Any News on the IceFurys?

Grrrr......

I have been working on this all weekend (it is Sunday here).

The Bad News: hidapi (for bfgminer) looks to be a bust on ARM architectures, I have tried it on several different device types with varying results, anything from crashes to unstability. Deffinatly nothing you would want to trust your mining gear to.

The Good News: Technobit released a patch for cgminer 3.8.5 that basically ports Luke's bfgminer nano code to cgminer WITHOUT hidapi (proving in my mind it is not Luke's code, but hidapi) and it rocks, it runs nano devices at 2.5 GH/s + .

The Bad News About The Good News: it requires you slow down the USB port to 1.1 speed's AND it does not play well with other devices, so it will run the nano's but no other mining devices.

Anyway, still working on a solution. One possibility that I am working on is to add a third miner option in the settings page that runs the nano's, but only the nano's. It would also require you to edit a file in /boot/ to drop your USB speed.
