Ok, I am just lost! I have no idea why 5.0 will not work for my asicminer tubes! The previous versions (4.1) have all worked but not 5.0!
I have them connected via usb to the rpi. But no matter what it still says no devices found.
I have both the superuser option and the detect all options enabled
I have tried CGminer after compiling it with the --enable-blockerupter (which has worked with previous versions) but not working with 5.0
I have NEVER been able to get bfgminer to work on minera. It never finds the devices either
I have tried a fresh install of 5.0 and then compiled it twice. Still no devices found.
Is there something I am not doing? Do I need to do anything so it will read the usb? Do I need to put in certain settings I did not need to before (extra options) or to get bfgminer working.
Any help would be appreciated Im pulling my hair out trying to get this figured out!
Well, you should firstly try to remove the autodetect option (this should enable libusb detection). Then please can you tell me the exact hardware you are using? Can you find and paste a link to it? Because I'm not sure what you are trying to connect and I need more info about the HW before tell you something more.
EDIT: while I don't think it's a cgminer version problem this is the previous binary there was in Minera, you could try with this too (add it as custom miner or overwrite it as default one)
https://github.com/michelem09/minera/blob/fa17a35255bdd7ba48569d0507dc0e9e4f788ecd/minera-bin/cgminer?raw=trueI tried disabling the autodetect option and that still didnt work.
I am not sure how to add the old binary for cg miner in to Minera (I wish I knew more about Linux). Can you explain how to do that?
I am running 2 Asicminer Tubes that are chained together and connected to the rpi using a usb/uart adapter (
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/guide-dogies-comprehensive-asicminer-tube-setup-hd-769570). I am using a rpi B (not sure if that matters) They worked with the previous version of Minera but cant be found with 5. I have never been able to get them to work with bfgminer, even though they are supposed to be compatible with it
Any help would be appreciated.
So, it's sure you need to re-build cgminer in 0.5.0 because --enable-blockerupter option isn't in the default build (it prevents others to be compiled).
Then did you do a "sudo make install" too after the "make" command? Try and reboot the Raspberry after that.
Yes I did the sudo make install, and then restarted the rpi. Here is the code that I used, do I need to do something else besides this.
cd /tmp
git clone https://github.com/ckolivas/cgminer
cd cgminer
./autogen.sh
./configure --enable-blockerupter
make
sudo make install
cp cgminer /var/www/minera/minera-bin/
maybe add this sudo ./configure CFLAGS="-O2" or ./configure CFLAGS="-O3" --enable-blockerupter
Like this
cd cgminer
./autogen.sh
sudo ./configure CFLAGS="-O2" --enable-blockerupter
or try
sudo ./configure CFLAGS="-O3" --enable-blockerupter
not really sure what 02 or 03 do other then make the Drivers work with most USB hubs.
not sure if there script only commands either sense i only script mine with minera.
my S5 have there own UI etc and controller, I cant find a better miner for bitcoins at there price right now and you can make them run a lot quieter and use less power then any thing, i see on the market atm .
and use this to make sure CGminer is complied right
http://winscp.net/eng/index.php?#utm_source=winscp&utm_medium=app&utm_campaign=5.7.3 by logging into your IP for minera and look under this path /var/www/minera/minera-bin make sure CGMiner has this line in the line for octal 0755 by right clicking it then look at Properties . Use this to find the IP address of minera if you don't know it .
I have yet to see one program of this type that is totally free, work so well or better then most paid for programs that do the same thing.
http://www.advanced-ip-scanner.com/Sorry of i don't know the command line to check it or add it .I have seen CG miner work but no hard ware til one or both lines are added . make sure there is only one space between each command if it needs a space.
