Linux using expirience

I combine all information i have about XVG and place it here.
If i done mistake or forgot about something useful write me please. i fix this post.

1. Download miner excavator
https://github.com/nicehash/excavator/releases/download/v1.4.4a/excavator_1.4.4a_amd64.deb

better if exist newest. They have official repositories and code under Open source license.
ccminer and other miners using CPU or requires download CUDA (2Gb) and
skills like compiling practice. it works but it seriously take time if you are novice
and you cannot just copy compiled files to other computer.
if you have a 2 or 3 rigs you need compile two-three times or copy all partition with OS.

i waste time to examine how to work with Neoscrypt on Linux and tries 2 working methods
this is simpliest i think.
P.s. forgot about wine.  Wine not support mining code.

2.
 select any working pool from top of this theme like 
http://xvg-lyra.idcray.com/
you can select any other

On pool you must add all your workers like dj--alex.rig1:x ... dj--alex.rig3:x
pool requires register. maybe other pools no


3. Create folder on any location named like "excavator-miner"

take code and paste in verge.json

verge.json
[
{"time":0,"commands":[
   {"id":1,"method":"algorithm.add","params":["lyra2rev2", "sg-mine.idcray.com:10011","dj--alex.rig1:x"]}
]}
   ,
   {"time":3,"commands":[
      {"id":1,"method":"worker.add","params":["0","0"]}
   ]},
   {"time":10,"loop":10,"commands":[
      {"id":1,"method":"algorithm.print.speeds","params":[]}
   ]}
]

don't forget change parameters to yours!!.
your pool , rig name (rig1).
dj--alex.rig1:x -- yourLoginOnPool.WorkerRigName:password  x by default

DO NOT USE YOUR HASH in JSON
use your registered nick.

For testing only you can run JSON file as is without editing.
it must work if you correctly install software and drivers.

3.5 More GPU
on 4 GPUs you'll have to add 3 more workers, like this:
Code:

{"time":3,"commands":[
{"id":1,"method":"worker.add","params":["0","0"]},
        {"id":1,"method":"worker.add","params":["0","1"]},
        {"id":1,"method":"worker.add","params":["0","2"]},
        {"id":1,"method":"worker.add","params":["0","3"]}
]},
4. Open terminal and run
excavator -p 0 -c verge.json

you must see something like this
nfo] core | Algorithm 'lyra2rev2' total speed: 26.843904 MH/s

Share accepted must be written green text.
if not something done wrong.
of course, you can look at statistic of your miner on Pool.
