Is there any way to set seperate workers for each device?
Run multiple instances of BFGMiner with different log in stuff for whatever pool you're using... The reason im ask is my effective hashrate is really low with 40 gridseeds. Any ideas anyone? I'm seeing the same issues, drop offs in reported hashrate, some devices not seen when started, some going dead after a few minutes. Review my post above for a temp solution until BFG 4.0 comes out. (sorry Linux only) Yeah this describes my issues well. Sucks cause i got excited when i saw 15mh from 39 units but the effective hashrate is only 11.45mh

jeez man calm down... a few points here...
1. Your'e posting in the BFGMiner thread about CPUMiner... shouldn't expect help, but people here are trying to help you anyway. 2. You're being pretty rude to nwoolls who's the guy who coded Gridseed support in BFGMiner. If anyone can help you, he can... show some respect and maybe he can help. 3. Why don't you try the BFGMiner version with Gridseed support that nwoolls made... it could help you with your stability issues and get rid of some of your obvious stress. 4. How about get a beer, calm down, and then try writing a post that doesn't bite every hand that tries to help you.
This is NO HELP! DELETE! Some people can't take a clue, it would appear. ** PLONK **

This is NO HELP! DELETE! wolfey which version of CPU miner are you running, I use the version that shuts down the BTC portion of the chip so it only runs Scrypt at around 7 to 9 watts been running my first 5 without issue 24 7 second for a week set of 5 arrived yesterday and will hit 24 hours of running with no issue in about 4 hours. two things I have found, 1:don't point more than 3 to the same worker or hashrates get screwy. as a matter of fact I have a 1 GS to 1 worker right now. 2:gs will give funky results if they are not powered up correctly 12 v first than the 5 v usb. running at 850 mhz on each.

Hi, I uninstalled Zadig, and after it still didn't work. I added -S antminer:all on my start script, and it worked Can you confirm me my worker is working? I see nothing on my pool's website, and got a lot of "requested work update" http://img11.hostingpics.net/pics/581268Capture.pngThanks

Can you share you start script? It almost looks like you still have --scrypt in there and are going against a SSH-256 coin? Is that possible?

Any chance we might get AntMiner S1 control via bfgminer and MuM You can already control it (and any other RPC API miner on the network) with MultiMiner. You just need to configure it to allow API access from your IP. From looking through the MultiMiner thread it seems like you already have that working. AFAIK there is also an update for the firmware that makes it work properly with stratum proxies. What features are you looking for that are missing? I do plan to work on native BFGMiner support for the S1 but I'm not sure that will change much for MultiMiner. Can someone point me in the direction of that firmware, am on antMiner_openwrt20140207.bin which is the latest I can find and I get 100% Errors. Thanx

Long post deleted after I found the answer in another thread.
For those who saw the original, I needed to add
-S gridseed:/dev/ttyACM0
to the bfgminer command line to tell it where the miner was. Autodetect does not seem to find gridseed miners in linux.

I will put here my start script as soon as possible, but I don't remember putting a --scrypt inside, there is something like : bfgminer -o pool -u user -p pass -S antminer:all, but I confirm you that Can you advise me a pool with a low difficulty like that I can test? I am on multipool https://www.multipool.us/Thank you for your help

I based my original expectations on he 1 month calculation at bitcoinx and they said with a 190 mh/s has rate I could expect about $14.90/day but on slush's pool I've been averaging almost $20/day - so are you saying I might do better at btcguild based on the fact I'm a really small fish in a big pond?

I agree. I am on both for SHA, and ScriptGuild and Multipool for Scrypt. Multipool recently raised their default difficulty. IMHO they are alienating the little guy. I have six USB Eruptors, a BE Cube, an a Antminer U1 for SHA-256. For Scrypt I use a pair of AMD 7770, a 5650, and a 260x. Only the Cube can handle the Multipool's new difficulty and even then barely. Please post both your startup and your configuration file. That way we can help you.

For scrypt, if you want a decent pool, use scryptguild.com (an offshoot of btcguild, run by the same person). It's starting difficulty is 16 and I'm pushing about 100 kh/s and making diddly squat, but it's more fun. there is an auto conversion from the many alt-coins to bitcoin, or you can keep your different types of coins...

I'm trying to build the gridseed fork on a Raspberry Pi. I already have the standard bfgminer built and running on this RPi, controlling Bitfury and BFL hardware. When I try to build the gridseed fork, though, it fails on link: CCLD bfgminer bfgminer-driver-gridseed.o: In function `gridseed_lowl_probe': /home/pi/bfgminer.gridseed/driver-gridseed.c:133: undefined reference to `vcom_lowl_probe_wrapper' bfgminer-driver-gridseed.o: In function `gridseed_detect_custom': /home/pi/bfgminer.gridseed/driver-gridseed.c:101: undefined reference to `bfg_claim_serial' bfgminer-gc3355.o: In function `gc3355_read': /home/pi/bfgminer.gridseed/gc3355.c:93: undefined reference to `_serial_read' bfgminer-gc3355.o: In function `gc3355_open': /home/pi/bfgminer.gridseed/gc3355.c:119: undefined reference to `serial_open' bfgminer-gc3355.o: In function `gc3355_close': /home/pi/bfgminer.gridseed/gc3355.c:124: undefined reference to `serial_close' collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make[2]: *** [bfgminer] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/pi/bfgminer.gridseed' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/pi/bfgminer.gridseed' make: *** [all] Error 2

I have a small gridseed farm would these drivers allow me to run BFGminer 3.10.0 windows 7 64bit with 2 instances of Bfgminer for dual mining. Any help would greatly be appreciated Thanks all
There's only support for Scrypt mining with the 5-chip GridSeed units currently, and it's not official yet (you must compile from a Git branch). There is support for DualMode with the 1-chip DualMiner sticks though (still unofficial, still requires using a separate branch). can it sucessfully be complied for OpenWRT or are the some special impossibru dependencies?

Use MultiMiner, It uses BFGMiner as a back end and has a great GUI and you can set each device to it's own coin if you want. It also has an easy setup for adding arguments for your SHA and Scrypt miners. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=248173.0Try it out it will be much easier and do what you need it too. Hey just wondering, Is there a way to get BFGminer to mine two differant coins at once with differant devices? I've got a few USB ASIC's plugged in and im finally deciding to switch my GPU's over to LTC, and i was hoping it would be as simple as setting the GPU's to script and changing the pool for them (somehow)
but i expect to have to run two differant instances of bfgminer
MultiMiner would not let me set my pool, Looked for hours, It wouldn't let me, theres no readme. ANY OTHER IDEAS? Seriously, MultiMiner was a clusterfuck, "Hang on installing bfgminer even though you said not to" Any other ideas.... ANY... Im practically at the point of (lol) grabbing GUI miner for my scrypt mining, and leave BFG miner running the ASICs never the less, this is still running two instances of BFGminer, Help please "Getting started" Does not, nor did it ever, appear, i CANNOT set my pool, i've uninstalled and reinstalled multiminer, no luck, I CANNOT SET THE POOL

Right-click on any of the devices and it will show a list of the coins you have configured. Click one to select that coin for that device. You can also multi-select devices. Admittedly the documentation is light but it exists and there are blog posts describing its usage as well, and a big forum thread too. Also, there are tips shown on startup and one of the first ones tells you about right-clicking devices (and if you click the tip, it shows the right-click context menu). ANY OTHER IDEAS? Seriously, MultiMiner was a clusterfuck, "Hang on installing bfgminer even though you said not to"
How did you "say not to"? MultiMiner installs BFGMiner as a first step. There is no "saying not to".
