Did you copy the in the earlier mail attached file to
/etc/udev/rules.d/, and diconnect/reconnect the device? Only this
would create the /dev/serial/ stuff.
No. Now I have and it does not seem to work,
but then I don't see the ttyUSB devices either.
I'm thinking that my kernel does not yet have
support and I need something newer. (I know
I got ttyUSB devices created the last time
I tested the device....)
I'm sorry, I have to stop now. I will try
to report back in a few days. I hope I've
not distracted you too much.
I tried udevtest and didn't get any parse errors.
