I guess that this device has some quirks that need to be addressed in the driver. Maybe you can find more help on the freebsd-usb list.

It's a common problem, and exists in many operating systems. Part of the problem (revealed in a private communication) was that the device permissions were incorrect; they were _write only_. :-/ Roland -- R.F.Smith http://www.xs4all.nl/~rsmith/ [plain text _non-HTML_ PGP/GnuPG encrypted/signed email much appreciated] pgp: 1A2B 477F 9970 BA3C 2914 B7CE 1277 EFB0 C321 A725 (KeyID: C321A725) pgpPA7Jlj33Lo.pgp Description: PGP signature
