Ethereum: cgminer doesnt use my GPU
** Ethereum -Cgminer, facilitated
As cryptocurrency enthusiasts, they are probably not alien to the mining world. With the increase in the ethreum and other old coins, mining has become an important part of each blockchain ecosystem. However, beginners may be intimidated by the determination and configuration of the mine. In this article, we will examine how the CGMINER is determined by the Centos6 x64 with the support of Opencl.
What is cgminer?
CGMINER is a popular open source Miner software that can be detrimental to cryptocurrencies such as Ethereum with their computer (CPU or GPU). Contrary to the full mining platform, which requires a lot of hardware and specialists, Cgminer is for lovers and beginners. It offers the user and a friendly interface for the configuration of mining parameters, to monitor the problems of progress and mistakes.
Why use Opencl?
Opencl (Compute Library) is API with which software can directly access computer hardware resources. In this case, we will use OpenCl to use GPU skills. With Opencl, CGMINER can use parallel GPU processing performance to speed up mining processes.
CGMINER set Centos6 x64
To set up a CGMINER you have:
- Download and install Opencll : Download the latest version of Opencl of the official website: <
2.
`Bash
SUDO YUM Install EPEL EVERYTHING
SUDO YUM to install GCC-C ++ libopencl1
SUDO SUDO CP /USR/LIB/EPEL-RELEASE/RPMS/*.EPEL-7/x86_64/openscissors-3.2.x86_64.rpm/USR/LIB/OPENCL1
Change /USR/Lib/EPEEL LESE/RPMS/*. EPEL-7/x86_64/Openscissors-3.0-2.x86_64.RPM
via the true Opencll driver RPM file for your Centos 6 x64 system.
- Be established.
Configure CGMINER with OpenCl Support
To activate the OpenCl support for CGMINER, you must configure the following:
1
`Bash
Configuration of Opencl Drivers
Enter the OpenCl Driver File
cp /usr/lib/epel-release/rpms/*.Epel-7/x86_64/openscissors-3.0-2.x86_64.rpm/etc/cgmer/configs/
Activate the support of Opencl
"Opencl.enabled = True"
Set the Opencl Driver File Way
Opencl.driver.path = "/usr/lib/Epel-release/rpms/*.Epel-7/x86_64/openscissors-3.2.x86_64.rpm"
2.
`Bash
Sudo SystemCtl Restart Cgminer
Troubleshooting and tracking
You can use tools such as MPSTAT or HTOP to solve your miner problems. These teams will help you monitor the use of CPU and GPU system system.
MPSTAT -C
: Shows all facilities throughout the statistics.
- HTOP: Command line interface with HTOP, which offers a more detailed review of the use of your system resources.
If you do these steps, you should set and configure the CGGERERS Centos6 x64 with the support of Opencl. With this setup, you can reduce Ethereum using your GPU using a large hardware or competence. Happy mining!
