Hi emdje,
i don't use the hole image, just the cgminer binary and a conf file.
So no webinterface, just pure console input.
The reason for this is i use several instances of different cgminer binarys, because i control several different miners with just one raspberry pi.
Every miner runs in it's own screen session, and i get access to them via ssh.
Your version of cgminer doesn't have ncurses support, and that's why it does not accept keyboard input via console.
It works via API calls (like the webif does) so it works without problem if you use the hole image.
Do you understand what i mean...?
Thank you for your time and your work for all the a2 users!
I see why that could be different, and very clever to run them like that.
Don't fully get it yet, but I see it as a nice go to learn some more and try and built a version that works for you.
I am interested in how you connect multiple miners (I assume multiple control boards??) to the pi. Could you explain, possibly with photo's? Keen to learn here
It is easter now, so it will probably take some days before I get around to it, but I will get back to you.
You just need the package "libncurses5-dev" installed on your build system, that should do the trick.
^^^^ is that really enough or do I need to do more?
