I notice that "man uftdi" > does not mention "FIDI" (granted "FTDI" is close). Odd - I actually read your original mail as "FTDI" and not "FIDI", which is why I recommended the uftdi(4) driver. The best way of matching a USB device to an unloaded driver, is to check for the VID (Vendor ID) and PID (Product ID) of the device and compare them to those listed in the various drivers.
