USB Ports and Sleep

[tribord]

Hi,

With ubuntu, after every sleep, the number of USB ports on the GPS and AIS change randomly. (/dev/ttyUSB0, or 1 or 2....)
So, It is necessary to change their number in the toolbox
What is the solution to assign a fixed USB number for GPS and AIS ?

eeepc + OpenCPN 2.5 + Unbuntu 10.11 + GPS mouse and AIS (with USB hub)

Seems like you need to read up on "udev".
This has not been discussed much but,check these two posts.

Thank you
The second post gives a good answer but it's hard for a beginner in linux
I will work and report back
