@ CHAOSiTEC - digression from topic - look at this post https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.9538818, maybe you can help!
Any of you have a dead board ? I need the a capacitor like the on at C17. (we got of them per board) One of mine is broken at C415.
Any place I could by one ?
thanks !

okay so i have bought 18 boards what do i need to get them all to mine?
is all i need a CP2102 for each card and an usb hub?
Is there a compiled version of cgminer that works with a raspberry pi and would recognise the cards?
thanks,
JT

you need a powered hub that works with raspberry pi to connect all the cp2102s to (see http://elinux.org/RPi_Powered_USB_Hubs#Working_USB_Hubs)
install latest raspbian and do:
Code:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install build-essential autoconf automake libtool pkg-config libcurl3-dev libudev-dev git
git clone https://github.com/FireWalkerX/cgminer-bmsc.git
cd cgminer-bmsc
./autogen.sh --enable-bmsc
make
thats it??
what is the average what/gh ?
Would i access it like an normal antminer after these steps??
well, you will need to access the raspberry pi via ssh, i would suggest google 'linux screen command'
hmm it seems like your not sure what your doing, so i suggest, read all of this thread, and, look at antminer s1 undervolt thread ( if you dont undervolt, it will do 2 watt/gh, if you undervolt you can go down to theoritical 0.9 watt/gh mine is at 1.1 watt/gh but read the threads carefully..

As soon as i can get an UART => USB cp2102, i will try it. I found some cheap on ebay but with like 2 weeks of shipment delay ...
Still looking for a local pickup somewhere at a reasonable price.

Found some in the US, gotta wait a week, 5 for 19$
not bad !not bad at all :-p

I will try to get one at least to test my boards !
pekatete , it would be great if you could share me your cgminer !
I was able to compile cgminer 4.7.0 for and under windows using MinGW but not able to run it without significant errors (and at times it would not detect the board!). It therefore is not a binary that would be useful for sharing, and seeing the pre-compiled version 3.8.5 for windows reconises both the CP210x (as AMU / LIX / etc) and the PL230x (as ICA and ... ?), you would be better off getting that one, available here: https://github.com/AntMiner/AntGen1/blob/master/cgminer/cgminer-run-windows-20131224.zip?raw=trueI will try to get one at least to test my boards !
pekatete , it would be great if you could share me your cgminer !
PS. You may need to change over the TX / RX connectors on some of the modules as the lines can be twisted!
but, on the other hand we might be able to verify either:
1. problem with source
2. problem with windows
3. problem with specific setup
so it might be a good idea to get them tested on another windows machine..
just my 2 cents :-p
However, if even after that someone still wants to get a hold of the binary I compiled and / or the code i used to compile it, just point me to where you'd like me to upload it and its yours!
PS. I did mention earlier in the thread that I was working on something else, more specifically a windows driver. I can update the thread to the effect that I have actually gone to ground to write a windows miner that uses COM ports. I am working on the initialisation of the S1 board and work division in the code, and when I have some extra time off, I'll be looking to finishing it off and showcasing it! For me, that represented a better alternative than trying to wrestle the generic cgminer code targeting multiple rigs and written in a foreign language (C++!)
allright thanks, i will try to compile mine
I will take ChaosItec git cgminer code and give it a try with MinGW.
compiled windows version:
download here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/v6o5o9jvvwc1hjs/cgminer.zip?dl=0
remember to install zadig drivers: http://zadig.akeo.ie/
thanks you so much !
the problem in windows is a driver issue.. im no windows guru, im mostly a linux guy, so your on your own on that part
Looks all good on your screenshot ?
i get problems with the winusb driver with 2 or more boards..
edit: FIXED
its a conflict with another driver/device installed, in this case, it was the sdcard slot, i uninstalled the driver, and now it works
Thanks !

I guess i will try to get some UART => USB adapter (that is the CP2102 right ?) since we still a few weeks away from the controller.
EDIT: Any chance to get your cgiminer compiled for windows ? I also have a bfgminer running for an old BFL unit. I guess it can't work with both running at the same time ?

pekatete has it compiled, maybe he can post a link?
you can keep BFL running with bfgminer, and start an instance with cgminer, no problem
yes, its the cp210x series we are using, ive looked around, and cound not find any cp2104 or 8s within a decent pricerange, so it is cheaper to just buy the cp2102s until j4bber is done with the 8 port version... i will see if i can squeeze a little extra out of the proto when it arrives

hmm ive been running my 5xs1 blades for the last couple of hours, and
cgminer is reporting 254.7 GH,
and
slush pool is reporting: 262.508 GH
since slush pool is calculated over the last hour, and cgminer is supposed to be average since start, i keep thinking about some code i saw in the code, that hashing speed is calculated out of a guestimate.. so maybe i should use the data on slush pool for guestimating the gh/w ratio if it keeps being over, what do you guys think?

What is Your PL2303 Vendor and Device ID?
It's being seen as 067b:2303, I will try again with strictly the --enable-icarus instead of --enable-bmsc. According to lsmod, the driver is loaded properly, and /dev/ttyUSB0 is being made (until it is grabbed by cgminer)

That's what I appear to get with solely enabled icarus.
I have a sneaking suspicion this might be due to the fact that the uarts I'm using are the super-cheap (ie, counterfeit) ones. They work fine when shorting RX and TX, but might not be behaving 100% correctly.
