Now that I'm using (officially) the 0.2.3 version of MinePeon, hopefully for the next few months without need of saving a new full version to another SD, I do need some help, to automate the start of the LCD python2 cgminerLCDStats.py program.

I usually do the following commands, after a RPI reboot/restart and connecting to the RPI via PuTTY:

Quote
screen -S LCD
cd cgminerLCDStats
sudo python2 cgminerLCDStats.py
CTRL A + D

How can I automate it? Please don't forget I'm less than a noobie @ Linux. I don't know Linux! I'm a pure donkey...

Transactions must be included in a block to be properly completed. When you send a transaction, it is broadcast to miners. Miners can then optionally include it in their next blocks. Miners will be more inclined to include your transaction if it has a higher transaction fee.

First off, thanks for the update, loving the new setup.

One minor gripe I have (and I'm not sure how hard it is to fix) is that when using bfgminer, the hashrate average that is displayed in the status area at the top of the screen in "Advanced" is read from the 5s average instead of the total average. I'm not sure if this was intentional, but when I hover the mouse over the display area, it says "cgminer > summary > mhsavg" so I assume it's just looking at the wrong value when using bfgminer.

One other issue that seems rather intermittent is that the auto update of the "Advanced" tab doesn't seem to work sometimes. Once in a while it will auto update as intended, but much of the time it just continues to count up seconds without refreshing.

All in all, I still really enjoy this distro for pi mining, keep up the great work!

Now we are into the new version I am going to be working on screen support, I actually have one of those LCD's (I even put it together) and I will be getting them going soon.

Two bugs I ran into in the latest update:
1) On the advanced tab, some columns have too many decimals, like this:


2) When I tried changing the WebUI password, it locked me out and I had to reflash to fix it.

2) It's a bug. It blanks the password instead of changing it. To change password, goto Advanced / Settings, where you need to write the new password 2 times.

http://www.adafruit.com/products/946

or what needs to be changed?

No, that one won't work. The code is pretty much written for a single specific device. Sorry.
(Actually, "all" that would need to be changed is the display code - the API calls and error handling are re-usable  Tongue )

You should just get the one on ebay, I know it's smaller, but it's also cheaper:

As far as I know they are a reputable dealer. Everyone on this forum seems to have ordered without mishap.

It's only me, or there is something strange with the macaddress that the DHCP's are receiving from eth0 of the new version of MinePeon?

With the old 0.2.2, I was receiving the usual 12 digits, but with the new version, the Windows 2010 server's IPv4 DHCP receives 36 digits. I compared it to the IPv6 macaddress (with ifconfig -a) and it's not the same.

My La Fonera 2.0 router refused to give the reserved IP I had for the RPI and gives a new one.

What could be wrong?

I think someone asked this before, but I don't think anyone answered. Is there a way to rediret 192.168.1.x to https://192.168.1.x? I am used to just putting in the IP without the https so it would just be easier.

I'm trying to switch minepeon to bfgminer to see if that will make minepeon work with the usb hubs that I have.  On my PC, bfgminer works with my hubs but cgminer doesn't.  I would rather use cgminer, but I guess I have to use whatever works.  The only thing that I can find in regards to switching to BFGminer is the following set of terminal commands on the release history page:
Code:
   sudo systemctl stop cgminer.service    # Stops cgminer
   sudo systemctl disable cgminer.service # Stops cgminer from starting at boot
   sudo systemctl enable bfgminer.service # Makes bfgminer start at boot
   sudo systemctl start bfgminer.service  # Starts bfgminer

When I try this, the minepeon web interface just says that cgminer is down.  I have tried searching a bit, but I can't find anything else.  There proabably is something somewhere in the minepeon thread, but I don't want to read through all 58 pages.  There proabably is some easy fix.

Thanks in advance.

Did you reboot?  I often find I have to reboot between miner switchs.

The USB cable that was supplied with the LCD is really cheap...I recommend a better one to start with...I plugged in the Screen and It didnt even power up....I upgraded to a better one to see if that was the problem.....and it works fine now...


Great work guys.....Im up and running......with 0.2.3 and LCD screen...

You don't need to do anything with that - that's a full screen for the RPi
So you can even run a terminal there on the screen with cgminer in it.
Or a web browser of a stats page doing a refresh every so often ...
My original miner.php has an auto refresh option.

Hi Guys,

I am in the process of uploading a new 'test' image that I am going to call MinePeon-0.2.3a .

It is identical to 0.2.3 EXCEPT it includes the libraries, files and startup for both PiMiner and cgminerLCDStats.  If you have either of those LCD shields (or both) they should startup at boot.
