Description Bart Vanbrabant 2007-03-04 11:45:10 UTC 
Description of problem:
Since the rawhide kernel moved from 2.6.20 to a pre 2.6.21 version I can't use a
programmer with an usb to serial converter chip anymore. It used to attach to
the device /dev/ttyUSB0 but now I get ttyUSB132 or ttyUSB148. When I try to use
the device I get an error that the device node doesn't exist.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
The rawhide kernel from yesterday: 2.6.20-1.2962.fc7PAE

Output from dmesg when attaching the device and removing it again:
