Ok, lsusb is helping.  If I plug into the "device" port on the launchpad 
*nothing* shows up.  If I plug into the "debug" port it shows up as 
dev1.7.  This is on the same port that was showing a mouse as dev1.6. 
But this is a start.  I guess I was using the wrong port on the launchpad.

I appreciate the help, but I don't understand much of this.  Like I've 
said, I'm a complete noob at Linux.  Do I need to do any of this?  There 
is only one user, "raspberry".

But only if the devices are connected in the same order each time.  I 
noticed that when the mouse is plugged in it was port 1.6.  When I 
unplug it and use that port for the launchpad it becomes port 1.7.  Is 
that expected?

It may be my friend, but I can't figure out how to run it...  Is that 
what friends are about, hard to understand?  I also can't figure out how 
to run miniterm.  Google searches... or more accurately a duckduckgo 
search on miniterm I get all manner of links to pyserial and few, if 
any, to miniterm.  The noob factor is at work.  I can download what 
seems to be pyserial, but I can't figure out how to run it as an 
application.
