Help installing Phoenix miner using natty narwhal 11.04? Complete linux newbie

Hey everyone,

A friend and I decided to make a joint venture and set up a mining rig. We set it up running windows 7 off an old hard drive,
and have found various clients worked perfectly on it.

However, phoenix has the promising allure of a 5-20% performance boost, so I've been trying to mess around with
setting that up

I've used the following guides:

To make a usb version of linux--
http://www.pendrivelinux.com/universal-usb-installer-easy-as-1-2-3/

To (try and) install phoenix and everything else--
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=50388.0

The USB linux works fine, and installing phoenix goes mostly without error.

The following problems come up though, from the second guide I posted:
"screen -S update sudo apt-get install fglrx vim openssh-server subversion git-core python-numpy g++ libboost-all-dev" -- liboost-all-dev cannot be found, or does not exist. It won't let me download unless I remove that line.

"make -j3
sudo make install" -- both steps give errors, I can retry and get specifics or screenies if needed.

Additionally, and finally, whenever I turn off the computer, any changes I've made revert to my stock linux. How do I fix that?


I've tried doing some searching on my own, but my lack of familiarity with linux is a real roadblock. If you can help, either post here or message me. I'd be willing to donate some BTC for your troubles.
Thanks~

Excellent. I was looking for a list like this, the ones I found via Bing/Google were sketchy.

*facepalm* NOW I read that I could request to have my topic moved to another board if it doesn't get answered sufficiently. But I already locked it in the Newbie section. Damn.

Right now I've earned enough money to buy myself a donut and some coffee after mining for oh, 48 hours straight.
When the ASICs come in I should expect to be earning a buck a year on my PC. Damned lunchboxes.
If I bought a Jalapeno or other one of those, combined with everyone else buying one, I wouldn't be surprised if I wind up at the same profit rate as I am now. Not really interested in investing in an box  unless I see a promising gain of at least $120 per month.

I'm new here
I live in US
hope to learn many things from this forum about bitcoin business

As time goes on, more and more bitcoin neurons will be added to your brain, after all, everything
you know is located in the memory part of the brain. So therefore I am technically right.


can i mine those

Re: BFL did lie about their ASIC! NEW info.

All this still feels unfounded... Let's wait until we see what they do. Which I somewhat hope the ASICs are a hoax so I can at least see more insane rigs that span entire walls. I like that creativity going on. These lunchboxes take out a lot of the fun.

On another note, this guy who is blowing the whistle on BFL sure has a tendency to be a name caller and is more argumentative than trying to actually come up with a logical conclusion.

AMD Phenom II X6 1090T
8 GB RAM.
2x ATI Radeon HD 5770 Sapphire.

Using Reaper and ScryptMiner.

Reaper's code:
Code:
protocol litecoin
worksize 256
aggression max
threads_per_gpu 2
sharethreads 18
lookup_gap 2
gpu_thread_concurrency 6144

Scryptminer's settings:
No additional parameters.

Doing GPU and CPU (5 of 6, 6 of 6 when idling computer) mining and so far I've got a generous 80-81 kH/s going here.
I'm sure I can get more out of these video cards, at the very least.
Suggestions?
