nvidia: module license 'NVIDIA' taints kernel. STEP 7) Check to see if your driver is loaded properly It happens frequently an older driver (but not much old) to be slightly better in performance than the latest driver, so you can experiment with other older drivers if you like. STEP 6) now reboot the machine to load the NVIDIA proprietary driver.Īt the time of this howto we the NVIDIA driver is 390.30 (nvidia-390 (390.30-0ubuntu1)), but you can list older ones and install them to see if they are better than the last. You probably will see how you packet manager downloads around 852 packets (arround 1.5G) and installs them all, at last you must see no errors and probably there will be double “done” Sudo apt-get -y install git cmake libleveldb-dev libjsoncpp-dev libboost-all-dev libgmp-dev libreadline-dev libcurl4-gnutls-dev ocl-icd-libopencl1 opencl-headers mesa-common-dev libmicrohttpd-dev build-essential cuda libcrypto++-dev libjsonrpccpp-dev Install the dependencies for the ethminer, NVIDIA video driver and NVIDIA CUDA platform STEP 5) Install the dependencies for the ethminer, NVIDIA video driver and NVIDIA CUDA platform5). STEP 4) Update all repositories to download the latest package lists Sudo add-apt-repository -y ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa STEP 3) Install repository for your proprietary drivers of NVIDIA video cards Just execute the command it says and then again, so in our case:ĭpkg -i /root/cuda-repo-ubuntu1604_8.0.61-1_b

The public CUDA GPG key does not appear to be installed.

STEP 2) Install the NVIDIA CUDA repository in you UBUNTU with

So now we download the file with wget just execute You could try them to see if you have a better performance for your video card with some of the older CUDA platform. Just follow the simple steps and you’ll have an optimized GPU for Ethash crypto currencies: STEP 1) Download latest CUDA from NVDIA site. This is simple “how to” to get started mining crypto currency with explanations using Ethash algorithm like Ethererum.
