Not all 2Pac were built the same. Same voltage, but one throws many HW errors, another does a few HW errors, and the last one throws 0 HW errors. This is why I asked if I could run each device with their own frequency (Mhz). Rather than device number, the serial number seems like a better unique identifier and maybe use the GSx hardware model if necessary. Maybe something for cgminer-gekko 4.11 Huh Smiley
I don´t know if it´s common here, but I use the deb package screen to login to a session via SSH. With screen you can keep the session running even if you log off. When reconnecting you can resume the session with the command screen -r. I don´t know if cgminer is able to run two instances in two different sessions. If it is you could start two instances with two frequencies.
Otherwise I would git clone cgminer in a second folder, maybe cgminer2, and compile it there. Then maybe you could start two cgminers in two sessions using screen.

Just run the same cgminer in second session with different parameters - you don't need two copies, and even if you did need two copies, why would you clone/make again when you can just copy the one that's already built...
