Hello Gary Golden,

Thank you for answer me.

Yes I can see it with: *lusb *and no there is nothing in* /dev/ttyUSB**
*
*
The link above explains how to make it works, but I've been following those
instructions and isn't working for me. Do I need to install *usbswitchmode*?
by the way: Is there anyway to know what drivers and configuration is using
Fedora 14, to make it easier and just take it from Fedora 14 and use it in
my Gentoo ?

Regards,
