Something is fishy about that forum message. I mean to say "our company is accredited with the BBB?" Yeah - so you pay your dues to the Better Business Bureau and that means what?
In addition -- their contact email is a gmail account? Really? So professional of them.
I think someone is fishing for information.
Who's to say these Gen3 chips even exist?
It Looked cool but unlikely I guess one can dream. my main question why did Zeus stop selling them in the first place they were selling like hot cakes every one i saw wanted them ?. and i saw that thing about scrypt cloud mining now there dropping it imo they cut off there own foot . Just like KNC plans to do the same they made a ton off there scrypt miners.

Hi,
great news .. maybe I get mine starting next year ...
Regads Stefan
This is very good news . to bad about the L1 but i knew bit main would come thu no matter what so i did what I swore i would not do and per ordered one of these .either way i get my money back i went thu PayPal and so far in the US thu PayPal any bad sales or buys i had they made good i was so hoping for the L1 but had a feeling this was gonna happen but didn't say much more over the last week wanted to see what was going to happen.and so far of all the script minder out there this going to be the best one by far . unless KNC get's better at CS and gives up the idea of controlling it all and stops ripping off people if All I see about them is true . or the makers of the A1 A2 gets on the ball more . or even better Zeus starts making there chips and miner again for the public. Then we have some thing but i don't see that either . so now all my hopes rest with Hashra for script miners . or this http://www.deltaminers.com/products.html company finds a really nice chip maker they are looking good but told me in email things don't look good no chips . SEEM to be about bitmains level when it comes to support . they http://www.deltaminers.com/products.html even had a product with Pictures and nice stats till Zeus pulled there chips they were going to use Zeus chips now no Picture and are looking for a good chip maker which they may have now,well see .

Hi all,
for 2 days i try to install a miner like bfgminer, cgminer, different versions with zeus support, on my raspbian raspberry pi for my blizzard x6
i dont find any constellation, that works, and also google with "raspberry pi cgminer blizzard x6" or "raspberry pi bfgminer blizzard x6" i didn't find really helpful things.
under windows i get good results with cgminer x6 special, but i want **** to have my raspberry to mine with my blizzard.
so can anybody help my getting my actual installed bfgminer 5.0.0 to find my devices ?
i have bfgminer 5.0.0. installed but it shows no devices - not with M+ all, but i see that my miner is attached as ttyUSB0 when i look in the /dev and its on bus 001 device 7 CPX210 Cyngal (lsusb)
i tried sudo apt get hidapi but my system cant find hidapi - is this the problem ?
thanks for your help ;(
Ronny
I did in fact have all my Zeus miner using BFG 5. once on four PIs . but had to stop using it for now i like UI's like minera more and it seems any bfg i have tired but this https://litecointalk.org/index.php?topic=20477.0 on don't work well with minera but minera is about to release 4.0 and should have the latest BFG in it and it works in PI's well . but try this till the new Minera comes out,the new minera is suppose to stop the drain , cap , or power draw no connect issue BFG was having , but BFG 5 works well in command mode but i hate comnad line mode type miners so i went back to this https://litecointalk.org/index.php?topic=20477.0 inside minera 3.8 i do not have the hack issue with minera 3.8 other are having which has been fixed in 4.0 and zeus issue with any version above bfg 4.3.1 it was having so I'm hearing . don't know I do very little beta testing these day i could have done the beta . check this out https://litecointalk.org/index.php?topic=20477.0 how to compile it http://blog.rastating.com/mining-dogecoin-with-a-zeusminer-blizzard-and-a-raspberry-pi/and this how you load into minera 3.8 or wait for 4.0 https://github.com/michelem09/minera If you want use any other miner software on Ubuntu (or any other system architecture) you need to compile it and put the binary file in "minera-bin/" directory. maybe try this for the driver sudo ldconfig lsusb if that doesn't work this ls -l /dev/ttyUSB* I don't think this will work at all for any zeus sudo apt get hidapi wrong driver i might be wrong . These should be the right packages for zeus or all you need for 5.0. sudo apt-get -y install git-core build-essential autoconf automake libtool pkg-config libcurl4-gnutls-dev libjansson-dev uthash-dev libncursesw5-dev libudev-dev libusb-1.0-0-dev libevent-dev libmicrohttpd-dev libc-bin again I might be wrong it worked for me .

