I have now bought 4 USB TC-08, i want to run them under Linux.
I have installed the drivers but i get no connection.
When i run lsusb i get this:
Bus 001 Device 004: ID 0ce9:1000
Is this the device id?
Do i have to load some modules manually or is it enough to plug it in to the USB-port and just run some of the example program if it is build correctly?

Hi I have spoke to one of the engineers and here is his response
"The device ID is correct. There are no modules to load.
A frequent problem is incorrect access permissions on the device file (in /dev/bus/usb or /proc/bus/usb) - it must have write permission for the user running the program.
I have attached two files which may help - usbtest is a shell script which will report whether the permissions are correct, and the .rules file is an example of how to fix the problem (with comments explaining its use).
"
Hope this helps.
Kind regards

Would you care to walk me through the process you used, because I cannot get my drivers to work.

Thanks!
It works!
I'm running Ubuntu 8.04 and it worked when i do "sudo" with the drivers.
Thanks!

How far did you get with the installation?
1. What is your output from lsusb with your device plugged in
2. Can you get usbtest to work as root (sudo)
3. Can you get the example program to work as root (sudo)
4. Have you installed the .rules file
5. Have you added your user to the group pico (or the one you choose)
6. Can you get usbtest to work under your account
7. Can you get the example program to work under your account

Did you follow the instructions in INSTALL?
More specifically, did you run ./configure?
Extract from INSTALL
-------------------------------
3. Run the configure script:
./configure
This will check that you have the required prerequisites and set up the
build process for your system. If you intend to use the driver for debugging,
you may want to specify CXXFLAGS like this:
./configure CXXFLAGS="-g -O0"
to enable debug symbols (-g) and turn off optimization (-O0).
4. Build the software:
make
5. Install the software. As root:
make install
The library and header files are installed by default under /usr/local. You
should ensure that /usr/local/lib appears in /etc/ld.so.conf and then run:
ldconfig
to add the new library to the system cache. You are now ready to start using
the library in your programs (or why not start by taking a look at our
example programs?).

I am having the same exact problem as the luca72. The code will not compile on Linux Kernel 2.6.33.6-147 (Fedora 13) with GCC version 4.4.4. Can we please get some help on this issue?

i have compile it with some more include in the attached files, but when i run usbtest also as root i get:
Pico USB device found: /dev/bus/usb/007/003
- It belongs to root (which is you) who has permissions rw-
- The members of group root (which you are in) have permissions rw-
- Everyone else has permissions r--
- You can write to this device and so will be able to use it.
Pico USB device not found. Please try again
the lsusb is:
Bus 007 Device 003: ID 0ce9:1000 pico Technology
But sample program works

I had the same build problems (sleep not declared, etc) when building libusbtc08-1.7.2.
These were fixed by the following modifications.
