I read the Readme and can't find the answers I'm looking for...

Can anyone help me figuring out what's wrong?

Hey man, you are trying to hash in a pool with Scrypt algo (Altcoins) while your hardware is able to hash only in SHA-256 algo! Change your pool to hash in SHA-256 (Bitcoin)

If you're still looking, I followed the guide here, in the 2nd or 3rd response, to get my U3/RPi setup working:

https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=103046&p=727350

maybe that will work for you? I set up an account with slush's pool, and use the info provided on the site to configure the pool and such.

I chose cgminer.

I'm a bit confused with the settings... Lips sealed

What is Append JSON conf (-c /var/www/minera/conf/miner_conf.json)?
How should I set the other on/off buttons? (Script, auto login, auto-debug...)

My miner seems to be recognized, but I can't get a hash rate

Have you read README?

Quote from: Starssadar on April 18, 2015, 04:57:05 PM

And what exactly are error/rejected rates? Huh

Quote from: DeathAndTaxes on December 29, 2011, 12:25:45 PM

They are either invalid (bad hash of good data) or stale (good hash of bad data)

When a block is found any share you are working on or submitting is no longer worth anything. They are stale. If you push GPU too hard it will make mathematical errors producing invalid hashes.

Sorry. My mistake. I messed up my mind.

Which miner did you choose? CGMiner or BFGMiner?

Isn't Zadig a windows software?

I chose a pool, username and password, but it's like my U3 won't start. It is listed, but it won't work.

What can I do?

Use CGMiner in Minera. If it isn't there by default, download it and also download Zadig^[1] and install both. After installing, you only have to choose pool, username and password. You will ne able to run it.

P.S. Read README^[2] and use default url to access settings. It is good to change default password.

Ok I installed the latest Minera version, accessed it from my computer. It's very nice btw.

How do I make my U3 to start mining? Just plugging it ? No need to configure it, no need for drivers?

I'm very new new to all this and I must admit I'm a bit confused.

Thanks for the quick answer.

I'll look into it. Is it comptaible with the Antminer U3?

Use Minera. It is easy to setup and good for Raspberry Pi.

Hi

I'm an absolute beginner with mining and Bitcoins.
I had a Raspberry Pi lying around and thought I could use it to mine, so I bought an Antminer U3, and now I'm clueless on how to use the damn thing. Roll Eyes

I made all updates on my RaspPi but I dont know which version of cgminer to use, how to install it or how to configure my Antminer.

Anyone know a good tutorial? Anyone can help me? I feel quite lost. Undecided
