I want to report maybe a bug Smiley, Using 11.7:
When I try to start Claymore:
miner@newrig_rx:~$ ./clay/start.sh
/home/miner/clay/ethdcrminer64: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcurl.so.4: version `CURL_OPENSSL_3' not found (required by /home/miner/clay/ethdcrminer64)
^C
miner@newrig_rx:~$ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID:   Ubuntu
Description:   Ubuntu 18.04 LTS
Release:   18.04
Codename:   bionic
Probably, I think there is bug with Claymore - looks for CURL_OPENSSL_3 and not newer versions, because with libcurl3 installed - it works fine, but it doesn't work with libcurl4 (default lib).
Read for some fixes for ArchLinux (They didn't work to me on Ubuntu), but I think that with using Ubuntu 18.04 more and more people will see this error.
Thank you in advance.

Ok I'll check it.

Claymore, there is a libcurl3 package that can be installed (if libcurl4 is uninstalled).  However, 18.04 systems have other packages that depend on libcurl4.  Most notably for me virtualbox-5.2 and obs-studio.  I realize this would not be a problem for a dedicated mining rig, but some of us also do off-hours mining on our desktop rigs.
