I didn't have to add myself to "dialout" in previous version. I would guess that this non-dialout configuration would cause this bug and other problems that would not be easy to fix for non linux-experts? This bug probably should be moved from "kernel" bug to "groups"/configuration bug, but I don't know how...
** Description changed: I have tried to connect USB-serial devices to Ubuntu 12.04 64-bit, and usb-serial devices won't connect. Although it shows up in dmesg, and - shows up in /dev/ttyUSB0, it isn't detected. I've tried several obdii - tools with a usb-serial obdii connector, and tried connecting a device - via a Java project that had previously worked. Neither of these worked, - but they worked in 10.04 32-bit. + shows up in /dev/ttyUSB0, it isn't detected, since the default + configuration doesn't seem to add user to "dialout" group.
