I am using Debian 4.0 ...the latest and greatest.
I did a modprobe on usb-serial and ftdi_sio and they both load great...after
loading what am i suppose to see?  Should it say ttyUSB0 device ready or
somehting like that ?
The strange thing is that i have a bluetooth dongle --that is in one of th
usb ports..and that works ..b/c i am able to hook it up to my phone.
I am further able to connect to it with rfcomm.  It looks like i can take
the modem off the hook..but I am at a dead end there..because i can not
reference the device in Kannel.
my dmesg looks like this:

 drivers/usb/serial/usb-serial.c: USB Serial support registered for FTDI USB
Serial Device
usbcore: registered new driver ftdi_sio
drivers/usb/serial/ftdi_sio.c: v1.4.3:USB FTDI Serial Converters Driver

and my lsusb looks like this:
Bus 002 Device 003: ID 0bb4:0bce High Tech Computer Corp.
Bus 002 Device 002: ID 0a12:0001 Cambridge Silicon Radio, Ltd Bluetooth
Dongle (HCI mode)
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
Bus 001 Device 004: ID 0d49:5020 Maxtor
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000


and my lsmod looks like this:

usbserial              39152  1 ftdi_sio
hci_usb                22812  2
bluetooth              61572  7 rfcomm,l2cap,hci_usb
usb_storage            87616  1
scsi_mod              153008  3 sd_mod,libata,usb_storage
ide_core              147584  5
ide_generic,ide_cd,usb_storage,generic,amd74xx



but no tty.

thanks
mjh
