you can't use them together

Tried cgminer 3.5.0, installed the drivers using zadig, but cgminer wouldn't detect the BF device.  Gave up, installed the previous driver and went back to bfgminer.  So far only bfgminer32 ver 3.2.0 as in the guide above works with a low H error rate.  It is detected with bfgminer64 ver 3.4.0, but the H error rate is very high.  On my single BF device I could not get higher hash rate than about 2.26 GH/sec.

switched to your specific  Raspbian Wheezy Setup Bfgminer build and still only getting 2.3GH

Look like these are performing 20% lower than spec.

Yes cgminer should hot plug it.


Fixed, thanks.



Currently I don't think so, you will need to specify the com port.

Can you please try minepeon 0.2.4 on your raspberry pi. Arch is a lot better then raspbian. Also how is it connected up is it directly connected to the raspi?

Tried ubuntu x386 12.10 with bfgminer, however it failed to detect the BF device  (used -Sdev/ttyACM0)
previously also tried cgminer 3.6.6.1 on Win7, but this did not detect the BF miner (driver was installed using zadig, and showed up in Device Manager)
back to bfgminer 3.2.0 on Win7...
hashing rate is still 2.26 GH, tried on 2 pools (Slush and BTC Guild), the bfgminer display is consistent with what the pools report.

OK - I have ver 3.2.0 but see no file #mine.bat.  Does the # stand for something else?  I have never seen a file start with #.

Well...

I compiled the latest revision of CGMiner on MinePeon 0.2.4 w/options --disable-opencl --disable-adl --enable-bflsc --enable-bitforce --enable-icarus --enable-modminer --enable-ztex --enable-avalon --enable-bitfury (same options as the tutorial in Rasbian Wheezy). The devices were never detected, so I switched to Raspbian Wheezy, latest updated, first trying CGMiner per the .DEB package and instructions on the tutorial, results were the same, no devices were detected under CGMiner (they would show in lsusb).



I then uninstalled the CGMiner package (dpkg -r cgminer) and installed BFGMiner per tutorial instructions, after which the devices were detected. This is a hub that I can easily run 8 ASIC Erupters, so it should have no power issues running 8 BlueFuries, however I started off with 5 and decided to let them hash awhile to see what kind of rates I was getting...

Granted, I'm not getting any hardware errors (which is awesome),  but also not seeing GH/s rate I should be seeing. Now with this being said, I am going to try a few different pools and see what results I have. As well, I'm going to try to make a build on Raspbian of CGMiner (since I have yet to get CGMiner to work with the devices and apparently CGMiner so far, from what I've read has the best results...).



EDIT:
Just made a fresh build of CGMiner on Raspbian, still won't detect any devices, I also notice that CGMiner disables all the devices as I tried to use BFGMiner after (which was working seconds before trying CGMiner) and get 'All devices disabled, cannot mine!'. I thought that was semi-interesting...

Congrats on getting this going.  I also could not get CGMiner to detect the BF device.  Your hash rates are similar to what I got, which is below the advertised  "Spec: Rated speed 2.6Gh/s. +/- 10%" 

Beastlymac - Where can I get a windows vista usb driver for blue fluries?  I tried loading the one included in the directions for windows 7 but they wouldn't install. It looks like the bf1.ini file is a text file with some descriptive lines.  Is it possible to build one of these that will work?

Well...

I spent most of the day trying different OS's on different machines (Ubuntu 12.04.3, Raspbian, Arch Linux, Windows7, OSX), different USB Hubs (Rosewill RHB-500, D-Link DUB-H7, Sateshi 12-Port, a few Belkin 7-ports, GearHead 7-port), different physical machines (3 different laptops (Win/Linux/Apple),a iMac, a VM on iMac, a VM on Win7, raspberryPi).

From my experience:
On any platform, from a compiled build or a pre-compiled executable, CGMiner just doesn't work, it never detects the devices and shuts down.

Thus far, the *only* configuration that works for me is BFGMiner 3.0.99 on Raspbian (RaspberryPi). After doing all my testing on different machines, different hubs, different OS's, I ended up back at the RaspberryPi, upon starting BFGMiner up after all my testing, I'm seeing an average of 1.8GH/s per device (currently still 5 on the HUB, I've tried more/less it doesn't change).

Conclusion:
I'm fairly certain the most of the issues being seen are software related, either the firmware is just, well, not ready or there's some missing connection that everyone seems to be having.

As a developer (granted I moved away from os-apps long ago), I would highly suggest you releasing the firmware to the public so that other developers can assist on the issues. I'm not stating the people involved aren't doing everything they can (as I'm sure LukeJr & ckolivas are doing what they can to fix the issues from within their software), but "a different set of eyes" can usually always assist indirectly (sometimes directly). As usually questions get raised as to the methods being used (etc), which will cause the original developer to see the light on things that could be the cause of issues.

Either way, I stay optimistic these are software issues, not hardware issues.
