    Hi All.

    I just wanted to let everyone know that I've added a MtGox Bitcoin price ticker to the cgminerLCDStats script. I even added a cool colored arrow to indicate "price direction".
    :: snip ::


    I have been using this latest version of LCD Stats for a couple of days now. It works great, but after a day and a half or so, it freezes up, and I get the error described here: https://bt.irlbtc.com/view/290511.msg3134240#msg3134240

    The miner is still running, it's just the LCD Stats that becomes unstable

    MinePeon 0.2.2

    Yeah, I duplicated this issue with one of my LCD units. It turned out to be the USB cable where it attached to the display itself. Once I really looked at it, I realized it didn't fit very tightly. It apparently looses connection intermittently, and cgminerLCDStats starts to throw that exception because it can't find the device.

    I "fixed" my USB cable by crimping down very slightly on the outer metal shell of the connector, so it made a tighter fit. Others have said they had to replace the USB cable that shipped with their units.

    I emailed the people selling them on e-bay about the issue. They said they would ship replacement cables to those that request them.

    Easily see your cgminer status with my cgminerLCDStats app:  http://cardcomm.github.io/cgminerLCDStats/
