SumoEasyMiner works on Ubuntu 17.10!

Sorry for opening an issue for this. I will also create a pull request to add these instructions to the README.

I had pretty much the same issues compiling and executing SumoEasyMiner as most people here.

My system (you can check the installed and to be installed version by executing sudo apt-cache policy [package-name]).

• ubuntu 17.10
• python 2.7.14
• cmake 3.9.1-1
• gcc 4:7.2.0-1
• python-dev 2.7.14-2
• python-pip 9.0.1-2
• python-pyside 1.2.2+source1-1build1
• psutil 5.4.3

Here are the steps to get it to work:

• Clone or download SumoEasyMiner repo.
• Clone or download cryptonight-hash-lib.
• sudo apt-get install cmake gcc python-dev python-pip python-pyside
• pip install psutil
• cd /path/to/cryptonight-hash-lib
• cmake . The last lines of the output should look something like this:

  -- Configuring done
  -- Generating done
  -- Build files have been written to: /path/to/cryptonight-hash-lib

• make The last lines of the output should look something like this:

  [100%] Linking C shared library cryptonite_hash.so
  [100%] Built target cryptonite_hash

• Copy just created cryptonite_hash.so from cryptonight-hash-lib folder to /path/to/SumoEasyMiner/libs folder

• Run the miner with python sumominer.py
• Start mining

Hi there, you know how to configure the wallet address and pool address using command line ? I currently stuck at configuration and the error I receive when running python sumominer.py is sumominer.py: cannot connect to X server. Thank you !

@themyth92 You can change the wallet and pool directly in sumominer but it sounds like sumominer isn't executing. Have you tried to search for the error on stackoverflow, ...?

No, I have not found any solutions for command line, so I switch to using xmr-stak for my ubuntu instead.

Good idea. Closing this issue
