I've posted about the restart/flushwork thing since... 9th October? Asking for it to be addressed.
How about some answers to these questions:

This post suggests the KNC version is not doing a proper work restart. Any reason KNC are spending 9 days releasing firmware updates that doesn't even fix these issues? I'm fairly sure the guys who wrote cgminer could sort this quick fast. So I guess it could now read:
Any reason KNC are spending 17 days releasing firmware updates that doesn't even fix these issues?
Pride's a bitch, aint't it? They should swallow that damned pride, hook up ckolvias, and let him sort it properly.
