It has an HDMI port. Anything with an HDMI port (like your TV) should be fine.

I think most people SSH into the Pi from their computer, rather than attaching a monitor/keyboard.

Anyone try out the CuBox-i? Comes with Ubuntu (and android). Do you think I could compile from cgminer from github on it? It's ARM based like the Pi.

Where can I find instructions on how to do that? I'm completely new to Linux.

Looking for some insight -

I have one miner that immediately posts HW errors and will not submit shares. Possibly a DOA unit? Does anyone have experience with this issue? Can it be fixed or am I out of luck?

I'm using Scripta and a Raspberry Pi as a controller and my other 9 work perfectly, so its a bummer that this one isn't cooperating.

Have you tried connecting another miner to the same port/cable? Or connecting the presumed faulty miner to known good power supply and USB cables?

I have one dead miner but it doesn't produce anything at all, not even HW errors. Will be sending it back for replacement.

This is potentially great news!  I've been having stability issues and set a cron job to do a reboot every 6 hours.  I've applied the update and disabled the cron job on 1 of 2 of my Pi's and i'll monitor over the next 24 hours.

Oh and just a recommendation, i've been using JuiceSSH for Android to remotely manage my RPI's and it works great.  I even set up some port forwarding on my router so I can remote access from anywhere I have cell service!  Has come in handy on several occasions (issuing a quick reboot command when needed).

Yep, and I've tried to run it through CGminer and CPUminer in windows, used different cables and plugged it directly into a PC usb port. Same behavior. Bummer.

I'm using similar ARM based Odroid U3 myself. Everything compiles and runs nicely. No problems at all! I've tried compiling cgminer, bfgminer, cpuminer, using scripta etc.

Nope, I just executed the 2 commands and performed a reboot afterwards.  BTW, I double checked and the slub debug command in the cmdline.txt persists through the update (I only mention it because I saw cmdline.txt scroll by as one of the files that was touched in the patch).

Just recompiled and checked my cmdline.txt, was missing the stability fix.  Changed and now cgminer starts, but I get some HW errors.  Power usage is only 140 watts compared to 240 running cpuminer.  It seems some miners are lazy and rarely accept shares, they all eventually start but some already have over 1000 accepted while some have 32.  I also am getting many more rejects.  I'll stick with cpuminer until thebugs get sorted.

Here is my command to launch:

screen -dmS 1 sudo ./cgminer --scrypt -o stratum+tcp://us-west2.multipool.us:7777 -u myuser.gs1 -p x --gridseed-options=baud=115200,freq=800,chips=5 --hotplug 0

Sounds like either cgminer isn't seeing all your miners or the RPI isnt seeing them.  I would try running the lsusb -t command to verify all of your miners are recognized by the RPI as a first step.

If you're using the 10 port hub that came with the Lightning Asic kits the ports with comm/data are the miner ports (should be 1-6, then 7 is Class=hub under which you'll see another 1-4).

Thanks for all your help.  I am using the monoprice 24 port hub, with another 7 port hub daisy chained.  Cpuminer sees all of the devices so I assume cgminer would as well.  28 total gridseeds

screen -dmS 1 sudo ./cgminer --scrypt -o stratum+tcp://us-west2.multipool.us:7777 -u myuser.gs1 -p x --gridseed-options=baud=115200,freq=800,chips=5 --hotplug 0

When I run lsusb -t I get this:

Question about SSH:

I can figure out how to SSH into the Ubuntu box, and start it mining. If I close the connection, what happens to the terminal process that is running the miners? If I SSH back into the computer, does it reopen that window?

I still do not have the ubuntu box fully set up. I was able to simultaneously open multiple SSH windows into the Ubuntu box, and it started me thinking.

Has anyone tried a large amount of gridseeds on cgminer?  I am trying 28 of them on a rasberry pi and it stops accepting shares and eventually crashes after about 2 minutes.  Running 28 instances of cpuminer works great, stable, and multipool reports right about where the hash rate should be.

Mine's been stable since upgrading to the "next" kernel (3.10.30+):
sudo apt-get install rpi-update
sudo BRANCH=next rpi-update

This is potentially great news!  I've been having stability issues and set a cron job to do a reboot every 6 hours.  I've applied the update and disabled the cron job on 1 of 2 of my Pi's and i'll monitor over the next 24 hours.

Oh and just a recommendation, i've been using JuiceSSH for Android to remotely manage my RPI's and it works great.  I even set up some port forwarding on my router so I can remote access from anywhere I have cell service!  Has come in handy on several occasions (issuing a quick reboot command when needed).

I tried that and now cgminer just crashes on startup.  Did you have to recompile cgminer after updating?

Nope, I just executed the 2 commands and performed a reboot afterwards.  BTW, I double checked and the slub debug command in the cmdline.txt persists through the update (I only mention it because I saw cmdline.txt scroll by as one of the files that was touched in the patch).

-EMoomjean

Just recompiled and checked my cmdline.txt, was missing the stability fix.  Changed and now cgminer starts, but I get some HW errors and some miners dont accept any shares.  Power usage is only 140 watts compared to 240 running cpuminer.

Sounds like either cgminer isn't seeing all your miners or the RPI isnt seeing them.  I would try running the lsusb -t command to verify all of your miners are recognized by the RPI as a first step.

If you're using the 10 port hub that came with the Lightning Asic kits the ports with comm/data are the miner ports (should be 1-6, then 7 is Class=hub under which you'll see another 1-4).

-EMoomjean

Thanks for all your help.  I am using the monoprice 24 port hub, with another 7 port hub daisy chained.  Cpuminer sees all of the devices so I assume cgminer would as well.  28 total gridseeds

screen -dmS 1 sudo ./cgminer --scrypt -o stratum+tcp://us-west2.multipool.us:7777 -u myuser.gs1 -p x --gridseed-options=baud=115200,freq=800,chips=5 --hotplug 0

When I run lsusb -t I get this:

The command line argument you are using looks like the cgminer for windows version (boy do I spend too much time reading all these threads to spot that).  I don't use the chips=5 or --hotplug 0 variables and mine works fine.  Its a stab in the dark, but worth a try...  (though i'll admit your USB topology is slightly different so hotplug *might* be needed, though I doubt it).

Edit:  Out of curiosity, why are you daisy chaining the hubs?  The RPI has 2 USB ports (excluding the power port)  Why not plug the 24-port into one of the RPI's USB ports and the 7-port into the other?

I still do not have the ubuntu box fully set up. I was able to simultaneously open multiple SSH windows into the Ubuntu box, and it started me thinking.

Hop over to the purchase and setup guide: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=494625.0

Then come back here once you have everything set.

You use screen to run the miner sessions and keep them running after you close the ssh session.
