Title: Cgminer 4.9.0 on raspberry pi 2 support needed. Post by: tidioute06 on December 10, 2015, 02:26:09 PM So I'm trying to setup cgminer on a raspberry pi 2. This is purely for fun/educational purposes. I have a block erupter and two bitfury asics. I followed adafruits guide. Unfortunately cgminer 3.1.1 is no longer available. I'm using cgminer 4.9.0. I followed all the instructions (being a Linux noob) and I can't get cgminer to open. I get the error usb init, open device failed, err -3, you don't have privilege to access
After looking through the cgminer Readme I thought it might be a permissions issue. I tried what the guide recommended but I either don't understand it or have done it wrong. I got cgminer working with the same hardware on my windows pc so I know the miners are ok. Any ideas? Title: Re: Cgminer 4.9.0 on raspberry pi 2 support needed.

I found v.3.1.1 on github in a few seconds: https://github.com/ckolivas/cgminer/releases/tag/v3.1.1 Might want to give that a whirl. I'll follow this thread and help best I can. Good luck! Also, ensure that you have the latest usb drivers for your OS. I admit I am not super up-to-date on RasPI's I have mined using other ARM devices under Arch linux though.

I'm really looking to learn but the amount of info for a newbie is a bit overwhelming lol. I'll give the 3.1 a try and see what happens.

Nvm I'm an dumdass..lol Don't forget that when building cgminer to enable icarus and bitfury support in the configure flags. (adafruits guide may mention this) . Title: Re: Cgminer 4.9.0 on raspberry pi 2 support needed. Post by: tidioute06 on December 10, 2015, 02:55:38 PM It does. So is icarus like a usb driver for linux?

No, icarus supprt is what will be needed for your block eruptor. Usb support should already be enabled in raspbian (which I assume you are using). I'll see if I can dig up some more info if you have continued trouble. Title: Re: Cgminer 4.9.0 on raspberry pi 2 support needed.

Post by: tidioute06 on December 10, 2015, 11:50:55 PM So I got it to atleast see the bitfury miners. Still no luck on the blockerupter. I'm still getting the usb failed to init error..I'm really at a loss.

I followed all that in the readme. i get: cannot stat '01-cgminer.rules' no such file or directory I know the folder is there. I can see it but for some reason it won't let me run the command. Like i said I'm a newbie at linux. I'm probably doing something incorrect. Title: Re: Cgminer 4.9.0 on raspberry pi 2 support needed.
