I have a device that I am connecting to it successfully from windows application using a D2XX driver, I am trying to connect to it now from Ubuntu OS ( version 15.04) without success till now.

I installed the D2XX driver.

I did : sudo rmmod ftdi_sio And : sudo apt-get remove brltty

(sudo rmmod usbserial said there is no device like that)

I also added the function FT_SetVIDPID(0x0403, 0x6014 0 to my code

( I took the numbers from the lsusb command output)

I also set the permission to read and write (666) for the com port /dev/bus/usb/001/???

At last I manages to open the port , could write a command to it but did not get any data back ( the FT_Read function receives 0 bytes after timeout)

In the past I managed to connect to the device from a VirtualBox loaded with Debian.

You don't need to install FTDI drivers on Ubuntu. Follow this thread: FDI. This shows you an easy way to make the FTDI work on ubuntu.
