Updated my cgminer, Got it on a different hub with just one BE right now. It's running smooth so far, I'll check it in 30 minutes and add another BE. This version of CGminer may have fixed the timeout issues I had before. I may try this on my tablet later on and see if that fixes I had on that too. Very promising.

Update: Added another BE, Spat out LIBUSB errors after a while. Fun.

Which libusb errors?

[OtaconEmmerich]

I tried again, Running fine now on all 6 BE's. I think Hotplugging or User error(I had a bunch of instances of screen running because I'm stupid) caused the error. Gunna let it run all night now. Good work on the new code ckolivas.

[P_Shep]

Yeah, I should add the caveat... no hot-plugging! the OS/kernel just doesn't support it.

[OtaconEmmerich]

Hmm, tempted to get get this going on my ASUS WL-520gU now. The million dollar question is, is 16MB of RAM enough? my N16 is using 43MB right now.

[P_Shep]

With a swap drive it might, but you'd be pushing it some.

Upped to 3.6.3

https://www.dropbox.com/s/h3hsknaf1fdw2rk/cgminer_3.6.3_mipsel.ipk

All working with my 6 BFL SC singles
CPU usage on the RT-N16 is around 10% for everything (cgminer + OS + whatever else is running).
Total power consumption of that lot is about 1560W

(Remember: Hot-plugging does not work. Have to restart cgminer to find new units.)

[nitrox]

help.
when start cgminer show this message

/opt/etc/init.d/S99cgminer: /opt/etc/init.d/S99cgminer: 50: optlog: not found

and cgminer stop working , i use cgminer_3.6.3_mipsel.ipk

later I'll try older version

[P_Shep]

hmm, wonder why you're missing that.
Anyway, I think you can just change all instances of optlog to 'echo'.

[OtaconEmmerich]

Ick, Just got a(-7) LIBUSB_ERROR_TIMEOUT loop for the second time in a row tonight. Which means I have to restart the router to get it all going again. I updated to 3.6.3 not long ago, but why are errors showing up a day or so later? I wonder if that Seg fault I got a day ago mattered..

[nitrox]

i get cgminer_3.6.3_mipsel.ipk working normal.
i changed openwrt with dd-wrt.

now can't start API.
i add to my cgminer.conf

Code:

"api-listen" : true,
"api-port" : "4028",
"api-allow" : "W:192.168.1.0/24" 

but i get only this on miner.php:

Code:

Error getting device list: ERR: socket connect(0) failed 

any ideas to fix it

[P_Shep]

You could try starting cgminer manually, and having a look at the messages during start up to see if it's enabling the API.
Can't say what's going on there. Looks like it should work. Firewall issue?

[nitrox]

logfile

Code:

Illegal instruction

add: how to start manually cgminer ?
i think first

Code:

service cgminer stop

then what ?

[P_Shep]

then manually:

cgminer -c /opt/etc/cgminer.conf

[nitrox]

i get this :

Code:

root@MINER:~# cgminer -c /opt/etc/cgminer.conf
Illegal instruction
root@MINER:~#

ADD:
i think some lib is missing , i get "screen" just in case but no result even after restart

[P_Shep]

type:
unset LD_LIBRARY_PATH
unset LD_PRELOAD

first, then cgminer ...

[nitrox]

got :

Code:

root@MINER:~# unset LD_LIBRARY_PATH
root@MINER:~# unset LD_PRELOAD
root@MINER:~# cgminer -c /opt/etc/cgminer.conf
Illegal instruction
root@MINER:~#

and always get "Illegal instruction"      

ADD:
this

Code:

unset LD_LIBRARY_PATH
unset LD_PRELOAD

is included in cgminer.sh

[P_Shep]

That is odd.
It starts with cgminer.sh, but not manually? I don't get it. That's weird.

[nitrox]

i use that manual to get OPT on my Asus WL520gU
http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Optware%2C_the_Right_Way

and use 2GB flash drive (256MB - swap , other left for OPT approximately 1.7GB )
every thing is normal but cgminer not
