0.97 also shows a continuous drop of hashrate for me from 500 to 470 (3 hour average eligius).
Actually.. it doesn't seem to be coming back in any previous firmware. Last value was 450 and that's where it stayed. I read compatible reports on KNC's forum. I fear 0.97 might damage bad Jupiters... Careful upgrading yours.
.96 does seem to be better than .97 on good jupiters. I haven't tried it on a bad jupiter yet.. so far bad jupiters hash better on .94 'overclocked' running bfgminer but the VRMs/chips do have to take a beating.. perhaps heatsinks?
to 'cure' modules, remove the asic_test file and install .96, run enable cores and few times and reboot. It should do its 1-2 min asic tests and then reboot itself. you should have more enabled cores again
How do I remove that asic_test file??

Please some help on this. I can't seem to find the answer.
I'm not sure why you need to remove this file - I would think it would just overwrite it, but if you really want to remove it:
SSH into the machine, then:
# cd /config
# rm asic_test
The '#' is the command line prompt - don't type that.
Well, I read to try it here. And I read about it on the knc forum. Seems like someone wants a guinea pig. Any success with this? Anyone?
If you are concerned about breaking sth, just rename this file ?
Then you can revert it anytime.
#mv /config/asic_test /config/asic_test.bak
mine is v0.97 and I don't see this file
