Because in linux with bfgminer i have this problem

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.4157488

and the same problem happens and with an anker usb 3 hub. With cgminer all usb errupters runs perfect.

I use a Raspberry Pi with MinePeon and bfgminer running 20 Block Erupters and a bunch of other items using D-Link 7-port hubs.

I have try everything. My rig is in one dell netbook and it has only usb2. Bfgminer dont like linux and dont like linux with usb hub. As i said cgminer runs perfect but it hasn't support for antminer atm. I think i will wait for the next version.

Have you plugged the hub into the USB2 port? Some computers don't like miners on their USB3 ports.
Usually the hubs are backwards compatible and will work on a USB2 port. (not true for a rPi but their USB2 is not the best)

Ok it works but i have other problem when i run cgminer the antminer disabled from bfgminer. I think i will wait for cgminer support to run it. thanks

If BFGminer works, why do you then run CGminer? mixing the two is going to cause problems.

If you run BFGminer for your antminers, you use -S antminer:all (plus the arguments described earlier in this thread)

If you need to run another session of BFG for another device the you need to use -S otherdevice:all ( with the required arguments for that device)

If you "HAVE" to use CGminer,( LOL ) then you need to specify each type of miner with the required arguments.

This way you reduce the chance of driver conflicts.

LOL.... Why will running the two cause a problem?

Because they use entirely conflicting drivers for ASICs. You aren't using both for ASICs. That is why you haven't had issues.

Both are highly configurable so you can specify exactly what each is to do.

I have been running cgminer on my 7xxx series GPU's for a long while now, but I have been using bfgminer for my asics on the same machines.

I get a little better performance on my GPU miners running scrypt with cgminer than I could tweak out with bfgminer.

I run all of my ASICs on bfgminer for the same reason.

On two of my GPU/ASIC miner computers, I have primary and backup proxy servers running also. I use mining_proxy.exe and bfgminer as proxy servers.

All of these programs are configurable with options and can be run side-by-side or with several instances of each all running together.

Maybe I am using an old version? I am running 3.2.1
Is this right for the antman u1?

3.10.0 is the one you need.

Fixed and working!

That was the problem.

Thank you!

is not working and with my antminer it hotplug and the two other nanofury i have. I want bfgminer to enable only the antminer

what happens when you try -S noauto -S antminer:all

How can i set bfgminer to see only antminer usb and nothing else?

OK, seems what I said was wrong. My command line was being overridden by my .config file.

Sorry chaps, carry on, what what!

I don't know what those other folks are telling you to do, but this is what I have for my command line to get my Antminer U1 running at 2GH:

bfgminer.exe -S all --set-device antminer:freq=0A81

The other suggestions are bollocks. Huh

antminer:freq was the old settings for nwooll's fork of BFGMiner 3.9.0
antminer:clock is the official setting for the mainline BFGMiner 3.10.0

nwooll updated his instructions on his blog and in this thread about the change in settings...

Well, that can't be right, because I'm running 3.10.0 on my BBB, and that's the command line I'm running (I just added the .exe for the benefit of Windows users). Huh

At a guess it's probably flashing something by on startup saying "freq" isn't recognized - it goes back fast though once all the devices start outputing info.

And the OC would still be present from when you ran it before, so you wouldn't really see anything abnormal.

No issues when I have that 44 BE's hooked up to the Pi and Minepeon or my Mac... can detect them all on both. I only see this on the BBB.

I'm holding out some hope that once the wonderful MineForeman gets a build of MinePeon on there and more folks start using them that some of these issues get worked out. I love the device and it seems to have a lot of potential but the USB subsystem on it seems very immature.

But man it's a hellofalot faster than a Pi! Compiling on them is actually not cringeworthy...

Same here... almost everything is noticeably better on the BBB than the Pi... it even has BLUE BLINKYS!!!!!

Definitely hoping MineForeman can resolve this issues with Minepeon for the BBB... Was hoping he'd have the BBB version with his latest prerelease 2.5 but no joy there... Sad

Was hoping there was just something I missed when I tried to get it working with BFGMiner on the BBB which is why I posted here.. but doesn't look like it.
