Leave a Comment / Mining / By

 

Linux – Native Installation

1.1 Prepare Your System

sudo apt -y install nvidia-driver-535
sudo reboot

Verify setup:

nvidia-smi
ldconfig -p | grep libcudart

If missing: install nvidia-utils-535 or similar for your distro.

1.2 Download & Verify Miner

mkdir -p ~/pepepow && cd ~/pepepow
wget https://pepepow.foztor.net/beta/pepepow-miner
echo "ca1196319dfd9495c4bd46687d5e22aafbaaf2156a72d8e0055882c2b4393bca pepepow-miner" | sha256sum -c -
chmod +x pepepow-miner

1.3 Run the Miner

CPU-only:

./pepepow-miner -o stratum+tcp://POOL:PORT --no-longpoll -u WALLET.CPUTEST

Hybrid (GPU + CPU):

./pepepow-miner -o stratum+tcp://POOL:PORT --no-longpoll -u WALLET.GPUTEST --blake3gpu --gpu-id 0

Useful Flags:

Flag Description
-t N Set number of CPU threads
--list-gpus List available GPUs
--gpu-id X Choose specific NVIDIA GPU
--batch-size Experiment with 128–4096 (default = auto)
--no-longpoll Recommended for some pools

Note: GPU telemetry is not built-in – use nvidia-smi to monitor temps.
Start with conservative clocks (e.g., mem = 810 MHz).

Hive OS  – Create Custom Miner

  1. Go to Hive Dashboard > Flight Sheets > Custom Miner > Add Miner
  2. Fill in fields:
Field Value
Name pepepow-hybrid
Installation URL https://pepepow.foztor.net/beta/pepepow-miner
Hash algorithm xelishashv2
Miner executable pepepow-miner
Launch parameters (see below)

Launch Parameters Example:

-o stratum+tcp://%URL%:%PORT% --no-longpoll -u %WAL%.%WORKER_NAME% --blake3gpu --gpu-id 0
  1. Save and install.

Create a Flight Sheet

  • Wallet: select your PEPEPOW address
  • Coin: PEPEPOW (custom)
  • Pool: choose or enter URL
  • Miner: select pepepow-hybrid
  • Click Create Flight Sheet

Apply to Rig

  • Go to Workers   select a rig
  • Click Rocket icon   apply Flight Sheet
  • Check logs: /var/log/miner/pepepow-hybrid or web console

Troubleshooting

Issue Fix
libcudart.so.12 missing Update Hive (hive-replace -y --upgrade)
No GPU detected Use nvidia-smi; upgrade to NVIDIA driver 525+
Low hashrate Ensure --blake3gpu is added
Crashes on riser Try x16 slot, reduce --batch-size, lock mem = 810 MHz
