After plugging in a Tmote/TelosB, run "lsmod" to see if the ftdi_sio driver is being loaded. If it is, and you're just not getting the device nodes created automatically, Shawn Schaffert has some suggestions from a while back that have been incorporated into the Tmote Sky Linux Manual Installation page. See the section "Device Nodes"

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...
