If you see ttyUSB0 already, I'm sure everything is working correctly, but just to be sure, you need the usbserial portion of the kernel and the correct USB to serial drivers compiled into the kernel, or as a module. -Josh -- Joshua ChaitinPollak Software Engineer Kiva Systems --Apple-Mail-4--312254878 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1
