bfgminer has failed to solve a single block while cpuminer has found 20 so far.
What can be wrong? Thanks!
You've solved 20 blocks with a CPU? I don't think so. If you had, you're either posting from 2008 and got 1000BTC for nothing, or you're the luckiest person alive, or you're reading the screens wrong. I suspect what you're seeing is "New block detected" on the network, which bfgminer doesn't report (because it's pointless information). Maybe he is working on some early forked chain or something (doing solo). I'm not sure if we've had forks early on. I think he's just reading it wrong.

Any ETA on the replacements to OC3k?
They have already been shipped out. They are already in the Uk You sure about that? Yes the tracking says it has landed in the UK But not yet arrived at the final destination. Maybe you should communicate that to OC3k, because he's under the impression they haven't shipped yet?

different textiles.
That's your problem, you were using denim when you should have been using polyester.

I'm not sure you want to fix this, or if you want to support this. I suspect it is not just PPC issue, all alts pools will have the same issue.
You can't run different blockchains at the same time. BFG loads whatever coin's chain on startup, and won't change it, so you can't flip between BTC and whatever other SHA junkcoin

Just add more BFL chips. Simple.

Suggestion - could you change the "Proxy" device to show each miner? bfgminer shows PXY0, PXY1, PXY2, could that be shown in MultiMiner too?
I've two Blades and a Cube, and it'd be nice to be able to see what each device is doing. Especially as one of my Blades is a bit of a tart and keeps messing about and turning itself down to Low speed.
It's coming. It should be in 2.3, which will feature a details view for each miner on the right. In fact, if you check in MobileMiner under the details for the proxy you can see each device already. Also in MobileMiner it's showing the Proxy device under the USB category, which is a bit strange?
This is done and just waiting for me to add some polish and get the updates up. It includes recognizing proxies, showing the current pool name, showing the full name of devices, and showing the last time a device was online/mining if it no longer is. Awesome, looking forward to the updates.

I'm running mine with a CX750 in high clock mode with no issues at all. It has 55A on the 12v rail which should be more than enough for one even overclocked. 2 in low clock mode should *maybe* be possible but pushing it. Your PSU might be a dud?
Maybe. It's also running two Blades and two Jalapenos. It's been running fine for 3 months. To be fair, I didn't play with it much, and just took the Cube to work and fired it up on another PSU. I'm bringing it and the spare PSU home tomorrow, so I'll have more of a chance to play.

what about mining ltc with them? any help ??
Well, only way you could mine LTC with one is: 1. take everything out of the case 2. Get an electrical engineer, electronic engineer and a software engineer 3. Design a totally new type of ASIC chip 4. Design a board to take these new chips 5. Fit those boards to the Cube case 6. 7. Profit

Any plans to re add cgminer to multiminer using older version of cgminer while keeping updating flowing for multi?
No. No reason to at all. And no time or resources for it. Others are free to contribute though. Using cgminer is like taking the engine out of a Ferrari and replacing it with a Lada engine.

Also would a 300w power supply be sufficient to power one cube (overclocking)? as I see in the tutorial it says:
200w no overclock 280w overclocked
Thanks.
Doubt it. I have a 30A @12V bench supply, and it won't power a Cube at all, it just freaks out with overload. 30A is 360W. I'm running my Cube of an old Dell PSU which does a maximum of 18A per rail (so it's giving out 36A/432W to the Cube) and it won't run at High speed. Runs OK at Low. I don't know who was smoking what when they came up with that 200W figure, because it's pure fantasy.

Not sure if serious.

Dude i am pritty sure you will be burning more electricity up than making any profit with that setup,are you not aware of this?
That's your opinion. Mining is a long term investment - BTC price goes up, so the more you can mine now the more you can save for when BTC is worth $2000 (or perhaps $10k).

P2Pool has been broken forever where ASICs are concerned, and the devs run around waving their arms about blaming everyone else, rather than fixing it.
Go mine somewhere else that works, don't bother wasting your time.

I am new in Bitcoin mining. I want a ASICMiner Blade. Where can i buy this ? Please The Blades are discontinued. You'd need to buy a Cube, which are around 1BTC.

Those D-Link hubs may be your problem. When I started it bought several D-Limks, was never happy with them. Sold them and replaced them with Rosewill 500's, no more usb trouble. I understand you can't get Rosewill in the UK, maybe ship from USA.
Possibly. I don't think it's worth shipping a USB hub from the US just to host 5GH of USB miners. To be fair, I think I'm going to abandon the USB miners, they're more trouble than they're worth.

I am running Minepeon without issue for a month now with Butterfly Little SC.
I have also TPLink router with DDWRT firmware where I installed BFGMiner. But did not test it yet to run the mining there. I like that the Minepeon gives remote monitoring of mining advantage option.
I'm about 80GH though - 2x Jalapenos, 2x AsicMiner Blades, 1x AsicMiner Cube, and a few Block Erupters. As for remote monitoring, I just SSH to the OpenWRT machine, same as I do with MinePeon - I rarely used the web interface anyway.
