Latest NVOC 2.1 beta is still using Teamviewer 12, any plans to include Teamviewer 13 instead? I'm not sure if I can just uninstall 12 and install 13 without breaking anything?

I had my rigs on Win 10 for many months without any issues but since the introduction of equihash ASIC's it became necessary to start moving rigs to ETH. One of my rigs consists of 3gb 1060's which don't work in Win10 for ETH so I searched for alternative operating systems.

I have no experience using Linux before but nvoc was a piece of cake to setup. Simple editing of the 1bash to setup overclocks and enabling teamviewer was pretty much all that had to be done. Only thing I didn't like was no option to set a max fan speed before limiting power as I never want fans to run at 100% since they tend to be the most likely component to fail first as well as being noisy. I was able to fix that myself though just by opening the fan script and replacing the line checking if fan speed is at 100 to 80 instead.

Only other complaint is that I can't seem to get the telegram bot to work. I used the video tutorial and made sure the chat id & api is correct but nothing is ever sent to the bot.

Can we get an option to disable the scheduled miner restart messages? I have multiple rigs with audio alerts on the telegram bot chat in case of problems so it is annoying to be spammed with "scheduled miner restart" and "miner started" messages only to find out there is nothing that requires my attention when I check the app.

Re: [ANN] Bminer: a fast Equihash miner for CUDA GPUs (5.3.0)

5. To many newbies posting here (including myself) makes it fell like a scam.  Hey, Spiralx, what do you call a person who buys a 7x1070 Ti and a 6x1060 (3gb) rig, never posts anything about "what to mine?", "what software to use?", "how to make a wallet work?", no support questions, no opinions about coins/hardware, an instant expert on his large hardware investment, then makes only 2 posts?  Oh yeah, both posts are praising biminer?

I don't need to post dumb questions on this forum because I use reddit and I did my own research before making mining rigs when I built them months ago. It's also wrong to say both my posts are praising Bminer, my first post was simply asking for Acrefawn to add bminer support to his watchdog script and thanking him for being responsive when I donated for the premium version. Laughable assumption to think this forum is the only source of information and nobody can own mining rigs without asking stupid questions here.

I did however end up switching back to DSTM for now though since I decided an extra 1-2% hash rate isn't really worth the risks of using a somewhat shady miner.

Switched two rigs from DSTM to Bminer on zhash.pro pool.

First rig = 7x1070 Ti getting 3410 sol/s on DSTM / 3500 sol/s on Bminer
Second rig = 6x1060 (3gb) getting 1610 sol/s on DSTM / 1670 sol/s on Bminer

Numbers given in the Bminer window match the numbers shown to me on the zhash pool website under "average hashrate" (https://i.imgur.com/x8nF2Fk.png) nearly perfectly which suggests the numbers aren't fake but maybe someone can point out a reason this isn't sufficient "proof".

Either way I'll stick with using Bminer for now until someone can actually prove this miner is fraudulent. I also have ZERO rejected shares on all of my rigs running Bminer at the time of this post.

Registered just to say this script is excellent and I also contacted Acrefawn who responded instantly so I could donate for the premium version.

Looking forward to support for Bminer, great work.
