I'm trying to use Red Fury USB Bitfury ASIC Bitcoin Miner 2.6 and these ASIC Block Erupters 333  on the same computer and I want to run cgminer
The problem I'm have is cgminer is picking these little ASIC up and giving me an error. is there a turn off switch for cgminer that will keep it
from trying to load the ASIC 333.

It is a common myth that Bitcoin is ruled by a majority of miners. This is not true. Bitcoin miners "vote" on the ordering of transactions, but that's all they do. They can't vote to change the network rules.

Is it that you are trying to run the Bitfury in a separate instance of cgminer than the Block Erupters or is the issue that cgminer is only seeing the Erupters and not the Bitfury?

I personally haven't been able to get two instances of cgminer to run as it would complain about the devices already being in use.

no. I was running bfgminer with my 3333 ASIC block erupters and cgminer with the Bitfury.

I was able to get cgminer to stop trying to access the 3333 ASIC by using the --usb :2 option
after it trys for the first time using this option it doesn't try again.
