I have connected my mote into the usb. Then I've typed DMESG and it seems that kernel have found a USB device on usb-0000:00:07.2-1. Which usb is? tty0? ....
Message of DMESG: *[ 3480.206955] usb 1-1: USB disconnect, address 2 [ 3518.749165] usb 1-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 4 [ 3518.978423] usb 1-1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice [ 3518.992497] drivers/usb/class/cdc-acm.c: This device cannot do calls on its own.
