Hi,

I have an ANT2 stick, which used to happily create a generic serial device /dev/ttyUSB0 by issuing as root

modprobe usbserial vendor=0x0fcf product=0x1008

However, I have not used in a while and now trying to get working on

2.6.41.9-1.fc15.i686.PAE

The command produces no errors, but nothing in /var/log/messages, no usbserial in lsmod and no /dev/ttyUSB0

I am suspecting there is some kernel change, but how to get the kernel to recognise the device as a generic serial?

Any help appreciated.

Thanks

James

The firmware maybe missing, did you check that?
