Q: I ran cgminer, and now BFGMiner doesn't work!
A: cgminer has its own non-standard implementations of the drivers for most USB devices, and disables the official drivers (on Windows, you did this manually using Zadig). Before you can use BFGMiner, you will need to restore the original driver. With Linux, usually rebooting or re-plugging the device is sufficient.


Well i had been doing a daemon-reload after stopping and disabling cg.... So i decided to go ahead and just try a reboot.

and THANK YOU THANK YOU!! that worked. I ssh'd in, stopped and disabled cg, then enabled bfg and rebooted the device. once it came back up they all came online and started mining! I knew i was doing something newbish and stupid. Problem solved  Grin

You can have bfgminer be your default miner when your Pi starts up.  If nothing has changed it should be

Code:
sudo systemctl stop cgminer.service
sudo systemctl disable cgminer.service
sudo systemctl enable bfgminer.service
sudo systemctl start bfgminer.service
