Administration of bfgminer in linux I'm just starting to screw around with bitcoin mining.  I've been a long time Boinc pseudo-enthusiast and so I just had to check out bitcoin mining.  I've started using bfgminer and I'm a little confused as to how its administration should go.

I get it running in the terminal and it shows me the main menu, but is there a way to exit out of that menu and keep it running in the background?  Then once it's going, is there a way to bring the menu back up to check in on it?

I've looked around for an answer to this and I haven't been able to find one yet; can anyone put me on the right track?

Many thanks in advance!
GNU Screen is often the ideal tool to run interactive programs in the background. You can also run it with --syslog and/or --api-listen to have a more traditional daemon-type process.
