I am having trouble getting PIMP up and running. I flash my USB drive, start up the computer and it loads and then asks me for the root password.  I enter "live" and then i am at a command prompt. I type "pimp" and this screen pops up.  "mine start" and "edit" are not recognized commands. (they dont do anything) where do i go from here? |

Type "ifconfig" to get the rig's ipaddress, it's probably giving you the ip when you log in as well. use this number from the webbrowser on another computer on your home-network and do all the config from there. There's also a very nice "getting started" here: http://getpimp.org/info/getting-started.html |

Thanks, i didn't realize this OS was meant to be for headless miners. Its making more sense now.
I am using regular GPUs, can i just copy/paste my cgminer.conf file over from BAMT and have it work correctly?

Yes, I think you can do that, more or less. I use the same parameters as I used in Windows and it works. Only better! |

It's in the update-script already, but there's a few manual steps to make it work |

I have a rig that I have tried pretty much all of the BaMT distros on, including PiMP.
It has a 5870 and a 6950 in it.
In windows with SG miner I can get a stable 420kh on the 5870 and 480kh on the 6950.
I've literally spent days with all of the different distros adjusting core/mem speeds, etc.
No matter what the best I've been able to get is 330kh on the 5870 and 420kh on the 6950 and they fluctuate all over the place +/- 30kh in either direction.
Has anyone been able to achieve the same speeds on one of the distros as they have in windows stably with no fluctuation?

I guess quite a few people would be happy to donate for such help The current pimpupdate script will break the web interface, so what I did was from terminal to shut down the mining process and manually copy /opt/ifmi/cgminer.x11.conf to /opt/ifmi/cgminer.x11mod.conf and edit it to the "x11mod" kernel Then I just start with cd /opt/sph-sgminer_x11mod
./sgminer -c /opt/ifmi/cgminer.x11mod.confThat will also make the web-interface come to life again so you can see temperatures and so on It's a temporary fix, but it will give you at least 50% extra while you are waiting for the proper release |

Can anyone direct me to show how to disable the autologin screen? I do not want anyone to connect a monitor to my rig and do something.

I have PIMP 1.4.2-amd-13.12. Is pimpupdate safe to use? Do I have to stop minining before doing update or I just type pimpupdate in terminal and accept?
I would like to update, so my rig support X13 algo.

no, it's not safe. I tried to update to get X13 to prepare for OPEC coin, but now can't get to the web interface again and I'm doing everything by command line there now |

Not having much luck with PIMP 1.4.2 on an Asrock H81 Pro BTC motherboard with 6 Sapphire 270's using powered PCI-E USB risers. After boot up xorg shoots the CPU up to 100% for about 3 minutes. Then I get the following fault. I can RDP into the desktop. Message from syslogd@pimp at Jun 2 22:10:03 ...
kernel:[ 206.588902] general protection fault: 0000 [#1] SMP

A kill -9 will not even kill them. I have to reboot the machine. This machine worked fine using the SMOS distro. Any ideas? |
