This applies to Ubuntu and Ubuntu-based Linux versions and all MXWendler versions
Problem
You start with a USB dongle attached but the log states there is no dongle found.
Background
Actually a dongle is found, but it cannot be read because of a udev permission issue
Solution
Enable the correct permissions for the USB dongle with the following command sequence issued in a shell
$ sudo touch /etc/udev/rules.d/999-ft-mxw.rules
$ sudo echo "SUBSYSTEM==\"usb\",ATTRS{idVendor}==\"096e\",MODE=\"0666\"">/etc/udev/rules.d/999-ft-mxw.rules
$ sudo /etc/init.d/udev restart
