The start of something new perhaps?
Thats a nice piece of hashing power right there Which boards are those? Anti-gravity miners, it seems.

Wondering why the cex.io thread disappeared from Mining Spec forum - just gone.

How can I set up some sort of web page that'll allow me to access BFGMiner on OpenWRT? I assume there's some way using miner.php, but I haven't got a notion how to even start? Something like what juhakall has in their post above is the kind of thing I'm looking for - just a way of keeping tabs on the miner from the web. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Just want to report that everything is working well on OpenWRT - stratum and getwork proxies, USB Erupters, the lot. Running off a TPLink WDR3600. Got 11 Erupters, 2 Blades running through it at the moment, a few GPUs (for testing stratum proxy). BlueFury sticks arriving soon, and Jalapeno arrive sometime in 2014 (Two Weeks tm).

How long are you leaving it? It takes a loooooong time to update, because there's a lot of blocks being solved recently.

Was it ever?
yes in 13.04 via synaptic... That's not what you asked, though, is it? You asked if it was no longer available in 13.10, insinuating that it was available in 13.10 and no longer is.

apt-cache search bfgminer bfgminer no more availlable in Ubuntu 13.10? Was it ever?

You really need to watch for direct rainfall on your ring.

Time Machine?
Works for me (external HDD connected to my Airport Extreme).

What is the specs of your webserver?

Think these are the last mining hardware I'm going to buy, unless something REALLY cheap comes along. cex.io is working out cheaper by far, buy a few GH when it's cheap, no bother with power consumption, running a PC for mining programs, etc...

Agreed, sorry, I went in a 'big kid who lost his lolly' crusade to OffTopicLand.
I also apologise for being a TAUC towards kano and ck - there's no need for it, even though I disagree with their choice of USB drivers, they're still producing one of the top-two mining programs, without which BTC wouldn't be where it is now.
I hope you accept my apologies.

The author(s) of the Other Miner(tm) have added a lot of stuff that is genuinely useful, recently (getwork and stratum proxy built in, nicer user interface, more useful stats on the screen, author provided OpenWRT build, etc). I still loath your decision to go with WinUSB - the hotplug thing is pointless, and the WinUSB stuff just adds a layer of complication that isn't needed. He also answers questions in his thread, rather than your stock "README " answers you seem to give. So in your opinion hotplug is pointless - well I'm glad we got that clear. Your opinion of hotplug is indeed just that and no more. And again, you pick up on the least important part of my post. I've bolded the important parts for the hard of thinking. But, yeah, about the hot plug - who the hell unplugs their miners? Mine are plugged in 24/7, mining 24/7. Only time mine aren't mining is on the very rare occasion I'm rebooting the host PC. Going by the "post your rig" threads, I think I'm in the majority group who mine the hell out of their machines, and aren't unplugging their miners willy-nilly.

I can't help, other than saying I didn't see the same here (rMBP, i5, 10.8.5, Bitcoin-qt 0.8.5).
Don't you mean i7? I thought all rMBP were i7? No, it's a 2.5GHz i5. See: http://www.apple.com/uk/macbook-pro/specs-retina/ - mine's the base spec 13"

Yeah, you don't need or want all that icarus shit. bfgminer.exe <pool stuff> -S erupter:all is all you need. Even the -G isn't required, as GPU mining is disabled by default on BFG 3.3.0
You want to upgrade from 3.1.4 - 3.3 is far better.

It gets tiring having you go around dissing the effort I put in just because you support a hostile fork. I don't recall personal attacks against you to make you to take sides with such an aggressive stance. You don't like my software and its approach or p2pool, don't use it, but don't expend so much energy putting down other people's hard work. There's a big difference between constructive criticism and just plain bashing. You want to flame? Take it elsewhere, this is the p2pool thread.
To forrestv's credit, he made a LOT of changes leading into the ASIC era, like beefing up stratum support, variable difficulty, clamping down on memory leaks and the longer blocks. There is ALWAYS more work to be done when the landscape is changing so fast in the bitcoin mining world, but it's clear the manufacturers till now have not put p2pool on their radar at all.
To be fair, ck, you're not exactly Mr Carisma. If you say bfgminer is a hostile fork, then I pose the notion that you're a hostile developer. The author(s) of the Other Miner(tm) have added a lot of stuff that is genuinely useful, recently (getwork and stratum proxy built in, nicer user interface, more useful stats on the screen, author provided OpenWRT build, etc). I still loath your decision to go with WinUSB - the hotplug thing is pointless, and the WinUSB stuff just adds a layer of complication that isn't needed. He also answers questions in his thread, rather than your stock "README " answers you seem to give. OK, so forrestv has made some changes, but I don't see any recent changes, or even any discussion of changes in the pipeline. I'm thinking he's sitting somewhere with fingers in ears singing "la la la la" in a loud voice. I'm willing to be proven wrong.

How our devs can fight that?
Well, I'm coming back to the "they work with other pools". I've donated to p2pool plenty - I left the author donation on, and I even sent BTC - but nothing has been done in ages. p2pool really is becoming a still-birth. It's not 2012, people aren't mining with GPUs any more. I know I'm only a low-scale miner (30GH, soon 50GH), but I'm not using p2pool because it doesn't work with my hardware, even when I mine to p2pool through a proxy. OK, it's only 30GH, but if I'm giving up on the pool, what are the chances of new users going to the bother of setting up a machine, only to find it doesn't work? Nil. p2pool's continued EXISTENCE relies on it being able to cope with the current and future ASIC miners, no matter what retarded firmware on them does.

Oh, OK, so you're changing the terms, because classically a stratum proxy (like slush's one) allows a getwork client to mine on a stratum pool. That's cool, as long as I know what you're calling what. So, back to the question - is the getwork proxy available on OpenWRT?
