Running on a Pi-3B & Raspian. I'd think that should work with a RiPii-0 as well..
Nov 2, 2021
Installation and running cgminer on Raspi or other `UX
My Solo Account on Kano.is is somename (fake) To break down per-worker add .
For CompacF it's somename.CompacF
Newpacs are somename.OldNewpacs
Highly suggested to run he F's and any pods on a seperate instance from slower sticks like the Newpacs, 2Pacs, Compac, etc.
Main Forum page for the F's https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5355470.msg58200639#msg58200639

--gekko-compac-freq 305 --gekko-2pac-freq 200 --gekko-newpac-freq 225 --gekko-compacf-freq 425
-- Running CGMiner -
linux:
./cgminer -o stratum+tcp://stratum.kano.is:3333 -u somename.-p x --suggest-diff 442
eg for the Ferarri's
./cgminer -o stratum+tcp://stratum.kano.is:3333 -u somename.CompacF -p x --suggest-diff 442 --gekko-compacf-freq 425

Installation info
- CGMiner Git -
The master git for cgminer is https://github.com/kanoi/cgminer
CGMiner README https://github.com/kanoi/cgminer/blob/master/README
That includes linux compile steps, but to repeat, on linux:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade -y
sudo apt-get install -y build-essential autoconf automake libtool pkg-config libcurl4-openssl-dev libudev-dev libusb-1.0-0-dev libncurses5-dev zlib1g-dev git
cd
git clone https://github.com/kanoi/cgminer.git
cd cgminer
CFLAGS="-O2 -march=native -fcommon" ./autogen.sh --enable-gekko --enable-icarus
make

-Tweaks -
To run it at a higher frequency, add on to the commands above e.g.
--gekko-compacf-freq 400
The latest version of the gekko driver (as of 2021-10-17) has a new mining option:
--gekko-mine2
This uses a slightly different mining loop that also reports all frequency changes to the screen,
and why they change if it stepped down.
There's a second option if you have enabled the mine2 option:
--gekko-tune2 60
that allows the miner to recover lost frequencies if it was unable to match the frequency requested due to the environment, but it later improves e.g. gets cooler.
The '60' means check once per hour - default is don't do it.
The miner may just end up stepping up and down once per check if it can't do better, so there's a lower limit of once per 30 minutes, range is 30-9999
