I did not know that.
I was thought it supported all of those as it uses the BFG?

Did you try MinePeon instead on the PI?
It seems to run much smoother and have far less problems.

I got some issues with mixed UE and NF setup... it works fine on windows 8.1 but can't get it to work on my RPI. I installed raspbian and installed hidapi (correctly) then used git clone to get bfgminer.
./autogen.sh
./configure --enable-icarus --enable-nanofury --enable-bitfury && make

but whenever I execute bfgminer, I get this error: mcp2210 lowlevel driver failed to open it
it connects just fine to my usb erupters after that, but it keeps spamming:
[2014-01-26 14:01:43] nanofury_lowl_probe: Matched "NanoFury NF1 YellowJacket" serial "0000099250", but mcp2210 lowlevel driver failed to open it

is this a driver issue? if so, is there a fix for this?

minepeon doesn't even support nanofury Wink

Hi, got a bit of a problem here.

I'm using my gpu to mine at an approx speed of ~190Mh/s, and apparently I can't seem to leave the cpu and go AFK. If so, bfgminer will run at an insanely low speed of 0.02Mh/s until I move the mouse or something (I didn't get this issue with GUIMiner, so I'm guessing it's something to do with the settings)

This typically happens when I'm watching a movie or youtube shows with the miner at the background, when I'm not touching the mouse/keyboard.

I did a brief search on Google but with no help, so I'm wondering if this is a setting I'll need to configure, or other reasons.

As I'm a newbie miner, I'm still using my pc to mine, so this issue is generally ok. But I can't get it to run overnight because of the slowing down.
Any help is appreciated!

Thanks in advance.

Even better.
MultiMiner is a complete GUI for BFGminer.
It works great and nwools who develops it works with Luke on BFG as well.

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/multiminer-any-miner-any-where-on-any-device-free-open-source-cross-platform-248173

It's great and easy to use.

Is there an easy way to present BFGminer in a tab on a windows browser, instead of a terminal on the desktop?

MutiMiner is good but I am looking for a tab on Chrome browser, instead of a terminal on the desktop.

If you have your miner in a tab on Chrome, it can be monitored from any other device logged into Chrome.

The same way that the latest Minepeon 0.2.5 pr1 shows on a tab.

Maybe this is too new.

Neil (mineforeman) may know the answer?

Apologies for what I am sure is a really daft question but I cannot find the answer anywhere.

I am currently using a single Antminer U1 with Bfgminer, no issues at all.

I am awaiting delivery of two more U1s, when they arrive do I need to setup a worker for each U1 or can they all "share" the same worker?

If i do need separate workers for each, what is the correct syntax for the bfg command line please?

If you plug in all three sticks wait for the driver to find them and restart BFG they should all show up.

If you want to run each in a separate session, plug in one stick, then start BFG.
plug in your next stick, then start another session of BFG. ........ etc.

Thanks very much for the reply, however, I am still not entirely clear - if they are all running in the same BFG session do they get sort of aggregated together and share the same worker/credentials or do I need to configure a pool worker for each AntMiner?

3 sticks in one session are aggregated together so you only need one worker. Also the vardif will raise the difficulty level and reduce the network traffic. You get 1 share at difficulty level 3.

If you run one in each session you will get 3 shares at difficulty level 1.

The end result is the same but the network traffic for difficulty level 3 would be 66% less (approximately).

Great, thanks very much for explaining.

Anyone here using RPi with Yellowjacket nanofury?

On bfgminer 3.10.0 (win7), Yellowjacket runs fine.

On RPi(Minepeon), I have compiled the 3.10.0, but it does not detect the 4 x Yellowjackets. cgminer detects and runs them, but I get failure after running for 30 minutes.

I am using a powered hub 5V 4A max output.

Are there additional switches or options that I need to include when compiling 3.10.0 in Arch Linux(I think Minepeon is running on top of Arch Linux)?

Would appreciate any help here.

Thanks.

try the latest minepeon dowload 0.2.5 pr1 (no compiling needed)

Hi all =)
I'm a pretty noob linux, so please be patient =)

I'm setting up a little rig with 1xR9 280X toxic, using ubuntu 13.10.
I'm using the AMD driver ("updates" version).
Two questions:
1) My first problem is the downvolting: I'm trying to use --gpu-vddc , but changing it the watt consume doesn't change.. (I'm using a watt-meter).
Do I need to unlock something in the driver?

2) If I unplug the video cable, the hashrate drop to 300... I read on the web I need a fake dvi: is there any way to avoid it?

thanks =)

Hi Luke-Jr

There is a comment on the Monarch thread, that the communication protocol is soon to be released.

https://forums.butterflylabs.com/announcements/4414-monarch-information.html#post72957

Are you still planning to Include this card into BFGminer?

I already have completed (untested) code for the Monarch over USB.
I plan to begin on PCI-e when I get back from the Bitcoin conference in Miami.
Note PCI-e mode might require Linux 3.6+ for VFIO support.

is it avail to peek at on github?
