Anyone else all of a sudden start having their ESET or other virus program start flagging BFG? Was alwasy good, never had a problem before (but cgminer would get picked up). Now here within the last week or so ESET is flagging BFG.

Quick update: I just checked dmesg and it says the BE is registering as a GSM MODEM, WHAT THE HELL? Sounds like maybe a new model BE - although I'm not sure why it'd claim to be a modem. Can you paste the exact lines from dmesg? Anyone else all of a sudden start having their ESET or other virus program start flagging BFG? Was alwasy good, never had a problem before (but cgminer would get picked up). Now here within the last week or so ESET is flagging BFG.
Report a false positive. IMO, "antivirus" software that takes the easy way out by flagging commonly abused software as more than merely a warning, is itself malware. They should be looking for the virus/trojan itself, not the common software they use.

Now that its being flagged, I cant use it anymore.

Also here's a debug log I get when I try out my old args. [2013-08-04 08:12:23] setrlimit: Soft fd limit already identical to hard limit (1024) [2013-08-04 08:12:23] ft232r_scan: Found 10c4:ea60 - not a ft232r [2013-08-04 08:12:23] ft232r_scan: Found 13fe:3200 - not a ft232r [2013-08-04 08:12:23] ft232r_scan: Found 1d6b:0001 - not a ft232r [2013-08-04 08:12:23] ft232r_scan: Found 1d6b:0002 - not a ft232r Seems like I'm missing something to detect the BE, Hmmm. Quick update: I just checked dmesg and it says the BE is registering as a GSM MODEM, WHAT THE HELL? Disable / remove modemmanager. Unless of course you use it for some reason. apt-get / aptitude purge modemmanager on debian/derived systems. I did this on my ubuntu machine before my Jalapeños arrived. This is a RT-N16 with ASUSWRT Merlin, I tried disabling the USB Modem feature in the web GUI but it still detects it as a Modem. Ugh. I'm pretty sure I can't remove it as it's part of the firmware package.

I ran nothing at all, I replugged in the BE before I ran this command. Bus 002 Device 003: ID 10c4:ea60 Bus 001 Device 002: ID 13fe:3200 Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002

Did you install kmod-usb-serial-cp210x from opkg? AH HA! as I thought, the repo doesn't have that. I made a request for it, I guess I just gotta wait till someone compiles it and adds it. Thanks for clearing this up Luke-Jr.

I'm having trouble building BFGminer on Angstrom (BeagleBone Black).
I started trying to build 2.10.11 because that was what was listed as "stable." When building I was told that I needed jansson. I build jansson fine and the whole ./configure, make, make install process appeared to go through with no trouble (Success!). Except that when I tried to run the executable:
bfgminer: error while loading shared libraries: libjansson.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
libjansson.so.4 is right in the same place (/usr/local/lib) it was when I ran make and make install. So, not sure what that's about.
At that point I figured that I ought to just try the 3.1.4 version. There configure reported:
checking whether HASH_ITER is declared... no configure: error: Could not find HASH_ITER - please install uthash-dev 1.9.2+
Ok, so I went looking for uthash and here is where I'm probably handicapped by not being a C guy. (My first language was Fortran, then TCL, Rexx, and Perl, and now I write PHP because that's what they pay me to do). Anyway, the only uthash distribution out there says only this:
USAGE ============ The only file you need to use uthash in your own application is
src/uthash.h
These bonus headers are also included:
src/utlist.h src/utarray.h src/utstring.h
OK, header files. There are a number of them in the directory where I untarred the 3.1.4 distribution, and where I was trying to build bfgminer. So I tried copying uthash.h into the bfgminer distribution folder, but configure reported the same "Could not find HASH_ITER - please install uthash-dev 1.9.2+" message. I tried the same after copying the other three "bonus" header files in as well.
At this point it appears that I don't just need the uthash header files; I need the debian package uthash-dev. Which I don't have because I'm not running Debian.
Searching didn't yield any answers to these, so I'm a bit stuck and back to mining with cgminer. Might anyone have suggestions about what my next steps should be?

Check that /usr/local/lib is listed in /etc/ld.so.conf and that you ran ldconfig after installing it (this is standard procedure for library installs) At that point I figured that I ought to just try the 3.1.4 version. There configure reported:

It won't look in the bfgminer directory for the uthash headers by default. Try using: ./configure CFLAGS="-I$PWD"

Arrgh. Yes, I did run ldconfig, but /etc/ld.so.conf is a zero-length file. That's troubling. And now fixed. It won't look in the bfgminer directory for the uthash headers by default. Try using: ./configure CFLAGS="-I$PWD"
Beauty. Thank you! luckydog:~$ bfgminer -V bfgminer 3.1.4 luckydog:~$ ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

A90ZF159 is a Lancelot FPGA.

I'm already chagrinned for finding one of my earlier questions in the README after you answered it (thank you for being so gracious) but I'm stumped again. Any ideas?

Just posting to say I'm loving the new layout. Seems a bit more stable with my Block Erupters, too (no manic hash rates). Nice one. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Little donation sent to Luke-Jr.

I can confirm that having the cm1 miners and BE within the same host (raspberry pi) causes the pi to hang requiring power cycling to reset the unit with bfgminer 3.14. I cannot ssh back to the pi after it has crashed requiring a power cycle to reboot.
Would this problem be addressed on the next software version?

I got my jalapeno hashing on bfgminer 3.1.4 with the host pc gpu disabled but the gpu temp. does not return to the normal idle temp. How can I take it completely out of the equation so it doesn't leech for want of a better word.. Obliviously I want to still have the gpu enabled on the pc to play games etc.. Thanks..................... I tried the bitminter client and the gpu is completely idle , before with the BFGminer I was using an extra 50 watts from the leeching gpu.........I'm sure there is a way around this.........

Anyone else all of a sudden start having their ESET or other virus program start flagging BFG? Was alwasy good, never had a problem before (but cgminer would get picked up). Now here within the last week or so ESET is flagging BFG.
IMO, "antivirus" software that takes the easy way out by flagging commonly abused software as more than merely a warning, is itself malware. They should be looking for the virus/trojan itself, not the common software they use.
Sadly i found many other private clients from being infected by a bfgminer/cgminer/minerd instance Hidden in a self starting proces called adobe, so it looks some botnet builders are using the miner to run them illegal These unknowing customers have no clue that its not normal that their gpu is blazing like mad so they complain and ofcourse some specialist find that its caused by the secretly installed miners. If this is done by people they know or by botnet owners or usage of illegal software i do not know. Ofcourse some of them report their findings to the av companies, and to be honest even though its annoying they are right But fact is that this causes all anti virus makers to flag the miners as nasty software.

They aren't right. BFGMiner is not malware. The botnet is. Flag that, not the legit software it's abusing.
