More 2 cents from me (hope to know more later):

The 5-chip units use the Apple CDC drivers, not FTDI drivers. Only the 1-chip units seem to use FTDI.
Ah, damn, what about pre 10.9?
CDC not FTDI, right

what can i do to test/confirm this?

OK,

so exactly what i did.

removed the previous gridseed5
unplug my miner and plug it back
run sudo kextload -b com.FTDI.driver.FTDIUSBSerialDriver at terminal
start gridseed6
GPU miner pops up automatically. Close it.
Click on cgminer and insert the manual flag - --gridseed-options=baud=115200,freq=600,chips=5,modules=1,usefifo=0,btc=16 --hotplug=0
Check on pool settings.. click save
and then START...

unfortunately still getting the same error
Can you please try this version with the drivers unloaded?

Hi,

Unfortunately unloading the drivers did not make any difference on cgminer.

@Anonymailer,

While the pleasure is mine man, you helped me get this up and running! Otherwise, this would be an expensive mistake.. LOL

BTW, cgminer still insist not to work. After unload/load the FTDI driver from nwolls it didn't make any difference.

Still getting the same error.

FWIW, i am getting 393 KH/s harsh rate running at freq-800 with CPU Miner.

I will meddle more with cgminer when i have time later in the day.

Thanks for everything!

@ ehwwong I'd be interested to know whether the cgminer works with the FTDI drivers installed and not unloaded but I suspect the problem is my fix to the driver not working properly so I'll have to look in to that some more. It's not that it doesn't see the device, it is showing up there, it's just not working  Sad

Did you run CPU successfully before or after unloading the drivers and had you installed the FTDI driver from here:
http://ftdichip.com/Drivers/VCP.htm
?

@BrandonMcPherson I suspect the issue with CPU miner is a driver issue more likely than a VM issue if it's showing up to any extent in the cgminer log. What driver setup were you using, what manual flags and what does the CPU miner output say?

Hi,

In fact CPU Miner runs before and after unloading the drivers.. weird? Is there any command i can check that the VCP driver is still loaded? Or maybe the kexunload did not work correctly on my iMAC?

Yes, i install it from http://ftdichip.com/Drivers/VCP.htm

You want me to just reload the VCP driver again?
7  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: The official MacMiner thread [BTC/LTC-CPU/GPU/FPGA/ASIC] on: March 07, 2014, 05:09:30 AM
I wasn't able to duplicate ehwwong's success with CPUminer, and CGminer returned the same "failed to initialise (incorrect device?)" error he saw.

I suspect my CPUminer issue is related to my virtual machine Linux installation still claiming the device, so don't make too much of that. I'll fiddle with it some more. Smiley

Brandon,

Did you setup the manual flag - --freq=600 --gc3355=/dev/cu.usbmodemfdxxxx  ?

CGminer proofs to be more tricky,

already ran the kextunload command and restart macminer but still getting:

It seems that CGMiner cannot detect the gridseed miner... is there anyway to force detection like CPU Miner where i can tell it to look under /dev/cu.usbmodemfd1421 ?

Experiment with manual flag freq from 600 ~ 800 yields the same result..

--gridseed-options=baud=115200,freq=600,chips=5,modules=1,usefifo=0,btc=16 --hotplug=0

Oooh sounds like it's working then! Thanks guys!

To check your work go here
http://pool.fabulouspanda.co.uk:9327/static/graphs.html?Day

and look for your LTC address. I'm hoping
LfTBLS7pycKpxkVu5XYYhAxnVqwSHUabRX

is you?

Yeah, CPU miner is definitely working now. And LfTBLS7pycKpxkVu5XYYhAxnVqwSHUabRX is me  ...   Smiley

Trying to get cgminer to work now. I suspect it has to be the manual flag, will try to dig more.
10  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: The official MacMiner thread [BTC/LTC-CPU/GPU/FPGA/ASIC] on: March 07, 2014, 04:26:01 AM

odd that you have accepts but 0KH! Does the pool website show the work yet? any more detail in the log?

Did you run the kextunload command since your last restart the last time you ran cgminer?
[/quote]

Hey, i am actually still on the legacy http://pool.fabulouspanda.co.uk:9327 pool, how do i find the work there?

The CPU Miner log window is not allowing me to copy/paste the log.

Hmmm i don't remember, but i better restart everything and try the cgminer again.

11  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: The official MacMiner thread [BTC/LTC-CPU/GPU/FPGA/ASIC] on: March 07, 2014, 04:00:37 AM
OK, i think we are getting some where..

on gridseed5, CPU Miner... after setting up manual flag - --freq=600 --gc3355=/dev/cu.usbmodemfd1421

i am getting this:

Dispatching new work for GC3355 LTC Core ....

