[Tinyos-help] FTDI support under Ubuntu

[Philip Levis]

I'm having trouble getting FTDI to work properly with Telos motes  
under Ubuntu 5.10 (Breezy Badger). I installed the usbserial and  
ftdi_sio kernel modules that came with the distribution, and the  
system logs support for FT232BM Compatible serial devices. But when I  
plug in a Telos, the USB system just recognizes it as a full speed  
USB device; it does not recognize it as an FT232BM and therefore  
doesn't create a /dev/ttyUSB entry. I checked the TinyOS Ubuntu  
install guide and didn't find any mention of this. Has anyone else  
encountered this problem before, and if so, what was your solution?  
I'm wary of trying to recompile kernel modules or assign /dev entries  
if there's a simple solution...
