Finally got BFGMiner running on Debian on my BeagleBone Black. It's MUCH faster than the RaspberryPi. I'm running getwork proxy for 65GH and it's running at less than 10% CPU at full speed. The Pi can't do that for shit. Trying USB miners later (I think I got hidapi running). Still looking forward to getting LongPoll support.

The IceFurys are mining perfectly. I've got approx 90GH going through the BBB between proxies and USB miners. Less than 20% CPU. Stats at http://847pool.no-ip.biz:7544/miner.php

Update on my investigations on ARM and NFY;- Arch Linux on x86/64 bfgminer 3.9.0 = No problems, works as expected. Arch Linux on Raspberry Pi (ARMv6) bfgminer 3.9.0 = Detects but cannot initialize, often segfaults and core dumps. Rasberian on Raspberry Pi (ARMv6) bfgminer 3.9.0 = Detects but cannot initialize, often segfaults and core dumps. Arch Linux on CubieBoard2 (ARMv7) bfgminer 3.9.0 = Detects, initializes, bfgminer often has to reset the NFY's because the hashrate falls below 50%, often segfaults and core dumps. Arch Linux on BeagleBone Black (ARMv7) bfgminer 3.9.0 = Detects, initializes, occasionally segfaults and core dumps. Does not handle unplug events and a restart (of bfgminer or the ARM device) will often leave the NFY's locked. As a note, all other hardware drivers that I can test (BFL, ICA, BPM, ZTX) work fine on all platforms. My build scripts are;- hidapi (the necessary library) git clone https://github.com/signal11/hidapi cd hidapi ./bootstrap ./configure --prefix=/ make make install cd .. bfgminergit clone https://github.com/luke-jr/bfgminer.git cd bfgminer ./autogen.sh ./configure make make install Is anyone experiencing anything different? If so, can I possibly grab an image of the OS from you so I can compare/see what is different. Neil

Occasionally I get a few accepted shares first. Very similar to what I get, I have not noticed any shares though (I have not really been looking though). The Pi is defiantly most effected of the ARM systems, a bit understandable it being ARMv6 with a dodgy USB controller. I just tried Pidora (a Fedora Remix) with the same results as Arch and Rasperian. Neil

No worries, I will just reload/recompile "-g" on the CubeBoard2 and get back to you. It seems to have the most 'intresting' results. Neil

On the BBB one of my IceFurys (NFY0) gives lots of 'dropped nonces' errors on startup, the other (NFY1) is perfect. NFY0 eventually stabilises after about a minute and runs fine. I have nowhere near the errors listed by Nate.
As I said, I'm running Debian on the BBB with bfg compiled from source.

I am getting 2 gh with windows 7 and the custom cgminer build.. waiting on luke to get ant miners set for bfgminer. At luke-jr how is you new home? nice a new home and a new year wrapped into one. good luck with it. Ps I sent a small amount of BTC for a house warming gift.

I have an instance of bfgminer proxy running on port 8332. starting another one on different port: ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fi40.tinypic.com%2Fvy71c1.jpg&t=665&c=gAgdjlGid4c08g) reproducible with other port combinations and on both win 7 and 8 what am i doing wrong? not an issue with prior to 3.9.0 versions of bfgminer.

That's weird, I've got 3.9.0 running on Windows 7, OpenWRT, Debian and whatever MinePeon runs on, and I've not seen this.

That's weird, I've got 3.9.0 running on Windows 7, OpenWRT, Debian and whatever MinePeon runs on, and I've not seen this. it ignores the specified port number and instead binds on same port as the 1st instance of bfgminer running in proxy... weird indeed
