I believe the 0403:a6d0 id is for the original Beaglebone with its built in serial to USB adapter. The Beaglebone black requires an external TTL serial to USB converter. The recommended FTDI cable has the id 0403:6001. These ids are used to identify the console serial port connection to the board. The 1d6b:0104 id is for the BBB combination device that supports RNDIS ethernet over USB and USB mass storage. It identifies the connection to the miniUSB connector on the BBB.
