This is the LEGACY Cuda Miner - see Current Linux Miner (AMD/NVIDIA)
Legacy Windows Miner is now available Windows Legacy NVidia GPU Miner
You need NVidia drivers installed. Linux Miner Download Link
1. Download
the install archive
2. Extract
on your rig
3. Edit

4. Run
./EggMinerGpu.exe
Detailled instructions
To be completed0. Requirements
Linux, NVidia GPU.
Install NVidia Cuda:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa sudo apt update sudo apt upgrade sudo apt install htop screen nvidia-cuda-toolkitThen reboot.
You can then check that Drivers are ok via ndivia-smi command.
1. Download and 2. Extract
wget https://eggpool.net/dl/EggMinerGpu.tgz tar -zxvf EggMinerGpu.tgz
3. Edit
cd EggMinerGpu cp miner.default.txt miner.txt nano miner.txtEdit the miner_address= line and paste your address.
do NOT add any space, the line has to read like miner_address=c270e5b5d1cdb9597d2440bb2d39fa8114da95db9fad1336bcdeb696
Just take care, no space around the '=' sign.
Note:The archive does not come with a miner.txt, so it wont delete your settings. But on first setup, you have to create that file, unless you want to mine for the defautl address (us).
4. Run
./EggMinerGpu.exeThat's all, you are now mining Bismuth full speed with your GPUs
More
You can run the miner in a screen command, so you can monitor from another machine.You can launch it at startup.
Your cards should be auto-tuned with the best params.
If you've got some old or specific GPU, let us now so we can tune and adjust.
Some candy
The miner uses by default a sha of your hostname as worker name, to give a unique worker name, but not leaking any info.You can add the -c flag to the miner (stands for clear), like ./EggMinerGpu.exe -c, to use the real hostname instead.
You then have a unique worker name that can be your rig's name, no edit involved.
If you want more control, use -n switch instead, like this : ./EggMinerGpu.exe -n MyUniqueWorkerName (of course, don't use "MyUniqueWorkerName", but a real unique name.
The same is achived with an optional line miner_name=MyUniqueWorkerName in miner.txt.
Just take care, no space around the '=' sign.
What should I expect?
We're working on it, but you can check your card perfs with our Rentability Calculator.Current Linux version
