Minera Gridseed G-Blade and Zeus Hurricane

[BLincs]

I'm having issues with Minera on my Raspberry Pi 2 using my G-Blade and Zeus Hurricane. ( yeah I know they are older asic miners but my brother passed them down to me when he got his new hardware I have another zeus hurricane but I'm waiting on another psu to use it) I'm having issues on PH where my miner disconnects from the pool completely as if the pool is dead every time the pool finds a new block. I don't have this issue when I was mining on my windows rig.

my config:

--scrypt --scan-serial gridseed:auto --gridseed-options freq=825,chips=40 --scan-serial zeus:auto --zeus-chips 64 --zeus-clock 330

This happens at about the same time every time I run my miners on minera ... I'm at a loss.

[ZiGen]

Just use Windoze than...

Just use Windoze than...

the windows rig was just a temp setup as it is my main computer and is used for work not to mention my office runs hot so I needed to relocate the miners to a cooler part of the home. hence the pi setup

[ZiGen]

Have to look back in my computers to find some old setup/config for the Blades...Also if I remember properly Zeus miners use a different DRIVER(S) for the rs232 interface than the Greedseeds ...

[djliss]

for the gridseeds this seems to be pretty stable Gridseed blades and minera

My gridseeds was stored in the closet for a while I was hit by the cryptsy crap. Returned my pi had the old 6.1 image and it was working perfectly fine. Then I updated to 8.1 and have flashed it and other things several times and cannot even get minera to read my gridseeds at all. It's an issue with minera I know it is he won't admit it and I have tried rebuilding the miner and other things still doesn't work. So I have an old p4 PC running cgminer and it works fine as long as you replace the driver with zidiag or whatever it's called.

yeah i had issues with 8.1 at first but config i'm running seems to be good now, had to reset the stats a few times to get it sorted and had a few issues with SD cards with not starting properly, wrote it to the noobs card i had in the end and haven't had any issues since.

this is my json config using cpuminer

Miner will start with this syntax:

/usr/bin/screen -dmS cpuminer /var/www/minera/minera-bin/minerd --gc3355-detect --freq=838 --gc3355-chips=40 -c /var/www/minera/conf/miner_conf.json
