Discover where are my USB speakers (device) - linux

I'm running Debian Sid and I want to know where are my USB speakers in system. For example: When I plug my pen drive, dmesg shows where it is (sda, sdb, etc). But when I plug my USB Speakers, it doesn't show anything:
[12032.284042] usb 2-2: new full speed USB device using ohci_hcd and address 2
[12032.497098] usb 2-2: New USB device found, idVendor=0d8c, idProduct=0103
[12032.497103] usb 2-2: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=0
[12032.497107] usb 2-2: Product: USB Sound Device
[12032.497109] usb 2-2: Manufacturer: C-Media INC.
[12032.497266] usb 2-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
How could I discover where it is? Is there a command to show devices connected?
Thank you.

It's added as the next available ALSA card.
cat /proc/asound/cards

The easiest way is to diff the listing of /dev before and after the device is connected.

(Oops, I see that I probably misunderstood the question. Sorry. I'll leave my answer in case it's remotely useful).
Try lsusb. It gives you an overview of USB devices connected.

How to configure driver in Buildroot for Moxa UPort 1110 USB serial converter?

I have a board with an embedded system that is buildroot based. In "make linux-menuconfig" I would like to add the appropriate drivers for the USB-RS232 adapter "Moxa UPORT 1110". I marked in "make linux-menuconfig":
Device Drivers-> USB support -> USB Serial Converter support-> USB MoxaUPORT Serial Driver
after connecting the adapter with the device, linux will not recognize the device.
When I check "lsusb" I get:
lsusb
Bus 001 Device 006: ID 110a:1110
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002
The board does not see the producer's name etc. On my Ubuntu computer I get after plugging in usb and typing "lsusb ::
Bus 001 Device 036: ID 110a:1110 Moxa Technologies Co., Ltd.
When I check dmesg after plugging in the USB and see:
[ 9752.822985] usb 1-1: USB disconnect, device number 5
[ 9754.605939] usb 1-1: new full-speed USB device number 6 using musb-hdrc
[ 9754.768212] usb 1-1: New USB device found, idVendor=110a, idProduct=1110
[ 9754.775263] usb 1-1: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=0
[ 9754.782783] usb 1-1: Product: UPort 1110
[ 9754.786903] usb 1-1: Manufacturer: Moxa Technologies Co., Ltd.
should I check any additional settings / drivers in "make linux-menuconfig" to see the USB-R232 adapter?
From looking at the Linux source code, I understand that you enabled the mxuport driver which does not cover the UPORT 1110. However, it looks like the ti_usb_3410_5052 driver does. You can enable it by setting CONFIG_USB_SERIAL_TI.
In the Buildroot sources I see that you must make sure that BR2_PACKAGE_LINUX_FIRMWARE_USB_SERIAL_TI is set in order to include the firmware file (moxa-1110.fw).
So, in make menuconfig enable USB TI 3410/5052 Serial Firmware under Target packages > Hardware handling > Firmware > linux-firmware > USB to Serial Firmware

linux virtual comport driver for ARM cortex A8

I have been working on this problem for quite a while now and cannot seem to find the correct driver for Linux to interface with an STM32F407. The Linux runs on an AR drone 2.0. The STM already acts as a virtual Com-port as itself when I connect it to my computer and then I can interact with it. On the AR drone 2.0 it is not listed as a COM-port but it does detect it as a USB device when I attach it. When I telnet it, it gives me this information:
Bus 001 device 002: ID 0483:5740 SGS Thomson Microelectronics
Bus 001 device 001: ID 1d6b:0002
The first one is obviously the one I need to look at and I looked at the vendor ID on this website. http://www.linux-usb.org/usb.ids
this vendor ID gave me indeed the STM32F407, but I cannot find the Linux driver for this device. I was able to put the STM into a Linux computer and then looked at what driver it used.
It was the CDC_AMC driver. I looked it up but now I have the next problem.
it needs the virtual COM-Port driver to interact with the STM32.
The Drone runs on a busybox Linux version v1.14.0 and I have not enough experience with Linux to know what driver I have to use and where I can find it.
Does it also have something to do with what processor it uses? In that case, the drone has a: ARM Cortex A8 1 GHz 32-bit processor
The following is seen in the output of dmesg:
usb 1-1: new full speed USB device using musb_hdrc and address 2 ecc correction in bits 939,
usb 1-1: skipped 4 descriptors after interface

