glibc-devel libstdc++-devel libxcb-devel libX11-devel libxshmfence-devel libXrandr-devel wayland-devel make gcc-c++ rocm-opencl rocminfo rocm-clinfo rocm-device-libs

sudo grubby --update-kernel=ALL --args="radeon.cik_support=0 amdgpu.cik_support=1"

reboot

sudo dnf install corectrl
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Edit the file /etc/default/grub as root and append amdgpu.ppfeaturemask=0xffffffff to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT:

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="...amdgpu.ppfeaturemask=0xffffffff"

NOTE: In the above example, ... represent other existing parameters. Do not add ... to your GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT. You should only add amdgpu.ppfeaturemask=0xffffffff.
Then regenerate the bootloader configuration file with the command:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

sudo grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg

If you get an error message, change to

sudo grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg

Reboot your system.

Sorry for late reply, i tried few dedicated miners for Linux which ever worked for GPU and some already not working or having compatibility issues. For example gminer unable to detect installed amd driver.


Code:
root@xeon:/home/dem/Gminer# ./miner -a ethash -s stratum+tcp://daggerhashimoto.usa.nicehash.com:3353 -u myuser -p x

And the most suitable working miner for sake of testing was lolMiner. No problem to detect drivers.
