With the HashBuster Micro removed from the equation (and hashing on a PC) the Rpi works great.
Glad to hear you got it sorted. Glad I didn't bother buying a HashBuster Micro and got an ASICMiner Cube instead...

Well I just received my BBB. Got one with a case from Phenoptix. The case disintegrated the first time I put it together, so that's £7.99 down the pan. Seems to be made out of the world's most brittle perspex. The case I got with my Pi is indestructible, despite being of almost identical design (both clones of Adafruit's cases). Got the BBB up and running, and I must say the shipped linux distribution is terrible. Angstrom junk. Am going to put Ubuntu on it, but I'm plucking up the courage to drive down to ASDA through the 80mph gales and Christmas shopping traffic to get a uSD card...I'm not sure I could be bothered. Oh, and how bright are the lights on the BBB?!? You guys can probably see the blue flashing coming from the direction of N. Ireland....that'll be my BBB....

Yeah, I remember sending back a GPU to them years ago. It literally blew up the first time I plugged it in (I think it was a GF2MX), a cap just evaporated leaving a burnt hole in the board. About a month later the fried card arrived back with "No Fault Found". Yeah, no fault apart from the 1cm hole in the board and no video output, and no POST on the PC...

I know it's 2 dashes.
You typed one in your first post. Your attitude stinks, so stick it up your ass.

Just got an email from Overclockers, and they're listing a load of hardware that's "Great for Mining" - including PSUs, GPUs and the like. Nice to see them getting in on the action, though I wonder how they'll deal with all the returns of melted PSUs and burnt out GPUs?
|
|
|
No. This is why.
This is why you shouldn't use modular PSUs. That melting has nothing to do with running a GPU off a molex, it has to do with a bad connection in the modular cable connection. If there was a good connection, the WIRE would melt, not the connector. Most molex to PCI-E cables come with two molex plugs - use two different cables from the PSU so you're splitting the load. Less chance of melting the stupid connectors.

I was mining more than 18 hours with butterfly lab Jalapeno 5 gh/s ,im using bitminter and i didnt get any coins yet ?do i need wait 24 hours untill they will pay me?
At 5GH you're going to be waiting a LONG time for "coins". Most pools you need to set the payout level, most usually default to 0.1BTC, which at 5GH will likely take you about 2 months.

Now, none of the stats show up (all say 0 G Hash/s/ 0 balance etc), although my miner is working fine. I also seem to get a payout (by transfer not mined) every couple of hours (obviously much lower amount).
This makes no sense at all. Stats have been working fine for me for months.

--http-port 8330
Two dashes, not one.

The --nm and --rt stuff is for Slush's stratum_proxy.exe - it's got nothing to do with bfgminer. My MinePeon command is: /opt/minepeon/bin/bfgminer -S all --http-port 8330 -c /opt/minepeon/etc/miner.confAssuming you've done a git pull to get MinePeon's version of bfgminer up to 3.8.0 Then all you do is set the Pi's IP address in the server section of the Blade's config, port, and put in a unique username and password on each Blade - it doesn't matter what it is, as long as it's not the same as any other Blade you're going to use. If it's all working within a few minutes you should see a PXY device appear on the MinePeon screen. Simples.

So, with the faulty BlueFury miners not having been replaced, and an offer of NanoFurys as replacement (which also haven't appeared due to component shortages), some of us are now looking refunds. Even if shipped to Europe on Monday, it'll be well in to the second week of the new year before they get to us.
That means more than 2 months to get a replacement.
What are the chances of a full refund? Slim? None?

From memory, that program makes a .bat file in the GUIMiner-scrypt folder. For example, if you set up a "7950" setting in GUIMiner, you'll find a 7950.bat file. You can add a backup pool by editting that .bat file.

not very load at all - though I have it sat in a noisy room anyway...
Thanks. I hope by the lack of posting by OC3k, he's out at the Post Office sending the 2nd batch.

I think we're well within our rights to have our BTC refunded, do you not think ?
+ 1 Anyone who has returned a unit should receive a full refund. This is beyond a joke. This. The current offer of replacing with Nanofurys isn't looking so good now. I'd rather have the BTC back and get another Cube. Yes, 38GH for the price of 2GH (near enough).

I'll have more anecdotes once I get the second rig cased over the weekend.
I'll be keeping an eye on this thread, I'll be interested to hear your findings.

To the guys who have their Cubes already - how loud is the fan in the Cube?
My mining rig lives behind the sofa in the living room, so I don't want too much noise. Is the fan temp controlled, or does it just run flat out all the time like the BFL fans?

Bitfury are, without a shadow of a doubt, the single worst company I have ever dealt with.
Beastlymac has lied through his teeth to us throughout this whole process and the product has been functioning well below spec.
Utterly dreadful company. This has been a horrendous experience from beginning-to-end.
Thank GOD we had outcast3k doing his best to communicate, even when there was no news.
+1 I'm undecided if Bitfury or BFL are worse. Bitfury were late, underperforming and unreliable. I had 50% failure rate with Bitfury. Still waiting on repair/replacement. At stock speeds the BlueFury's heatsink was totally and utterly inadequate. I upgraded the sink on mine, and it still runs at 'holy-shit' temps. BFL, OK they were 5 months late for me, but both my units are working above their advertised speed, and so far been totally reliable. They 'just work'.

Any update on the 2nd batch ETA?
Looks like its out for delivery, so I should receive them today \ / As long as I receive them by 3:30-4:00pm, I should just about, have time to send them all today. EPIC!

So, we're still waiting for the replacement miners...
Whiskey Tango Foxtrot is happening?
