Hi guys,
still being fairly new to Linux i encountered the following problem:
Recently i built a rig with a Ryzen 7 1700x and AMD GPU´s and then installed nvOC 19-2.0 Community.
Did not work at all, always got stuck in a login loop and the miner1 password didn´t work, the rig stayed in the login loop.
So obviously i started searching the web and found several threads with exactly the same problem, not for nvOC but Ubuntu 16.04. And there were some solutions which helped others like reassign the read write permissions, renewing .Xauthority and other solutions but none of these worked on my rig, it stayed in the login loop no matter what i did. I used a freshly imaged nvOC 19-2.0 with no changes whatsoever.
I could ctrl+alt+f1 into a tty and login but i could not get nvOC to start and run a miner.
So i figured i just try a different combination and changed the motherboard and now it gets weired. After changing the mobo the same thing happened i was stuck in the login loop so i started to change everything. I tried several motherboard´s, switched memory sticks, used Nvidia GPU´s as well as AMD GPU´s, put nvOC on an USB stick as well as on a harddisk but nothing worked for me in combination with a Ryzen processor. I also tried a Ryzen 3 and a Ryzen 5. Using a windows setup all these combinations worked just fine but not with nvOC.
The second i put a Ryzen processor into any one rig and install nvOC i always get stuck in a login loop.
So is there anybody out there successfully mining with a Ryzen processor and nvOC?
Was anybody stuck in the login loop on nvOC and successfully resolved this matter and how?
Sorry guy´s i am lost here, need some help i can´t use nvOC with a Ryzen processor.
