Making the device files manually doesnt seem to help. Obviously I
don't know enough to know what I'm doing with this.

What shows up in /var/log/messages when you plug it in? How about
when you load the module? As someone else indicated, it does not
sound like this model is supported by this module. Another check, it
you know how to read it, is to look in /proc/bus/usb/devices for
your device. If you get Driver=none then the device is not supported
by any loaded module. This is usually a good indication that the
device is not supported. There are exceptions to this - devices
supported by user space programs. (REB-1100 supported by rebcom for
example.)

Here is an example of an unsupported device.
T:  Bus=02 Lev=01 Prnt=01 Port=00 Cnt=01 Dev#= 18 Spd=1.5 MxCh= 0
D:  Ver= 1.10 Cls=00(>ifc ) Sub=00 Prot=00 MxPS= 8 #Cfgs=  1
P:  Vendor=07d0 ProdID=4959 Rev= 1.00
S:  Manufacturer=Kingsun CO.
S:  Product=USB to IRDA
C:* #Ifs= 1 Cfg#= 1 Atr=80 MxPwr=100mA
I:* If#= 0 Alt= 0 #EPs= 1 Cls=ff(vend.) Sub=00 Prot=00 Driver=(none)
E:  Ad=81(I) Atr=03(Int.) MxPS=   8 Ivl=1ms

Here is what shows up in the logs when I plug it in:
Nov  5 10:13:42 mikkel kernel: usb 2-1: new low speed USB device
using uhci_hcd and address 18

Hers is what the logs from a supported USB serial device look like.
(My GPS device.)
