Hey guys,

After installing the current version and having no experience with Linux at all, I'm having 2 issues, can you help?

1. I cannot view the miner, typing in "screen -r miner" in the terminal and pressing enter does nothing. Is that the correct place?

2. I switched over to nvOC because i have a rig of 1060s 3GB (MSI Gaming X) and windows does not allow me to go below 100W per card. Even though the cards are close to 300 Sol/s they are very inefficient and my power is expensive. Setting the wattage to a number below 100W on nvOC leads to an error message along the lines of "this wattage will be ignored, values for this GPU needs to be between 100W and 200W". Is there some way for me to bypass this? I saw one card running once on windows with 60W and 240 Sol/s for around 3 minutes, i'd be very glad with a limit of 80 or 75W.

Thank you very much for your help, the OS was really easy to set up and runs fine, very impressed!

Hrm, it's strange for 1060 to have 100 watt as minimum but it's possible. If that's the case, nvOC and linux in general won't be able to set lower PL if the GPU won't allow it. The only solution would be to flash vbios from another model of 1060 which involves the risk of bricking your GPU... if you want to take the risk google "vbios for GTX 1060". There are tons of other forums that deal with flashing GPU's and I've seen lots of people reporting succesfully flashing vbioses from asus to evga, from msi to zotac, etc. Do your research.
