Hum I had to change pool from solo to de and now I get soem error on my stick.

I get reset error(0) LIBUSB_SUCESS and cant hash?

Any suggestion ?

unplug it and plug it back in

hmmmm....i had that error also...hmmmm......3 sidehack usb sticks...they can't all be bad right?

may have to re-look at hub issues etc etc

assuming this poster is correct on the fix ?

others? agree/disagree...... would explain a lot if it is hardware or hub (so lost)

edit: assuming the above is my problem .....compaq evo n800v laptop ports (even with 2 to 1 port cable adapter) and also the orico 2.0 usb hub someone on one of the threads
said DOES NOT WORK on the sidehack gekko usb 8gh sticks....

anyway looking for more info to punt (have a usb voltage tester coming to test the orico 10 port usb 2.0 hub) ...anyway ASSUMING this is part of my install issues

how does this look for a hub (need 10 port hub...have 3 sticks so need a bit of space between usb ports for airflow imho)

ideally...anyone using this 10 port version or can point me to another powered hub..where it is UNLIKELY that it will be an issue with the gekko sticks?

just trying to eliminate some possibilities on why I'm having such issues...I have a hard time believing all 3 of my gh gekko miners are broke

here is the link and pic

anyway ...thoughts on approprate hubs?

make sure your hub is not USB 3.0 as that causes problems with miners...

well hell....i am not getting conflicting advice...folk from this thread say to USE 3.0 usb hubs ....

one guy has a product he has working with his sticks usb 3.0 etc......probably should just get that

side issue....will an OLD 2.0 usb on a laptop I want to use for this to a 3.0 usb hub make any diff ...or do i need a 3.0 usb old laptop to match

thoughts......probably should say the hell with it and build it with a raspberry PI etc and the guys hub he says works with such....) but anyway still stuff to know/do and fret over

USB3 have been ok for me. I just make sure they go through a USB2 hub before connecting to a USB2 port on the host.

OK ....this quote above completely lost me ( I mean i work with developmentally disabled folk...how did I get dragged into this techy wonderland? So fish out of water)

both are good quotes.

usb3 alone to your pc or rasp pi does not work well = true

usb3 to usb2 to your pc or rasp pi does work well = true

why are these true? in the first case the rasp pi sees the usb3 and says fuck you I am a picky mofo

in the second case the rasp pi sees a usb 2 hub that hides the usb 3 hub for it so the rasp pi goes "du ta dut" and works

why go the usb 3 then usb 2 then rasp pi route.

simple reason the usb3 has more juice per port.

So if you buy a cheap usb2 like this one

go rasp pi the one above then your usb3 hub it should work.
