I have a sheevaplug that has been on the shelf for a couple years because it 
appeared to be bricked.  I decided to try to unbrick it to see if I could help 
with these tests.  Unfortunately when I plug it in and connect it to a PC 
running Debian Buster with the micro-USB cable, there is no device /dev/ttyUSB* 
.  I've tried the same thing with an OpenRD box and the device appears as 
expected then.

If I ignore that problem and try to connect with opencd, I get the following 
error messages:

$ openocd -f /usr/share/openocd/scripts/board/sheevaplug.cfg -s

Can anybody help me figure out what to do next?

Thanks!
Rick
