&gt; &gt; Guys (and gal) - do any of you know how to make a USB device take the 
&gt; &gt; same place in the /dev tree when it's inserted?  Specifically, I have 
&gt; &gt; two USB -&gt; serial adapters in my machine.  When it starts up, they seem 
&gt; &gt; to &quot;swap&quot; places randomly.
&gt; &gt; 
&gt; &gt; As an example, typically my machine will boot with
&gt; &gt; Device 1 assigned to /dev/ttyUSB0 and
&gt; &gt; Device 2 assigned to /dev/ttyUSB1
&gt; &gt; 
&gt; &gt; However, sporadically it will boot with:
&gt; &gt; Device 1 assigned to /dev/ttyUSB1 and
&gt; &gt; Device 2 assigned to /dev/ttyUSB0
&gt; &gt; 
&gt; &gt; I don't think the devices have changed which physical port they are 
&gt; &gt; plugged into.
&gt; &gt; I'm not sure what config file I should modify, or where to look for this 
&gt; &gt; issue.  It's affecting my apps that are looking for specific devices on 
&gt; &gt; specific file handles (/dev/ttyUSBx).
&gt; &gt; 
&gt; &gt; Can anyone shed any light on this for me?
