Hello, Gentoo 2005.1, kernel 2.6.12 gentoo r10. I have a USB device that uses the FTDI driver (in the kernel) to make the device appear as a serial port.
When I plug in the device I get the following in my syslog: Sep 18 03:31:23 (none) usb 2-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 2 Sep 18 03:31:23 (none) ftdi_sio 2-1:1.0: FTDI FT232BM Compatible converter detected Sep 18 03:31:23 (none) usb 2-1: FTDI FT232BM Compatible converter now attached to ttyUSB0 but alas, there is no /dev/ttyUSB0. Any suggestions of where I might look for what went wrong? Below are the config parameters that relate to USB.
