You do know these are obsolete now? I shut mine off about 6 weeks ago. But if you insist on running them, use Hashra's SD card image for rPi. It's foolproof and stable.

And don't try to mine SHA with them... strictly for Scrypt.

I wouldn't say that,low power consumption is their strongpoint  Wink

They require a lot of cables & can take up abit of space,but still are viable  Grin

I might get a bunch of them again....if the price is right  Wink

I used CGminer,I think 3.7.1 & it was stable,just had to plug em in one at a time after starting CGminer  Roll Eyes

With bartle fork you just compile and go...no plugging steps needed. Overall hashra image for the Pi is my favorite though...so simple and stable.

Agreed use either: Hashra Controla / Minera / Scripta / Starminer / Or just load up the forked version of cgminer and use plain wheezy for the OS.
Forked cgminer with gridseed support: https://github.com/dtbartle/cgminer-gc3355

Straight from the Software section here

Minera, a web frontend built on Raspbian, allowing the use of BFGMiner, CGMiner, and CPUMiner for Gridseed.

Hello to everybody,

...2 GridSeed...Raspbian...software..?

Andrea

http://hashra.com/support/

The so-called support page appears to be (mostly) spam.  The link entitled "GRIDSEED MINI SET UP GUIDE" leads to
https://mega.co.nz/#!K1AiQD7Y!xwo3kuWmmYMRrxkZQ4Oryv0fVKZRLXex33ImM_JGWjk
which offers an app to access the file (trojan? don't know, didn't go there)

In my search so far, I noticed some applicable posts elsewhere in the blog D4rkAng3l referenced:

I'm still looking for more info about the gridseeds, but I'll give those images a try.

Hello to everybody,

I have 2 GridSeed, this product: http://cryptomining-blog.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/gridseed-5-chip-gold-scrypt-asic.jpg

and I want use these hardware controlled by Linux (controlled by my RaspBerry that use Raspbian that is a minimalistic Linux Debian distribution)