And i can see the Accepted: 3 of 3 100% !!!

ps: the KH/s is showing 0.00KH

Any luck with the CPU Miner?

I modified the driver for cgminer based on the reports on this version, the standard gridseed code doesn't compile on Mac OS so it's slightly modified by me
http://downloads.fabulouspanda.co.uk/MacMiner-gridseed5.zip

err, what manual flag should i be using for CPU miner?

On Gridseed5, CG Miner, manual flag -  --gridseed-options=baud=115200,freq=600,chips=5,modules=1,usefifo=0,btc=16 --hotplug=0

please update to this version:
http://downloads.fabulouspanda.co.uk/MacMiner-gridseed4.zip
Which fixes that issue, sorry about that! I think the problem with cgminer is that this version wants you to unload any serial usb drivers from the system so try running

sudo kextunload -b Library/Extensions/SiLabsUSBDriver.kext && sudo kextunload -b Library/Extensions/SiLabsUSBDriver64.kext && sudo kextunload -b Library/Extensions/FTDIUSBSerialDriver.kext && kextunload -b com.silabs.driver.CP210xVCPDriver && kextunload -b com.silabs.driver.CP210xVCPDriver64 && kextunload -b com.FTDI.driver.FTDIUSBSerialDriver && kextunload -b com.silabs.driver.CP210xVCPDriver && kextunload -b com.silabs.driver.CP210xVCPDriver64 && kextunload -b com.FTDI.driver.FTDIUSBSerialDriver && kextunload -b Library/Extensions/SiLabsUSBDriver.kext && kextunload -b Library/Extensions/SiLabsUSBDriver64.kext && kextunload -b Library/Extensions/FTDIUSBSerialDriver.kext

in Terminal first then start cgminer again!

after entering the above in terminal, i get this: (kernel) Kext Library/Extensions/SiLabsUSBDriver.kext not found for unload request.
Failed to unload Library/Extensions/SiLabsUSBDriver.kext - (libkern/kext) not found.

Could you try the CPU miner set to litecoin and see whether that works please? I need to recompile the cgminer and cpuminer for this as gridseed have updated their versions, hopefully we'll have better luck with that!

Hi,

Try CPU Miner and set to litecoin and it did not work. Encounter this.

Ok, i was meddling around a bit and i came across the fabulous panda pool option and i went ahead to give it a go.

and it somehow sprung to life!

Still not getting any work done though.. LOL

Hi Anonymailer,

Deleting the folder did the trick, i am able to start macminer again.

After entering my pool information and password, i started CG Miner and encounter the following:

2014-03-07 01:03:12] /Users/*/Documents/Temproray/MacMiner.app/Contents/Resources/gridcgminer3.5/bin/cgminer: -c: JSON decode of file '/Users/*/Library/Application Support/MacMiner/bfgurls.conf' failed
 unable to open /Users/*/Library/Application Support/MacMiner/bfgurls.conf: No such file or directory

 unable to open /Users/*/Library/Application Support/MacMiner/bfgurls.conf: No such file or directory                   


Did i miss any steps?

Thanks guys! The bfgminer update wasn't for the 5 chip devices unfortunately, but looking into things I think the cpuminer and cgminer I compiled for gridseed devices actually requires the same ftdi driver bfgminer does, unusually, so those may work with the bfgminer driver setup as opposed to the standard cgminer setup.

OK, as i said earlier, i am totally new to this... so as expected, i encounter my first issue... Sad

For the record, i am running OSX 10.9.1

VCP driver installed successfully from here - http://www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/VCP.htm

After installing the driver and running ls -l /dev/cu.*

I noticed a new device was detected - crw-rw-rw-  1 root  wheel   18,  11 Mar  6 23:48 /dev/cu.usbmodemfd1421

I am not sure whether this is the grid seed 5 miner.. but anyway, i did a test when i plug out the USB cable, it disappear.. so it must be it.   Smiley

Then I downloaded the macminer here - http://downloads.fabulouspanda.co.uk/MacMiner-gridseed2.zip

I went out and sign up a new pool from https://www.wemineltc.com and enter the following pool setting:  stratum+tcp://hk2.wemineltc.com:3336

Not sure what is the username/password, so i left it empty. 

And right after i saved, the FPGA window pop-up along with some error messages which i failed to copy down.. and then i panic.. basically i went on and start EVERY miner... and this went bad...

I can't quit the program and i have to force quite the macminer... then when i tried to start it... i got the "MacMiner Quit Unexpectedly" window

Process:         MacMiner [4575]

Sad Sad

What do i need to do now?
