Re: GekkoScience Compac BM1384 Stickminer Official Support Thread
In few days I should recieve the Stick from bitshopper.de.
Idea is to use it in one of the blackarrow X1's usb (eventually undervolted), and I'm not a linux expert.
Cgminer version is 4.4.2 and the task is controlled by bamc (black arrow manager software) under debian, I don't know if is a good idea to upgrade cgminer 'cause the integration with bamc.
Should I simply go to install bfg to control only GekkoSience miner and let cgminer do only present task with the minion

You might look into a Raspberry PI. Honestly I think it's one of the best way's to control them you have a very low wattage controller for them. You can make a reliable lotto or fun mining machine for the compac's very easily with a LOT of documentation. It is what I have used with a powered USB hub.
I'm not sure your going to find the level of documentation for a X1 I personally have not owned one. As a "not a linux expert." the guides with a RPI I think you will find very helpful to say the least. And there are a ton of projects you can use a RPI for if you ever stop using it for some reason. So not a bad thing to have.
Yep, this is plan B, but it won't be easy control X1 with raspberry. That way I'll have 2 controllers and in best case scenario 1 psu.
X1 has its own rockchip integrated controller and a not so bad psu. So assuming I want to run it, unless its 0,75W/Ghs, I got a controller and psu already powered that could handle the super-stick. I'll however first would give a try
