Ive been able to recompile sgminer based on files from X10 and CN, however some problems at hand with USB communcation to the boards, guess ill figure out those in a while. As an example i found nothing less than 33 different versions of driver-baikalu.c, so there will be some sorting before everythings ok.

Code:

If anyone have the Giant B and Giant x10 and don't mind doing a little work, can you take out the controller board (the board that goes on top of the 3 hash boards) and also the orange pi and swap them?

Want to see if the 3 hashing boards on the Giant B and Giant x10 are the same. If it works, then that means you will only need to update the controller board first, since just swapping out SD Cards does nothing.

It will be pointless trying to compile a custom sgminer if you require to update the controller board first.

X10, B and CN all have different chips, so i dont think it will be possible to cross them, i would not suggest that any one tries this unless they have no problem risking their hardware.

X10 seems to be able to support additional coins: groestl, nist5, x11-gost and veltor, thats atleast what im trying to figure out.
