Ubuntu Linux Setup Instructions :

1 ) Download Ubuntu x64 from : http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop

2 ) Install on a PC or on a Virtual Machine.

3 ) Once installed Find and Open Terminal by pressing CTRL + ALT + T

4 ) Type the following lines and press enter after each one :

Code:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:theturtle1983/mining
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install bfgminer

5 ) Plug in your Blue Fury Miner in your favorite USB hub/port

6 ) Find the Blue Fury device name in your /Dev Folder. Mine was named ttyACM0 (yours should be similar)

7 ) Type the following into Terminal :

Code:

sudo bfgminer -o [pool name] -u [username] -p [password] -S bitfury:/dev/ttyACM0

*obviously change everything in brackets to your personal pool settings.

8 ) Hash Away! Grin

Thanks SSINC... was waiting for someone from the group to post that for weeks now.

I don't have any file with a name similar to ttyACM0. How do I find the proper dev file?
