[Xastir] USB on Linux for TNC

I'll try posting this again. I have been playing with some network
settings that changed my e-mail addresses and apparently the mailing
list software did not like them.

I have never tried to use USB on Linux before but I just picked up a
Belkin F5U109rw and it works great on my Win2K box. I read the Mac post
to use DEV/cu instead of TTY but how do I know what else to put in there
? I checked out RH9's Hardware Browser but all that tells me is that I
have 3 USB ports installed.

The auto detect feature of Linux did not see anything but I think that
is because it sees the USB ports, not the adapter that is connected to
it...I think.

If I get this working I have a HOT lead on CHEAP adapters...I just want
to make sure what platforms it works with before I send out a e-mail to
everyone on the sig's. I already ordered 6 more of them, hopefully I can
use it on Linux considering I am down to 1 Win2K box now.
