i have recently moved from linux version 1.0.x to 1.6.9 and at the same time to slackware 14.1. 14.1 includes the kernel module cdc_acm, which at this point i'm assuming is how boards are given the /dev/ttyACMx device. i'm not really concerned that the boards are assigned a ttyACMx as the assignment does work with the boards.
however, i have some different boards with different firmware and have defined udev rules for each. the names vary, but are along the lines of /dev/ttyUSB8 or /dev/ttyS22. those rule sets continue to work by building the symlinks, but 1.6.9 will not list them.
so the question -- how do i get this version of arduino to list tty devices in addition to the ACMx?
thanks in advance.
