RE: Ethereum AMD GPU Mining Tutorial Ubuntu 16.04 LTS

in #tutorial6 years ago

Thanks for the article. I'm a novice and just days into using Ubuntu 16.04. After the "./amdgpu-pro-install --px" command, Terminal reports "E: Unable to locate package xserver-xorg-video-modesetting-amdgpu-pro" . . . Is that normal? Should I go forward with the remainder of your instructions. BTW I used 17.50-511655 not the 17.30 version you referenced.

Hey hey! you might want to ask martico... He commented above... he is using the newest version of ubuntu and he got it to work!

As per DarDann in the very first post!

I had a problem with the new drivers and this command solved it with the 17.50 version "amdgpu-pro-install --opencl=legacy,rocm --headless"

This is a solid tip! thanks for posting! I might switch to 17.50 so it could come in handy later! give us an update on how ur miner is running when you have the time!

The rig is mining flawlessly! Under 17.50 and Claymore 10.
