Are you still doing refunds for the fpga orders?

No, *almost* everything should have shipped (according to SQRL), and what hasn't shipped is supposed to be shipped this week.

If you haven't received yet send an email to sales@fpga.land with the relevant information and we'll check it out.

Any news on the SQRL "Active Heatsink" fan attachment orders? I have had 2 BCU's delivered with the standard heatsink with no fan and ordered 2 of the active heatsinks.. says estimated delivery in 2018 and in stock now

I heard these might of been only for factory install... if thats the case, can I get a refund (and I can buy some delta fans instead)? Otherwise I'm looking forward to them being shipped so I can use my BCU's

I do not have any knowledge of the active cooling deliveries. I'm not sure if they're in stock or not. You would need to check with SQRL by filing a ticket in their store https://store.squirrelsresearch.com

any timeline on bitstreams for monero being released?

I do not have any timelines. SQRL was delivering the monero bitstream. The lyra2z we were publishing has been released. You can register at https://all-mine.co/

We're working closely with community developers and are expecting to have 3 new bitstreams for mining soon. The 3 bitstreams have been validated as working - we're now working to make them go faster.

Cardboard seems to work better than the duct I made. The other thing that seems to work pretty well is that compressed cardboard stuff you get in the 'projects' section of lowes / home depot lumber area. It's easy to work with and you can quickly cut out forms that would enclose all the cards.

Looking for an efficient air duct design, any luck on a redesign of yours or maybe you could point me to someone?

You'll want to hop on discord and speak with @Conlaeb#4993 -- He has a number of designs

I've already spoken with him, got the recommended files, and had my friend 3D Print me the fan enclosure.. Looks good but I need a stronger fan like the high RPM delta ones, the regular 1800rpm case fans are not enough

Here's the download link to the 3d print files he gave me: http://www.filedropper.com/cacheflowducts

He recommended me (and I used) type D

Thanks, it looks awesome.

Announcement:

#1) The amoveo bitstream for the BCU-1525 has been released. You can create your configuration at https://miner.all-mine.co/

#2) We have completed work to build the shell for the CVP-13. We will start compiling bitstreams for this device soon.

#3) We have additional bitstreams (tribus and dmd-gr) coming shortly and have started working on putting together PHI2.

You should not direct link to software that bypasses a warning that must be applied prior to using that software.

Due to recent updates / changes to our platform all BCU-1525 owners require a BMC firmware update to use new and future bitstreams. If you have not already performed the update necessary to operate the 60Mh/s Lyra2z it is recommended you update your BMC to the most recent revision. You can find update instructions below.

Really? According to that mesage I quoted a firmware upgrade is required before running the bitstreams you linked. If it is "Required" then people would follow your link and run the bitstreams without doing the required update and would have the streams fail.

IOW, don't bypass pre-requisets when linking.

Can you please make sure these additional bitstreams are setup for hosted customers to use asap? We're still stuck with lyra2z that's essentially worthless now.

Some of the temperature sensors of my BCU-1525 seem pretty messed up.
At idle, I see on Vivado Lab Edition:

TEMPERATURE: 92.7
LOWER_OT: 93.5
UPPER_OT:98.4
MAX_TEMPERATURE: -280.2
MIN_TEMPERATURE: 229.1

This cannot be right as the card itself is not even warm to the touch at all.
I confirmed this problem both bitstreams that are available with minerator.
I hope this is not a hardware defect... Could it be a problem with the SYSMON components
of these bitstreams?

[astraleureka]

That's probably fahrenheit based on the max/min? Or perhaps there's an offset.

[zawawa]

That's probably fahrenheit based on the max/min? Or perhaps there's an offset.

Vivado shows different values when the unit is switched to Fahrenheit, though.
I got similar values with minerator, so I ruled out interpretive errors on my side.
It's pretty annoying as minerator throttles down as a result and the hashrate drops to 1/10 of
what it is supposed to be.

Are you air cooled? water cooled?

What version of Ubuntu do you guys recommend?

And how can I boot into Windows from Linux? Someone said sudo grub-reboot 4 worked for them but not for me.. I just got the standard version of ubuntu from the ubuntu website. It's been extremely frustrating for a linux noob

Also what remote desktop for linux do you guys recommend? Chrome remote desktop didn't work for me, it needed me to open up and set it up after every reboot to connect.. Teamviewer gave me issues too

Use Ubuntu 18.04 which is a Long Term Support release.
You don't need remote desktop on Linux. You can just run a terminal with ssh.

if you want a remote desktop like experience, just enable the desktop sharing in the settings and you can VNC into it.

Amazing news! It feels like we're getting over a hump that was holding back bitstreams: now full steam ahead!

Refunds have all been sent out last I spoke to SQRL (last week). SQRL is busy packaging and shipping acorns, water blocks have been received (as I understand it), the current hold up is waiting on more BCU-1525's to arrive from Xilinx. As far as I know those BCU's have shipped and are expected any time.

Thanks for keeping this thread updated.

I'm here waiting for the coming day when I can post an announcement about the bitstreams community developers have created and are releasing

Looks like that day finally happened.