USB<>serial communication not working on linux

I'm currently working on a project in which I have to communicate with a custom-made sonar board over an USB<>Serial connection with cts/rts hardware flow control at a baud rate of 4,499,456.
MATLAB code for sending and receiving data is already available and fully tested on Windows.
The problem occurs when trying to execute the MATLAB code on linux (Ubuntu 14.10/15.04). Both the commands for toggling the LED on the board (write) as well as receiving information (read) are not working.
Python ports of the MATLAB code using the pyserial and pylibftdi library do allow writing, but also hang on receiving data.
Does anyone have any idea as to why it does work on Windows but not Ubuntu? Maybe a driver issue? Or something having to do with cts/rts on Linux?

Edit: Just logging my progress in case somebody encounters the same issue. The problem seems to lie in the baudrate; changing it to 115200 allows reading from the device, but messes up sending data to it.
Apparently the FTDI driver doesn't work to well with very high/non-standard baudrates. I ended up solving this by using a baudrate of 3,000,000

Virtual COM driver in Linux to receive data from USB device

I have a USB barcode reader which is developed for Windows only. But one of the developers told me that as soon as the device detects that it is connected to a virtual COM port it is ready to work.
So my question is whether I can create a virtual COM port on Linux and connect the device to this one.
Here the udevadm output when I switch on the device:
udevadm monitor --udev

I played around with socat already, but I was not really successful. I would very much appreciate if one of you would be able to help me.
Thanks,

I think you don't need to be thinking about virtual COM ports. This bar-code reader looks like it is an HID because I see messages about HID in your dmesg output. You could check for sure by looking at the actual USB descriptors of the device using lsusb.
Since it is an HID, the driver setup should be done automatically when you plug it in, and you should be able to just scan a barcode and it will probably show up on your Linux computer as if it were typed by a keyboard.
By the way, I don't think you can really "create" a virtual COM port. Normally the way it works is that the device's USB descriptors say that it has a USB CDC ACM virtual COM port, and the Linux USB drivers read these descriptors and use it to set up the PC side of the virtual COM port.

Linux and Primesense

I have for a longer time tried to get my Asus Pro Live sensor to work on Linux, currently Fedora, but I have tried ubuntu 12.04 and Ubuntu 13.10 as well. I have installed openni, openni2 and sensor_master on my computer. Everything compiles, but when I try to run NiViewer, all I get is
Could not open "1d27/0600#3/4": Failed to set USB interface!
The 55-primesense-usb.rules file is present in /etc/udev/rules.d/ and when I type lsusb it says:
Bus 003 Device 004: ID 1d27:0600 ASUS
I have googled for it but cannot find anything helpful. Does anyone have a clue where the problem is?
Some of the output from dmesg:
[55363.811218] usb 3-4: new high-speed USB device number 6 using xhci_hcd
[55363.826016] usb 3-4: New USB device found, idVendor=1d27, idProduct=0600

I have tried both usb 2.0 and 3.0 and it works in windows.

The Asus Pro, like any other webcam, needs to reserve USB bandwidth, and this should be adaptive depending on the actual capture resolution and bandwidth, but that is not always the case: many WebCams, like Logitech C910 "preventively" reserve a chunk of USB capacity large enough to prevent other webcams from using it. The UVC driver, which is pervasively used in Linux knows about this under the feared I get a "No space left on device" (-28) error when trying to stream from more than one camera simultaneously., see UVC driver FAQ. This seems to be your issue. Trying to connect the cameras in your system in different USB port configurations can help.
