bfgminer doesnt work well w/ gridseeds on this pool....they eventually stop hashing. At least that was my experience w/ my gridseed blades.
I compiled a different miner that works on an RPI which works fine on this pool and theres a fork for the gridseeds for it.

I think it was this one: https://github.com/siklon/cpuminer-gc3355
Precompiled binaries (for win and linux) are listed at the bottom of the readme on that page.

If you have a raspberry pi I would try Minera. It supports the small gridseeds. But I only ran it on litecoinpool. I never tried it here. Anyway something you might try.

think that just runs bfgminer..... but could be wrong. maybe it runs the extremely dated cgminer for gridseeds.
btw, the cpuminer I mentioned also was far more effecient, it had slightly higher hashrate then the much older bfgminer/cgminer versions do.

I loved runnin my gridseed blades, sucks they are so unprofitable now unless you have free power =( ... otherwise I would be running them still. For now, they sit in their pretty little boxes.

That's what's interesting about miners - you never know when they are obsolete.

We have several miners that haven't been turned on in months. But every year or so litecoin profitability rises to 15 cents, and they make tons of money, so throwing them away doesn't make sense when you can just store them somewhere until they are profitable again.

looking for help setting up prohashing and gminer on Raspberry Pi to mine Doge on my Gridseed ASIC mining rig. i'm doing it now through GPU Nvidia mining on my computer.

can anyone help me set this up on raspberry pi or send a link on how to set it up?

Thanks!
