Thanks for the reply but i get the same result... the config file is not loaded, even if i add all the settings to the cmd line and it i can not load the extra settings ... i am clueless. with windows all works Ok .....

if i run in the terminal inside of phoenix folder  the full cmd comand it do not load the extra settings ..... it loads the phoenix , the wallet ... but all the rest remais default.

I use a script like this as to get the best performance PhoenixMiner needs to run as root. Looking at your config,txt there is a typo in it.

config,txt (this is mine):

-nvidia
-nvKernel 3
-nvdo 1
-mode 1
-ftime 10
-gt 0
-tt -55
-cdm 2
-cdmport 10050
-cclock -400
-mclock +1100
-powlim -35
-prate 0.0703
-log 0
-logdir /home/USER/PhoenixMiner_5.6d
-logfile nvidia-pm.log
-pool ssl://eu1.ethermine.org:5555
-pool2 ssl://us1.ethermine.org:5555
-wal YOUR_WALLET
-pass x
-proto 3

Change USER to your own.
I noticed you used Nvidia parameters.

The script I use is:

Code:
#!/bin/bash
#
#set -x

if [ "$EUID" -ne 0 ]; then
echo
echo "Please run with sudo or as root"
echo "Usage: (su or sudo) ./miner.sh"
echo
exit
fi

export GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR=1
export GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE=100
export GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS=1
export GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT=100
export GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT=100

MDIR="$HOME/PhoenixMiner_5.6d"
MINER="$MDIR/PhoenixMiner"

# To have PhoenixMiner running in the background put a hash in front of the next
# line and unhash the last line.
$MINER -config $MDIR/config.txt
#nohup $MINER -config $MDIR/config.txt >/dev/null 2>&1 &

# For monitoring you can use your browser with
# http://localhost:10050 or whatever cdmport you configured in the config.txt.

This script you can put in your HOME directory or desktop.
