Purchased this item from Rawted. No escrow as he is a trusted member here. I received the item only 2 days after paying, very quick. Item was in perfect condition and well packaged. Couldn't have asked for a better experience. Thanks Rawted!
Re: BFL ASIC Firmware & Hardware, Understanding & Optimization
Has anyone swapped the fans in the little single (30ghash) device?
The fan noise is driving me nuts and I'd really like to get something a little quieter. They are running below 60c with stock fans.
Any suggestions on what to purchase?

Re: CGMINER ASIC FPGA GPU overc monit fanspd RPC linux/win/osx/mip/r-pi 3.3.1
What you are showing there is libusb failing to timeout.
That's what the test program will test and show for the version of libusb you use.
I've put usbfail.c and the working libusb libusb-1.0.16-rc10.tar.bz2 in my binaries git:
https://github.com/kanoi/cgminer-binaries
On linux, To use the working libusb for cgminer instead of the system libusb -
First install udev-dev via one of:
Fedora: yum install libgudev1
Ubuntu derivatives: apt-get install libudev-dev
Arch: it should be installed by default as part of systemd
When you are in the cgminer folder:
mkdir libusb
cd libusb
wget -O libusb-1.0.16-rc10.tar.bz2 https://github.com/kanoi/cgminer-binaries/blob/master/libusb-1.0.16-rc10.tar.bz2?raw=true
tar -xvf libusb-1.0.16-rc10.tar.bz2
cd libusb-1.0.16-rc10
./configure
make
cd ..
cd ..
If you have already autogen/configured cgminer, next you want to edit Makefile
Search for -I/usr/include/libusb-1.0 change all 3 to make sure it's working to -Ilibusb/libusb-1.0.16-rc10/libusb/
Also search for -lusb-1.0 and change both of them to libusb/libusb-1.0.16-rc10/libusb/.libs/libusb-1.0.a -ludev (without the first -l)
Then
make clean
make
and now your cgminer will have been compiled against my specific libusb-1.0.16-rc10 properly
N.B. you have to use that version in my git, not the system versions - it would appear a lot if linux distros have a bad libusb

Thank you so much for this! Just spent a long time trying to get libusb working correctly on Ubuntu 12.04 with my usb miners. This solved the problem immediately, great guide.
Also, is there a guide for what difficulty I should set in cgminer based on hashrate? Or should I just let cgminer decide?
Re: [7000GH/s] p2pool: Decentralized, DoS-resistant, Hop-Proof pool
For higher hashrate miners, is it suggested to manually set the difficulty in cgminer (with p2pool), or does it not matter?
For example, right now my cgminer instance is running at around 42GH/s. It has set the difficulty to 8. Is there any reason to set it higher than that? Reduced bandwidth/latency? My miners are on the same LAN as my p2pool but a different box.

Re: [WTS] BFL 30ghz Little Single In Hand - 20 btc takes it!
Received from sang in just one day. Purchased for 21BTC including escrow/shipping. Super fast shipping. Well packaged. Very easy to work with, we used escrow through JohnK. Couldn't have asked for a better experience.
Little single is hashing away nicely at ~32Ghash:
Now I just need to do something about the fan on this thing, pretty noisy.
Thanks for the excellent purchase sang!

Re: [4000GH/s] p2pool: Decentralized, DoS-resistant, Hop-Proof pool
I love P2Pool and having been running it for a while but I have a pretty marginal rig at around 700MH/s and with the latest hike in difficulty I'm just not getting any shares any more.
Sooner or later you should get one. It should all even out in the long run.
Of course, if you start getting shares once a week or something then it's time to switch pool, but it can't be that bad..?
23400 * 2^32 / (700 x 10^6) sec = 143574.6 sec = 39hrs 52min 55sec share average
how long does a share last in terms of payout? e.g. if you are getting 1 share every 2 days will you still be getting a payout for each block or will there be periods where your payout dips down to zero?
