try
http://sourceforge.net/projects/libwdi/files/zadig/

to set the driver to libusb (I think).  I don't have Icarus boards to test this with, but I think that was the change in the recent versions of cgminer to use libusb instead of serial usb.

Check FPGA-README, ASIC-README
did all that, no dice

Then I don't know.  The errors you are getting are from initialization of USB interface.  ASIC-README says you should set it to WinUsb (my previous post about libusb is wrong).

I don't have the device so I cannot test to say what works with the latest version of cgminer.  Try what yxt is suggesting.

post more infos.

how do you start cgminer?

...\cgminer-3.1.1-windows\cgminer-nogpu.exe --icarus-options 115200:1:1 --icarus-timing 3.0=100

Looking at the code:

You are getting _usb_init() errors.  Try to set the driver to WinUSB in zadig.

EDIT: Add -S to scan

Arklan, any update on how far you got on shipping?

 Hoping for an update myself Sad Would be nice to think the sticks could be overnighted for delivery tomorrow.

mineforeman is working on an update which will make these USB sticks plug & play, but until then, here's how I got minepeon beta 1 working with them now. *There may be a better way, this is just how I did it.

At the command line:
1. type (or copy/paste)
Code:
sudo nano /usr/lib/systemd/system/bfgminer.service
Now you're looking at a simple text editor
2. use the down arrow to find the line that starts with "ExecStart=" This is the command that will start bfgminer
3. on that line, use the right arrow to find "bfgminer -S auto"
4. change "-S auto" to "-S /dev/ttyUSB0" for a single miner, or "-S /dev/ttyUSB0 -S /dev/ttyUSB1" etc for multiple sticks
5. press ctrl+x to exit. nano will ask if you want to save your changes, press y.
6. type
Code:
sudo systemctl stop cgminer.service
(Stops cgminer)
7. type
Code:
sudo systemctl disable cgminer.service
(Stops cgminer from starting at boot)
8. type
Code:
sudo systemctl enable bfgminer.service
(Makes bfgminer start at boot)
9. type
Code:
sudo systemctl start bfgminer.service
(Starts bfgminer) You should now be mining, use the next steps to check
10. type
Code:
sudo screen -r
to display the miner's console interface, check to make sure it's mining
11. hold ctrl and tap a then d to exit back to the prompt without killing bfgminer

If you have any trouble, feel free to PM me. I'll provide as much help as I'm able.

I just hope my Minepeon install works without any hitch.

Don't worry, it'll work. =)
I only had a few minutes to mess with it between when the mail showed up and when I had to leave for work, but I can confirm that the latest minepeon will run these with bfgminer.
You'll have to tweak the command a little bit, but I can walk you through that. I'll mess with it some more when I have some free time and see if I can get cgminer working as well.

Arklan: It was a pleasure doing business with you.

canary,

that driver is for bfgminer, the cgminer needs libusb WinUSB

try to set it in zadig and set it to WinUSB. Read ASIC-README.
