Hi,
I’ve just installed this image ( https://rcn-ee.com/rootfs/bb.org/testing/2016-12-18/console/BBB-blank-debian-8.6-console-armhf-2016-12-18-2gb.img.xz ) on a BBB rev C, and a BBB with the 2GB flash. Both are behaving the same. They show up as an ethernet device, but not as a serial port. lsusb on the host confirms that they are not behaving as a serial port:

I have two BBGW which appear fine as ttyACM0 and ttyACM1, but I haven’t reflashed them from the stock image. Is there a way to enable this on the BBB image?
Thanks,
Jeremy