I see they are not going to sell anymore. Thanks for sharing the information. However, I already paid for one, so I want to find out when I will get it. I did not buy direct from Bitmain. I planned to, but they sold out the first day before I woke up! ![Sad](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/sad.gif) I live in a timezone 14 hours behind Shenzhen. In the future, I will not sleep! ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) I bought the L1 from bitmainantminer.com, and they also sold out quickly. When I purchased, they said delivery in December. Now the site has "Shipping in January", but I have not received any information from the reseller. exalt, i tired to stress that, that on there US site it did say shipping in DEC then one day it changed to shipping in Jan 2015, i Honestly thought more saw that . then got called all kinds of stuff . So i let it go. BTW that is BITMAIN US site you bought from when you ordered it, it should have directed linked you to there main site , used there paypal account or something like that but you did buy direct from bitmain just on the US site . This is how you know it is + other marks on that site . © 2014 Bitmain Antminer. All rights reserved and read the Terms of Sale to confirm it . ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) .. hope that helped some . I do not think that is true. Bitmain Antminer is trying to look like the same company, but they are a reseller. I say this because I bought an S2 from bitmainantminer.com, and when the S4 came out, I did not get a coupon. (But I still should have. I was/am very pissed at bitmainantminer.com because of this.) The real Bitmain is "Bitmain Tech". Their copyright is "Copyright © Bitmain Tech Ltd 2013-2014". And, the S4 sales page lists bitmainantminer.com as a Partner. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fs25.postimg.org%2Fcg9op6rin%2FSNAG_1221.png&t=663&c=EfrlOULVXwXawA) Plus, Bitmain Antminer has very poor customer service. They never respond to my emails. I have sent them numerous emails, and they only responded 1 time. I was asking about S4 coupons and they said "They think I will get one and they will look into it." Never heard from them again! Too bad I had already ordered the L1. I will never buy from them again. I only bought the L1 there because Bitmain Tech sold out. I called that Number had a S 3 replaced from them at the US site , it is btimain in US ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) .. they did do a cross shipment for me with a brand new S 3 . ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) . take it any way you like it is them i think some one else on the Bitcoins forums in one of the S3 threads confirmed it. i do beve it was sushi . any way just trying to help. I do hope you get one or a refund . i mean that . also if I'm not mistaken copy rights are not all ways the same i have at least three of my self for songs i wrote a long time ago that went no were under the same name . with diff dates etc . i did some thing similar my self you wont see me say much about I'm hoping i get . I went against my own rules and did a per order but you won't see me complain about it was my own fault if I lose the money . They have been active according to there face book https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=890326.new#new just not sure why no updates yet on the L1 that's not like them . GL.

Hello guys, a couple of announcements: 1) a Help page is ready on getminera.com website, you can find the most used configurations for your miner, I hope it can be helpful http://getminera.com/help2) Minera 0.4.0 is ready! Probably this week I will push the final code, so stay tuned! Nice man . tip thu just a tip most 80 chips should stay at 800 unless there mod volted if that's the setting for the 80 chip which it Polly is . sense the others from Gridseed are kind of zeus knock off (G-Black Miner etc ) sense they partnered up ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) .but i see for the 5 chip no idea on them i never wasted any money on them to outdated. My bad meant 800 was half a sleep when i made that post .

bitmain is much more trust worthy than any of these other companies
Yeah, the company we are making pre-order IS ALWAYS the best. Otherwise we would not chose it, right? Bitmain is better than KnCminer, better than Spoondelies and better than Bitfurry. I wish i could believe it. WTF show me one post were they did not make there dead line , or did not keep there word that is valid. i can show you were they have replaced some products and they did not have to . etc etc . I don't work for them . I m not taking up for them etc . they do what they say and DEC is not over yet . and they can very well ripe all the per orders off . I hope they don't for your sake and others . but it can happen and may not ,you all may end up waiting till FEB, why i said worry then . sigh . I don't trust Knc and never will SPO no idea imo there products are not the best and Bitburry we all know how that went . I could show you MULTIPLE threads, but then that would be me spoon-feeding you. go and do some actual research before asking others to do it for you! BITMAIN SUCKS!! I guess if you say so do they all SUCK to you ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) . I need to let this go i got caught in the trap . cya.

