[CLOSED] NanoFury NF1 USB stick - Group Buy + Product Assembly

[Swimmer63]

Thanks for your patience with me.  I did figure that out.

I used to run BE's on this machine and decided to clean up all the unused Com Ports and USB hubs listed in the Device Mgr.
I was hoping to be able to get more than 13 Nano's to run.  I have 20 right now.
But now Bfgminer won't start.  It locks up.  I think it has something to do with the fact that despite reinstalling all the Nano's I don't have any COM ports listed in the Device Mgr.  They are just gone.  Not even a heading that says "Ports"
Any idea how I get that back?

[vs3]

Nanos don't use COM ports - they should show up under the HID (Human Interface Device) devices section.

I'm not sure how you deleted those COM ports - I guess it is possible that this may have messed up Windows' configuration...
Take a look at this link and see if that makes any difference: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=300638

Also - try it first with just one device, then add some more, and then even more. Also, try different USB ports.
That way you can find out if you're hitting any kind of limitation (software or hardware)

Is someone runnig nanofurys on minepeon?

i'm running 2 of them on windows, but i'd like to add them to my BE on minepeon....

git clone https://github.com/signal11/hidapi && git clone https://github.com/luke-jr/bfgminer

cd hidapi
./bootstrap
./configure
make -j2
make install

cd ../bfgminer
./autogen.sh
CFLAGS="-ggdb -O0" ./configure --disable-opencl --enable-bitfury --enable-icarus --enable-bigpic --enable-nanofury
make -j2

i can't get bfgminer to pickup on the .so files for libhidapi on raspian wheezy

For some reason, ld.so isn't looking in /usr/local/lib

Edit: Nevermind, looks like I forgot to run ldconfig myself!

[bigbeninlondon]

Woot!  Up and running.  Thanks vs3 et al!  Will definitely buy from again!

One quick question.  I highlighted a bunch of statistics.  Anywhere I can get a rundown of those?  I've never thought to ask, but figure someone on here could point me in the right direction so I can read some of these interesting numbers.

Thanks again!

[Taugeran]

have arrived and are trying to figure out how to 1.) function properly on a pi
                                                                      2.) play nice with with 1 BF1 and 4 erupters :S

[Taugeran]

no pi for now running on windows

Thanks for the feedback! That's all great news!

As for your question - see the README: https://github.com/luke-jr/bfgminer

To get rid of that error I ran ldconfig as Luke implied.
I really do appreciate Luke-Jr's efforts, he always seems to jump to the aid of the community.

I still can't get mine running tho.

[bigbeninlondon]

Well I'll be damned, the readme file actually has pertinent information.   Gracias.

can i buy more?

I'd talk about selling you mine.

I didn't realize they were going to be a windows thing.

not quite - you can run them everywhere where you can run bfgminer

yea only reason I'm posting from windows is i was getting timeouts etc on my rpi. its about time to reformat the lil thing and start from a fresh image. that thing has been used for all kinds of shit

[RicRock]

I don't believe that is true

Please give detailed instructions then.

I am unable to get them to run on bfg 3.5.1 and wheezy

will work on it in a few days. i moved to windows because of lockups/freezes in bfg on wheezy due to not being able to initialize/ MCP2210_SPI_Transfer temp. rejected (XX bytes remaining)

I appreciate your efforts but I'll reiterate, since it appears to be a windows only device, I'm willing to accept offers to purchase my devices.
