Title: Plz advice/comment on my Gridseed gc3355 status
Post by: UzeerPlus on May 11, 2014, 12:22:47 PM
Hi all,

I'm new with Gridseed gc3355, and wanna ask: does someone meet the same problems as I did?

  • there are tons of hardware errors with https://github.com/gridseed/cgminer-3.1.1-GC3355-SV (https://github.com/gridseed/cgminer-3.1.1-GC3355-SV)'s cgminer - see http://pastebin.com/912CEYDd (http://pastebin.com/912CEYDd),
  • both https://github.com/dtbartle/cgminer-gc3355 (https://github.com/dtbartle/cgminer-gc3355)'s cgminer-gc3355 and https://github.com/girnyau/cgminer-gc3355 (https://github.com/girnyau/cgminer-gc3355)'s one give me neither one coin nor any transaction during long mining time (and, what is amt=0 err=-7 ern=110 error?)- see http://pastebin.com/HB4RGbCi (http://pastebin.com/HB4RGbCi) when debug option was activated,
  • no bfgminer for me, because both https://github.com/nwoolls/bfgminer (https://github.com/nwoolls/bfgminer)'s bfgminer and https://github.com/luke-jr/bfgminer (https://github.com/luke-jr/bfgminer)'s one configured with configure --enable-scrypt --enable-gridseed and running as bfgminer -S gridseed:all --set-device gridseed:clock=850 --failover-only --scrypt -c somewhere/mypool.conf complain with NO DEVICES FOUND, and cannot find Gridseed neither in auto nor manual specifying the /dev/ttyACM0 device,
  • and, only https://github.com/pooler/cpuminer (https://github.com/pooler/cpuminer) works and makes ~250KH/s for me, but I'm not sure whether CPU mining is effective/good for Gridseed?

My single Gridseed looks good from Linux sys logs:

Any practical advice or comment for me? Thanks.
