Still waiting on the rest of my order #612 here, paid 27-July. So far I've received one XX made from chips in Zefir batch 1. Still waiting on the other two from Zefir's final batch. Status: Processing

All boards i receive are shipped out as fast as i can (usually the next business day). That's all i can do.

Does anyone know what version of firmware is loaded on the bitburners shipping now? If its not the latest what was changed and should we update the firmware when we receive our miners?

I didn't think to order a power supply in advance, doh. The strongest wallwart I can find in my house I'm not using is 12V 2A. I saw burnin mention earlier in thread that a 12V 2.5A would be okay to run a single bitburner board. Would a 12V 2A work safely? I'm running a single 20 chip XX board.
No, it's not enough for BTB. Non-overclocked BTB should take about 50W (on 12V that about 4 A), overclocked to 450 MHz takes about 105 W (that's 8.75 A on 12V).

My bitburners are running fine with cgminer --avalon-options 115:32:10:35:380 --avalon-auto --queue 4 --bitburner-voltage 1285 455MHz @ 32C? Are you running them in your fridge??? Anyway I'll try with my air cooled bitburners and "--avalon-auto". Let's see what happens...

Those are watercooled which yields lower chip temperatures (they need less power at lower temps). I would really like to see pictures of solaris setup, must look awesome. Ok thanks.

ATX would be the way to go, you can turn them one with a paperclip as power-on bridge. http://dodji.seketeli.com/downloads/shuttle-psu-paper-clip-test.pdf

Tried that last night but the power supply fan didn't spin up. It's a quiet one though so maybe the fan is idle until it heats up some. I'll try again and actually plug the bitburner into it this time around.

Anyone knows what the error: "BTB 0 usb write err:(-7) LIBUSB_ERROR_TIMEOUT usb_write error on avalon_write" means? I have regular bitburner and bitburner-fury chained to PC. Didn't get this error from start, only a few days.
Edit: Rebooting both boards works ok, but i want to know why does this happen.

If you are on windows read the cgminer readme and use zadeg to install usb drivers. If thats not the case then your usb-port might deliver not enough power.

Well i read about the usb port but i have it plugged in my PC ad why does it need power since i'm powering it via PCI-E power cables? Any link with a good and cheap USB powered hub?

Do you have windows on that pc running? Then you have to use zadeg like i wrote. If you already used it or if its linux then the usb-port you connected the bitburner too brings too low power. Try another port on your pc or an active usb-hub then. USB-Ports provide power too. And here it seems to be missing some power.

You are saying the pic32 draws power from the usb outlet? If so, how much would that be? Got those read/write/timeout errors myself on a win machine with zadig.
Also, would it help if i connected the boards separatly instead of chaining them?
Most of the time they work like a charm, but often unexpected and at the worst times they bring up those errors.

Same here. I used zadig too. Edit: Works very well after i shut everything down and i power again. Maybe that could be the explication that the pic32 draws too much power.

The PIC32 is NOT powered through USB, the current draw should be negligible. So far i have no explanation why a powered hub offers more stability.

The only problem is if i close bitburner's cgminer and i start it again while BBF is running too. Will get a powered hub tho just to have more mobility and options.

455MHz @ 32C? Are you running them in your fridge??? Anyway I'll try with my air cooled bitburners and "--avalon-auto". Let's see what happens... For me "--avalon-auto" results in slower hashrates - after about 10h it went down to ~320MHz (starting at 380MHz). I'll try again with v3.4.3, maybe this will result in better rates... I would really like to see pictures of solaris setup, must look awesome.

Got my 2 burners yesterday and i'm having trouble with one of the 2 boards i got. My 10chip works just fine at around 4gh . But my 20chip board keeps rebooting every 30sec.
Currently testing them without the CAN untill i can get them both running.
I'm using "--avalon-options 115200:2:10:d:400 --avalon-auto --queue 4 --bitburner-voltage 1285".
Any1 got an idea to why my board keeps rebooting?
