Mining Dash using a RX 580 / 480 GPU - For Linux

in #dash7 years ago

In this post I will show you how to gpu mine dash using the AMD RX 580 of your ubuntu linux computer and a software called Sgminer.

Requirements

  • We are using Ubuntu server version 17. (Did not work on any other version)
  • You need to download the DRIVER and place it inside the /downloads/drivers
  • You need to download the APP-SDK and place it inside the /downloads/app-sdk
  • You need to download the ADL-SDK and place it inside the /downloads/drivers

SUPRNOVA

Access the SPRNOVA mining pool website and create an account.
You also need to create a worker account, in order to allow your computer to mine dash.

STEP BY STEP

In our YOUTUBE channel, we offer a video showing you the step by step procedure.

AMD RX 580 INSTALLATION

Use the following commands to install the required packages to enable the AMD Radeon RX 580 or RX 480 Graphic card on your ubuntu linux computer.

# apt-get update
# apt-get install autotools-dev autoconf libtool pkg-config libcurl3 libcurl4-openssl-dev libncurses5-dev libudev-dev libusb-1.0-0-dev ocl-icd-opencl-dev unzip
# reboot

After rebooting, create the drivers folder, download the amdgpu-pro-17.30-465504.tar.xz file inside this folder and install the video card package - LINK

# mkdir /downloads/drivers –p
# cd mkdir /downloads/drivers
# tar -Jxvf amdgpu-pro-17.30-465504.tar.xz
# cd amdgpu-pro-17.30-465504/
# ./amdgpu-pro-install
# reboot 

AMD APP SDK INSTALLATION

After rebooting, create the app-sdk folder, download the AMD-APP-SDKInstaller-v3.0.130.136-GA-linux64.tar.bz2 file inside this folder and install the package - LINK

# mkdir /downloads/app-sdk -p
# cd /downloads/app-sdk 
# tar -jxvf AMD-APP-SDKInstaller-v3.0.130.136-GA-linux64.tar.bz2
# ./AMD-APP-SDK-v3.0.130.136-GA-linux64.sh
# reboot

ADL-SDK

After rebooting, create the adl-sdk folder, download the ADL_SDK_V10.2.zip file inside this folder and extract it from the zip file - LINK

# mkdir /downloads/adl-sdk -p
# cd /downloads/adl-sdk 
# unzip ADL_SDK_V10.2.zip 

SGMINER INSTALLATION

Now, let's clone and install the Sgminer software.

# mkdir /downloads/miner -p
# cd /downloads/miner
# git clone https://github.com/genesismining/sgminer-gm
# cp /downloads/adl-sdk/include/* /downloads/miner/sgminer-gm/ADL_SDK/ -R
# cd /downloads/miner/sgminer-gm/
# git submodule init
# git submodule update
# autoreconf -i
# CFLAGS="-O2 -Wall -march=native -std=gnu99" ./configure 
# make
# make install

MINING DASH

In order to start gpu mining dash, use the following command:

# sgminer -T -I21  --algorithm  x11 -o stratum+tcp://dash80.suprnova.cc:80 -u virtualcoin.dash -p 123
  • You need to change the username virtualcoin.dash and password from the command above to the worker username that you created on the suprnova dash mining pool website.
