I've posted a short desciption to get them hashing...:

@Milquetoast
thx
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)
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
sudo systemctl stop cgminer.service
(Stops cgminer)
7. type
sudo systemctl disable cgminer.service
(Stops cgminer from starting at boot)
8. type
sudo systemctl enable bfgminer.service
(Makes bfgminer start at boot)
9. type
sudo systemctl start bfgminer.service
(Starts bfgminer) You should now be mining, use the next steps to check
10. type
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.
