Are you using the cgminer optimised for gridseed? normal cgminer doesn't detect gridseed devices.

can you type in
Code:
lsusb

and post the results here please?

I did used this command to install cgminer -   wget https://db.tt/UygLkqwd -O cgminer
based on this tutorial on reddit - http://www.reddit.com/r/litecoinmining/comments/20qddx/a_simple_guild_to_set_up_gridseed_ltc_mining_rig/

With the gridseed plugged into hub(green LED is on, red lights up occasionally), with hub powered on (plugged into PSU and red LED is on) and plugged into RPi, this is what I get when I run lsusb -

Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0424:9512 Standard Microsystems Corp.
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 0424:ec00 Standard Microsystems Corp.
Bus 001 Device 004: ID 050d:945a Belkin Components F7D1101 v1 Basic Wireless Adapter [Realtek RTL8188SU]

I tried the standard zoomhash image, hashra and scripta yesterday, but had trouble setting up the wifi adapter so I went with the standard raspbian setup that was in the Unicorn Hasher guide.

I would suggest to try to plug the Gridseed directly into Raspberry with a known good USB cable. Make sure the Raspberry is powered off, plug in the Gridseed, power both on. If that works you can then test the hub.
