Luke are you considering adding support for the gridseed 5 chip miner?
It is selling like hotcakes but has rather poor software support. bfgminer would be magic...
+1 very interested in this. Support for the single-chip thumbs is completed and submitted to Luke as a pull-request for 4.0: https://github.com/nwoolls/bfgminer/tree/feature/dualminer-supportSupport for the 5-chip miners is under way as well. this is good news. I have a 300 dollar brick as I am just not in the mood to spend a day or 2 to get it to work. I got one from lightning asic. I am looking to run just the one 5 chipper.

Stupid question.
Running BFGMiner on Raspberry Pi. How do I clear my conf file? I accidentally wrote some settings to a configuration file, and now I want it back to default. How do I do that?
[edit]Found it. Sucker is in hidden file ".bfgminer" on my root.

Just found this post. This is great! Down loaded and looked over bgminer's readme files and so on. Even tried to run it just for the heck of it. Doesn't see my 5 chip GC3355 miners though ;( Guess it's not going to either but I don't understand why it shut down right after I try to enter M+ in order to add my miners to the list.... What am I doing wrong? I tried cntrl and Alt M+ but that doesn't work. I have them all powered up, and connected via USB hub to my XP laptop. Just need the software to run them. I see you're working on support for the 5 chips which is fantastic. In looking over your program, it looks very good! I see you've put a lot into building it. Must appreciated. Do you need any beta testers for your 5 chip version? I'd be happy to assist and be one of your testers. Please let me know as soon as your program is ready! Thanks wolfey2014

I just wanted to let everyone know I put up a small review of the DualMiner on cryptocoinsnews.com http://www.cryptocoinsnews.com/2014/02/26/dualminer-sha-256-scrypt-usb-miner/It really is a good product and I wanted to share my experience using it with everyone. I also made sure to mention that Nate and Luke were working hard on getting support for them for MultiMiner and BFGMiner.

Just a bit of news... I purchased one of those $6 USB power monitors that were mentioned here (or maybe over on the BFGMiner Antminer thread). Arrived today. Works great for UCB fans, but when an Antminer is plugged in, bfgminer doesn't see it anymore.
Haven't played with it much, but wanted to give folks a heads up. It was $6, for that I'm happy the lights work, so not complaining...

First, make sure it's plugged in all the way. Make sure your 5V power source is providing enough current. If that's not the problem, it could be a voltage drop or current limit problem being caused by that $6 miner killer! Better unplug it from your miner until you know, or you could overstress or fry something! Gewed luck!

Oh, I didn't run it there for long, just long enough to try a few restarts of bfgminer. I do suspect its interfering somehow. Antminer came back immediately when directly plugged in.
Does work good on measuring voltage and current of my usb fan! <rofl>

hah! you don't want to try that thing on the 12V side anyway... it would get fried by the current being pulled there for sure...the 12V is for more than the fans, it's what's being ultra high speed switched and loaded like a mofo by the ASICs while mining... ;]

I have a Bitfury V1 10 card rig. Whenever I try and start bfgminer I get "Too many values passed to set temp cutoff" and bfgminer closes. Bfgminer works just fine on my 8 card V3 rig. Anything I can do to get it working? The built in chainminer software from Bitfury does not have a failover option, or I have just yet to find it.
Thanks.

Delete your config file I will give it a try. Thanks for the help! Edit: I can get in now, but all I get is HW errors. I am running bfgminer by "sudo ./bfgminer -S bfsb:auto". Am I missing something?

nwoolls, any updates on the HEX16A2 drivers for bfgminer? I would LOVE to get these working with bfg - if I could, it'd mean running 1 PC for everything rather than 1 PC and two little ARM routers that aren't the most stable devices.

Woop woop! I can't wait for bfgminer support for the 5-chip gridseed miners. Using cpuminer sucks

Hi BFG pros I have a problem with my Hashfast Babyjet, it's 4th die isn't working. I was wondering if someone could maybe make sense out of this and tell me what might be going on: [2014-02-27 14:29:50] HFA 0: STATUS from chipaddr=0x03 with hdata=0x5e07 (isn=0x2f4): total=96 uptodate=96 active=0 pending=0 transitioned=96 [2014-02-27 14:29:50] HFA 0: STATUS from chipaddr=0x02 with hdata=0x5e02 (isn=0xbc): total=96 uptodate=96 active=94 pending=94 transitioned=2 [2014-02-27 14:29:50] HFA 0: STATUS from chipaddr=0x01 with hdata=0x5e02 (isn=0xbe): total=96 uptodate=96 active=95 pending=95 transitioned=1 [2014-02-27 14:29:50] HFA 0: STATUS from chipaddr=0x00 with hdata=0x5e02 (isn=0xbe): total=96 uptodate=96 active=95 pending=65 transitioned=31 I notice the different hdata and isn values for my 4th die. As the newest 0.4RC firmware from hashfast didn't fix this I'm wondering if maybe there is something that could be done in BFGMiner to solve this problem? If I look at the "dead" cores in BFGMiner, they show as enabled, 0ghps hash rate (not in RST state) I can disable and enable them, but they just sit at 0ghps.

No not really - I just got a HEX16A from Luke. I got it up and going but only at 4-5 Gh/s. Still trying to figure out what's up there. From there I will work on a BFGMiner driver for the HEX16A but I'm not sure how far that goes for supporting the HEX16A2 (which is Avalon 2 based instead of the first-gen chips).

Oh, I thought it was a HEX16A2 you had. I thought so too - I've tried bugging the TechnoBit folks for samples but didn't get anywhere. If you want to try getting in touch with them that would probably help. I'm fairly certain the reason we got the Scrypt ASIC samples is due to users requesting them more than us. Edit: I sent marto another PM requesting a sample.
