asicminer usb stick & linux

[christian99]

Hi,
maybe a little stupid question, but i didn't find an answer anywhere:
Can I use the Asicminer usb sticks on linux and which mining software do i need to use?
Do I need some special drivers or stuff like that?

Greetings
Christian

Cgminer with libusb.

No special drivers, as long as libusb is installed.  Some have problems with certain linux builds, kano is getting close to figuring out the libusb version in those instances.

Running a bunch on xubuntu 12.04 with cgminer 3.3.1 - no problems here.

Cgminer with libusb.

This is what I use. I get 335 Mh/s on each stick with no issues.

Asicminer USB? Uh, please do the math. I don't think its worth really, I have one because I just want to mine on something. And I made a little profit on selling a BFL product.

Raspbian + cgminer 3.1.1 here.  I didn't have much luck with the libusb-based versions.

nobody asked if it was worth it.

Running fine here with Mint 15 and cgminer 3.3.1.

finally have some, and just for completeness: One need also the cp210x kernel driver to use the errupters.
