i was just reading all the avalon cluster**** (pretty much every other thread here besides this one), i think you should all consider yourselves very lucky by choosing buzzdave/bitfury instead of avalon, as i understand pretty much nobody got their hardware, buyers are left with no hardware no refund, and board manufacturers are left with all the useless boards they purchased with no chips and angry buyers while the difficulty continues to gap higher by the day making the preorders irrelevant. What a mess.

I hope the bitfury oct delivery will also go as smoothly as august.  


That is incorrect, Avalon users either have hardware or refunds - it was a script error. Chip buyers have either received chips or queued for refunds.

Bullshit.  Avalon trade-ins customers are in limbo since April.  Some paid at the beginning of July.  Nobody got a single email back from Avalon
team.  Zip, nada.

And you want to compare him with Dave?  You need to have your head examined.

The only reason Yifu started refunds (with mining profits I might add) is because of the number of people he pissed off.  He quickly realized he is not welcomed here.  If he is thinking gen2, he better do it in 2015 when most people forget what he has done.
No more rock star status for him.  So get over this "Avalon worship" BS.

Say what needs to be said.  They fucked a lot of customers; with a barb wire.



I'm not talking about trade ins, I never was. Nor did I mention ANYTHING about a comparison with 'Dave', I don't even care who that is.

You clearly have a vendetta against Avalon so I won't bother arguing with a brick wall. I was merely clearing up some of the FUD. B3 has been refunded, there is no other truth regardless of how much you rage.


Correct logic would be:  Avalon Customers have either received units or not received units or received refunds.
You guys are posting in the wrong thread about Avalons and Avalon Trade-ins.

Hmmm.   Wonder how it works on the version-1 M-boards where things aren't organized by bank.....

@BuzzDave - any word about your FedEx shipment?  Any news?

(I still want to click START MINER and DOWNLOAD CURRENT SOFTWARE every time I see that screen...)

Thanks to Niko and his team for developing a nice web interface for the rPi controller.



also he put up the chainminer code on a github:
https://github.com/bfsb/chainminer

I'd love to see some community effort around improving both the piWeb front end, stratum failover options & chainminer itself...

I guess we can "Bank" on this. LOL!   Hahahahaha, I kill me! heh.

Awesome... I want to try chainminer on my bitfury hardware to see if cgminer is causing my issues...


I have it built and it detects my chips, but I'm having trouble figuring out how to use it exactly... I don't see anywhere to enter pool details, and it spins the chips up but doesn't seem to run them according to the stat.json and .stat.log, which makes sense because where would it get work?

Not sure what I'm missing exactly; can someone clue me in? Cheesy

EDIT: looks like jobconnect.o has the pools, and it's set up to connect to a local proxy.  Installing stratum proxy now.

Have you contacted cgminer's developer to find that out?? If somebody sent him a sample board, he'd have been done by now with the updated code, etc.

Not yet, but now I'm about certain it's cgminer, because chainminer is ROCKING:


speed:378 noncerate[GH/s]:18.382 (2.626/chip) hashrate[GH/s]:18.053 good:1284 errors:70 spi-errors:0 miso-errors:1 jobs:288 (record[GH/s]:0.000)


Did you have your own boards ready to populate? That is really fast going from bare chips to hashing.

I had four chips on hand from late july.  I spun a board and got those last thursday.   Got the four chips up and hashing over the weekend, and then got four more chips from Dave yesterday.

Is there a repository up for the web interface?

Still 1/2 a work day left where Dave is - not even noon there yet.  Fedex ought to be knocking at his door any minute...  Smiley

Some order stats:

There are only 23 orders to fill to get to Order #50 - this is because OpenCart reserves a lot of order numbers when people add things to their cart, etc.  This pattern continues throughout at about a 2:1 ratio.

There are only 5 full rigs to make in those first 23 orders, the rest are starter kits.

We plan to ship at least something Friday and more on Saturday.  We'll likely lose Monday, but if anyone is open we'll ship everything we have tested.  I expect to have shipped everything by the following weekend if the fab holds to their promises.

Dave


Dave, will you be including tracking numbers immediately upon shipping? I ordered some chips and was sent a notification of shipment, but never got a tracking number (even though the notification said tracking # would follow shortly) and didn't know to stay home to receive the package (not a big deal since I didn't need the chips immediately). Is this a manual process? I'm sure people traveling during the long weekend will need to schedule around delivery.

Expedited shipping should reach the west coast on Saturday if you ship on Friday, right?

thanks!
Yvonne has been shipping manually, but we are working to automate it - expecting the email of tracking number to be automated too.  Since these will ship Signature Required, we'll make sure you know when to be home...

Did any orders ship already? Will we get tracking info by email when our orders ship?

  Nothing ship out yet but maybe Friday.

Yes. Unless you really want to code your own. Smiley

You are incorrect.  FedEx and UPS do Saturday deliveries.  At an extra added charge.

You are quoting superseded posts. Read my last post on this topic for all details: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.3033816

Correct, Saturday-delivery is possible but must be explicitly added when overnighting.
