This might also help. It's a github for a branch of cgminer that has some code for using the epiphany chips. Don't have my parallella up and running just yet (waiting on a cable in the mail) so I haven't tried it, but last I saw it was not running great. I could be wrong, as I am pretty novice in coding and such and I had no idea what I was reading, but I did find the link.

Thanks for your input.  I heard that it was possible so that is why I asked.

I would love to be proven wrong though!

Dude, the paralella is built out of small tiny microprocessors, if you manage to get them to do mining operations, they will be most suitable for X11 and X13 coins. You can forget about scrypt, since they will never generate as much power as an FPGA would

Hi,

I'm looking to mine a scrypt coin using Ubuntu and CGMiner on a Parallella cluster.  I am due to recieve one after 5/8/14 once the pre-order builds are complete.  So perhaps soon after that.  Grin 

I wanted to test out the cluster computer to see if it could scrypt coin mine. 

Where can I get some help, with payment to get it up and running?

I've done very little mining, only SHA-256 type with Bitcoin and Terracoin.

Thanks,
Miner2049
