I've tried to make the current git master compile against the system libusb optionally now with the --with-system-libusb option.
That does sound very useful.
Mine's been up for over 6 days now with no issue.

I could compile a debug version for you, which you'll have to run with gdb, to try can catch the error.

There's a 'low memory' flag you could try adding to cgminer.sh '--lowmem' might help?
I'll try running with that flag next time, I can't get cgminer running as a service FYI. Every time It crashes I have to kill the screen instance if it doesn't default back to a prompt and retype the whole damned line. I wouldn't mind running a debug verison if it will help figure out what is causing this bug.

Nice, that's very useful, thanks.

Yet another Seg fault  Angry
How can I check to see what's causing these? At least this time around I didn't have to reboot the router.

Thanks for your reply.

I could test it, and help you in any ways. I'm compiling things since a long time using gcc on linux, but can't find your method for cgminer.

Anyway it could add support for Atheros peoples. I'm ready for testing purpose.

Is there a way to get cgminer working on Atheros based router (TPLINK WR1043ND) that cannot use 'service' command.

Got DD-WRT installed with Optware (Optware trick for Atheros comes from http://www.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=86912&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0 that permit to use 'opkg' instead of 'service' command).

Tried with 'opkg' :

root@BNT /tmp $ opkg install cgminer_3.6.3_mipsel.ipk
Unknown package 'cgminer'.
Collected errors:
 * pkg_hash_fetch_best_installation_candidate: Packages for cgminer found, but incompatible with the architectures configured
 * opkg_install_cmd: Cannot install package cgminer.


There's your problem.

If I put a lot of effort in, I probably could get it to compile for atheros... but then I couldn't test it in any way.

ipkg returns nothing :

Code:
root@BNT /tmp $ ipkg install cgminer_3.6.3_mipsel.ipk 
ERROR: File not found: //usr/local/lib/ipkg/lists/whiterussian
       You probably want to run `ipkg update'
ERROR: File not found: //usr/local/lib/ipkg/lists/non-free
       You probably want to run `ipkg update'
ERROR: File not found: //usr/local/lib/ipkg/lists/backports
       You probably want to run `ipkg update'
/bin/ipkg: line 1184: sort: not found
root@BNT /tmp $

The error returned with ipkg comes from the optware atheros trick and doesn't matter.

Thanks for help.

Cron can do that, you'll have to google it though.

Try 3.6.3, may work better. I'm not going to release 3.6.4, the changes I don't think will much affect this build.

ARGH! This is the 5th time or so I've gotten a Seg fault or LibUSB I/O error.  Cry It seems to happen almost every 24-30 hours or so. I wonder if this is an issue in 3.6.1? I hope updating to 3.6.3 fixes it, I was waiting for another update but..Maybe I can make a scheduled script to restart it every 20 hours if it still shows up..What would be the best way to do that?

http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Optware%2C_the_Right_Way

and use 2GB flash drive (256MB - swap , other left for OPT approximately 1.7GB )

That is odd.
It starts with cgminer.sh, but not manually? I don't get it. That's weird.

You could try starting cgminer manually, and having a look at the messages during start up to see if it's enabling the API.
Can't say what's going on there. Looks like it should work. Firewall issue?
