I had two block erupters running on a Raspberry Pi with cgminer 3.1.1. (with a powered hub). All worked fine.
Then I received two new block erupters and I added them to the powered hub. It all worked.
After a while one of the first block erupters was giving a lot of HW errors and all the block erupters stopped working every now and then.
I thought the block erupter was broken. I took it out and tried it on my desktop with cgminer 3.3.4 It worked fine and also the other three on the Raspberry Pi started working fine again.

What can I do now? I want all four of them on my Raspberry Pi. Should I update cgminer to 3.3.4? I read somewhere that the newer versions of cgminer don't work well with a Raspberry Pi.

And how is it possible that one block erupter can determine the working of the other three?

Thanks for your replies

According to NIST and ECRYPT II, the cryptographic algorithms used in Bitcoin are expected to be strong until at least 2030. (After that, it will not be too difficult to transition to different algorithms.)

You're running out of power on your hub.
