That's great, now people can use CPUminer with services as Betarig!

I'm getting right away a virus warning tho with this version, I'm not getting it with previous version.

Virus warning is common with mining software.

I have 4 blades, how do I setup with cpuminer? Can you link me compiled windows version and what to put for blades to work? LTC mode only and freq838. Is it possible to put cpuminer in a raspberry image? like scripta or hashra?

Nice. I like cpuminer. But I'm guessing it still doesn't know the hash rate, so I will depend on the pool stats.

The cpuminer git repo has been updated, now include Blade support.

Code:

./minerd --gc3355=/dev/ttyACM0,/dev/ttyACM1,/dev/ttyACM2,... --gc3355-autotune --gc3355-chips=40 --freq=825 --url=stratum+tcp://doge.ghash.io:3333 --userpass=user.pass

Bruiser and I got the Blades to work on cpuminer, and it works flawlessly. We're testing with multiple Blades right now.

nice, ... let us know .. when it worked out well ...

I have no clue what cgminer I have running on my pi. It was posted by somebody in the forum.

This version is what has worked best for me. Shows the most shares at the pool and does not taper off.

Anybody found a way to get the blades to work with the 5 chip miners? Would like to have all of them on one computer.

Have a blade, have already compiled software and been messing around. Had no idea it didn't work with blades, but it definitely sees them

I would be more than willing to work with you and get this ironed out. CGMiner is terrible for me (on the blades) and BFGMiner is alright, but slows down.

What binaries is everyone else using for the raspberry and Gridseed products?

I have dropped cgminer, tried all possible forks on 2 raspi's with 10 and 20 gridseeds connected.
Lots of HW error's and they all seem to crash after a while.

On my setup, bfgminer runs most stable (https://github.com/luke-jr/bfgminer/tree/gridseed)
It also has a higher hashrate reported on the pool compared to cgminer, especially on p2pools.
Don't know if it supports blades yet.

The new cpuminer fork from sandor111 also looks very promising. It runs stable on raspi and has this auto tune function.
Some pools don't work yet, but there should be a fix for this very soon.

https://github.com/siklon/usb-miner/tree/master/software/cpuminer

Fixed issue with 100% reject on some pools. Wink

Can you provide a binary for the rasp ..... for it? Does it work with g-blades?

Latest binary for Rpi (LA-v3g)
https://www.dropbox.com/s/dzl44hj2kiiwa0f/minerd-sandor111

How to compile on Rpi:

Code:

apt-get update
apt-get install -y build-essential libtool libcurl4-openssl-dev libncurses5-dev libudev-dev autoconf automake screen
git clone https://github.com/siklon/usb-miner.git
cd usb-miner/software/cpuminer
./autogen.sh
./configure CFLAGS="-O3"
make

It doesn't work yet with the Blades, but it's easy to add support for it, I just need someone with a Blade willing to help me test it.

You genius! It's working on p2pool now!
Just compiled it and running a few minutes, that's not long enough but at least it is accepting shares.
Thanks!

I don't understand anything about these windows instructions :

Basic Windows build instructions, using MinGW:
   Install MinGW and the MSYS Developer Tool Kit (http://www.mingw.org/)
      * Make sure you have mstcpip.h in MinGW\include
   If using MinGW-w64, install pthreads-w64
   Install libcurl devel (http://curl.haxx.se/download.html)
      * Make sure you have libcurl.m4 in MinGW\share\aclocal
      * Make sure you have curl-config in MinGW\bin
   In the MSYS shell, run:
      ./autogen.sh   # only needed if building from git repo
      LIBCURL="-lcurldll" ./configure CFLAGS="-O3"
      make

Isn't there an ready to go windows version like the normal Gridseed Cpuminer?

I am using the old 5 chip bfgminer 3.10.0 with 5 Gridseed blades. Connected directly into the computer (no raspberry pi) via hub.

...

I get a total hashrate of about 22-24 mh/s which is not very good as they were advertised as 5200 kh/s per unit.

...

with the cgminer I'm using I get 5.2mh at the pool with ... 800 freq.

... however hashrate is wrongly displayed on the cgminer rasp.
