<div>With the USB device plugged in, use a terminal and enter this:</div>
<div><font size="2" face="Arial"></font><font size="2" face="Arial"></font><font size="2" face="Arial"></font><br></div>
<div>lsusb </div>
<div><font size="2" face="Arial"></font><font size="2" face="Arial"></font><font size="2" face="Arial"></font><br></div>
<div>Carefully check the names of the devices. Is it really /dev/USB1 ?</div>

<div>Remember Unix / Linux is case sensitive, /dev/USB1 is NOT /dev/usb1
which is a normal device name.</div>
<div><font size="2" face="Arial"></font><br></div>
<div>Let's assume you made an error and the device is <span style="FONT-FAMILY:sans-serif">ttyUSB1.</span></div>
<div><span style="FONT-FAMILY:sans-serif"><font size="2" face="Arial"></font><font size="2" face="Arial"></font><br></span></div>
<div><span style="FONT-FAMILY:sans-serif">In terminal:</span></div>

<div>Pay attention to the group this device belongs, to. The owner will be
root.</div>
<div><font size="2" face="Arial"></font><br></div>
<div>You need to be in the same group to access it.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Find out what groups your user account is in by the command "groups."</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>In terminal enter:</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>groups</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Is the group that <span style="FONT-FAMILY:sans-serif">ttyUSB1
belongs to listed as one of your groups? If not you have to add your user to
that group using the root account.</span></div>
