I think you need to run sumominer.py with python 2, not python 3. You can check your version by running

python --version

I've run it with python2 and python 3 with the same results.

python --version
Python 2.7.6

@Tan-tan-san , that would be a different issue. The error is saying you need the PySide module. You can take a look at https://pypi.python.org/pypi/PySide, that will give you instructions on installing based on your OS.

I also teseted in python 2 but same issue like before.

[zausnerd]

@yeahia2508 If you run
python2 sumominer.py, what error do you see?

[canteboi]

i encountered this one also, even when using python2

python2 sumominer.py

python --version

Python 2.7.12

1. Using PySide for Qt bindings is a bad idea because it's officially a dead project. Use PyQt instead.

2. Using PySide for Qt bindings is a bad idea because it's doesn't support python 3.5 and 3.6.

$ sudo pip install pyside

I need step by step method to build it in ubuntu, am kind of confused

[pangdiin]

This is hard to set up in linux, there is no proper guide WTF!!

Everything is possible, there is a way

[Moogly]

Use apt-get to install pyside and psutil:

sudo apt-get install python-pyside python-psutil

Lastly you'll need the cryptonite_hash library. Idk why the devs didn't just use tk for the UI it's not like this UI is all that fancy and tk has better support throughout Python and is easy to install.
