This card seems to be a bit picky sometimes, if it's that I wonder whether specifying a few options in the miner settings panel would help - try setting work size to 256 and use the manual flag-g 1then start overHmm the preferences are a little unchecked in this version as it's alongside the beta development and I know there have been a lot of big bugs in previous gridseed versions I'm still ironing out, sorry about that!I think the cg…Can you try mining a different coin type please? They have different backends so we could identify which is causing the problem this way. Are you mining BTC there?cgminer should auto detect all of them, I forgot to say you need to specify --dual for cpu miner if you get cgminer running first - if you add the --dual flag I think it might autodetect all the devices but you may need to use--gc3355=/dev/cu.…Have you tried the gridseed version that's not on the download page? I'm hoping it's fixed in this one!http://downloads.fabulouspanda.co…It would be easier to write a whole new app but unfortunately I don't have experience coding for Linux
Awesome, glad to hear that's running! I guess it's quite picky about the flags. This is all valuable new information
Please make sure to conduct the tests with one device connected directly not via the hub too!Someone else has confirmed it working with the manual flags--freq=600 --gc3355=/dev/cu.usbmodemfd1421replacing the device path of course. So if that doesn't work we just need to look at the drivers i…Were you running the CPU miner after the kextunload? I'm not sure which way it should be but it might want those drivers intact and the ftdi chip driverweird that it doesn't pick up on the device at all without the dual flag - try removing --dual but adding--gc3355=/dev/cu.usbmodem23432replacing /dev/cu.usbmodem... with your device which you can get if you open Term…Can you please try this version and let me know whether it's working for you?I think…I've altered cgminer now:http://downloads.fabulouspanda.co.uk/MacMiner-gridseed5.zipIt's also worth changing the -F 800 flag to -F 600 until it's working, that sets the frequency which changes the hash rateDoes the cpu miner start hashing at all? I'll compile a slightly altered version of the cgminer to try.Looks like a good start, does it start hashing? You may need to remove the --dual flag if you haven't started cgminer BTC mining on it firstAh, I'll look into the flags not sticking, thanks for the heads up!Did you try the CPU Miner in the new version?I'm guessing the new cgminer for gridseed wants the drivers unloaded so open Terminal a…Please try this version which should fix the CPU Miner issueCan you try with just one plugged in directly please? I know these miners are fussy with hubs with surge protection so best to try that until just one is working.I'll recompile the cpu miner now and we can give that another sho…I've just updated the cgminer version as gridseed updated theirs so it's worth grabbing the latest versionThe bfgminer doesn't work with the 5 chip devices yet unfortunately, but you may get the CGMiner window with manual flags like this:--gridseed-options=baud=115200,freq=800,chips=5,modules=1,usefifo=0,btc=16 --hotplug=0What does the speed show in the log? It's probably actually 47Kh which is ~0.05MhThe second graph show when you would receive a payout and what that payout would be each time a block is found check the last blocks tab hereHey Tami, is this the dual miner usb stick or the infinity 5 chip device? The latter wasn't working in the last version but it's just been updated and I'd like to hear whether it works with that:You should use the FPGA/ASIC window or the CG window which should both pick up the fury miners - GPU miner would need some meddling with manual flags
in [IceFury] Need some assistance to figure out how to know if I'm up and running or not?

Thanks, I did get that one. Slightly mystified that it all looks so normal :S Will take a good look at all the interactions with that file…The way P2Pool works you find payout shares and the P2Pool network finds blocks - those two things need to coincide to generate a payoutHave you checked out basic usage here?you need a pool to mine, so search for something like 'Bitcoin pool' for one to make an account withAre you running it through slush's proxy or bfgminer? If you run it through bfgminer in MacMiner it hooks up automatically, but you can't add it as a networked miner is has to go through the proxyUnfortunately the time to block on P2Pool is about 2 days at the moment which means that's how long it takes between payouts, you are showing up on the graphs though!
