Recently installed asuswrt-merlin on my RT-N16 and installed Entware and installed BFGminer pretty easy, problem is when I run the args It just blanks out putty and does nothing. Am I missing a step?

Where can i find bfgminer compilled w/ CPU mining support?
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.2015664
Wait, are you saying I have to be running Gentoo to have cpu mining run by default with bfgminer?
I thought I just used "--enable-cpumining"? Even without it, my miner fires up and mines TRC no problem. (I have other problems withother pools and other alt coins but thats bc of the learning curve for a n00b like me)

It's a fork of cgminer, isn't it?
It began as a fork of cgminer (a CPU/GPU miner), but not to be confused with the current cgminer, which has become a fork of BFGMiner for trolling reasons.For "trolling reasons"? It couldve just been for teh lulz. It is always so difficult to distinguish

lol so was i .. when i was adding mine i saw the total hash rate going up but not all the miners, but thankful Luke_Jr told me about the up/down keys.
August 03, 2013, 06:56:08 PM
Since you have a Mini Rig SC, I was wondering if it has a built in router/Linux like Avalon or you connect the 8 long boards to an internal USB hub and then connect that hub to a PC?
It has a Nexus7 builtin, but you can plug the USB into a Windows system just fine.Can one PC handle three mini rigs?
If it's powerful enough (which really isn't that much).

ya i had the same problem when i was only mining with 4, till i added the other 28, seems you can use the arrow keys up and down to scroll the miners list, also the important info stays up top hash rate/error rate /%/etc..
Hope this helps..

WAIT!!! You mean you hit the UP DOWN keys and you go...Hope this helps..

UP OR DOWN!!!
I'm an idiot today....

Probably really dumb question here. I'm running 94 Erupters/bfgminer 3.1.4/acer aspire netbook/ubunto 12.04.
How to list all the miners and their production? the list truncates at screen length....
...so no way to know if some do not work or have errors...

-G -S all --icarus-options 115200:1:1 --icarus-timing 3.0=100
You get some more functionality by using -G -S erupter:allu mean this cmd line or: -G -S erupter:all --icarus-options 115200:1:1 --icarus-timing 3.0=100
or only -G -S erupter:all
what is correct now ?
"-G -S erupter:all" works just fine.
August 03, 2013, 09:55:19 AM
-G -S erupter:all
btw Luke there is nothing about -G in readme
it says only

Thought i would throw my 2 cents in here, just upgraded to 3.1.4 and running 32 usb miners and everything running fine, except the last miner is showing up twice ICA31 2x, and seems to be mining, so did i just get my 33th usb miner 4free? 
Maybe! I don't know what would cause this kind of thing :/-G -S all --icarus-options 115200:1:1 --icarus-timing 3.0=100
You get some more functionality by using -G -S erupter:allWell i tried that, screen looks bit different, but still got now 2 BES31's a going
any idea what that extra command did? think i would get any higher hash rate? BTW love this program.. Keep up the good work.running

PS
I have already tried restarting the miner 3 or 4 times still getting that 33th miner in there somehow use the same .bat file i been using since 3.1.1
here is what i have in the bat file sides the login/pool info:
-G -S all --icarus-options 115200:1:1 --icarus-timing 3.0=100

MMQ clock speed changes don't actually take effect. It appears they do, but revert to bfgminer-chosen clocks immediately after exiting Manage menu.
Combined clockrate at 900mhz, actual hashrate 676. not helpful.

NEW VERSION 3.1.4, AUGUST 2 2013
...
...
- Reorganised TUI display, adding network transfer rate, and totals summary line including count of total devices/processors hashing as well as hottest temperature across all sensors.
I like the new TUI
So far 3.1.4 works fine from last night on 3 systems. I'll let you know if I see any issue.
August 02, 2013, 07:36:46 AM
Finally captured the error message i'm getting with 3.1.3 and two jalapenos...
BFL0: idle for more than 60 seconds, declaring sick!
BFL0: attempting to restart
BFL0: re-initialising
and that's when bfg stops working and throws up the "search for a solution" or "close the application" dialog.

NEW VERSION 3.1.4, AUGUST 2 2013
Human readable changelog:
Full changelog
Human readable changelog:
- Enable triggering "identify" (flash LED) function from Manage device TUI for devices that support it.
- modminer & x6500: Enable changing clock frequency from Manage devices TUI interface.
- Mac/BSD: Fix new IO speed support detection, so Icarus-compatible devices work by default.
- Device ailments (SICK, ERR, etc) are now displayed in red/pink.
- erupter: Add support for "identify" (flash LED) function. After some delay (up to 13 seconds), the LED will light for 3 seconds (hashing stops during this time). Thanks to Rotorgeek and Canary for helping test!
- bitforce: Display voltages in Manage device TUI.
- Reorganised TUI display, adding network transfer rate, and totals summary line including count of total devices/processors hashing as well as hottest temperature across all sensors.
- Improved timer functionality under the hood, taking advantage of QueryPerformanceCounter on Windows and clock_gettime on *nix. This should fix issues (eg, erupters reporting insane hashrates) related to system clock changes (such as NTP drift adjustment).
- Removed blank/wasted lines above/below log window in TUI mode.
- bitforce: Clear queues at startup to avoid spurious warnings.
- Stratum: Add support for rolling ntime header.

- Windows: Rebuild pdcurses with UTF-8 and wide character support

- Bugfix: Fix Enter key in TUI on Windows
- erupter: Split identify-handling logic into handle_identify function

- sysfs autodetect: Split tty* directory search into new _sysfs_find_tty function
- modminer: Reduce default clock to 190 MHz
- README: Update driver info to include Erupter driver
- README: FAQ about scrypt and difficulty
- Include count of working devices/processors in totals statline
- Format totals statline the same way as individual device/processor statlines
- Rearrange TUI a bit, including menu at the top (+1 log line) and hashrate total closer to device summaries

- Split total_bytes_xfer to total_bytes_rcvd and total_bytes_sent

- Bugfix: Never use waddstr for logwin, since it would bypass special newline handling
- Bugfix: bitforce: Set kname on chip processors
- bitforce: Include voltages in Manage device TUI
- Defer newlines going to curses logwin, to avoid a useless blank line at the bottom of the window
- Ensure printing to logwin always goes through _wlog
- Remove blank line above log window
- bitforce: Identify parallel queue protocol distinctly from mere bulk queue
- ManageTUI: Include kernel name, when available
- Stratum: Roll ntime as we generate work
- Stratum: Make swork.ntime native-endian

- Bugfix: Actually show the highest temperature, not just calculate it
- x6500: Allow changing clock speed from TUI Manage device

Hello!
Just letting you all know that I had been trying to get bfgminer 3.1.3 to work on an old Mac, to use some block erupters.
It has 10.5, and I have been having problems with homebrew on 10.5, so I downloaded and compiled all the libraries individually.
I managed to successfully compile it after a few strategic edits, but every time I tried to use it with my block erupters, it would fail on the scan, complaining about an "Unsupported baud rate".
I knew that my erupters and hub work fine because the bitminter client works fine for me.
On a whim, I decided to try compiling earlier versions, and it turns out Version 3.1.2 works fine for me. So I am good now, but I figured I should let you all know....
