I am having all sorts of trouble with a system I’m trying to run xmrig on. Basically I just need the support files in place for AMD (opencl) and Nvidia (CUDA) cards but I don’t use GPUs generally so I’m woefully underinformed.
For example, this link has a script to run:
linuxconfig . org/how-to-install-the-nvidia-drivers-on-manjaro-linux
but it fails. Do I need to follow those manual steps? That seems very gentoo-ish.
I did get openCL working but at literally 1% of the speed it should be, so I rebooted, and it stopped working again.
I’m on 21.2.5 if that helps, and I only have access via ssh.
On the discord channel I’m stuck in the #Welcome channel and I can see all the other people but I can’t see any other channels even after I waited the ten minutes…
Are you able to join your own Discord?
In many of mine, you must have roles to be able to see anything else. That sounds like it’s specific to Discord.
Can you share screenshots?
Wow, everyone is being really supportive on a low effort post. Yes, it’s for mining. Generally I use linux for a bunch of stuff that just doesn’t include gaming or 3d modelling, so a “proper” GPU has always been overkill for me, so I never picked up those skills along the way. I also generally use arch but am moving to manjaro so stuff like mhwd is new.
mhwd fell over because the kernel was 513 and it couldn’t get the downloads it wanted. A reboot has fixed the nvidia problem.
As for discord, I’m used to the idea where you get held in #welcome until you click a particular emote on a post, which lets you in, but here there’s no such thing.
discord . com/channels/695195472796581919/695195472796581922
TBH i think it’s just the wrong discord server perhaps.
So now after some messing about and a reboot, nvidia is perfect.
AMD has two problems:
Xmrig doesn’t detect the RX 5600 XT at all
Xmrig runs at 1% of expected speed on the RX580 and RX480 cards that it can see
So now I’ll push to mhwd for AMD and see how that goes and I’ll report back on any progress. Thanks for being so helpful!
