Well, I am not able to get the board running again: After make process, i tried to start cgminer with the following instructions: 1: --hexminerc-voltage 1060 --hexminerc-options 16:1400 error message: -bash: --hexminerc-voltage: command not found 2: sudo ./cgminer --hexminerc-voltage 1060 --hexminerc-options 16:1400 --set_default_to_c error message: [2013-12-26 15:19:19] ./cgminer: --set_default_to_c: unrecognized option 3: Cgminer only starts this way: sudo ./cgminer --hexminerc-voltage 1060 --hexminerc-options 16:1400 but only recognizing HEXa: http://www.bilder-upload.eu/upload/70126b-1388071301.jpgEdit: with the parameter sudo ./cgminer --hexminera-voltage 1120 --hexminera-options 16:1500
it starts mining for 5 seconds and the pi freezes i dont have a hex16A2... but u could try sudo ./cgminer --hexminera-voltage 1120 --hexminera-options 16:1500 --text-only --debug that should spit out loads of things... paste the full output here maybe something stands out... pi freezing also sounds like power issues.... how are you powering the pi? and are you providing enough power to the miners? |

Have we an update on this company? https://www.hashblaster.com/images/batch_hardware_delivery_big.jpgThe accompanying blog-type post says they took delivery of a bunch of hardware... but these boxes don't look like they've ever seen a shipping truck. The labels on a couple boxes are barely sticking to the box. Not to mention the randomness of the shipping label placement. Anyone that's worked around a shipping department knows this type of randomness doesn't usually happen. It looks like a bunch of fresh cardboard stacked to convince someone to send them btc for a preorder. anyone? They should have atleast bought self sticking paper to fake the labels... |

any idea what they'll be selling jupiters for?
Yes, well above ROI value |

sushi, How do I change multipool strategy? I like to try some of them (balance, rotate..).
can I just edit /etc/config/cgminer or possible cgminer-api command?
I try some but all failed.
u might need to hack /etc/init.d/cgminer |

... you can already switch or add pools using the cgminer api. edit /etc/config/cgminer original option api_allow 'W:127.0.0.1' change to option api_allow 'W:127.0.0.1,W:192.168.x.xxx' change "192.168.x.xxx" to the ip of your desktop or whatever computer u wanna control from... and then restart cgminer... What software are you using to remote control the api with? here is my "software" import socket, json
def cgminer_cmd(m, cmd):
sock = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
sock.connect((m, 4028))
sock.send(bytearray(json.dumps(cmd), 'utf-8'))
result = ''
chunk = sock.recv(64)
while (len(chunk) != 0):
result = result + str(chunk)
chunk = sock.recv(64)
sock.close()
return result[0:-1]
if __name__ == "__main__":
print cgminer_cmd("192.168.x.xx", {"command": "switchpool", "parameter": "1"})

How do you switch between pools? Also , is there an easier way to do that and add more pools? Maybe remote?
Yes there is a easier way, like using multiminer. But the current firmware with cgminer (3.4.5) has a bug so itwont let you connect to a proxy between the miner and the pool. This is fixed in cgminer 3.9 but then the firmware needs to be updated. You can read more about this bug here:https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=28402.msg4087361#msg4087361You can try compiling a new cgminer from source ( https://github.com/bitmaintech/cgminer) because this has the special bitmain settings but i had a problem that it keep referring to a USB device (the U1 miner). So i have to wait untill Bitmain or Sushi comes in and releases a new firmware that dont have this cgminer bug... I hope they release it ASAP because i dont want to login into my AntMiner everytime to change pools.... HELP PLZ!!!!you can already switch or add pools using the cgminer api. edit /etc/config/cgminer original option api_allow 'W:127.0.0.1' change to option api_allow 'W:127.0.0.1,W:192.168.x.xxx' change "192.168.x.xxx" to the ip of your desktop or whatever computer u wanna control from... and then restart cgminer... |

