Does anyone have the link to the CGmimer fine tuning settings for mining BTC? I used the search but could not find it. It's the one around thread concurrency, shaders, worksizes and their factors.

Lol ok, please cater us OCD people. I'll try to ignore it. Ok drivers installed. Everything is perfect but one thing, it hashes with 20 devices but only shows 2.
Ok restarting cgminer finally shows them all. Might be a cache thing or a bug?
The display has 2 issues: 1) You already know from before about the size issue (and needing to resize the screen for a lot of devices) if you can see 20 already before  2) If it doesn't detect the device at start up (due to an initialisation failure the first time) it will detect it as a hotplug device 5 seconds later Hotplug devices don't get added to the screen since curses is a curse Though it is on the todo list - but it is only for looks, it doesn't affect mining performance. But you will see them in the API and of course the total figures will include all the hotplug devices. |

New version 3.2.0 - 31st May 2013
Thanks, ckolivas. Nice! Thanks for your efforts.... <cut>
You are allowed to not quote everything again here... I hate this kind of crap, this is where ignore comes in great. Cuts the thread down. Edit: I'm glad ckolivas, offers this in 7z format, such a great compression method. |

Those aren't settings for BTC mining. |
A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?
A: Top-posting.

call me an idiot, but i still can't get this working. i downloaded the latest cgminer, used zadig to change to winusb... but for the life of me i can't figure out how to remove the ftdi driver.
getting these messages:
[2013-05-31 08:16:34] USB init, open device failed, err -12, you need to install a Windows USB driver for - AMU device 2:11
[2013-05-31 08:16:34] Icarus detect (2:11) failed to initialise (incorrect device?)

Zadig replaced mine. Make sure to use administrator. You'll know when your com ports disappear. call me an idiot, but i still can't get this working. i downloaded the latest cgminer, used zadig to change to winusb... but for the life of me i can't figure out how to remove the ftdi driver.

A zombie happens when a device is unplugged. However I suspect you didn't actually unplug it based on your surprise? When you hotplug one in, it unfortunately does not appear in the list at the top since that window is (currently) rigidly set at startup. Your average hashrate of 8GH suggests that all 20 are still working so it looks like for whatever reason BLT 18 got unplugged and then hotplugged itself back again. So not sure why it happened here. |

i THINK the drivers were replaced sucessfully, but cgminer's still throwing the same message.
and now bfgminer doesn't work either - which makes me think two things: oh god i broke it, or yea, the driver is installed.
except bfgminer DOES recognize one of them... which makes no sense to me...

check your mhs, they dont always display all devices right now i THINK the drivers were replaced sucessfully, but cgminer's still throwing the same message.

cgminer isn't displaying ANY devices, and the green LED on the sticks isn't doing the usual blinky-when-found-a-share thing. it's just solid green. |

Well it is a major code update so we knew there might be problems, and windows was always going to be an issue (when isn't it?). We're probably too trigger happy at calling usb errors as being the same as disconnecting it. For now you might be more comfortable running the display in compact mode so you don't see it unplugging and hotplugging them every so often... |

did that. they are. also followed the steps here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=220450.0everything has a comport. after following those steps (including a reboot) bfgminer's working again, but cgminer remains with the same error. |

That error means exactly what it says: "you need to install a Windows USB driver for" It means that zadig hasn't set the driver to WinUSB (or you didn't) As per FPGA-README, you need to run zadig as administrator, use the Menu: Options -> List All Devices then set the device drivers to WinUSB |

haah, next reason, why I'm not using windows at all. to much complicated for me.)
on linux (debian) works all like a charm, I just need to install:
sudo apt-get install libusb-1.0-0-dev and remove timing option and -S /dev/ttyUSBXXX
thanks guys for great work
