1  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: [ANN] Bi•Fury | 5 GH/s USB Miner [IN STOCK!] {NEW YEAR SALE !} on: March 31, 2014, 08:46:43 PM
I still have issues with these and the Raspberry PI.

They are detected, and they mine for a while, on the 7-port d-link usb 2.0 powered hub. Then some of them die. (go ZOMBIE on cgminer) and disappear from lsusb.

Is this a power issue? They work fine on an anker usb 3.0 hub connected to my macbook pro.

I Had two bi*fury connected to the pi, working for some 20 minutes fine... then I connected a third. This happened:

2  Other / CPU/GPU Bitcoin mining hardware / SOLVED BFL mac error: BitForceSC detect failed to initialize (incorrect device?) on: January 11, 2014, 05:31:31 PM
I found out that if my Butterfly labs' miner refuses to be recognized by cgminer with the message BitForceSC detect (??:??) failed to initialise (incorrect device?),

For my macbook pro, the solution is to install the FTDI USB Serial Driver again. I have to do it every time I reconnect the device, but it works.

The drivers can be found here: http://www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/VCP.htm

i have multiple miners of different origins and working automatically

Turns out that bfgminer accepts multiple -S driver:all commands, even though it doesn't work that well.

cgminer recognizes the devices upon insertion, so everything is all right.

Now I have something like

working fine on my mac, but not on my minepeon.

I have some very strange problems with mine peon and wifi.

If I boot the pi with an ethernet cable, all fine. Both ethernet AND the wifi interface works without any problem.

BUT if I boot only with wifi, the machine does not answer to wifi at all, unless I try to scan it with fing (a network utility).

Something like this:

Do you see those moments when the machine actually answered? That's when I ran this command on another window:

sudo fing -s 192.168.10.147 -o text,console

It does that EVERY TIME. If I boot with ethernet, the wireless works perfectly (?). I don't know what else to do.

Firmware can be found at http://c-scape.nl/bi-fury/

According to the website, the LED should not turn on when you short-circuit it. All of mine do, so I don't know how to upgrade them.

On the webpage, you have the option of choosing which temperature is too much to turn the chips off. Mine apparently turns off around 78 degrees, but that can be bfgminer.

Did you figure out the meaning of the lights? When it's red or green?
6  Other / Beginners & Help / multiple drivers on command line on: January 09, 2014, 12:28:54 PM
Hello forum,

my question is simple: I have multiple miners of different origins (blue fury, butterflylabs, bi fury, etc). While I know how to add them all to bfgminer through the text-based interface, I don't know how to use all of them from the command line. The command

bfgminer -S bifury:all -S bfl:all -S bigpic:all ...

does not work. I don't know how to add multiple miners from the command line, so I can have a minepeon working automatically.


Any ideas?
