I've had oww running on an unslung NSLU2 for many years, but the Slug has become unstable and tends to fry USB drives on a reglar basis now. I decided to migrate to a cheap Ubuntu box (ex-PC) and use a Dallas USB 1-wire adapter.
If I run lsusb I can see it Bus 005 Device 006: ID 04fa:2490 Dallas Semiconductor DS1490F 2-in-1 Fob, 1-Wire adapter but there's no /dev/ttyUSB device, and if I select /dev/bus/usb/005/006 I get nothing.
OWW itself is reporting "Open COM failed" and "Failed to initialise system resurce". I get the feeling I've missed an obvious driver install somewhere, but can't see it.
Anyone care to hit me with a clue stick please?

I seem to recal something about a module that is loaded in the kernal by default needing to be blacklisted so it does not hog that spot. Maybe?
Not sure its the same problem but take a look here:-
http://oww.sourceforge.net/usb_config.html
at the " The udev System" & "Kernel Modules" section. The latter one is the "blacklisting" that deanostoy referred to.
