 If you have the serial converter the device would be connected to a physical 
port on your motherboard, or expansion card.  You will need to find out which 
device node corresponds with the physical serial port the earthmate is 
connected to... typically /dev/ttyS{0,1,2,etc}.  Try cat /dev/ttyS{0,1,2,etc} 
to see if it works, replace the braced numers with a single digit... 

 If you would like to use it in usb mode, please find out whether your kernel 
comes with the cypress_m8 module.  This started happening in the 2.6.10 linux 
kernel series I believe.  Try installing kernel sources for your distribution 
if this is greater than or equal to the above listed version.  You'll need to 
select the module to compilete.  This is under USB Support->USB Serial 
Converter Support->USB Cypress M8.  Then recompile the kernel, install, and 
test on the appropriate device node.
