Well I dont know if this helps.. I run A current version of Ubuntu 7.10 Gutsy Gibbon .. I also have a TNC-X with the USB addon board. Its running the FTDI chipset ..
I dont usually run the TNC-X with the Linux machine but Ive allways had a hankering to fiddle with it. I managed to get it figured out about 5 mins after plugging it in.. Here is what I found.. The TNC-X appeares as /dev/ttyUSB0 .. Note the Uppercase USB zero. I set it up in Xastir as a Serial KISS TNC at 9600 Bd. Finnished. Works great. No drivers required to be loaded. Ubuntu 7.10 is Kernel 2.6.22 Hope this helps.
