Okay so I got CGMiner to run at startup on a Pi 4 although I can't seem to actually see it in the terminal it on the pi! 
Here is what I added this to the /etc/rc.local
I see the stats on the pool side but have no idea how to actually view what's running in the usual CGMiner terminal window!
ctrl-alt-f1 does show me the terminal window but its not displayed as it would be if I just entered the commands in terminal.
Any suggestions?
Yes. The Compac-F's will not run with vh's versions of cgminer as it lacks the driver needed for the chip the F uses... You need to use Kano's updated one (he wrote the driver for the F). He also cleaned up a lot of vh's previous code that Sidehacks older sticks use.Here is what I added this to the /etc/rc.local
Code:
cd /home/pi/git/vthoang/cgminer
sudo ./cgminer -o stratum+tcp://solo.ckpool.org:3333 -u BTCADD.PI1 -p x --gekko-compacf-freq 570 --gekko-start-freq 420 --suggest-diff 128
sudo ./cgminer -o stratum+tcp://solo.ckpool.org:3333 -u BTCADD.PI1 -p x --gekko-compacf-freq 570 --gekko-start-freq 420 --suggest-diff 128
