In this post I will show you how to gpu mine dash using the AMD RX 580 of your ubuntu linux computer and a software called Sgminer.
Access the SPRNOVA mining pool website and create an account.
You also need to create a worker account, in order to allow your computer to mine dash.
In our YOUTUBE channel, we offer a video showing you the step by step procedure.
Use the following commands to install the required packages to enable the AMD Radeon RX 580 or RX 480 Graphic card on your ubuntu linux computer.
# apt-get update
# apt-get install autotools-dev autoconf libtool pkg-config libcurl3 libcurl4-openssl-dev libncurses5-dev libudev-dev libusb-1.0-0-dev ocl-icd-opencl-dev unzip
# reboot
After rebooting, create the drivers folder, download the amdgpu-pro-17.30-465504.tar.xz file inside this folder and install the video card package - LINK
# mkdir /downloads/drivers –p
# cd mkdir /downloads/drivers
# tar -Jxvf amdgpu-pro-17.30-465504.tar.xz
# cd amdgpu-pro-17.30-465504/
# ./amdgpu-pro-install
# reboot
After rebooting, create the app-sdk folder, download the AMD-APP-SDKInstaller-v3.0.130.136-GA-linux64.tar.bz2 file inside this folder and install the package - LINK
# mkdir /downloads/app-sdk -p
# cd /downloads/app-sdk
# tar -jxvf AMD-APP-SDKInstaller-v3.0.130.136-GA-linux64.tar.bz2
# ./AMD-APP-SDK-v3.0.130.136-GA-linux64.sh
# reboot
After rebooting, create the adl-sdk folder, download the ADL_SDK_V10.2.zip file inside this folder and extract it from the zip file - LINK
# mkdir /downloads/adl-sdk -p
# cd /downloads/adl-sdk
# unzip ADL_SDK_V10.2.zip
Now, let's clone and install the Sgminer software.
# mkdir /downloads/miner -p
# cd /downloads/miner
# git clone https://github.com/genesismining/sgminer-gm
# cp /downloads/adl-sdk/include/* /downloads/miner/sgminer-gm/ADL_SDK/ -R
# cd /downloads/miner/sgminer-gm/
# git submodule init
# git submodule update
# autoreconf -i
# CFLAGS="-O2 -Wall -march=native -std=gnu99" ./configure
# make
# make install
In order to start gpu mining dash, use the following command:
# sgminer -T -I21 --algorithm x11 -o stratum+tcp://dash80.suprnova.cc:80 -u virtualcoin.dash -p 123
