When you build the github source, and do the .configure line, you should get final output that looks something like this:

Enabled..Drivers.....: antminer avalon bifury bigpic bitforce bitforce:uio bitfury_gpio cairnsmore drillbit erupter hashbusterusb hashfast icarus klondike littlefury modminer proxy proxy:stratum twinfury x6500 ztex

Note the antminer at the front of that list.  Your list may vary of course, depending on what options you passed configure.

Like I said I followed those Install Docs.. Installing again now.. Lets see if this changes..

EDIT: Still no go..

Is driver-antminer.c in your compiled version?

How do I check?

It should be in the folder into which you extracted BFG.

This was working on my PC, but wanted to migrate it to a dedicated PI instead of being in my office...


Did you install all the necessary libraries?

Query: are your USB hubs 2.0 or 3.0? 3.0 USB hubs have some problems on the Pi's.

What happens when you type in:
Code:
bfgminer -S all -d?

14 Antminer U1's on Raspberry Pi arent being detected with BFGMINER Sad Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have 14 AM U1's connected with 2 powered usb hubs, connected to the 2 R Pi's 2 usb ports (Not piggy backing). When I run BGMiner it says there are no connected devices. Maybe someone could give me the exact code to run? I am currently running this:

sudo ./bfgminer -S antminer:all -o stratum+tcp://east-us.megamultipool.com:5000 -u suprastan.1 -p password

When I try to run this:

sudo ./bfgminer -S antminer:all -o stratum+tcp://east-us.megamultipool.com:5000 -u suprastan.1 -p password –-set-device antminer:clock=x0781

I get:

Unexpected extra commandline arguments


I followed this guide: http://ubuntuhak.blogspot.com/2014/01/raspberry-pi-as-controller-for-bitcoin.html

The only thing I changed was downloading the latest version of BFG 3.10.0

Hi guys i had two miners that now i use with cgminer, but i want do the same thing with bfgminer.
The miners are 1 Technobit Hex16A2 and 1 BitBurner 52GH/s
How i can find the drivers to use them in BFGminer?
TechnoBit HEX16A2: For some reason, these are incompatible with Linux's USB CDC/ACM drivers, so I have been unable to complete a driver for them; while I've tried to get Linux developers involved to fix it, they just don't seem interested. In lieu of that, I recently shipped the sample unit to nwoolls, who does his development on Mac/Windows, and will be sending him my notes and incomplete driver code so he can complete it.

BitBurner: No contact, docs, or samples from this vendor. Support is not planned at this time. Please contact the manufacturer and/or vendors to recommend they get in touch.

Shame.

The HEX16A2 is a good little board, and seem very popular.  I've got 5 of them now, running off TechnoBit's OpenWRT firmware for the TL3020.  Oddly, they run better at a lower clock rate/voltage. I'm getting 20GH solid from them at 1300MHz/1030mV compared to 18-21GH at 1500MHz/1100mV.  The 5 of them are using 300W LESS at basically the same hashrate by taking the voltage and frequency down.  Also I can run the fans at 5V instead of OMG LOUD 12v.

The BitBurner Fury is a nice board, too.  I've had a solid 50GH out of mine, running off a self-compiled cgminer running off a BeagleBone Black.  Only cooled by an 80mm Arctic M8 fan (the really cheap one).    It seems to be Avalon protocol, but of course doesn't act like a proper Avalon...  Roll Eyes

Shame the devs are so unforthcoming with helping to get BFG support.  Hopefully nwoolls can sort out drivers for the HEX16A2.

Better to have 100 friends than 100 rubles
Trying out --quiet --syslog --text-only as above and seeing a LOT of these in the log:

Feb 21 07:29:16 miner2 bfgminer[23705]: Testing pool stratum+tcp://yacc.westlist.com:3777
Feb 21 07:29:16 miner2 bfgminer[23705]: HTTP request failed: Protocol stratum+tcp not supported or disabled in libcurl

The pools I connect to are all reporting my miners present and accepting work, so I'm confused.

Any suggested or required parameters for running bfgminer in the background, launched by the system startup scripts?

Normally I run with the ncurses library and monitor temps and whatnot, but if my monitoring PC dies, so do the windows.  When I travel, I'd like to go ahead and launch in backgroups, to break that dependancy.  Just launching with & seems to work, sometimes, but often my pools report one or more of the machines missing.

I was thinking of "--text-only --quiet --syslog" and maybe even "--cmd-sick /sbin/reboot --cmd-dead /sbin/reboot"

Thoughts?

If you've already got the replacement, then why is it a concern if the 'faulty' one is working for the seller?  He can stick it up his ass for all it matters. Smiley

although that erupter will run without a fan (hot as hell) you should put a fan on it(them)

Thanks OleOle.

I would of loved to video me hammering the cr@p out of the troublesome erupter as it cause me quite a bit of grief Smiley But then I would of been out A$40 and no erupter. So commonsense prevailed and the hope the seller would be honourable enough to either refund or supply another (non-overclocked) erupter. So after spending A$12 in registered post (so the seller would have to sign for it and not claim he never received it in the post), I received a replacement (which as we know works like a charm).

However, the seller had the nerve to tell me this (in green below):


Glad it's working out for you Mark.

Now, if you've still got that "overclocked" Erupter, grab your favourite hammer, your camera and let's see a quick vid of its destruction Cheesy

Alas, I'm thinking you've returned it as requested by the seller so he can try to scam someone else to facilitate the refund Wink

Hopefully you find the Antminer as easy with BFG when it arrives.
