No ttyUSB1?


Alright, I just reinstalled (my system had some issues, and I was in a hurry to fix it) Slackware 10.1 and for some reason, there aren't any /dev/ttyUSBx's. Last time I just had to adjust the symlink of /dev/pilot to the USB rather than the serial, anyone know why Slack 9.1 would have it but not 10.1?

Should I be using a different /dev for my PDA? I always used /dev/ttyUSB1 before and it worked fine, is there a different one I should use?
