extra noch zu der Filiale gefahren, da Briefe dort um ~17.15 abgeholt werden.
Pakete offensichtlich (zumindest heute) früher. Aber Vorfreude ist ja bekanntlich die schönste Freude.

Linux users should not need any help.
So here for the win users only:

• download latest cgminer-3.1.1 :
  http://ck.kolivas.org/apps/cgminer/
• install this driver:
  http://www.silabs.com/products/mcu/Pages/USBtoUARTBridgeVCPDrivers.aspx
  no reboot required
• plug in the usb miner, wait few seconds
• search in the Device Manager for:
  Silicon Labs CP210x USB to UART Bridge (COMx)
  keep the COM number(s) in mind
• start cgminer with the following arguments:
  cgminer-nogpu.exe --icarus-options 115200:1:1 --icarus-timing 3.0=100 -S COMx
  for more than one device: cgminer-nogpu.exe --icarus-options 115200:1:1 --icarus-timing 3.0=100 -S //./COMx -S //./COMy

happy hashing  
But be careful! they get hot during operation!
I recommend cooling. Direct some airflow over the heat sink.
