ASICMINER has released their branch of cgminer:   https://github.com/blockerupter/cgminer

This branch supports both Tube and Prisma, you'll need AM's USB adapter to connect to your USB port. A random CP2102X usb to uart adapter might work as well if you can customize the adpater by adding a pull resistor to the TXD.

How to build:
  • ./autogen.sh
  • ./configure --enable-blockerupter
  • make

There's also a win32 binary here:

How to run:
No extra command line parameters are needed. The Tube or Prisma will be identified as "BET" in cgminer.
Code:
./cgminer -o YOUR_POOL -u WORKER -p PASSWORD



can I use this with any mining pool ? like nicehash ?


Said yes before, but there turns out many "job not found" errors which causes hash rate loss after long time test.
Now I realize that nicehash has its own modification with stratum protocol, it seems either we patch official cgminer or we fork from nicehash's own branch and add driver for PRISMA.
