Did you install the udev rule in /etc/udev/rules.d?

by the way, I added this to the udev rule:

# Use the tty subsystem to get a stable name for the FET
  SUBSYSTEM=="tty" ACTION=="add"\
  SYSFS{product}=="MSP-FET430UIF JTAG Tool" \
  SYMLINK+="ttyTIUSB"

then a symlink is automatically created at /dev/ttyTIUSB.  I have a
lot of USB->serial adapters and it seems like the FET tool never gets
the same device file name.  This way, I can put "/dev/ttyTIUSB" in my
Makefile and never have to worry about it.