400$ ? that miner worth like 30$ ... lol ..
Where did you find for only 30$? I also need to literally double the final price when looking for a miner to buy because of import duties. he may mean the 5 chip one which doesn't even come close to 5.6 MH ,that's about the going price or less atm for one of those.

Yes they are not worth it at all.
You can buy one, use it for a few months and then sell it asap.
Problem with eBay is many buyers will send it back after 45 days for a full refund when they realise the low ROI
I'm not to worried i had it set for 30 days in the US and this guy knew it all most had no value. I don't sell to anyone out side the US to be safe. the one i did sell was a H x3 i asked the guy if he got it even thu ups showed he did . he gave no feed back at all it has 10 days left in returns, I'm sweating that one.

Hi, im using Minera v0.3.8 with 1 hurricane x3 connected to a Pi with cgminer dmaxl, i would like to know if it is possible to add one different device like a blizzard and run them together on the same instance of Minera? i know its working under windows using this kind of command line : cgminer.exe --scrypt -o stratum+tcp://bitcointalk.org:3333 -u stef942 -p x --scan-serial //./COM3 --scan-serial //./COM4 --zeus-options //./COM3,6,328;//./COM4,64,330; --no-submit-stale
it is possible to do same under Minera? Thanks for your help Yes you can, change the COMX with /dev/ttyUSBX like so: --scan-serial /dev/ttyUSB0, refer to the related README https://github.com/dmaxl/cgminer/or some thing like this sense your using Linux in the PI --scrypt --zeus-chips 64 --zeus-clock 330 --scan-serial zeus:auto --zeus-chips 6 --zeus-clock 328 --scan-serial zeus:auto --scrypt --zeus-chips 64 --zeus-clock 330 --zeus-chips 6 --zeus-clock 328 --scan-serial zeus:auto both ways should work i had the above lines working with Dmax when i was looking for which miner worked best for me + the way mich said .

I guess at least someone has received his L1 because difficulty on Scrypt-N coins has jumped to sky ..
mullvads is right the titan with a firmware update can do all most any Scrypt i read in a review on there site and some place else .

bitmain is much more trust worthy than any of these other companies
perhaps in your limited experience. i have bought from most of them, and bitmain is a distant 3rd (at best) lying, extorting, ignoring, confusing, disorienting, passing your problems off onto uninformed wannabe uniformed bullies, do not make you trustworthy. at all. they merely lump you in with every other manufacturer out there... bar one! Customer service revolves around blaming the customers and letting the customer fix bitmain faulty equipment, allthough if the HW is good, bitmain is great. What I really liked is the no bulsshit delivery, right on or before time, everytime! I have to agree i have yet to have one issue with bitmain in any way . i have with zeus and some others . it's not the end of DEC yet bitmain might just amaze them . as far as it reads no set date it just ships in DEC this year . i know some what how they feel with what zeus did and that other one who now wont sell to the public at all and plan to mine for them self which is fine but they used the public imo . to get what they wanted and i hope it back fires on them . i think the reason they wont make it any more no profit in it for them like with bitcoins .

Thank you!
Anyway I haven't much fun with my X6. It became SICK 4-5 times every day. I tried it on differebt frequency values (from 230 to 258), I tried different COM port settings...
How can I make it run normally?.. Is there any remedy to avoid such a SICKing?..
Do anyone know how to make X6 mine with newer cgminer/bfgminer? When I try to start cgminer 4.3.5, it can't connect to Zeus (there's something about permissions or something like that), bfgminer also can't work normally (but at least it can conenct to the miner...).
Or use this it actually works better then 4.3.5 https://litecointalk.org/index.php?topic=20477.0 if you don't mind command line stuff . and the lines to use are or put into minera once minera is fixed . -–scrypt -S all --set-device zeus:clock=240 --set-device zeus:chips=256 --set-device zeus:read=200 for BFG > its for a firmware bug some of them have –set zus:ignore_golden_nonce=1 you may have to adjust the chip down a lot if you get a lot of HW errors some of them may be off a little . The read is adjust able on all zeus as far as i know 200 to 250 . or set it to auto . those setting are for the TX6 i have four zeus miners atm they all work great on westhash just waiting on some word on the L1 .' I can Polly set up 5.0 or had it working in one of the UI's on a PI . but it still has issue with the cap , drop or power drain in UIs But works great as a command line which i hate using so I'll wait . from zeus site on the HW errors https://zeusminer.com/forums/topic/lightning-x6-hw-errors/ For the sick issue if you use windows http://coinmyne.com/software/cgwatcher/ you can set it to restart them .

