1. what make and model of tablet 2. the tablet wont supply enough power for most devices as most tablets are limited to putting out around 200ma (most arnt designd for more than a keyboard and mouse) so you would need a good USB2 hub for the power Title: Re: When you start bfgminer not find USB device. Post by: jimbo12 on August 23, 2014, 04:04:21 PM I have a dual core processor 1.6 GHz.
Error found the device occurs when I have usb miner switched directly in the OTG cable. I do not use a USB hub. Title: Re: When you start bfgminer not find USB device.

Post by: jimbo12 on August 23, 2014, 04:47:11 PM I have not installed these drivers.
You can write me how to download these drivers in Linux? I am a beginner. Title: Re: When you start bfgminer not find USB device.

I am a beginner. I build on Lubuntu not too long ago and don't recall having to install any drivers. You need to use the appropriate flag when building though. https://github.com/luke-jr/bfgminer/blob/bfgminer/README https://github.com/luke-jr/bfgminer/blob/bfgminer/README.ASIC I don't see you mentioning which USB mining hardware you are using?

Any solutions ? Title: Re: When you start bfgminer not find USB device. Post by: crazyearner on August 09, 2015, 04:58:52 PM Try using multi miner software should solve all your problems as this detects all types of usb miners without problems.
If you need the drivers for it you can download them fro mtheri site http://www.multiminerapp.com/ just scroll down to drivers and chose what usb you have install the drivers then reboot system. Once installed then start up your miners and load up multiminer app and this should start to detect them and then you just need to set up your pools to mine on then your good to go. for multiminer support see thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=248173.0 Title: Re: When you start bfgminer not find USB device.

The syntax you provided is Windows centric in nature. As a general guide, backslashes (i.e. \ ) are for Windows, and forward slashes (i.e. / ) is for Linux. USB mining devices will usually show up as /dev/ttyUSB devices. My limited experience with bfgminer under Linux didn't include a specific device references, it just "found" them. I didn have to build bfgminer at the time, and make sure to include the proper device support for the type of miner. I would almost certainly use cgminer now under Linux. |
