Again, -ck's main point: CGminer is not for mining altcoins. Just SHA256 coins. Primarily of course BTC You want alts, go to the altcoin areas to find alt mining software and sympathetic souls. Beyond that once again, if the D3 is using ASIC's then all they can EVER do is mine said altcoin or some other one that uses the exact same algo. ASIC-based miners cannot be reprogrammed. Period. End of story. (don't know what D3 uses as I don't mine alts) If they are actually using scrypt processing chips maybe they can be re-purposed but that is strictly between you and their maker.

The only way to make $28 from that is to sell to some poor schmuck for $28. Where are you guys getting this bad information?? You tube if I had to guess.

I don't understand the $30ish ebay market price. They are worthless considering you can get a 2pac for $80 which can run at 15 g/h. You would think people could figure it out with a little research but I guess not.

The same places they 'learn' from to think that Bitcoin is a general term for any crypto coin so any altcoin they hear of is 'Bitcoin'. Makes ya wanna smack'em in the back of the head at times...

you now need a several Ths ASIC miner to mine. CPU/GPU/USB miners are a thing of the past if you want to make some money.

I wouldn´t say that USB miners are the past. Like I see it there is no profitable way to mine bitcoin any more. If you want to keep it simple try a gekkoscience 2 pac. It´s an USB miner with an overclocked hashrate of 15 Gh/s. I think thats pretty good for a USB miner. If you want to make a little more bitcoins you need a real mining machine. But then you have to consider the power consumption. I have running two 2 pacs with 10 Gh/s with an input power of 25 W. The raspberry pi and the fan included. That is payable.

Bitcoin difficulty is way too high to mine with your PC. Post in the alt coin section to see if there which can be mined with a PC and how.

No doubt you are doing the wrong thing anyway. I'm guessing you think you can install cgminer and mine with your PC. CGminer is controller software for dedicated mining hardware, it does NOT mine bitcoin on your PC.

"No doubt you are doing the wrong thing anyway. I'm guessing you think you can install cgminer and mine with your PC. CGminer is controller software for dedicated mining hardware, it does NOT mine bitcoin on your PC."
I made a dedicated mining rig with one gpu (for now) with Ubuntu OS. I've got a ledger on the way from Amazon and am currently trying to get a miner running. I attempted Easyminer and got an error. Now i'm trying CGMiner. My challenge is that I am a Windows user and a complete noob to Linux.
I am glad everyone on here is quick to help or be an @$$hole.

Right so you are doing the wrong thing. You cannot mine bitcoin with a GPU and cgminer. A GPU is not dedicated mining hardware.

Ok. Thank you. However, I'm not interested in mining BTC.
I want to mine altcoins. Is this where you are going to tell me to post in the Altcoin forum?
I thought I was in the CGMiner part of the forum?

You should read the rules of this subforum: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2415854.0Many many people have forked cgminer and use it for mining all sorts of shit. This thread is for support of the master cgminer code which I maintain and is for bitcoin mining only. You need to seek help from whomever maintains the fork that mines whatever shit you want to mine.
