Hi, I don't run "unstable" (I use "testing") but I'd expect that you'll have to teach udev to recognize the USB devices and create the right device files for them. Start with udev(8) and work from there. Look in the files under /etc/udev/. Also "lsusb -v" might be your friend here (to find out which strings you should use in the specific rules, if you find that you have to write your own rules at all).
