Will the quantal version run on raring, or do I need to wait for a release for 13.04?
You'll have to build from source for now.

Its not installed so that is probably why!  I will update once I can see it in device manager.

Has anyone been able to run bfgminer on a Windows XP 32bit OS?  Will it run?
when I run bfgminer with no switches I get:

"All devices disabled. cannot mine!"

Would this mean that the ASIC USB driver is not installed?

Thanks,
Probably, does Device Manager show it installed?

THX ! nice
i can finally go back to bfgminer Wink hope no more errors

edit after 8h: and it crashed on gpu instance.
fpga still works but i could read something happened with pools then bfgminer with gpu crashed
Code:
[2013-04-28 22:31:23] Stratum connection to pool 3 interrupted
 [2013-04-28 22:31:23] Stratum connect succeeded, but technical problem extracti
ng socket (pool 3)
 [2013-04-28 22:31:24] Stratum from pool 2 requested work update
edit few mins later
fpga are now down too ://

NEW VERSION 3.0.2, APRIL 28 2013

Human readable changelog:
  • Fix stratum on Windows.

Full changelog
  • Receive failures in recv_line should unconditionally fail.
  • Use sock_blocks function for stratum send and receive.
  • Avoid applog under stratum_lock in __stratum_send.
  • Create an OS specific sock_blocks function.
  • There should be no error response code with return value 0 in recv_line.
  • Check for errors on stratum recv for any recv return value less than 1 and only parse the response if it's positive.
  • Avoid applog under stratum_lock in recv_line.

I'm curious, why have you decided not to include the FPGA bitstreams in the windows binaries anymore?
Makes the download much larger, mainly, and most miners don't need them.
Seemed reasonable to have the few who do continue using the bitstreams they already have, or download them as the separate ZIP.

I compiled bfgminer 3.0.1 for Ubuntu and when I start it I get the command line version not the display version.  Any help would be great. 
See dependencies at the top of README. Especially the part about ncurses.

There's a GUI version of BFGMiner?
No, I don't think so. It's only ever been running in a terminal window.

I compiled bfgminer 3.0.1 for Ubuntu and when I start it I get the command line version not the display version.  Any help would be great. 

To my knowledge, there is only one version that looks like this in a terminal window, there is no GUI version.
Sample output:

An update to my earlier message: Bitminter just went offline and all 3 instances of bfgminer 3.0.1 crashed (simultaneously on 3 separate PCs). Win7/64. Same behavior as with the 2.99.x branch.

Should we expect high share failure rates when compiling with "-Ofast" or "-O3"?

Can I not mine with an Intel Integrated Graphics Controller? thanks

Anyone have any tips on restoring original clock, mem and voltage values on quitting? Currently bfg sets my custom gpu-engine, gpu-memclock and gpu-vddc values successfully, but they stay that way after I hit Q and exit. I was hoping as some point Trixx would start gathering dust.

Luke, I reported simultaneous crashes on two machines when my network connection to Slush's pool was lost.  I had not configured a pool rollover, so I'm not certain that a pool-switch was involved but it seems likely that one was attempted.

To answer your underlying question: yes, both machines were AMD 7770 GPUs running under OpenCL.
Luke, just to add to this: I have experienced simultaneous crashes on 3 machines when bitminter hiccups. I have FPGAs only, no GPUs. This was on versions prior to 3.0.1. Win7/64.

I have been running 3.0.1 on 3 instances for 17 hours now without issue ... but bitminter hasn't hiccuped yet. When it does, I'll see if my 3.0.1 instances crash.
