If i plug in the device, and look in dmesg i can see that the usb device is being recognized as a serial to usb converter attached to ttyUSB1 (ttyUSB0 is my currentcost device)

[1208295.830040] usb 4-2: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 6
[1208296.034955] usb 4-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
[1208296.041877] ftdi_sio 4-2:1.0: FTDI USB Serial Device converter detected
[1208296.041964] usb 4-2: Detected FT232RL
[1208296.041973] usb 4-2: Number of endpoints 2
[1208296.041980] usb 4-2: Endpoint 1 MaxPacketSize 64
[1208296.041986] usb 4-2: Endpoint 2 MaxPacketSize 64
[1208296.041992] usb 4-2: Setting MaxPacketSize 64
[1208296.043564] usb 4-2: FTDI USB Serial Device converter now attached to ttyUSB1

Can I just connect to ttyUSB1 with 38400 8N1 and read the device? If i do that with screen or minicom, I only see garbage.
That ttyACMx device is never created, but is it needed? I am running kernel 2.6.32-38-server Ubuntu lucid64
Does anyone have an example script just to listen for oregon devices to play with?
Ps. Why do all my posts need to be approved first?

The data you receive is hex data.
Try to run RFXmngr under Mono. See also the RFXtrx User Guide.

for Domotiga users new version is released

0.1.204

New version 0.1.204, you must upgrade your database.
Please make a backup of your database and DomotiGa directory first.
Added LogPrefix setting this will be prefixed to server broadcast messages.
Only needed if you run more than one DomotiGa server on your LAN (for development)
Added support for the new RFXComTRX Tranceiver, decoding of all received protocols is supported.
also transmitting of most used lighting protocols is implemented, more added later.
New devices added: La Crosse TX3/4/17, TFA TS34C/Rain/Uv/Wind, Chacon EMW200, Impuls.
New features build and shared by Francois:
It is now possible to enable/disable events from an action script.
Added a macro editor Events->Edit Macro.
A macro is a formula used in conditions (and action, but not done yet).
One can manage these macro's from the new menu entry:
The macro are available in the condition editor. This helps having readable scripts.
Note: you cannot use macro inside another macro.
Added a calendar editor Edit->Calendar.
You can select days and the calendar module will automatically compute and maintain a globalvar
called NextPlanning which holds the closest next selected day.
This global var can then be used for some specific events.
Two new options added to device editor option tab:
One is 'repeat state', the current state of the device is sent again each X minutes.
Useful for non reliable (non bi-directional) devices.
Second is 'reset state' which resets (valueUpdate or setDevice if switchable) the state
of a device after X minutes with a given value.
Useful for lets say PIR devices where you can miss the back to normal signal.
Thanks Francois!
Fixed bug in scenario editor result in error while adding scenario.
Stop K8055 poll timer while restarting module.
