I have spent the last 3 hours unsuccessfully installing a driver for the TmoteSky so I can use it as a wireless network sniffer.
when I run lsusb:
Code:

However, I believe that ftdi_sio & usb serial are only there because I ran the command 'sudo modprobe ftdi_sio' in order for the usb port to be read, without any success. Please help!
