• Gupax - Enabling 1GB Pages ain't working
  1 project | /r/MoneroMining | 24 Jul 2023

  I'm not so new to XMRig, but I am new to Gupax.io and I'm lost on how I can get 1GB Pages from Disabled to Enabled in the XMRig portion of Gupax. Yes, my CPU supports it. Yes, I made sure my Linux OS uses HugePages. Yes, my RAM and OS CLI checks reflect their usage. Yes, I've also used this script . It all works, except in Gupax.

• Just experienced an attempted hack. A warning to anyone using WebUI.

• Best mining program on Windows?

  Xmrig and use a pool that isn't one of the top three. If you want a have more of a challenge then try the p2pool with xmrig. https://github.com/xmrig/xmrig/releases/tag/v6.19.3

• Over 110k BAN has been distributed to BanRXers!
  2 projects | /r/banano | 22 Jun 2023

  Regarding how much you can trust BanRX, all of the mining software used is fully open source on GitHub, with a commonly used one (XMrig) having over 7.6k stars on the repository. We also have a community Discord server for all of the apps in the BananoPlanet ecosystem, including our faucet! You can join the BananoPlanet Discord server at https://bananoplanet.cc/discord.

• Awesome miner tech support

  I would recommend running XMRig directly so as to weed out any problems related to AwesomeMiner.

• Question about withdrawing from nicehash
  1 project | /r/gpumining | 3 Jun 2023

  I’m guessing you are also CPU mining? That is likely an issue with XMRig, correct? If so, first be sure you launch NiceHash as Admin. Right-click the shortcut -> Properties -> Shortcut tab -> Advanced -> Run as administrator. Relaunch NiceHash from the update shortcut, and approve the User Account Control prompt. If that doesn’t solve it, leave the setting intact, but try a couple of other options: 1. toggle “Disable Device Status Monitoring” from NiceHash settings cog icon -> Advanced tab, which is an easy fix that prevents temperature monitoring. 2. the better solution, is to overwrite your XMRig.exe in the XMRig plug-in internals directory [NiceHash Plugins tab -> XMRig -> three dots -> Show Internals -> bins directory -> latest (i.e., 19.1) -> XMRig directory (i.e., xmrig-6.8.1) -> XMRig.exe] with the latest version (v6.19.3) of XMRig.exe available from https://github.com/xmrig/xmrig/releases . For me, swapping the .exe file and running as Admin resolves the issue.

  Monero is mined with CPU, and the best software for this is XMRig. You will need to join a mining pool to mine Monero.
