It's just seeing what software you have installed that is likely to want
to talk to the device, and it didn't find any. It's mostly looking for
USB drives. But you can see it has assigned ttyUSB0 to the device. See
my other post, but once you have the right serial parameters set by
stty, you can just cat /dev/ttyUSB0 to see if your gadget is sending
anything by itself. Or any such text will appear in the CuteCom window,
if you run that. Other serial monitors are available...
