Hello, Javier.

There’s no installation for Ubuntu version – you should launch terminal, switch to the folder where you have saved and unzipped miner and start it via terminal command. Like:
cd YourUnzippedMinerFolder
sudo chmod +x minergate-cli.bin

And proceed the following instructions

Hello, Neelam.

You need to download and unzip the archive from our website. Then you need to start command line from the folder with the unzipped file. In order to do that you need to press and hold ‘Shift’ button and click the right mouse button on the blank space of the folder. Choose “Run command line from here”.
You can now use the command minergate-cli --help to find all the necessery syntax.
Generally, the start mining command looks like:
minergate-cli -u email --currency threads -g device_no

Where email is your login on MinerGate, --currency is the place for specific coin ticker like XMR for Monero, ETH for Ethereum, threads stands for the number of CPU threads you wish to mine with, device_no is the order number of GPU device which you can find out by using this command -l or --list-gpu.

Hi i need to know what i can do to detect my second graphic card.i use a AMD R9 390 but i also want to use the 1060 3GB card as well. i only get the AMD one working and the Nvidia card is not even showing.

Hi, I have a quick question. I have multiple i5 + GTX 745 workers. The old miner is giving me a nice combined hashrate, however while the new one is ~25% better for CPU, after a GPU calibration cycle which lasts for about 10 minutes, I get ~2 KH/s which is poor to say the least 🙂 Tried with the new beta miner v1.0 and v1.0.1. Installed CUDA 9. Could you offer any advice? I’m using this command (as I only have a single GPU per machine): minergate-cli.exe -u my_email –XMR 8 -g

Thanks in advance 🙂

There is no installation process for the Mac OS CLI version – you need to download the miner, unzip it and open the Terminal from the folder with an extracted miner.