Hi michellem
My ZEUS thunder X6 did not work with v 3.0.8
Under DMax and --scrypt --scan-serial zeus:auto --zeus-chips 128 --zeus-clock 240 it works but with 100% HW with any clock I set
Under BFGminer and -S zus:all --set zus:chips=128 --set zus:ignore_golden_nonce=1 --set zus:clock=240 --scrypt it is working but any pool does not recognize it
Where the problem lies?
mine does but i had to use this https://litecointalk.org/index.php?topic=20477.0 in place of the BFG in minera now I to am waiting, i love this UI nothing is better imo that Ive found i had to go back to minera and load in BFG 4.3.1 for it work right two days ago while i wait from this https://github.com/NVReaver/ZoomHash-Pi-Software I saw some rally strange stuff loading into it when i used that . like other machines hashing at 00000 and id reboot etc there back so i don't use that .but do minera atm with this in it https://litecointalk.org/index.php?topic=20477.0 sense i cant get it to work right in any version of minera. or just about any thing else with out a lot of work and wasted time. BTW might want to try this -S all --set-device zus:clock=240 --set-device zus:chips=128 --set-device zus:read=200 --set zeus:ignore_golden_nonce=1 --queue 9999 try the --scrypt setting in minera to see if that helps any and you can use the -s all setting but i don't i feel more in control not using it . i sty at like 5.01% / 0.91% Error/Rejected rates in minera but i also use the above BFG 4.3.1. . 5.0 works in command line mode ok but i hate that way . and seems after using it in a UI after 10 hours the power drain cap or drop what ever you want to call it starts up . For Dmax try one of these if you didn't # Using libusb ./cgminer --scrypt --zeus-chips your chip set --zeus-clock 328 # Direct serial I/O, auto-detect ports (Linux only) ./cgminer --scrypt --zeus-chips your chip set --zeus-clock 328 --scan-serial zeus:auto # Direct serial I/O, manual port specification ./cgminer --scrypt --zeus-chips your chip set --zeus-clock 328 --scan-serial /dev/ttyUSB0 \ --scan-serial /dev/ttyUSB1 --scan-serial /dev/ttyUSB2 Have you tried taking it a part and cleaning it up and re pasting the hash boards with something like MX -4 http://www.ebay.com/itm/170865953254?_trksid=p2059210.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT but be very care full thing on the boards tend to come off super easy . . check your wires make sure there not getting to hot if they are use a fan or the other way which is a pain but i did it and rewire it, no more hot wires for me . oyea turn one of three fan in so it is pushing into the case and have the other two pull out the air . i read some place on zeus site not sure how true it is max hw error means the boards need to have the paste re applied some slipped by Q and A applied wrong .

Its already 1st of december, hopefully they ship soon before the difficulty increase again...
That would be nice.. even nicer would be some kind of update from bitmain himself We're waiting for internal updates from engineering as well as to final dates. [ps I don't monitor this thread so you'll have to 'fetch' me] Thank you very much for the update finally something ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) You can blame me. I created this new thread and Bitmain did not know about it until I contacted them, which I should have done when I created the thread. I had to create this thread in a different area than Bitmain is used to monitoring. Remember that the L1 is Bitmain's first Altcoin miner. Sorry guys. And thanks to Dogie for posting a reply. and you would think the Hrad ware would be with the hardware regard less what it mines hardware is still hardware . ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) . like you said BItmian would look under hardware and a lot others would . why not just make a alt coin forum with the hardware forum but that's me .
