Title: Raspberry Pi With MinePeon Not Detecting USB Hub? Post by: CoinGeneral on November 30, 2013, 03:42:56 PM Hi,
When I plug 1x asic block erupters into the RPI itself, it's able to mine just fine, but if I use an aitech 10 port hub, it's not able to detect that there are at least 1x block erupters on the hub. When I do ls /dev, it's not detecting any new USB devices so I can't manually add them by using BFG miner. What to do? Title: Re: Raspberry Pi With MinePeon Not Detecting USB Hub?

What kind of hub are you using, I'm guessing the aitech 10 port hub, is USB 3.0? Title: Re: Raspberry Pi With MinePeon Not Detecting USB Hub? Post by: CoinGeneral on November 30, 2013, 07:22:49 PM Yeah, it is a usb 3.0 hub. I plug it into my laptop and whether using a usb 3.0 cable or not, it works. If I plug it into a 3.0 port or not, it works.
However you're right, looking it up it seems like 3.0 hubs don't work too well with the RPI Title: Re: Raspberry Pi With MinePeon Not Detecting USB Hub?

Sounds confusing, but what I did with mine: RPi <---- USB2 <--- USB2, USB2, USB3, USB3 |
