The same thing as dmesg, I guess.

What is the reason that I first see the converter attached to ttyUSB0 
and then immediately ttyUSB1?  Oh, I think maybe it just tries them 
through to ttyUSB4 or so to see where it is connected.

I am planning to install kde-desktop, because I used it previously in 
Debian, but I kind of like Gnome and want to try it a bit.  I wonder why 
pilot-xfer isn't working.  I would think that is part of the kpilot system.
