New release: 3.3.2, 10th August 2013
Cairnsmore1 (yeah. I know...):
I have hold off to upgrade to 3.x from 2.11.3, but today the temptation was too big ;-)
Upgrading etc. all went fine on Ubuntu 12.04.2, worked through the READMEs, did the libusb-1.0.16-rc10, disconnect USB, removed all --scan serial (ttyUSB*) from config file, restart everything, reconnect USB, did NOT issue the modprobe command...
Out of the 6x CM1s, cgminer only detects CMR0, 1 and 2. I let them run for a while with no problems, but of course I'm missing the rest of the boards.
Anyone tried the latest version with CM1s? Any other pointers?
I've tried, bo no luck
On my rig i'm using cgminer for icarus, lancelot, AMU, and bfg for CM1.
I still have no CM1 ... get me one and I'll spend the effort to write a new driver to fully support it ... it requires a unique driver different to any other due to the chip it uses and how it uses it.
I personally support BitBurner, Lancelot (BlackArrow + Standard), Icarus, AsicminerUSB, BFL FPGA, BFL ASIC and ModMinerQuad coz I have them all, so I can support them.
Simple relevant example: the changes I made the other day, to the Avalon code, for my new BitBurner board meant that no Avalon would work any more.
Fortunately, ckolivas paid a ridiculous price necessary to get an Avalon a while back, and tested the change on Avalon and found the problem - that I then fixed.
The Icarus driver should find one FPGA or FPGA pair and mine on it - but I've no idea for sure coz I don't have one.
If some change either of us makes has any effect on that, well ... good to know, but no I don't have one so I can't test it.
I have no hardware incentive to do it, even though I wrote the first proper software support for the first CM1 (Yohan's team simply changed the baud rate in the Icarus driver and did nothing else)
Yes hearing the same old comments about the CM1 are ... the same old comments ... pointless, so do something about it.
Pretty soon it wont even be worth my while to have one ... so then there would be no possible incentive to work on the driver at all.
