Oh, I see what you were asking better now. I am still running the U3 in the GPU window. I haven't had time to mess around with it a lot to try the consolidated method again.
Interesting. I just had to do my occasional reboot & even though only one of the UART addresses matched, it fired up all five of the U2s (the U3 wasn't plugged in). I guess -noauto doesn't do much.
That's interesting ... I just rebooted from the memory leak & 1.5.25b started up first, so it grabbed the U2s (the FPGA/ASIC window auto starts). It is getting 11+GH/s out of them. I guess I'll leave it running & see if it behaves.
The U3 has been running pretty stably lately. I haven't had to reset the device but once in the last 48 hours or so, & didn't have to restart the app at all.
I may have to play with them again to see, I've slept with them. I think it was more that they weren't detected & wouldn't start up. I can't recall for sure if I tried it with only them connected. That should be testable tomorrow though.
So, the problem with running 2 MacMiner instances, is that they both use the same prefs and ASIC Miner options. So, when .25b restarted, it used the long list of miners, missing 44. Is there a way to separate the prefs?
I get ~33Gh on the U3, plus ~10Gh on the 5 U2s. I think that's about 50% of what the U3 is rated at, so I'll have to look at those switches again once things seems to be behaving.
Yeah, I just had antminer checked. With it unchecked nothing detects.
-S noauto -S antminer:/dev/cu.SLAB_USBtoUART gives me one U2 (which makes sense). Amusingly, it was the one that was most often having issues detecting on aut…
Weird. Now I just have the U2s plugged in. It seems to be detecting 4 at most, and the ones it doesn't detect vary. Then it stops again. *sigh* <wahhhhhhh>Why does this have to be so hard.</wahhhhhhh>

I removed all the manual flags, basically, I'm just telling it to try to detect antminer in the settings window.
First try was no good. So I restarted the U3 too. Then it ran a little, but ended up stopping. So, maybe it is bad. *sigh* I even invested in a better power supply for it.
