Are you using a powered hub?

do you have a ttyACM0 listed in your in /dev?

What command line are you starting bfgminer with?

At first I tried a hub, but couldn't find its power cord, so I plugged them  directly into a USB expansion card installed on the machine.

Yes, I found ttyAMC0 and ttyAMC1 in my /dev.

I've been starting bfgminer with bfgminer -o stratum+tcp://us3.eclipsemc.com:3333 -u xxxxx -p xxxx -S bitfury:/dev/ttyACM0



You need to update your version of bfgminer

I added theturtle1983 ppa as listed on the first page and I have the one maintained by unit3 added already, but it updated from what I was running to v. 3.3.0... I can't seem to get it to upgrade further. Perhaps 3.3.0 is called for with mint 13maya with xfce. (side note...since I ran all the updates this afternoon when I started this, the windows that open are missing the 'minimize/maximize/close' icons and I no longer have any control over their size...I also a missing 3 of the 4 desktops the settings say I have. weird) But as long as I'm getting some mining done, I think I'm going to have to leave it for the night and come back to it tomorrow.
You may need to change the target distribution name, see previous post at https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=319419.msg3467818#msg3467818

"In "software and updates", "other software"  you have to change "saucy" to "raring" in the ppa."  - your distribution may be different
