Notes The DS9094R is the standard USB adapter. It is functionally similar to the DS9490B and PuceBaboon.
One problem is that modern linux kernel has a module, ds9490r, that claims the device. There are several solutions:
  1. disable the module (either in udev, or just remove the module from /lib/modules/...
  2. run "rmmod ds9490r" as root before starting OWFS
  3. run OWFS as root, it will unload the module automatically
