I thought your blog article said to use the --HEAD when installing because it does provide support? Did I misread that?

The article is for DualMiner devices, not 5-chip GridSeed devices.

Hi all. Just got my Gridseed 5-chip "orbit" in the mail. Attempting to use it with Mac OS X. I've followed nwoolls's blog article and even loaded the FTDI kext driver. No matter what, the Gridseed keeps showing up as:

Code:
[2014-03-31 10:29:02] lowlevel_scan: Found vcom device at dev_t:0d000012 (path=/dev/cu.usbmodemfa14141, vid=0000, pid=0000, manuf=(null), prod=(null), serial=(null))

Can I still mine? How do I tell bfgminer to use this device?

GridSeed devices are not supported in BFGMiner yet, which is why it is not able to detect them. Support will be in 4.0, due out soon.

Gave up on trying with Mac OS X. Used this guide and got it running on raspberryPi.

Can I please get some assistance with using minepeon to proxy an antminer S1? The ui on the Antminer isn't the easiest way to switch pools and I'd like to switch all hardware at one control point.

You'll probably get better answers over on the Minepeon thread: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/linux-mining-distro-for-the-raspberry-pi-minepeon-137934

Hey guy i got this working just fine with Antminers and k16;s was hoping some one could tell me if this is the correct way to over clock the k16.
bfgminer -S antminer:all --set-device antminer:clock=x0981 klondike-options":"355:60 -o stratum+tcp://mint.bitminter.com:3333 -u cronos_1 -p 1
Anyone??

Tank you, that post got the miners recognized and BFGMiner is up and running. now ill have to wait till a fix for high hw errors.

There is no fix for high HW errors. Look at the %, not the #. Should be under 1% unless you are overclocking.
