Personally I really like Monero for the fact that it is completely anonymous and CPU mining is actually worth it. Currently on all of my CPUs I mine XMR. So here is a step by step guide to mining XMR with your CPU on Ubuntu. ## Step 1: Get a Monero Wallet [MyMonero](https://mymonero.com/#/) Make sure you save the string of words it gives you because this is basically your password. Once you have this you'll need to copy your XMR address. ## Step 2: Install dependencies Now I will say I know how to use Ubuntu and I have built quite a few computers with this OS, but this is just a list of dependencies that if I run all of them I don't have any problems. Some of these might not be needed, but they won't hurt. You will want to open your terminal by pressing 'Ctrl+Alt+T', and copy and paste these lines into the terminal and press enter. To paste into the terminal you can not just press 'Ctrl+V' you need to press 'Ctrl+Shift+V'. And if for some reason you need to kill a process that is running in your terminal you need to press 'Ctrl+C'. So here are all the dependencies, this is easily the longest part of the tutorial. First we will need to set up a root password. To do this: sudo passwd root Then type your desired password. Now to sign in as root: su Now to install all the dependencies: sudo apt-get install git sudo add-apt-repository main sudo add-apt-repository universe sudo add-apt-repository restricted sudo add-apt-repository multiverse sudo apt-get update sudo apt install ocl-icd-opencl-dev sudo apt-get install libmicrohttpd-dev libssl-dev cmake build-essential sudo apt-get install automake libtool make gcc sudo apt-get install libjansson-dev sudo apt-get update sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-toolchain-r/test sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install g++-5 sudo apt-get upgrade sudo update-initramfs -u sudo apt-get install libopenblas-dev liblapack-dev sudo apt-get install linux-image-generic linux-image-extra-virtual sudo apt-get install linux-source linux-headers-generic sudo apt-get install libglu1-mesa libxi-dev libxmu-dev -y sudo apt-get — yes install build-essential sudo apt-get install python-pip python-dev -y sudo apt-get install python-numpy python-scipy -y sudo apt-get install libglu1-mesa libxi-dev libxmu-dev libglu1-mesa-dev sudo apt-get install apt-file && apt-file update sudo apt-get upgrade sudo apt-get install software-properties-common sudo add-apt-repository ppa:george-edison55/cmake-3.x sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install cmake sudo apt-get upgrade Once you have installed all of these we don't want to be super user any more so type: exit ## Step 3: Download and and install xmr-stak-cpu We will need to clone the github repository. git clone https://github.com/fireice-uk/xmr-stak-cpu.git Once you have done this you will now have the option to edit the donation level. To do this edit the file called 'donate-level.h', the initial amount is set to 1.0 but you can change it to 0.0 if you do not want to donate to the developers. Now to install: cd xmr-stak-cpu cmake -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=/usr/bin/g++-5 -DCMAKE_CC_COMPILER=/usr/bin/gcc5 make install cd bin chmod +x xmr-stak-cpu ## Step 4: Decide how many threads you should use To do this find out how much cache your CPU has and how many cores it has. So I have a CPU that has 4mb cache and 4 cores. In order to figure out how many threads you want to use you want to divide your cache by 2mb. So this CPU should use only 2 threads because 4mb/2mb=2. I also have an AMD FX-9590. This has 16mb of cache and 8 cores. You would think that I should be using 8 threads, but that isn't the case. If the amount of threads you should be using is equal to the number of cores you have subtract 1. We don't want to use every core. So I mine with 7 threads on this chip because 16mb/2mb=8 and we have 8 cores so we subtract 1 and are left with 7 threads. ## Step 5: Edit the config file Once you have installed the miner you should go into xmr-stak-cpu's /bin folder and edit this 'config.txt' file. Click [here](https://pastebin.com/ZPJdbp7e) to look at my config file. You will notice the section under 'cpu_threads_conf' is where you will put how many threads to use. This file is set up for 7 threads so remove as you feel necessary. Also you will need to scroll down and change the wallet address to your wallets address. ## Step 6: Load Huge Pages If you open up the config file you will notice a section outlining how to enable huge pages on Linux. But if you are lazy [here](https://pastebin.com/5bmtnSp7) is a pastebin link to what to do. At the end it will ask you to reset your computer. ## Step 7: Create a start.sh file While in the ../xmr-stak-cpu/bin repository create a file called 'start.sh'. Inside the file put this: sudo sysctl -w vm.nr_hugepages=128 sudo ./xmr-stak-cpu config.txt Once you have created it, in the remaining in the bin repository in the terminal put: chmod +x start.sh ## Step 9: Start up XMR-STAK-CPU Navigate into your xmr-stak-cpu/bin folder in your terminal and become a super user. su sudo ./start.sh # Congradulations!! You are now mining Monero on your CPU! If you have any other questions feel free to ask me! <a href="https://minergate.com"> <img src="https://minergate.com/assets/promo/250x250-1.png"/> </a>

Thank you very much for this very straight forward guide, helped me alot even with my mediocre knowledge of CLI :) LOL I got it working in Microsoft Azure, Ubuntu 16.04. [You can keep up with my experiement here!](https://steemit.com/monero/@casiotech/monero-mining-experiment)

https://github.com/fireice-uk/xmr-stak-cpu/blob/master/LINUXCOMPILE.md - the steps here are much shorter, especially the part about adding all the dependency files.

hey thanks for the guides, I was curious is this solo mining or pool mining? my hash is relatively low so I am thinking if solo mining I could go days and days without seeing a result

This is pool mining. You can even check your stats if you go to [their site](http://minexmr.com/#worker_stats) and put in your wallet address.

Thanks buddy. Got any experience in running a raspberry pi stack with this configuration?

Let's do. Do you think a stack will work with Orangi Pi too? Lets say 20x stack?

Was thinking we all agree on execution as follows: a.) PARTSLIST, agreed by you and me. We both build. The reason to project together is to learn from each other and remain motivated. Basic Orange Pi or Raspberry Pi setup depending on available hardware for 1. power supply (like usb distributor) and 2. network hub and 3. mechanical stacking components. I am sitting in Perth / Australia, I can order from RS Components for myself. But I was thinking we need a standard, so that any dude anywhere can build. Therefore really internationally available components. And dirt cheap. But so good that you can sell it to your neighbour if he wants to mine. A good quality thing you can be proud of, and kicks ass. b.) SOFTWARE for 1. stacking/clustering so that all cores are networked together into one single CPU with lets say 40 cores or 32 cores. This should make for an excellent Monero miner. And 2. mining software optimisation, field testing. Github forks. c.) AMORTISATION of incurred cost for a labor and materials via small scale hobby style commercialisation and keys for Github forks. Please comment. All ideas and critisism welcome.

You just made it so complicated... just download MinerGate linux app... https://minergate.com/downloads/gui Create your account and clic "Start" on Monero. i just wonder if you found this to be better concerning Hashrate.

You get about double the hashrate with this. And minergates algorithms kind of suck. Their uncle rate with ethereum is by far the worst out of all the pools.

I haven't tried it on my laptop, but I'm sure it would work. If you want a super super simple miner there is Minergate. [Here is their site](https://minergate.com/a/89e82935e92305a1d5353ee4).

Can confirm. I mined monero with minergate on a number of laptops simultaneously. If I remember correctly I got pissed off with minergate because I had to have atleast 1 Monero to transfer Moneros to elsewhere and then the charges went through the roof. That may have changed by now.
