Ethereum AMD GPU Mining Tutorial Ubuntu 16.04 LTS

in tutorial •  7 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.

      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"

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