sudo modprobe ftdi_sio vendor=0x0403 product=0x6001

If not then you have screwed up your 12.04 somehow.
Wipe it and start again.

It is part of the standard kernel

ftdi_sio should already be there in the kernel ...

From looking at your pastebin (which gives exactly what I was hoping from dmesg when I spoke to you in IRC ... ) Try:

sudo modprobe ftdi_sio vendor=0x0403 product=0x6001

See if that works.

...For your reference my distro is same is yours

From my system

i see, but have a look here:

http://pastebin.com/LWyV74T0

there you can allso see from lsusb that:
devices 5 and 6 are x6500
devices 36, 37, 25, 26 are Lancelot

Maybe you see something i dont.

I googeled for apt-get install ftdi_sio by now i have not found anything usable. But thanks for the help Smiley

Dude,
First use apt-get install. When i was young i was trying to compile everything by myself. I realasied that i can not maintain whole linux distro Smiley
I am joking.

Did you read cgminer/Readme
did you apt-get install
libudev headers
        (This is only required for FPGA auto-detection and is linux only)

        libusb headers
        (This is only required for ZTEX support)


Just goolgle about apt-get install ftdi_sio i guess you miss libusb-dev (if there is such thing) or something else which for sure can be installed with apt-get

Good luck
It shall be somewhere inside:)

ttyUSB0 is not present in /dev on ubuntu 12.04, so it does not work !! If anyone has a workaround for this, since the boards seems to be recognized (when i turn of one lancelot 3 more files appears in /dev but i cant figure which ones that are) and mpblm does see them as x6500 boards there has to be a solution.

it works both Icarus and Lancelot believe me. I know from my personal experience.

I can imagine you made a good expirience, but im quite sure your not using ubuntu 12.04 x64

I tried to compile  ftdi_sio (even when they say there that since ubuntu 11.10 it is included in the kernel) but this ends up in telling me that modversions.h cant be found

Just follow it step by step:) All info applies to Lancelot

thanks for the hint, after compilation of the cgminer i end up with the msg all devices disabled, cannot mine! and when i power on a board i cant see any ttyUSB0 in /dev

In mpblm the boards are recognized it shows me x6500 style serials for each board, but the icarus setup dont work

I have just received my Lancelots! They are just a piece of art. I can assure you that ngzhang just rocks:) Everything was done as promised in time. On top of all I have some extra stuff for free.

Thank you very much ngzhang!
I do not have any hesitation that bitstream will be here soon as promised.
ngzhang is an extremely cool guy, who keeps his word.

He doesn't have to change VID/PID to set iVendor/iProduct.
I don't think you are making yourself clear. Please post the link to the FTDI application notes that describe the change you are requesting.

http://www.ftdichip.com/Support/Documents/AppNotes/AN_121_FTDI_Device_EEPROM_User_Area_Usage.pdf

Are you talking about this?

Sorry, it's iManufacturer not iVendor. Here is a generic USB info on these strings: http://www.beyondlogic.org/usbnutshell/usb5.shtml#DeviceDescriptors

If your FTDI PDF, it's mentioned on page 4 (section 1.1) as "Manufacturer" and "Description" strings.
