I cannot find the link for the COM port drivers. Can somebody post it please? Gotta head to a client dinner. Thanks.

Did that. Then 2 or 3 will start. I had 5 going first as a test before I got the other 14 wired up. Maybe there is an issue trying to do so many in cgminer.
i had 10 wired up and it starts right up... hows your hub being powered? also hows your raspi being powered? usually when it detects and it doesn't is a clear indication of underpowered ports...
Hubs are powered by adapters. I have a Anker 9 port and 12 port that came with the accessory pack. I am using Win 7 x64.

I can get into cgminer, but I keep getting this.
close cgminer... unplug your usb... plug it back in and count to 5... launch cgminer.

Using Com1 seems to let cpuminer detect the gridseed however when running, it is not solving any shares , see my screen grab below
March 06, 2014, 04:27:27 PM
OK are are pictures of before in device manager and after in device manager when Zadig program is run and WINUSB is applied. Note that after STM32 is still in device manage but now listed under USB devices instead of com ports and it no longer has a com port assigned to it.
I i could figure out a way to assign a com port maybe I might be all set

Best performance cpuminer fixed.
you should work on firmware !!!!!!!
Nice rig!
"Best performance cpuminer fixed" What was fixed exactly?
Can you be a bit more specific and clear on what you're talking about?
Clue us all in?...
Tanks!

I think that was done by hand not by script...
http://www.gnu.org/software/screen/manual/screen.html
or an easier guide: http://tomlee.co/2011/10/gnu-screen-splitting/
thank youuu
i can study
Oddly enough I can make that setup happen via script:
pool0.sh - pool9.sh
Code:
POOL="-o stratum+tcp://us.clevermining.com:3333 -u 13zKJjzxGpjbqJDAWAhFNHVqALqcsCWiat -p x"
FREQ="800"
cd /home/miner/cpuminer/
./minerd -F $FREQ -G /dev/ttyACM9 $POOL
aio_screen
Code:
screen -t miner0 /home/miner/pool0.sh
split
split -v
focus down
screen -t miner1 /home/miner/pool1.sh
focus down
screen -t miner2 /home/miner/pool2.sh
split
split -v
focus down
screen -t miner3 /home/miner/pool3.sh
focus down
screen -t miner4 /home/miner/pool4.sh
split
split -v
focus down
screen -t miner5 /home/miner/pool5.sh
focus down
screen -t miner6 /home/miner/pool6.sh
split
split -v
focus down
screen -t miner7 /home/miner/pool7.sh
focus down
screen -t miner8 /home/miner/pool8.sh
split -v
focus down
screen -t miner9 /home/miner/pool9.sh
Then as root run
Code:
screen -c /home/miner/aio_screen
Should output 10 consoles like this: I only ran one actual unit in the window as a test.

The only issue I had was that upon detaching and reattaching to the screen session or starting detached all of the windows reset to windows with no positioning
Thank uuuu
very helpful

miner0~9.sh
Code:
mkdir -p home/cpuminer/miner_conf;for i in {9..0};do echo -en "POOL=\"-o stratum+tcp://pool -u worker -p x -q\"\nFREQ=\"850\"\ncd home/cpuminer\n./minerd -F \$FREQ -G /dev/ttyACM$i \$POOL" > home/cpuminer/miner_conf/miner$i.sh;done
change permission for miner0~9.sh
Code:
chmod -R 755 home/cpuminer/miner_conf

Code:
screen -t m0 ./home/cpuminer/miner_conf/miner0.sh

split

screen -t m8 ./home/cpuminer/miner_conf/miner8.sh
split
focus down
screen -t m9 ./home/cpuminer/miner_conf/miner9.sh
then as user run
Code:

good working!!

How did you get Cgminer to work in windows I am still trying to figure it out? Thanks in advance
Also zoomhash.com now has the gridseed miners at 234.99 a piece right now if anyone needs any in the US. I have dealt with them and can vouch for them.

finally got 10 gridseeds working on cgminer.!!!! 
On windows? How?

On Raspberry Pi: you gotta add --scrypt at the end
Code:
git clone https://github.com/dtbartle/cgminer-gc3355.git
cd cgminer-gc3355
./configure CFLAGS="-O3" --enable-scrypt --enable-gridseed
make
./cgminer --gridseed-options=baud=115200,freq=900,chips=5,modules=1,usefifo=0,btc=16 --hotplug=0 -o stratum+tcp://usa-1.liteguardian.com:3335 -u user -p x --scrypt

I can only get 2 to run on windows 8.1. (in CGminer)
Anyone having more success with this? Help is appreciated.

This driver is for people trying to install the gridseed under windows 8.1 it is a link to the ST comm drivers. This is for Win 8.1 64 bit

This will work for CGminer? I have gotten it to work for the cpuminer just not cgminer.
I dont see the cp2102 to uart bridge controller only stcomm32
Try cpuminer, much easier to work with....MUCH!

Good luck!
Wolfey2014
Oh cgminer I cant even get cgminer to work. If you could help me there I would appreciate it. I have the ST32 also and not the CP2102. My miner never finds the gridseed.

I can get it to find 2. At one point i had it find 10 aka one full hub and start hashing. I had 20 connected tho. Since then no luck.
With 2 all i have to do is unplug them and replug then restart cgminer. I have gotten 3 running by starting 2 instances of cgminer. but now when i do that it just says devices in use.
