well thats what i was thinking at first also
For that reason i made an account on a few pools but when i tried mining at these known pools
Guess what no messages at all just poof application stopped working
The program simply stops working instant it not even write a log file
But again the miners work fine on btc alike pools just when i try mining scrypt pools it gets killed

Maybe you need to add more system memory as scrypt uses a lot.

tssk i wanted to change to mining onto litecoin or similar coins
however cgminer and bfgminer simply crash again

i used as command bfgminer --scrypt -I13 and this error shows when start the 32 bit version

when using the 64 bit one nothing happens just see apllication stopped working in windows

I have had this same error after appr. 12h of mining.

CCNA: There i fixed the internet.
@bronan: i would check your solo mining server's config. the last line:
[2013-07-17 23:51:38] No suitable long-poll found for http://192.168.178.11:13809

leads me to believe your server may be misconfigured since it cant find an LP

Ofcourse i am solo mining which is not really uncommon you can see in the errors that it shows switching difficulty based on the network
but it does not matter if i put in a pool or my local server .... both crash the most annoying is that either bfgminer or cgminer runs
when i remove the scrypt and start mining on btc they both run fine
switch over to scrypt ...... pooof and disappear from the screen

i tried using abolute minimal parameters like --scrypt -I(2 up to 18)
or made the full command with each and every needed parameter for 7970 cards
at the moment i just want to use 2 of the 4 cards for mining because we have finally got some hot summer weather in the netherlands, but even if i select only one of the four it simply crash
no messages not any usefull hint just bfgminer/cgminer has stop working and thats it
i have no clue why this happens since it has worked in the paste very well with the same batch and also on scrypt i even have solo mined ltc for several months
Had found something which i thaught would help by adding that mining address in the config or adding a pool for confirmation but nope nothing works

You are mining for a server located on your local network?  192.168.xxx.xxx isn't a valid external internet address.

hi i would appreciate your help. i'm running bfgminer on a Pi. i have 3 icarus boards, 1 cm1 and 1 bfl single fpga
i did the following (made it a script so as to build it every so often):
Code:
#!/bin/bash
git clone https://github.com/luke-jr/bfgminer.git
cd bfgminer
./autogen.sh
./configure
make

no errors on build

also on boot:

Code:
modprobe ftdi_sio vendor=0x0403 product=0x8350
sleep 1
echo "0403 8350" > /sys/bus/usb-serial/drivers/ftdi_sio/new_id
sleep 1
#BFL
modprobe ftdi_sio vendor=0x0403 product=0x6014
#Lancelot
modprobe ftdi_sio vendor=0x0403 product=0x6001
#Cairnsmore1
modprobe ftdi_sio product=0x8350 vendor=0x0403

i run it with either
bfgminer -c ../miner.txt -S all
or
bfgminer -c ../miner.txt -S /dev/ttyUSB0 -S /dev/ttyUSB1 -S /dev/ttyUSB2 -S /dev/ttyUSB3 -S /dev/ttyUSB4 -S /dev/ttyUSB5 -S /dev/ttyUSB6 -S /dev/ttyUSB7

and the bfl is not detected or bfgminer stays in a blank screen.

even though all 0 to 7 ttyUSB exist

any ideas?

edit:
if i use bfgminer -c ../miner.txt  it starts ok but no ICA start.

by the way i've mined with them before but not all together.

Well, I just heard about this miner the other day. I jsut installed it on my Mint laptop just to fool around and become familiar with the program.

Im not sure what its doing but its doing something. Cool.

Ive only had experience with cpuminer (minerd) which is really straightforward on Linux. Point, Aim, Shoot.

This seems really involved. But it seems like a ton of work went into this so as soon as I get my next payments on BTC Jam I will shoot a donation @ luke-jr

But my miner is going at most 64 Mh per second and fell to 27 Mh. I have it on "d" for intensity.

And I have no idea if I am using my GPU in my computer or it is my usb miner.
Sounds like GPU.

The program didn't see it until I changed to WinUSB driver.
You just broke your driver. WinUSB is the wrong one for Erupters.
It won't work until you figure out how to undo that and get the right driver.

hey I just got one of the blade erupter little asic usb miners.
it is my first miner. I got bfgminer to work and got into the deepbit pool.  

But my miner is going at most 64 Mh per second and fell to 27 Mh. I have it on "d" for intensity.

And I have no idea if I am using my GPU in my computer or it is my usb miner.

The program didn't see it until I changed to WinUSB driver.

Any thoughts appreciated

I cant figure out how to upload a pic, otherwise I would put p the screen shot of my miner

Thanks Huh

***UPDATE****

First of all, thanks so much for the advice and link to the UART page. It is the help and support on this forum that really makes this tech and currency exciting and able to thrive.  But I started with the UART driver and read that the cgminer couldnt use the driver to mine, that only the winusb driver could mine. But, conversely, once I installed it, Everytime I would log into deepbit, cgminer immediately fatal errors. So I got it working with BFMiner with the crappy WinUSB driver.  So now, I downloaded the newer UART driver from the linked page, and the mining programs dont see the device.

Any help from you guys with an Asic on usb on windows xp would be much appreciated.  I'll say it right now: I already intend to buy a raspberry pi on friday for a dedicated linux asic mining rig. But I would like to see proof of concept on my xp machine because I bought the hardware from ebay and want to make sure it actually will go 333 Mh.

To make sure the thread is seen, I will post again at the end of the queue. Thanks.

Hey, I'm running 13.4 drivers on Ubuntu 13.04 amd64, I had the problem with the BFI_INT as LukeJr described, with CGMiner, it was fixed with BFGMiner with SHA-256, but I still have errors mining scrypt hashes. What could I do?. Thanks. Right now I have to decrease intensity a lot to make it work, it gives me half the windows hashrate.

Okay, this just seems totally weird to me. I'm screwing around with different miners on my AMD A10-4600m APU. I started using Poclbm and BFGMiner. Poclbm got me about 3 MH/s utilizing 100% APU power, which seemed normal to me. Now with BFGMiner, I get approx. 100 MH/s and only using 5% of my APU. This is totally mindfucking me, please explain? Haha, and I can tell this is true by looking at my mining pool account status, which I'm acutally giving shares too a lot faster than Poclbm. Is my APU really supposed to be this fast at 100%? My CPU monitor might just be screwing with me about the percentage.

**Edit: Well, the hashrate is slowly lowering,  but is still a lot faster than GUIMiner and looking at Task Manager, it's almost like BFGMiner isn't running.

http://gyazo.com/18ac57cb1322a4e05b97e2e9ed1a41d5

Poclbm was using the CPU cores and Bfgminer is using OpenCL and the GPU stream processors on the chip. Bfgminer doesn't have native CPU support on windows anymore.

Totally forgot the fact that APUs have Northern Light GPU cores. Used to working with a standard CPU, I feel pretty stupid now haha, but thanks!
