OpenWrt does not have a hidapi package

That's all well and good but for two things. 1. I don't have a Windows machine. 2. I don't have a Pi. So, anyway. Am I stuck with pointlessly 100% HW errors and no actual mining?  What are you using? Edit: Sorry about the rant, it's been a LONG day, and a bottle of red wine hasn't helped it much... You should drink sparkling white wine instead, That will cheer you up. Turned out I had food poisoning (or similar). Was talking on the big white phone to Ruth and Huey all night, only just managed to eat half a banana there now.  |

Well, it turns out OpenWRT is missing some packages that stop the BlueFurys working. |

Ah, thanks Luke-Jr. Looks like I'll be firing up an old netbook to run these things then.  |

Got them working on the Mac. Must be something up with BFGMiner on OpenWRT.

TPLink TL-WDR3600 running OpenWRT. Ran the BEs OK, and runs the Just tried the BlueFuzzies on the MacBook Pro, they work OK there. I'm in contact with Luke-Jr about the OpenWRT fail.

Anyone got these BlueFury miners actually working? I've mine 'mining' with 100% error rates. I'm using: bfgminer -S bigpic:all Also tried: bfgminer -S BF1:all Running bfgminer 3.5.1 on OpenWRT. I wonder if there's an alignment or endian issue... can you confirm whether it works or not on a x86 system? What OpenWrt platform? It's on a TPLink TN-WDR3600, which is ar71xx I don't actually have a x86 system here at the moment other than a Macbook Pro. Macbook Pro would work for a test... OK, just got Homebrew/BFGMiner 3.5.1 installed. Miner is mining OK on the Mac. It still doesn't work on OpenWRT. |

So what's with the 100% error rates on these things? BFGMiner 3.5.1 on OpenWRT. They seem 'A Bit Shit TM'  Follow what I posted above it will sort your 100% errors out I was ready to sell these befor and was at boiling point ended up formatting system and re doing everything and now working. Still not happy with the results tho want faster maybe better firmware to come out in the future. None of that applies to OpenWRT, unfortunately. |

Mine arrived this morning, just got them plugged in. No clue how to get them working, though. BFGMiner 3.5.1 on OpenWRT.
Anyone any hints? Assume OpenWRT to be like Linux.

I use: screen -dmS bfg bfgminer <your command options>Then whenever I log in, to connect to the BFG instance, just use: screen -x bfg
Hope this helps. |

Were the miners sent by Parcel Force? Got nothing in post, but got a Parcel Force card. I wasn't expecting anything else... Weird.

The word you're looking for is "scaremonger".  |

I don't know what the confusion or guessing is all about? The picture he posted is IN the ASICMiner Powerpoint that 01BTC10 linked! Of course they're Blades - why would ASICMiner be putting anything else in their presentation? |

I remember everyone having electric radiator heating in london a couple years ago, so it must be cheaper than gas there.
I think you were high. Only places I see with electric heating in the UK are apartments or rented accomodation. Anyone who pays their own bills has gas. Over here in N. Ireland, only three of the biggest cities have gas, and our electric is expensive, so most people burn kerosene. Which is 60p a litre. Which for most people is a home heating bill of £1200-1800 a year.  |

I'm connecting to gbt.mining.eligius.st:9337 but BFGMiner is still showing stratum.m.e.s....any ideas why? It looks like it's connecting to the gbt server in the Pools menu, but the main menu is showing stratum.eligius... non-stratum protocols are given the X-Stratum header to direct miners over to stratum if they support it, since its a much lighter weight protocol. If you know what GBT is and have reason to use it, you need to specify the --no-stratum option I believe for bfgminer. Otherwise, I'd just stick with stratum for now. OK, cheers. I thought I knew what GBT was, but I think I need to do a little more reading. |
