    So when the first person says "I'm trying to run 25 mini-rigs in my Mom's basement, and cgminer keeps crashing." we can say see post so and so from 2013.  lol

    thanks

    It's a lot more likely to be something along the lines of... "I'm trying to run 25 mini-rigs in my Mom's basement using cgminer, but when I power on more than two, the circuit breaker trips and the computer I'm running cgminer on crashes until I flip the breaker back on..  Why does cgminer keep doing that??"

    Please excuse that i did not read all 580 pages, but is there a way to influence how much devices CGMiner shows?
    I have some USB miners on my CGMiner 3.3.1 rig, but it only shows 10 devices maximum, often less than 7.
    I have resized the window, but this only lengthens the lower list, I have also noticed that some units get detected at start, the rest comes after a few seconds via "hotplug detect".
    My system is a Win 7 Pro x64, i have no GPU (using the nogpu exe), 12 USB Erupters with Zadig drivers, planning on some more (till screen is full).
    Hashrate is as expected, List shows accepted hashes from all units.

    You need to resize the window CGMiner opens with.  Right click the title bar on the window and select properties- change the length to something bigger.  Click OK and relaunch.  

    I was able to display over 30 devices this way when I was running cgminer in Win7.

    As written in my post, this does not change anything.
    I just get a longer lower list, the middle part with the Unit stats stays the length it gets at startup, which sometimes is only 6 or 7, sometimes 10.
    Then after a few seconds the rest gets detected, but the middle part of the display remains unchanged, lengthwise.

    I start CGminer in a cmd-file with --usb :12, but that changes nothing.

    Because live window resize on windows leads to random crashes, we temporarily disabled it in the current cgminer code. Any devices that hotplug after startup on windows will not show up, this is why you're not getting them all. Live resize for hotplugged devices only works on linux at the moment. We're slowly chipping away at whatever might be causing it, but it may end up simply being the "pdcurses" library we use on windows that is buggy.

    You need to change the default settings.  Right click on the cgminer window, then go down to Defaults - 2nd from bottom.  Increase the window size there.  The next time you open the cgminer window, it should open at the new size.

    I do, and it does. But the length of the middle part of the window gets determined at startup, when (god knows why) not all units are detected, and stays like that. sometimes at 5 units, sometimes at 10.
    My Window is full screen height, and shows results "of the last day" because the list is so long, but devices stats are missing.

    @ckolivas:
    thanks for the info, so at least i know it's a feature, not a bug. Wink
    Could you please think about the menu "reset" feature to rethink the section sizes? That'd be great.

    For erupter/icarus problems, try current git (with a USB2 hub)

    I do know that Raspbian fails badly.

    What the details of the problem are is that since the Icarus devices never return a finished message, if they don't find a share, they never return anything.
    This is of course expected, however, it would seem that certain linux kernels on certain hardware do not support a usb request timeout on USB1.1 devices (yes weird isn't it)
    On these kernels, cgminer simply never gets a reply form the call to libusb (or more correctly, the call to libusb never returns)

    I've found on my RPi when I switched from Raspbian to Arch the problem went away.
    http://www.kano-kun.net/?p=87

    Have the issues I see in this thread seem to be focused around those Block Erupters. Seems they're more trouble than they're worth?
    Worth? Smiley
    Way too much and return way too little.
    They currently mine only 0.00640097 BTC a day ... ouch!

    They would be properly priced at $25, NOT $300. Just an expensive toy.

    There's a bug in there somewhere which only recently got fixed in the git master code, so no official release has the fix. If you're building your own cgminer you can try it from git. Usually trying a different pool will make them go away as a workaround - it's a temporarily blocked network connection and pools with more resources don't suffer from it. There is also a stratum disconnect issue on windows from which cgminer never recovers, no idea if this one has been fixed with the latest changes or not.

    I tried running cgminer on windows 8 for the first time today and I didn't have any luck. It works fine for btc but I can't get scrypt to work. It stopped responding on windows. Is there a known issue with it?

    Yes. Try lower intensity and shaders/thread concurency. Also monitor temperature and power consumption.
    SHA mining is pretty safe, SCRYPT can hand windows.

There is also a stratum disconnect issue on windows from which cgminer never recovers, no idea if this one has been fixed with the latest changes or not.

    Thanks, that's the only thing that correlates. Of my ten miners the ones on bigger LTC never seem to hang, but, the ones mining microcoins do.
    I'm trying to install Git and pull the latest changes, but, git pull isn't working. I did the following (from Windows-Build readme.txt) and it seemed (me neophyte) to work fine:

    Install Git into MinGW/MSYS:
    http://msysgit.github.io/, click Downloads tab for the latest "Portable" git archive.
    Copy the git*.exe files from the bin folder and put them into \MinGW\bin.
    Copy the share\git-core folder to \MinGW\share.
    To test if it is working, open a MinGW shell and type the following:
         git config --global core.autocrlf false (note: one time run only)
         git clone git://github.com/ckolivas/cgminer.git

    $ git clone git://github.com/ckolivas/cgminer.git
    Cloning into 'cgminer'...
    remote: Counting objects: 15869, done.
    remote: Compressing objects: 100% (7353/7353), done.
    remote: Total 15869 (delta 10238), reused 14028 (delta 8504)
    Receiving objects: 100% (15869/15869), 10.79 MiB | 44.00 KiB/s, done.
    Resolving deltas: 100% (10238/10238), done.

    Then I tried permutations of the following and nothing worked:
    If you just want to update the source after you have already cloned, type:
         git pull
       "git pull" did not work for me. Try the following which does the same thing:
         git fetch && git merge FETCH_HEAD
    Now you can get the latest source directly from github.

    $ git pull
    git: 'pull' is not a git command. See 'git --help'.

    $ git pull origin master
    git: 'pull' is not a git command. See 'git --help'.

    $ git fetch && git merge FETCH_HEAD
    fatal: Not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git
    ghghghfgh
