Linux

• /usr/sbin/lsusb
  
  • Bus 003 Device 009: ID 16c0:0887
• for SuSE 10.0 the driver cdc_acm was not loaded automatically, in this case the command "modprobe cdc_acm" loads the driver.
• dmesg | grep ACM ==> "cdc_acm 3-1.4:1.0: ttyACM0: USB ACM device"
• Some older pyserial versions come up with the following error: [Errno 11] Resource temporarily unavailable In this case apply the patch or upgrade pyserial: http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-list/2004-November/294242.html