FWIW, the question in the topic is confused. The question shouldn't be "600 GH/s how long is it good for?" it should be "0.6J/GH how long is it good for?" since absolute hashrate has nothing at all to do with hour long you can usefully mine with it, but power consumption sure does. Any answer on the lifetime will ultimately be mostly conjecture, but at least its a sensible question once framed in terms of power.
Talking about J/GH introduces another variable... BTC:USD price.. since power is billed in $. If BTC price suddenly for no apparent reason becomes $100000/BTC ... then i guess even mining on CPU would be cost effective in terms of J/GH |

I built the patched version (for the hex bitfury but doesnt matter same patch) on pi without any issues.
Are u sure the patch u used matches the exact cgminer commit?
Whats the full name of the .patch file u used? and where did u download cgminer from?
I built it with the following steps posted in another thread: 1. sudo aptitude update
2. sudo aptitude install libudev-dev libusb-1.0-0-dev libfox-1.6-dev autotools-dev autoconf automake libtool libncurses-dev yasm curl libcurl4-openssl-dev libjansson-dev pkg-config uthash-dev make pkg-config yasm Code:
1. mkdir cgminer
2. cd cgminer
3. wget https://github.com/ckolivas/cgminer/archive/v3.8.1.tar.gz
4. tar -xvf v3.8.1.tar.gz
5. cd cgminer-3.8.1
6. wget https://www.dropbox.com/s/5suzudn2t06087u/2e9afa38e39678a5dc5bf8be6d20baf1849b548c.patch
7. patch -p1 < 2e9afa38e39678a5dc5bf8be6d20baf1849b548c.patch
8. ./autogen.sh --enable-avalon --enable-bitfury --enable-hexminera --enable-hexminerb --enable-hexminerc
9. make I also tried this with cgminer 3.8.5 and this patch (afe7710858e4ce28bb60f6ae6e167a18d687634f.patch) Furthermore, I tried only using --enable-hexminerc So far I am always getting the same error. no u should use fetch from git. the patch filename is the commit id ur supposed to use Lets say you wanna use 2e9afa38e39678a5dc5bf8be6d20baf1849b548c.patch git clone https://github.com/ckolivas/cgminer.git
cd cgminer
wget https://www.dropbox.com/s/5suzudn2t06087u/2e9afa38e39678a5dc5bf8be6d20baf1849b548c.patch
git checkout 2e9afa38e39678a5dc5bf8be6d20baf1849b548c
patch -p1 < 2e9afa38e39678a5dc5bf8be6d20baf1849b548c.patch
./autogen.sh --enable-avalon --enable-bitfury --enable-hexminera --enable-hexminerb --enable-hexminerc
make
doing the git checkout thingy makes sure u r at the exact version the patch was made for. |

I received my board on friday, but I didn't manage to compile a running cgminer with patch on my raspberry pi, because it seems that the driver is not found while "make" process. So i installed Linux Mint on my HTPC and used 2GOODs precompiled version, which works fine at the moment, but the goal is to safe power and use the pi instead. Any ideas why it won't work with pi? I already tried different patches and versions of cgminer, but there is always the same error message: CC cgminer-usbutils.o
CC cgminer-driver-hexminerc.o
CCLD cgminer
cgminer-driver-hexminerc.o: In function `hexminerc_send_task':
/home/pi/cgminer/driver-hexminerc.c:72: undefined reference to `SHA256_K'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[2]: *** [cgminer] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/pi/cgminer'
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/pi/cgminer'
make: *** [all] Error 2 With what parameters do you guys start cgminer? My board is only hashing with 20GH/s at the moment. thanks in advance I built the patched version (for the hex bitfury but doesnt matter same patch) on pi without any issues. Are u sure the patch u used matches the exact cgminer commit? Whats the full name of the .patch file u used? and where did u download cgminer from? |

