  • Anyone worked out how to fix the error "Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)"?

  • What is you get an error (1) when installing the driver?

  • what kernel version do I need? I keep getting failed dkms on 5.13.0-30

  • Is there a monitor page, with your setup or do we only get to see what's in the terminal and have to figure it out?

  • i am finding that the drivers from AMD no longer install with the current version of ubuntu 20.04 they fail building they fail building amdgpu-dkms. I have not found a way around this yet, but I have an ASUS Dual rt6700xt. I am still looking for a solution.

  • Thank you bro I have been looking for a Linux tutorial all day best one I’m definitely a new subscriber thanks again bro!!👍💯

  • Installed with this instructions and got errors, uninstalled and installed as the guide says with the installer package and got rid of the errors but the result is similar, driver installed and mining for 10 hours now but xserver broke no gui at all I got miner running from terminal, I can live with that but it would be nice to know what is causing the problem (I did not use –headless)

    Any ideas?

  • Hi , i have installed linux on my ps4 pro , can i mine some crypto with that ?

  • I think you should go even faster … We still arrive by pausing to see what to do! A little faster, and this video would be reserved for those who already know how to do it! ! !

  • Nice that you used a cheatsheet you know that youtube shortens links in the video description

  • Hi!
    I followed all steps as described but
    Phoenixminer doesnt set gpu and memclock… it seems like it didnt even recognize when i set it in .sh file?? i already reinstalled LinuxMint and reinstalled drivers as shown what did i wrong??
    Thank you!

  • thanks for the video. I made a mistake when I install the driver, instead of haveing "–opencl" I only had "-opencl". Then which I check clinfo, it shows Number of Platform is 0. Should I just reinstall Ubuntu and start again? thanks

  • Did you try to mine also with more GPU's ?

  • Can I use Ubuntu Server without a GUI?
