3) Went to GitHub and clicked on the comments. Then cut and pasted the coding in the picture below to "driver-futurebit.c", saved and closed.
 

Yeah that's not going to do anything for you. You need to clone that branch of the git tree and then compile a new binary. I don't use Macs or Windows so I can't comment on exactly how to do that process on them.

So I've updated with the new coding that you have posted but I'm still running into problems. When I initially boot BGFminer it starts up fine and runs all day with no problems. The moment I add a pool to switch to, it gets hung up and flashes yellow. I'm literally stuck mining one pool. I've tried everything and cant figure it out. I'm operating on OSX 10.13.2.





Can tell by your version number at the top that isn't the latest code, you're running code from Nov 14th. How did you git/compile it?

Here's something, I had to reboot my router this morning, on internet restore, I had to restart My MLD BFGminer exe's. I know this is more of a BFG question but just in case someone here has a solution, is there a way to set the MLD BFG to auto resume on internet restore? Current BFG is the 5.4.2-34 futurebit provided to run with MLDs.

Possibly fixed by the newer code if you can compile from the git tree.

I'd imagine you just need to modify your batch file so that it only points at the correct serial port instead of all, then the bogus one won't be showing there.

y is only one of my mdls working


only have 1 miner


So which is it?
26  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Official FutureBit Moonlander 2 Driver and Support Thread on: December 14, 2017, 04:19:20 AM



said it runs stable at 800 on presets   its all set to default 600 speed and all



Still doesn't mean you have enough power either. Have you ran them individually?
27  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Official FutureBit Moonlander 2 Driver and Support Thread on: December 14, 2017, 04:03:17 AM


y is only one of my mdls working on yours it shows both r hashing i just plugged it in and this is what i noticed




 

error im getting

Because one of yours has 100% hardware errors. Try lowering the speed first. If that works then try raising core voltage some at the speed you are using now.
28  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Official FutureBit Moonlander 2 Driver and Support Thread on: December 13, 2017, 10:25:15 PM


Ahm, yes, itīs ancient hardware indeed. But itīs what I have and it consumes very little power, about 10W.

It has just 512MB RAM and therefore W7 should not be supported.

So no other XP users here? Really?



Any good reason to not run Linux on it?

My knowlage is under average but I don't think this stick can do much more. Pushing it that hard, with all your equipment (hub, ext cooling), I'm sure u are equipped enough to measure somehow ur temps, because as I undestood it from last few posts, it matters alot. Maybe even with ext fan its too hot (or both of them). I am just guessing.  But if you are complaining because you feel cheated somehow because you expected 5.8-5.9 I have no answer to that.  Max I saw was about 5.80 on one post showing "simulation" or something like that. I am getting 4.40 @796, one piece, no hub, in 3.0 laptop port and I don't feel cheated btw., but respect everyones questions and feelings.

No, don't feel cheated at all, that's just the most I am able to get out of them. I don't think any cooling problem or I should start seeing excessive hardware errors.

I remeber something like "...it can go up to 6 mhs if u can cool it....".

I don't see that much. With external cooling and running at the max frequency of 954mhz, both of mine are doing ~5.45Mh/s.
31  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Official FutureBit Moonlander 2 Driver and Support Thread on: December 12, 2017, 06:27:59 AM

I'm trying to run at 852 freq. Not sure if I have the right voltage.

There's no universal answer for the voltage, there will be some variance from one stick to another. You need to raise the core voltage until the hardware error rate is at an acceptable level. I didn't even actually measure it, just adjusted it upward until the errors came down. In my case both sticks needed the core voltage pot rotated approx 90 degrees clockwise to achieve an acceptable error rate when operating at 954mhz as you can see here:

For your 852mhz you won't need to turn the pots nearly as much, probably less than 45 degrees.

Fyi guys, this hub will definitely for four moonlanders.  It should be able to power four as well, just need to get my hands on a few more to test out the power.


Are you making an apples to oranges comparison maybe, focused on the amperage but not the voltage? That says the PS is 5V 4A, which is only 20W. Can't see that being anywhere near enough for 4 unless they are running at a very low frequency.
33  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: FutureBit Moonlander 2 USB Hubs Thread on: December 11, 2017, 02:26:03 PM


Here's 11 of them running on a Sipolar hub

 

Would help to know what speed you are able to run them at on that hub.
34  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Official FutureBit Moonlander 2 Driver and Support Thread on: December 11, 2017, 10:31:59 AM


edit.. it took forever to compile on the rpi.. it seems to be working tho. ill see if they need restarted.

Not sure what options you are using for configure, but probably compile fastest with:
./configure --disable-other-drivers --enable-scrypt --enable-futurebit --disable-sha256d
Also you're more than likely using a quad core rpi so you should do make -j4
My single core atom does the make in 51 seconds, I bet you can do it faster than that.
35  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Official FutureBit Moonlander 2 Driver and Support Thread on: December 11, 2017, 06:44:15 AM
changes are already pushed to my GitHub for anyone that dosent want to wait and can compile on their own.

Thanks! New code running here.
36  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: FutureBit Moonlander 2 USB Hubs Thread on: December 10, 2017, 10:17:03 PM
Thanks for the reviews.  For the USB hubs that have dedicated power charging ports, has anyone tried a usb y power injector cable to use the power from the charging port and the data from one of the data ports?  Like this one:

https://www.amazon.com/Black-Female-Extension-Mobile-CableCC/dp/B00ZUE6PVE/ref=sr_1_6?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1512917299&sr=1-6&keywords=usb+hard+disk+cable+power

I think I'll get the 10 port Anker as it can already support 3 and probably three more with cables like above.



I ordered those exact cables yesterday, planning on trying them when a couple more sticks get here in the coming days.
37  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Official FutureBit Moonlander 2 Driver and Support Thread on: December 10, 2017, 10:03:48 PM
Arent you guys worried about heat? Even at 600 the cooling thing at the bottom gets pretty hot no?

I didn't think they were very hot at 600. At 900 they are hot, but they keep chugging away happily doing 5.1Mh/s.
38  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Official FutureBit Moonlander 2 Driver and Support Thread on: December 10, 2017, 05:48:58 AM
@jstefanop

 Why are we unable to setup failover pools?

Seems to be working here.
39  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: FutureBit Moonlander 2 USB Hubs Thread on: December 09, 2017, 10:05:52 AM
the anker hub it says only 3 of the ports supply the 2.1a?

also im not real fond of my pluggable hub i just got.. same as the one you have.

it has some auto switching power thing and sometimes it just turns off and you have to push the button to turn it back on.. Sad



Those 3 ports are charging only ports, so not using them. Clearly getting pretty good amperage on the others so far to be running stable at 900mhz. HW error rate is consistently lower on the Anker than the Pluggable also, so I guess this is an indication the power is cleaner.
40  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: FutureBit Moonlander 2 USB Hubs Thread on: December 09, 2017, 08:06:46 AM
Trying out a few hubs from Amazon here. I only have 2 sticks so far.

First this Orico: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B071FNC3VY/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Was only able to run both at 600mhz, any higher and at least one would stop hashing after a few minutes.

Next the Pluggable: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00RM5OF70/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
While using this one I initially ran one stick at a time while upping voltage until they were nearly error free at 900mhz. Then I tried both at 900mhz. Every time one would stop hashing after a couple of minutes.

Finally this Anker: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00VDVCQ84/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Rock solid with both running at 900mhz. I wish I had more of my stick orders in to see how it does with more sticks on it, but I will soon enough.
