I'm having a weird problem with Debian on a BeagleBone Black and BFGMiner.
I usually have Minepeon with BFGMiner on a RPi connected to 44 Block Erupters (Antminer U1's on the way) and it's running fine on that...
But when I tried moving my 44 BE's to the BBB, it can only detect 10 erupters. Doesn't seem to be a VCP driver issue since those that it can detect, it hashes with fine on BFGMiner. Tried all combinations of
-S all, -S erupter:auto, -S erupter:all. But even if I specify all 44 in the conf file with direct paths like this, it stops at 10 or less instead of getting all 44:
"scan" : [
"erupter:/dev/ttyUSB0",
"erupter:/dev/ttyUSB1",
"erupter:/dev/ttyUSB2",
"erupter:/dev/ttyUSB3",
"erupter:/dev/ttyUSB4",
"erupter:/dev/ttyUSB5",
"erupter:/dev/ttyUSB6",
"erupter:/dev/ttyUSB7",
"erupter:/dev/ttyUSB8",
"erupter:/dev/ttyUSB9",
"erupter:/dev/ttyUSB10",
"erupter:/dev/ttyUSB11",
"erupter:/dev/ttyUSB12",
"erupter:/dev/ttyUSB13",
"erupter:/dev/ttyUSB14",
"erupter:/dev/ttyUSB15",
"erupter:/dev/ttyUSB16",
"erupter:/dev/ttyUSB17",
"erupter:/dev/ttyUSB18",
"erupter:/dev/ttyUSB19",
"erupter:/dev/ttyUSB20",
"erupter:/dev/ttyUSB21",
"erupter:/dev/ttyUSB22",
"erupter:/dev/ttyUSB23",
"erupter:/dev/ttyUSB24",
"erupter:/dev/ttyUSB25",
"erupter:/dev/ttyUSB26",
"erupter:/dev/ttyUSB27",
"erupter:/dev/ttyUSB28",
"erupter:/dev/ttyUSB29",
"erupter:/dev/ttyUSB30",
"erupter:/dev/ttyUSB31",
"erupter:/dev/ttyUSB32",
"erupter:/dev/ttyUSB33",
"erupter:/dev/ttyUSB34",
"erupter:/dev/ttyUSB35",
"erupter:/dev/ttyUSB36",
"erupter:/dev/ttyUSB37",
"erupter:/dev/ttyUSB38",
"erupter:/dev/ttyUSB39",
"erupter:/dev/ttyUSB40",
"erupter:/dev/ttyUSB41",
"erupter:/dev/ttyUSB42",
"erupter:/dev/ttyUSB43"
],
Is this a limitation of the BeagleBoneBlack with Debian and BFGMiner? or is there a way to fix this. I'd rather have it running on my BBB than my Pi which seems to crash/lockup more often.
I have another BBB with Debian running my Drillbits boards ok, but they're only 5 anyway.
