I'm trying to configure the 2pac on a raspberry pi but after I finish entering the code, the readout says there are no gekko devices enabled.  What am I missing here?
Do you use cgminer?
Did you compile it yourself exactly like described in post #1?
What operating system do you use?

I got the 2pac configured but when i go to run "./cgminer -o stratum+tcp://pool.ckpool.org:3333 -u 1BURGERAXHH6Yi6LRybRJK7ybEm5m5HwTr -p x --suggest-diff 32"
I get an error saying that cgminer command wasnt found

try this to make sure you are in the right directory-
cd git/vthoang/cgminer
./cgminer -o stratum+tcp://pool.ckpool.org:3333 -u YOURWALLETID -p x --suggest-diff 32

I'm assuming of course you set everything as per page 1. If so, that should do the trick I would think. If you give the command to run cgminer without being in the correct directory, it won't work.

I guess it was just a syntax error, your suggested code worked but im getting a new error saying there is no work coming from the servers.  I signed up with slushpool and registered a worker.. not sure what else I need to do here.

I rebuilt the controller for my 2Pac's and now a strange issue I've never had before. This is really probably more an Ubuntu 14.04 question.

Does anyone know why a screen session would show active in "ps -aux",  but not be listed with "screen -ls" (sudo and su don't work either)? The miners are connected to the pool and running but I can't connect to the screen session.
If I run the same startup script after boot manually everything works as expected. I use the same boot process on all my miners and have never seen this issue before, but is has been a while since I rebuilt one.

If your screen launches as part of your startup, you need to launch it as your miner user, not the root user. (su miner -c '
