Any news on hosting for miners (non-canceled orders) that I understand were to be hashing now? 
I heard over a week ago we were to get a payout for the miners we paid for and kept hosting with steamboat.  Anyone heard about or received a payout?

A Star topology offers a more direct route so that would be my first choice pending testing.  Why not spend a little extra for two Pi units for less chance on a single failure causing problems?  (both the primary usb hub and the pi)

/opt/minepeon/bin/cgminer: -S: unrecognized option

has something changed with the build of cgminer in this version?

=== from minepeon 2013-06-11==============

/opt/minepeon/bin/cgminer -help
cgminer 3.2.1
Built with bflsc bitforce icarus avalon modminer ztex mining support.

==from the one I compiled from source on raspbian (works) ================================

cgminer 3.1.1


Yes the -S option was removed from 3.2.1, The simplest solution would be to just use your 3.1.1 binary.  cgminer 3.2.1 moved to a direct USB access system.

I have two 7970's - one GHz edition and one normal edition. Running them both on high I have no issue keeping temps under 80 degrees. I would highly recommend you look at getting some more airflow into your case. I actually modded my Bitfenix Shenobi to allow me to mount a 23cm fan directly blowing air onto the cards.

+1

I also Have one of each, they need light airflow or yes they overheat.   I have a 180mm AP182, excellent fan and overkill but works well.

Perhaps more stats and data would help. 
How about Mh/s for 1m, 1hr, 1 day?  Hardware errors, temperature data, ... from cgminer, ect?

BAMT had be spoiled.

as a fellow pi user, they are great...
but id drop the peon, arch is a pain, a normal rasp weezy and you can compile cgminer from git source hapily..
also worth looking at :-

Oh That looks rather easy.  What do you like about the DIY method vs the ready made MinePeon Image?

A script for picking drivers sounds great, old driver for 5xxx and newer for 7xxx.

Thank you for considering this.

Agreed that hardware watchdog reboot is very cool.  I would love to do that for my one problematic GPU rig as well.

To confirm, new cgminer will not make much of a difference right?

Anyone have success using a similar device with more processing power than the Raspberry pi?
ODroid or others.  This should work right?

Ouch, I believe that is twice in the past week EMC round durations have gone over 1 day. 
Although they did have a run with higher than average earnings right before.

Is this an inherent challenge with smaller pools?  How should I look at this objectively?

I'm running rigs on BAMT with 58xx 59xx Cards.  Stock drivers.

Would upgrading drivers and/or moving to cgminer make a performance difference?
If I did cgminer then does it make a performance difference to run the latest stable version 3.1?

I appreciate any tips, I've been running a while but looking to optimize as much as possible.
