I must have installed winusb 5 times and it still didn`t work.  Then I was told there is a problem with usb3 hubs. so the 100 gbp anker hub i`d bought was useless because they hadn`t got round to fixing it

I have an Anker USB3 hub, and it works perfectly with BFGMiner - it works with BFG on USB3 on three different PCs (AsMedia USB3, Intel USB3, NEC USB3), and USB2 on all the computers I've tried.  It also works on a TPLink 703N micro-router running OpenWRT with the Anker hub, which also powers the router.

I'd rather not use my 3 Bluefurys than use cgminer again, it sucks pretty hard when compared to bfgminer - no built-in proxy, poor BlockErupter support, the retarded need for fucking about with WinUSB drivers, terrible interface...  BFG also has and a developer who has a personality and is happy to help with issues rather than saying "README  Roll Eyes" in response to any questions.

But, hey, horses for courses.

I'm guessing (and only guessing) it's the power board for the V1 Blade.

Luke-Jr, any update on when an official version of BFG is due with the Bluefury USB stick stuff built in?  Particularly the Windows version?

I see there's a version supplied by the Bitfury guys, but downloading "bfgMiner.zip" from a non-Luke-Jr server makes my ass twitch a bit.  Undecided

I'll take another one, just waiting on some mined coins maturing, and I'll pay then.

Have you tried asking your ASICMiner reseller?  Canary for US, yxt for EU.

Stick them to the back of your bathroom mirror, never have a misted up mirror again.
2048  Bitcoin / Mining support / Re: need advice on: October 02, 2013, 09:40:27 AM
There's other SHA256 coins out there, other than BTC.  If you're in to hedging your bets, you could mine some of them and they might be worth a bit sometime.  It really is a waiting game, though.

Thanks HellDiver, that makes me fell a bit more comfortable.... Grin I never thought of that.

I got a NMC payment just after midnight there.  A whole 0.4NMC.  Whoop.  Shocked  I'm rich.  Roll Eyes
2050  Bitcoin / Mining support / Re: Blade Block Erupter spends a lot of time asking for work w/o doing much... on: October 02, 2013, 07:55:58 AM

My 10GH/s Block Erupter Blade is configured to mine on Bitminter.com.  I use mining_proxy.exe on my computer to act as a proxy between the blade & the site.  I watch the "command prompt window' on the server and it seems to send more lines asking for work than submitting results.  Is there any way to increase it's work output w/o overclocking?


Normal behavior.

The Blade asking for new work is normal, the proxy generates getwork work itself, so the Blade must ask for new work. Basically the Blade is saying  "I'm finished, next please". 

iv not played with it but on the proxy try loosing the -gp 8332 bit dont think bitminter supports it anyway

Useless advice.  All -gp 8332 does is set the getwork port on the proxy to 8332.   Next time you're going to give advice, try finding out what you're talking about first.  Roll Eyes

Try -G instead of the --disable-gpu.

I'll try and remember later.  I thought I had the pics on my phone, but seems I actually took them with my camera, so can't post them now. Embarrassed

If everyone in the uk switched on their electric kettle at 7-50 pm instead of 8-00 pm, then the sudden demand would shut down the power grid.(it's expected at 8pm but not before).  It takes 24 hours to restart all the tripped out nuclear power stations.

Do many people in the UK switch on their electric kettles at 8:00 pm? Smiley

It was a traditional event on a Wednesday evening Grin

I'm assuming this is just an example of 'British humour', lol.  Because if true, that is VERY odd societal 'behavior' (translation - behaviour).  Grin

No, it's because most people have a cup of tea mid-evening.

See: http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/soaps/s2/eastenders/news/a151673/enders-causes-national-power-surge.html

National Grid's control room has people sitting watching TV, getting ready for the big power drain to start...

Now you know.

We know something for sure, and it isn't that GHash.io was the source of the DDoS.  Roll Eyes
2055  Bitcoin / Mining support / Re: P2Pool local DOA shares - too high? on: October 01, 2013, 08:57:25 PM
Local rate  29.1GH/s (14% DOA) here.  All hail the ASICMiner Blades.  Roll Eyes

I'm not concerned, DOA shares are still paid out as far as I can tell - my payouts on P2Pool are very similar to Eligius and EMC.
2056  Bitcoin / Pools / Re: [14000GH/s] p2pool: Decentralized, DoS-resistant, Hop-Proof pool on: October 01, 2013, 08:52:34 PM
is there a list of p2pool instances (for LTC and BTC) somewhere?

Try https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=264533.0 for the list on here.

An automated list is available at http://p2pool-nodes.info/

Well, if it's any help, I've not had a payment in a week or so, I'm using the latest namecoin-qt on Windows.  My p2pool is saying it's getting merged mining work OK. 

I wonder now that BTCGuild and Eligius are doing NMC merged mining, is p2pool not finding so many blocks?  Those two big pools must be finding lots of blocks?
2058  Bitcoin / Pools / Re: [14000GH/s] p2pool: Decentralized, DoS-resistant, Hop-Proof pool on: October 01, 2013, 05:43:26 PM
This is a do-it-all machine, so I didn't mind spending the cash on the drives.  They do the p2pool stuff, they host up to 8 VMs, and they use less than 1W when running.  The big data for the rest of the house (movies, TV shows, Music, etc) is stored on a pair of 4TB 5900rpm drives which spend most of the day spun down. 

It's about as power efficient as I can get it - 430W 80Plus Gold PSU, Asus B75 chipset board, 65W i5, integrated iGPU - it's a fast machine considering at full chat it only uses 80W.  Typically it's around 50W.

I'm getting better latency, though I am only merge mining NMC.  Machine is an i5-3570S (the low-power 3.1/3.8GHz), 16GB DDR3-1600, and 2x250GB Samsung 840 SSD.  Running on Windows 8.1.  Machine also runs BFGMiner for all my mining hardware, is my home NAS, downloader machine, VM host...

12.8 was always best for me when I ran GPUs.
