How to run the Miner software:

    Note: The configurations below are the most default you can get, you will gain hashrate by optimizing it for your hardware. A complete list of settings for most CPUs/GPUs and other hardware can be found here.

• BFGMiner

  bfgminer --scrypt  -o stratum+tcp://rby.united-miners.com:3345 -u Weblogin.Worker -p WorkerPass

• CGMiner

  cgminer --scrypt  -o stratum+tcp://rby.united-miners.com:3345 -u Weblogin.Worker -p WorkerPass

• CUDAMiner

  cudaminer -o stratum+tcp://rby.united-miners.com:3345 -O Weblogin.Worker:WorkerPass

• CPUMiner

  minerd --url=stratum+tcp://rby.united-miners.com:3345 --userpass=Weblogin.Worker:WorkPass

If you want, you can create additional workers with usernames and passwords of your choice Here

• Downloading the client & blockchain: Download the RubyCoin client from here.

  Generate a new address and input it on your account page to receive payments. It's also recommended you set an automatic threshold to receive the coins.

• Scrypt readme
• Don't set intensity too high, I=11 is standard and safest. Higher intensity takes more GPU RAM. Check for hardware errors in cgminer (HW). HW=0 is good, otherwise lower intensity :)
• Set shaders according to the readme (or look at your graphic cards specifications). Cgminer uses this value at first run to calculate thread-concurrency. Easiest way to get this optimized is to use same settings as others have used here: here.
• There's also an interesting project which gives you a GUI for cgminer. Windows only it seems.
• Here's a great guide how to get up and running with Xubuntu.