I have make 2 ~ round about $250/board, if anyone interested ~ All hardware have been assembled, including a Big Heatsink ~ ~~~
I can't really test it , Need to be setup properly for testing ...
Compiling a proper Cgminer ~ seem real difficult ~ !!
 ~~~ as currently its stuck @ -->result from CGMiner : --- ~ >>> KLN0:0 unknown work (a0:51be99bff) - ignored --- ~ >>> KLN0:0 unknown work (a1:92cv34ofe) - ignored --- ~ >>> KLN0:0 unknown work (a1:xxxxxxxxx) - ignored --- ~ >>> KLN0:0 unknown work (a2:xxxxxxxxx) - ignored Anyone know the reason ?? Problem solve would means cheaper on Hardware ~ Labour cost free ! For 1st 50G Need help compiling cgminer/bfgminer? shoot me a pm. ive done it many times on linux. Cant help with firmware problems. |

Hellow everyone. I am planning on preordering the butterfly labs 600 gh/s card that is shipping some time in February. I wanted to know how long that machine would be relevant and if there was a way to calculate the break even point. In short is it worth the investment eventhough it will be arriving next year?

So it seems Technobit hands them over to Speedy, and Speedy hands them over to DPD (or something like that). Downside is that both sites still state the package hasn't left Bulgaria yet  Anyway, I thought this information might be useful for some people here. I had no tracking number at all when my order went to "shipped", selected DPD shipping at checkout, but it came with Speedy stickers all over the box. Please state the date of your order that will help people know where they are in the order queue. I choose DPD, got tracking number which didnt work on DPD's site, but they worked on speedy's site http://www.speedy.bg/Having said that the *cough* tracking *cough* is totally useless, very delayed and the only status updates are : "Courier Pick-up", "Received in Office" and "Delivered". |

Making a related project with a .bit name, but alts.bit would suit better... maybe...

.1 to .4 for random times ranging from 5 mins to 1 hour about 4 to 5 times a day. (depends on mining setup)
Yes, I will pay upfront before any mining is done to any well known respected members or groups that are looking for a greater ROI then what they get from mining now.
I have about 600 GH/s i can point to you. I can set scripts to switch to and off your pools at pre-agreed times(given atleast 2 hrs in advance).... but would wither like money upfront or Escrow. If escrow it needs to be a notable pool with public stats. And oh, it needs to be atleast 2x of whatever is the BTC ROI of the day... |

Has anyone figured out how to keep the fan spinning at a higher RPM for increased cooling capacity?
Thanks
plug it into a power supply directly. Is the Ant ok running without a fan plugged into the header on the board? It wont see any RPM's. Has anyone tried this. My Ants are remote and I cant get to them right now to verify. Thanks Blade 2 does not have a problem with no fan... i dont see any reason why blade 1 would mind. |

just a heads up - the ip on that antminer should be 192.168.2.13 - the leading zero is not required, and you will not find the miner if you are looking for the ...013 IP 192.168.2.013 actually means 192.168.2.11 since it assumes ur typing the octet in octal and not decimal. So, them printing 192.168.2.013 instead of 192.168.2.13 is completely wrong... |

Posted to original thread asking for proof he was legit.
Post deleted.
Seems legit to me. Take my money!
Papamoi is the first(and probably only) person on my ignore list... A loong time ago when i was newb here i posted in a thread of his. Put in a lot of thought into the post and not trolling like usual  . He deleted the post without any word... Taught me a valuable lesson: Stay out of moderated topics. People opening moderated topics generally wanna scam you, or atleast think you are beneath them and don't deserve to have your thoughts aired on the forum. |

When companies take preorders or deposits,it means they are using your money to pay there staff and also buy parts,thats how buisness works. then mine with the devices for a bit for extra profit before shipping to customers.

I am happy to order as soon as I can get some rough estimates for cost  +1 .. cost and expected timeline |
|

shipping next week.
what is this thing again? like a raspberry pi but with a more powerful cpu?
its CPU is similar to the pi's... the difference is it has a co-processor thats really efficient at parallalizable things... so... for certain tasks it would kick the pi's(or even your computer's) butt big time but programs need to be written specifically to take advantage of this. |
