I see what’s going on. It appears to be experiencing problems with the running ethereum ubuntu with the latest cgminer version (3.3) and Using P2Pool, which is several mining pools.
After a few research, I found that there are many reasons why the Erharos Cannot Be Stable or Work As expected on the Ubuntu Machine:
- They must support the pcie x4 surface and the minimum 5 v Voltage. Unfortunately, some older gpus, including the latest cgminer version (3.3), are unlikely to meet these requirements.
- CGMINER USB MODE Configuration : While CGMiner Supports Multiple Mining Modes, Including USB Mode, It Requires Further Configuration to Work Properly on the Older GPU, Such as Erupers. The
-usboption is required, but some older versions of cgminer are unlikely to support this feature by default.
To solve these problems, you can try the following steps:
Ubuntu for 12.04 lts x64:
- Install the Required Packages:
`Bash
Sudo Apt-Get Install Libusb-1.0-Dev Devl Dev Librt-Dev Libcurl4-Opensl Dev LIBLOCKDEV-MMX2-Dev
`
- Update the System:
`Bash
Sudo apt-get update
`
۳
`Bash
Sudo Apt-Get Install USB-1.0-Dev
`
- Update cgminer to a version that supports USB Mode:
`Bash
Sudo APT-Get install cgminer = 3.2.10.5
`
Ubuntu for 14.04 lts x64:
- Install the Required Packages:
`Bash
Sudo Apt-Get Install Libusb-1.0-Dev Devl Dev Librt-Dev Libcurl4-Opensl Dev LIBLOCKDEV-MMX2-Dev
`
- Update the System:
`Bash
Sudo apt-get update
`
۳
`Bash
Sudo Apt-Get Install USB-1.0-Dev
`
- Update cgminer to a version that supports USB Mode:
`Bash
Sudo APT-Get install cgminer = 3.2.10.5
`
Using P2Pool:
P2Pool is another ethereum mining pool software that can use more mining (in this case erupers). HERE ARE A FEW STEPS YOU CAN DO:
- Install P2Pool:
`Bash
Sudo Apt-Get Install P2Pool-Uubuntu
`
- Update the System:
`Bash
Sudo apt-get update
`
۳
`Bash
P2pool -miners = 1: cgminer = 3.2.10.5 -net = ETH
`
Note that you must replace “1” with the Erupter Mining Index and “3.2.10.5” with the installed CGMINER VERSION.
More troubleshooting steps:
- Check the System’s USB portals to make sure erupers support them.
- Make sure the cgminer drivers are up to date as an older driver can cause problems in usb mode.
- Consider using another ethereum mining software, such as cgminer or ethminer, which may be compatible with your system.
I hope this will help you solve the problems you have experienced!
