Fantastic! can't wait to test it.

Great work.

Ok, I am just lost! I have no idea why 5.0 will not work for my asicminer tubes! The previous versions (4.1) have all worked but not 5.0!

I have them connected via usb to the rpi. But no matter what it still says no devices found.
I have both the superuser option and the detect all options enabled
I have tried CGminer after compiling it with the --enable-blockerupter (which has worked with previous versions) but not working with 5.0
I have NEVER been able to get bfgminer to work on minera. It never finds the devices either
I have tried a fresh install of 5.0 and then compiled it twice. Still no devices found.

Is there something I am not doing? Do I need to do anything so it will read the usb? Do I need to put in certain settings I did not need to before (extra options) or to get bfgminer working.

Any help would be appreciated Im pulling my hair out trying to get this figured out!

Well, you should firstly try to remove the autodetect option (this should enable libusb detection). Then please can you tell me the exact hardware you are using? Can you find and paste a link to it? Because I'm not sure what you are trying to connect and I need more info about the HW before tell you something more.

EDIT: while I don't think it's a cgminer version problem this is the previous binary there was in Minera, you could try with this too (add it as custom miner or overwrite it as default one) https://github.com/michelem09/minera/blob/fa17a35255bdd7ba48569d0507dc0e9e4f788ecd/minera-bin/cgminer?raw=true

I tried disabling the autodetect option and that still didnt work.

I am not sure how to add the old binary for cg miner in to Minera (I wish I knew more about Linux). Can you explain how to do that?

I am running 2 Asicminer Tubes that are chained together and connected to the rpi using a usb/uart adapter (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=769570.0). I am using a rpi B (not sure if that matters) They worked with the previous version of Minera but cant be found with 5. I have never been able to get them to work with bfgminer, even though they are supposed to be compatible with it

Any help would be appreciated.

So, it's sure you need to re-build cgminer in 0.5.0 because --enable-blockerupter option isn't in the default build (it prevents others to be compiled).
Then did you do a "sudo make install" too after the "make" command? Try and reboot the Raspberry after that.

Just an update to this sub thread, My gc3355 is mining fine at Bitcoin.cz. The only item worth mentioning is it is not producing the full 11.25 Gh/s. Only 6-8 Gh/s which is the duel rate. So not sure if its a function of how its configured or something else. I'm not duel mining so would expect the full, or close to, 11.25 Gh/s

The only reason I mention it is because you said the next version of Minera may have this support. Hope the feed back is helpful.

michelem - I'm using a gridseed 5-chip gc3355. I would really like to dual or sha256 mine. Can I do that with minera and if so can you give a little direction. I've been working on it for a few days and not able to locate a solution.

thanks.

I answered a question like this a couple of days ago here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1057936.msg11349805#msg11349805

I hadn't time to test what I wrote, but I'll do it in few days and if everything works fine I'll add that cgminer fork to the next Minera release as built-in.

Great! Thanks. I'll test it for you this morning and report back.

EDIT: reporting "No local devices found". Tried:
--gridseed-options=baud=115200,freq=800,chips=5,modules=1,usefifo=0,btc=16

and

--gridseed-options=baud=115200,freq=800,chips=5,modules=1,usefifo=0,btc=16 --hotplug=0

Just tried it works very well without any option, just use "--retries 1" in manual setting and remember to enable "Miner superuser (root)" it needs it.

EDIT: There is "only" a problem with the stats, Minera can't collect API stats from that cgminer fork because it's really obsolete, I have to rewrite a couple of lines of code. I will add this in next release for sure, there are many folks around the net asking for this.

One more things, remember to enable the miner fan if you had removed/disabled it! Mining btc with gridseed needs more power and it will become very hot in few minutes.

Final command is: /var/www/minera/minera-bin/custom/cgminer-dual-gridseed --retries 1 -c /var/www/minera/conf/miner_conf.json
Where the miner_conf has only the pools config. This command doesn't display stats on Minera but it works to mine Bitcoin with Gridseeds. Stay tuned for full working version.



Not sure what I'm missing. Enabled root, and using:
--gridseed-options=baud=115200,freq=800,chips=5,modules=1,usefifo=0,btc=16 --retries 1

Still not detecting the device.

I am using  Minera to run GridSeed GS3355 and works great! I also have an Antminer S2 that I would like to have Minera manage as well. But I'm having trouble with the connection. I searched and all I could find are the links below. Unfortunately I still cannot connect.

http://leaserig.freshdesk.com/support/articles/1000106114-api-connect-direct-connect-antminer-s2

http://www.ramosresearch.com/weblog/entry/how-to-configure-antminer-s1-s2-s3-for-remote-api-access.html

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers.

This is the line to add to your cgminer.conf:

"api-allow":"W:127.0.0.1,W:192.168.1.0/24"

Of course this works for 192.168.1.0 LAN, change it for yours

If you are still in trouble please give us your conf file to look at.

I was preparing to post my conf files and as a precaution updated per your last post, Because I'm getting the spinning wheels after adding the S2. Note when only the local GridSeed gs3355 is configured Minera works fine.

After updating I added the S2. Spinning wheels as expected. But checked MobileMiner and the S2 is there and reporting correctly. So Minera must see it but not reporting stat's correctly.

What can I provide you with to help improve this already amazing system?

Report this please:

* got to the dashboard
* push ctrl+alt+i or click right mouse everywhere and click "Inspect element"
* click the "Console" tab
* refresh page
* give me the errors/screenshot

I need something like this:



I can also give you access to the equipment if that would help.
