Everyone,
I am trying to intall a couple Multtech Modems on a F6 system and am
having difficulty finding a starting place. I would like to try my hand
with some faxing software, but have not been able to get to the modems.
When I run lsusb I get the following:
Bus 002 Device 003: ID 06e0:f107 Multi-Tech Systems, Inc.

When I do a ls /dev/usb* I get the following:

Can any of you point me to a tutorial as to how to connect these modems
and access them on Linux. I have a SCO box which uses
regular /dev/tty1a devices, but I have not had any experience with usb
ports. I do not know how to connect the information supplied by lsusb
with the /dev/usbdev*
Thanks for your help!!!

Do a cat /proc/bus/usb/devices then a /proc/devices.

Neil,
thanks for your help but I am not sure what to do with it, sorry for an
entry level question
sine I wasn't sure what to expect I couldn't tell you what to look
for. The above usbdev3.1_ep** sounds like devices that libusb or libhid
would use (can't use those with minicom or other comm programs).
cat /proc/bus/usb/devices :
T: Bus=01 Lev=01 Prnt=01 Port=02 Cnt=01 Dev#= 3 Spd=12 MxCh= 0
D: Ver= 1.00 Cls=02(comm.) Sub=00 Prot=00 MxPS= 8 #Cfgs= 2
P: Vendor=06e0 ProdID=f107 Rev= 1.00
S: Manufacturer=Multi-Tech Systems, Inc.
S: Product=MultiModemUSB
C: #Ifs= 2 Cfg#= 1 Atr=a0 MxPwr=400mA
I: If#= 0 Alt= 0 #EPs= 0 Cls=ff(vend.) Sub=ff Prot=ff Driver=
I: If#= 1 Alt= 0 #EPs= 2 Cls=ff(vend.) Sub=ff Prot=ff Driver=
E: Ad=02(O) Atr=02(Bulk) MxPS= 16 Ivl=0ms
E: Ad=84(I) Atr=03(Int.) MxPS= 63 Ivl=2ms
Looks like not driver there.
C:* #Ifs= 2 Cfg#= 2 Atr=a0 MxPwr=400mA
I: If#= 0 Alt= 0 #EPs= 1 Cls=02(comm.) Sub=02 Prot=01 Driver=cdc_acm
E: Ad=84(I) Atr=03(Int.) MxPS= 32 Ivl=128ms

E: Ad=02(O) Atr=02(Bulk) MxPS= 64 Ivl=0ms
E: Ad=86(I) Atr=02(Bulk) MxPS= 64 Ivl=0ms
Looks like driver cdc_acm
cat /proc/devices
Character devices:
1 mem
4 /dev/vc/0
4 tty
4 ttyS
5 /dev/tty
5 /dev/console
5 /dev/ptmx
6 lp
7 vcs

13 input
14 sound
21 sg
29 fb
89 i2c
116 alsa
128 ptm
136 pts
166 ttyACM
I'm guessing that this is the device attached to the about driver
You may find some additional information with dmesg.
