[evorion]

Nicehash made API changes that affect Nuxhash.

Do you have a solution for us, or were you looking for one? I'm stuck also

[evorion]

I have managed to patch a few things even though I have never done anything in Python. But since the author is nowhere to be found I can't even get a pull request submitted.

[YoRyan]

Please, don't let that stop you...

[kinteseay]

So does this mean an update is coming soon?

Hi,
Please note I'm only an enthusiast without any coding skills and not much experience using Linux but I think I've also managed to patch the Python wx.lib.pubsub issue by replacing the dependencies with pypubsub.

Now I'm stuck here:

Has anyone made it this far? Am I on the right track?

Seems like the GUI's appearance has changed which would account for half of the buttons missing there. I also believe the API changes are reflected in the errors expressed on the final lines pasted above.

Edit:
Last but not least: The excavator downloads but no other "Nicehash" authorised miners are downloading?? Maybe This has always been the case but I don't know because I'm relatively new to nicehash and even fresher mining on Linux.

Anyone able to shed some light regarding what still needs to be addressed?
I think the entire community would really appreciate it. :)

Cheers!

If someone want to manually change the Fix from DG, the location on my system (Debian) is /usr/local/lib/python3.7/dist-packages/nuxhash so your files should also be near that place for you.
