Usage
Configurations
Before you started the miner the first time there are no config files available. Config files will be created at the first start. The number of files depends on the available backends. config.txt contains the common miner settings. pools.txt contains the selected mining pools and currency to mine. amd.txt, cpu.txt and nvidia.txt contains miner backend specific settings and can be used for further tuning.
Note: If the pool is ignoring the option rig_id in pools.txt to name your worker please check the pool documentation how a worker name can be set.

Usage on Windows
1. Double click the bittube-miner.exe file
2. Fill in the pool url settings, currency, username and password

disable the dialog
Code: [Select]
set XMRSTAK_NOWAIT=1
for non UAC execution.
Code: [Select]
Press any key to exit
CPU Only:
Code: [Select]
bittube-miner --noAMD --noNVIDIA
NVIDIA/AMD Only:
The miner will automatically detect if CUDA (for NVIDIA GPUs) or OpenCL (for AMD GPUs) is available.
Code: [Select]
bittube-miner --noCPU
NVIDIA via OpenCL
It is possible to use the OpenCl backend which is originally created for AMD GPUs with NVIDIA GPus. Some NVIDIA GPUs can reach better performance with this backend.
Code: [Select]
bittube-miner --openCLVendor NVIDIA --noNVIDIA
Docker image usage
You can run the Docker image the following way:
Code: [Select]
docker run --rm -it -u $(id -u):$(id -g) --name fireice-uk/bittube-miner -v "$PWD":/mnt bittube-miner
docker stop bittube-miner
docker run --rm -it -u $(id -u):$(id -g) --name fireice-uk/bittube-miner -v "$PWD":/mnt bittube-miner --config config.txt

Debug the docker image by getting inside:
Code: [Select]
docker run --entrypoint=/bin/bash --rm -it -u $(id -u):$(id -g) --name fireice-uk/bittube-miner -v "$PWD":/mnt bittube-miner
FAQ

Virus Protection Alert
Some virus protection software flags the miner binary as malware. This is a false positive — the software does not contain any malware (and since it is open source, you can verify that yourself!) If your antivirus software flags bittube-miner, it will likely move it to its quarantine area. You may have to whitelist bittube-miner in your antivirus.

Change Currency to Mine

If the miner is compiled for Monero and Aeon than you can change

the value currency in the config or
start the miner with the command line option --currency monero or --currency aeon7
run bittube-miner --help to see all supported currencies and algorithms

How can I mine Monero
Set the value currency in pools.txt to monero.

Which currency must be chosen if my fork coin is not listed
If your coin you want to mine is not listed please check the documentation of the coin and try to find out if cryptonight or cryptonight-lite is the used algorithm. Select one of these generic coin algorithms.
