I'm trying to get an old Butterfly jalapeno up & running on a Pi. I have 4.9.0 compiled with --enable-bflsc. When I launch CGminer, it even claims to see the device. But I can't figure out how to tell it what the device ID is to enable it. I've tried all the combinations of Bus, Device & ID that it says it sees, but can't get any of them to enable. Can anybody point out what I'm missing? Bus 1 Device 4 ID: 0403:6014 Butterfly Labs BitFORCE SHA256 SC inactive
1 total known USB device
Hotplug interval:5
0 USB devices, 0 enabled, 0 disabled, 0 zombie

Bug report: For the past couple versions, the "Download" link after clicking on the Check for Update button doesn't work. I just updated to 1.1.6a & can't test as I'm now at the latest version.

I use Bitcoin Miners In Tray https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=149442.0. My old Nvidia 285 is more or less running all the time with no monitor attached. My ATI HD 7950 has it's priority bounced up & down depending on weather or not I'm using the computer. Any game .exe's that get launched cause the 7950 to stop mining until I'm done gaming. Each video card has it's own instance of CGminer. |

Nope, she's fully aware of it & what it's doing.
Although at the moment CGminer is throwing hardware errors on her system (With or without BMIT), so it's been offline for a little bit.

I started getting the following errors on my wife's Windows 7 x64 gaming system. Additionally Slush's pool reports no activity from that miner in about the same amount of time. It's got an ATI/AMD HD 6950 in it I believe. It may have started after a driver upgrade, but I've since tried a couple newer (including the latest beta) driver versions. I keep the drivers updated on my gaming system & HD 7950 (currently running Catalyst 13.3, the latest beta) up to date & haven't had any issues. There aren't any obvious errors or graphics glitches showing up when she does any gaming, so I'm a little suspicious of it being an actual problem with the video card. Any thoughts? My only remaining thought is uninstall the video drivers & try to figure out what the old one she had been running, then revert to it. cgminer version 2.11.4 - Started: [2013-04-17 23:00:31]

It took me a while to get the config tweaked the way I want (and more to update to the current revisions), but this app is so kick ass it's worth it. I can easily game & use my PC while letting BMIT wrangle the miners in the background without any effort. Handy for me, really important if I want to mine on my wife's PC.  |

Rather newbie here...
Is there a way to get one instance of CGminer to mine on both my old Nvidia 285 & new AMD HD7850 at the same time? After playing around with things for a while, I ended up just running 2 instances, one for each card. Running on my Windows gaming system, if that matters.
I created a worker for each instance (and the instance on my wife's machine). Is it best practices to assign a unique worker to each instance?

My just over 4 year old Nvidia 285 is pulling aroung 60Mhash/s
I just bought a new Sapphire HD 7950 for gaming, If I delude myself enough I can justify it with the around 500Mhash/s it's pulling & may some day come close to paying itself off... Probably not, especially with ASICs coming, but it was a good excuse for my gaming habit.

The Stratum protocol is mostly replacing the getwork protocol. It's a more efficient protocol, in terms of server load & bandwith.

The big advantage of a distributed system. Even if one member goes down, the system as a whole can keep functioning.

The fork has resolved itself by now, correct?

I just rationalized getting a new HD 7950 for gaming with bitcoin mining. I've had an old Nivdia 285 that I had running fine with CGminer, albeit relatively slowly. Now that I got my new ATI card online I can get either the ATI ("gpu-platform" : "1") or the old Nvidia running with CGminer, but can't get it to run both. Do I have to launch separate instances of CGminer with different configs & gpu-platform settings, or is there a way to run both via the same instance?
If I have to run 2 instances, would I have to create 2 workers for the pool I'm currently in or can I just use the same worker login for both instances?
