Hi all - I’m trying to get a mining rig setup on Ubuntu, and seem to be running into issues. I’m hoping someone can point me in the right direction to what I am doing wrong, as I am lost.
I’ve built both grin, and the grin-miner successfully, and enabled the gpu plugins. However, after starting grin and grin-miner, after listening to the wallet, the program immediately quits with a message of "illegal instruction (core dumped). At first, I thought it may be due to gpu plugin/and possibly a misconfigured grin-miner.toml file (I have several cards), but even if I disable the cuda-plugin in the config file and just cpu mine with 2 threads, it immediately bombs out with the same error.
Checking the error log I get this:

Does anyone have any pointers or helpful suggestions so I can get this going? While I’m here, does anyone have any suggestions on how best to craft the config file for multiple GPU’s (specifically gtx 1070’s)? I literally just copied this block:
currently requires 5.5GB+ GPU memory
[[mining.miner_plugin_config]]
plugin_name = “cuckaroo_cuda_29”
#[mining.miner_plugin_config.parameters]
device = 0
cpuload = 1
ntrims = 176
genablocks = 4096
genatpb = 128
genbtpb = 128
trimtpb = 512
tailtpb = 1024
recoverblocks = 1024
recovertpb = 1024
for each device listed in nvidia-smi, which admittedly may be a dumb way to achieve this.
Thank you in advance for any help you may be able to offer.
