Been going back in and out of trying to figure this out for about 2 days now..
--stratum-port just flat out doesnt work for me.
I can start bfgminer with the setting and port, but i just get the SSM: no 2d upstream error continuously scrolling. I can telnet to the stratum port and submit commands which do show up in the miners monitor screen, but the Antminers dont see it as a stratum pool that is alive.
I can probably avoid having to do this all together if I could get BFGminer working on the OpenWRT of the Antminer S1
That error means your pools can't be proxied. Try using another pool.

I tried solo-mining by running BFGMiner on the Beaglebone Black of a KNC Jupiter once, and the GBT protocol ate all the processor and wanted a lot more. I don't know what embedded h/w the Antminers use, but it probably doesn't have the horsepower to run GBT. Must have been a long time ago? GBT should perform as well as stratum now.

Yeah, it was a long time ago. At the time I posted about it on here, and you told me that GBT was not optimized, and that accounted for the issue. I guess it got optimized since then ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) Thanks.

Hi Luke, do you know if BFGMiner 5.2.0 is the latest version that get installed in ubuntu using apt -get ? Ive been searching through the github readmes and also google and can't find any info on getting 5.4.1 on ubuntu. Im using Ubuntu 15.10. I want to see if 5.4.1 fixes the issues im having with my BFL Monarch.

So can somebody let me know how to install the latest version of BFGminer on Ubuntu ? I can only get 5.2.0 to install.
That's how do it on my pi's with Ubuntu trusty or Ubuntu 1.5 cd /opt sudo apt-get -y install git-core build-essential autoconf automake libtool pkg-config libcurl4-gnutls-dev libjansson-dev uthash-dev libncursesw5-dev libudev-dev libusb-1.0-0-dev libevent-dev libmicrohttpd-dev libc-bin sudo git clone https://github.com/luke-jr/bfgminer.git cd /opt/bfgminer sudo ./autogen.sh sudo chmod +x ./configure sudo ./configure CFLAGS="-O2" --enable-scrypt --enable-broad-udevrules --disable-other-drivers --enable-icarus --enable-zeusminer --enable-gridseed --enable-bitmain sudo make sudo ldconfig lsusb sudo ./bfgminer --version i use sudo because i don't do it at root, i have a user set up for sudo use with non root. The antminers can run GBT with bfg with np.

long time appreciator and respector of lukejr bfgminer, however, i am running into an issue with a laptop that i darin boot n nuke and installed ubuntu and upgraded. so sudo su gets me in and apt-get install bfgminer. here comes the prob: when it loads, it says no device? yesm, i already tried add all and zus:all as well, but still no go here on ubuntu and bfgminer trying to connect the x3 thunder up. It seems to me that the unit IS NOT seeing the x3?, i have the usb plugged in. Is there a ubuntu terminal cmd i can call to see my devices, like in windows? Also is there a special driver needed or something to run the miner or something like windows grid seeds? So, yeah... polling the gurus... -im sure the guy who gets me going will get his choice of scrypt for a day or something with this beast.... appreciate ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

Hi everyone. Just made an account, have been mining (inefficiently) for about a week and I have not a single idear of what i'm doing for the most part. ATM i'm using very small minded miners, usb stick miners. I did however just get in a Bitmain Antminer U3. That's still a fairly unsophisticated miner but it's something to start with. I've been using BFG Miner V. 5.4.1 and it's been very good to me until now. I can't for the life of me get the program to recognize the Antminer U3 as a mining device. BFG does talk with the miner but like I said BFG doesn't know what to do with it yet. I've come here for help with this issue. I don't really know code either reading it or writing it (understanding it) so if I was told a command line to input into bfg miner I wouldn't know how to do that but if I figured it out it would have to be the exact thing i'd be entering into it. It could be adding code to cmd prompt which I've done for a different asic but that was because someone told me how to do it. By the way i'm running windows 10 (which makes this even more difficult and I don't have any virtual desktop/computer software to load it on a older version of windows or Linux or what have you. I'm also running a 64 bit version or windows. So I would be ever grateful if I could get some help on this subject. Thanks in advance.

At this time, they have not contacted me at all about this. Customers (or prospective ones) should inquire if they will provide a sample to work with.

I did however just get in a Bitmain Antminer U3. You should try the U3 support thread, probably get more advice there: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=827356.0But general consensus is the U3 is a terrible miner and you may or may not be able to get it to work, everyone has different results. The best advice for the U3 is to by an R1 from ASICpuppy with custom firmware and let it control the U3.

Hi Luke,
When my Antminer U3s stop hashing, I usually start with unplug and re-plug the USB cable to bring them up again while BFGMiner is still running. But sometime I have to unplug and re-plug the power as well while BFGMiner is running. And when the last action does not bring the miners into stable state, I have to stop BFGMiner, unplug USB cable first, unplug the power, plug the power, plug the USB cable and start BFGMiner again.
There seems to be different behaviours on the above 3 series of actions. While BFGMiner is running, after I unplug and re-plug the USB cable, does BFGMiner set the chip type, clock, voltage and timing when it realises that the miner is connecting again? How about if I also unplug and re-plug the power while BFGMiner is running? Does it behave the same like when I unplug and re-plug only the USB cable?
Cheers,
Anto

That error means your pools can't be proxied. Try using another pool. Cant be proxied? I'm trying this in a solo mining setup at a local wallet. i CAN get BFGminer to do an http-port proxy but not stratum to the local wallet. When using the http-port, my Antminer S1 wont connect at all.

What exact software/version? http-port is getwork, which is significantly different from stratum.
