That is the bfgminer software ... you need to set up a driver first as well.
For Linux, you don't need to install a separate driver, right? It's supposed to be included in the kernel. Yeah the driver is already included in the kernel After much thread searching and lurking I found that the Rpi USB is crap, and that it hates anything above USB2 (even hates some USB2) and a fix is to force the Rpi to only use USB1 by adding “dwc_otg.speed=1” to “cmdline.txt”. After adding this (running 4 MLD on a orico 10 port USB3 hub with Rpi3) everything seems to be working fine I can now go 700+ and so far seems stable, will post back later once it’s had a good run to confirm Hopefully this will help others having the same problem on a pi This thread pointed me in the right direction: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=843788.0

Hi, can someone please tell me step by step how to set this up on NOOBS (Linux) on raspberry pi 3B. i AM USING A POWERED usb hub. My problem is the (driver download) seems just to contain BFGminer not the driver.
Many thanks for the help!

I followed guide made by Astrali and had no issues: Any chance someone can write up a step-by-step guide for getting these working on a Raspberry Pi 3B? I'm a Linux novice and most of what I see assumes a certain level of know how. I was hoping to set it up wirelessly on Minera, but at this point I'm so confused I'll take what I can get... Thanks in advance!
so you need the a foolproof copy n paste "just get it to work" description? i'll write a short version for you that is most probably not perfect - but will most probably work. ...

Many thanks It helped loads but when I get to start it so. (./start_moonlander2.sh) it says no such file found or directory.
Also on the very first step it says Unable to locate package libcur14-openssl-dev
Anyone know why or how to fix
Thanks again.

Well, this is above my knowledge. Only idea I have is whether you performed system update and upgrade? (sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get upgrade) If still not working then you'd better ask Astrali for help. EDIT: see this ... 2) When I try and execute the script on a Pi3 it says: ./bfgminer: error while loading shared libraries: libjansson.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory EDIT: I fixed this with running the following: sudo apt-get install autoconf autogen libtool uthash-dev libjansson-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev libusb-dev libncurses-dev git-core ...

I don't think so, apparently there's something wrong or mising in your system. If the above mentioned commands aslo not working then I have no idea how to fix it. Sorry.

NP. I'm on NOOBs as well so i don't think this is the cause.

So I decided to add some command line options to my start file that significantly increased the stability, slightly increased the hash rate, and significantly decreased the HW on my old Gridseed Blades, with a few changes. Lo and behold, the same effect was had on my wonderful Moonlander 2's. I am running 17 of them at the moment on some pretty good hubs. I saw a stability increase of a day or so, hash rate increase of 5% and 50% reduction in HW!!!. Not sure what all of the settings do but hey it really seems to make a difference. I also always launch Bfgminer with full Admin privileges on Windows, the same effect was had on the Pi 3.
C:\moonlander\bfgminer-5.4.2-futurebit2-win64\bfgminer.exe --scrypt -o stratum+tcp://us.litecoinpool.org:3333 -u worker.1 -p 1,d=4096 -S MLD:all --set MLD:clock=600,baud=23040,chips=1,modules=2,usefifo=0,hotplug=17,thread-concurrency=50000,lookup-gap=0,gpu-threads=1
Cheers and Happy mining

Are you mining BBK? If so what pool are you using if you don't mind me asking?

Are you mining BBK? If so what pool are you using if you don't mind me asking? I was on minpool for a couple days, but became the only one. Went over to hashfaster both work fine, but the risk of an orphan block on minpool made me switch.

i dont get this hub to work... the PSU is 30A on the 5V side i get tons on "moonlander has stopped hashing" and "unknown rsponse from moonlander" msg they work (if) very slow also on this hub and get HOT http://prntscr.com/iitlw5any recommendations to get 12 Moonlanders loadet? greets mike Was Having a similar problem trying to run 15 on the big eyeboot hub. I left the clock at 600 and raised the minimum difficulty to 2048. While I only get 3.4 Mh, they run much more stable. I also added some options to the command line that really helped seemed to help. I also put a some small usb fans in the empty slots on the hub to help move the air. bfgminer.exe --scrypt -o stratum+tcp://us.litecoinpool.org:3333 -u worker.1 -p 1,d=2048 -S MLD:all --set MLD:clock=600,baud=23040,chips=1,modules=2,usefifo=0,hotplug=17,thread-concurrency=50000,lookup-gap=0,gpu-threads=1

Hello,
I've been running a ML2 for about 2 days, pretty much at stock settings (upped freq to 620) on a macbook pro usb3 port. It has been running stable for that time, but suddenly the hashrate dropped to 2.1 - 2.5 MH, it used to be stable at 3 - 3.2 MH.
Am I missing something right here? My setup didn't change (no other devices attached).
For stable 3 MH you will need more than 500 mA. Can macbook pro usb port suplly current more than that? I have no idea, I can only tell what I saw these last 2 days. This is what system info says Current Available (mA): 500 Current Required (mA): 100 Extra Operating Current (mA): 0 Apple docs: Apple computers equipped with USB 3 provide up to 900 mA (milliamps) at 5 V (Volts) to most Apple USB peripherals as well as all third-party USB peripherals that comply with USB specifications. https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204377According to docs, it can provide from 500 mA up to 1100 mA, depends how much attached device is in some way compatible with oem apple devices. Try to lower clock speed @540... Dropping hasrate is usually all about lack of juice from usb port... EDIT: 620 is not available clock speed listed on first page. oh wow.. Must be a typo, I'll see what fixing this does. Thank you. It's on 625 now, but it seems it doesn't matter much. I used to get 3.2MH on 600 and stock settings, but hey better than nothing I'm mainly doing this to support and because I'm interested in it, not to get rich. It is getting worse and worse from now on. It has drops to 1.5MH. Frequent unknown responses, restarts,.. I have to lower my freq everyday, while it was stable the first 3 days, something definitely is wrong. Screenshot: https://www.dropbox.com/s/mce5t24ee1w4yu1/Screenshot%202018-02-21%2008.35.11.pngI think you should decrease Vcore to 0.65V. Read page #34 of this thread up to post #669. Yea to get under 1A and stable operation off a standard computer USB port your going to need to lower the voltage and run under 600 MHz. I lowered it to 540 freq and around .65 core voltage, went well for 2 days. Then the same thing resurfaced. Multiple errors, but now the hashrate goes even lower ex. 1.5. It might have been something with the assembly of the ML by the distributor as the large heatsink with fan came loose (heat?) and I had the put it back. It was already average assembled from start (fan and heatsink were pretty much off target by 0.5cm ) I can't even let it run for 30 minutes now on low freq and voltage or the glue/paste starts to go soft and as I ran the thing horizontal the fan and heatsink would just fall down. I'm not much of a hardware guy so I'm trying to explain the things as I see them Thank you!
