Do they still work one at a time?
Not in the GS Hub, but they do work individually in the hub that was using.

The word you are looking for is "power circuits" or "circuitry".
I was thinking inductors but didn't think that was right, I could've put circuit instead lol. Not in the GS Hub, but they do work individually in the hub that was using.
I would resinstall raspbian direct from the raspberry pi foundation and then follow the instructions on this post:- https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5053833.msg50968875#msg50968875That's the only advice I have left to give. If it still doesn't work after that then its out of my knowledge base.

I wonder if that was the problem the whole time? Maybe that fan is on the bad side and drawing more current than it should?
Anyway, glad your up and running finally.

If the fan was pulling extra juice and also plugged into Port 1 or Port D it might have messed up the power going to the hub chip. Any other ports should be pretty much bulletproof.
If you plug the hub in and run 'lsusb' it should read out a Terminus FE2.1 7-port USB hub on the bus.

We need a FAQ section on the first page of this thread for the common issues that arise. Or simply a format of questions that get answered so we have a good idea of the system rather than “it doesnt work, whats wrong?”.
Maybe something along the lines of:-
1). What OS are you using? Windows,Linux variant?
2). What version of cgminer are you running? Vh’s or standard?
3). What usb hub is being used?
4). Is the hub mains powered? If so what is the power/amperage rating?
5). How have you connected the hub? Usb2 or 3 port?
6). What is the specific problem you are having?
Just an idea. May help speed up the diagnosis of problems.
Don forget to mention the ./cgminer it has been several times now (inclusing myselve), this came along.

I definitely forgot the "./cgminer" when I originally set up CGMiner, sidehack noticed it in my startup file and corrected me in post 1720 of this thread.

They're guaranteed for performance at 200MHz so anything above that without adjusting voltage is a bonus. If you tweak the volts up a little you might get it to fall in line with the rest of 'em.

The little potentiometer bottom right of the stick (when its plugged in) very small clockwise rotation will up the voltage.

No problem. Just don’t get greedy with it ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) On a different note. But still vaguely related to the gekkos (seeing as most run them on a Pi). Does anyone have a decent UPS for the Pi? I keep having momentary power outages which obviously turn the pi off but can't find a setting to get it to auto power on after a power outage, so thought a UPS might work. Trouble is becuase my pi 4 is in an Argon One case and I can't fit a HAT to it so the UPS would need to be external. I've contemplated a powerbank, but most ive read about don't seem to work as I would like. Some sort of USB Type-C passthrough with a battery connected would be ideal. Anyone have any ideas?

Yea i saw these. I was hoping for a type C connector though so it can run straight through to the pi without having to switch out plugs etc.

So what you're saying, in a thread about USB-powered products designed by a guy who's also currently working on lithium battery projects including both chargers and voltage boosters, is that it'd be awful handy if someone made a tiny USB-in USB-out UPS with up to, say, 3A handling to fully power a Pi 4?
Hm. Might be worth looking into.

I don't know what kind of case you have on your pi, but what about the PiJuice? https://uk.pi-supply.com/products/pijuice-standardI can't use this because of the case that I use.
