Ubuntu machine and cgminer running solid.

However, I came home to one of the NewPacs in a loop showing "0 chips found" and trying to restart

Tried changing hubs, solo instance, different computers all to no avail.

I have all of my NewPacs running at 200MHz and 860mV with ample cooling.

Is there anything else I can try or test for before sending it in for repair?



I have not had any issues with these new-pacs but I have never ran them longer than 6 hours because my standard procedure is to use a script to restart cgminer every couple of hours.

Here is a similar code to what I use, but written for your Raspberry Pi.  You still have to edit it slightly to fit your particulars.

Save this code as mine.sh, edit the line starting with lxterminal with the full path to your cgminer folder and then put in the commands you usually use for your pool, mark as an executing program and run.  It goes in a loop so to exit, just use control C.

Interesting, what do I need to change to run on Ubuntu aside from username and file location?
