WARNING: Later versions of the ftd2xx library appear not to work in the same way
 
as the earlier versions. Version 1.0.4 does not open the USB device unless the
 
kernel module ftdi_sio is unloaded (sudo rmmod ftdi_sio), however unloading this
 
module removes device nodes /dev/ttyUSB0 and /dev/ttyUSB1. These later
 
libraries can be used with or_debug_proxy but the because the ftdi_sio kernel
 
module must be unloaded first the serial consoles disappear. With this in mind
 
it is probably better to use the older driver that does not require this kernel
 
module be unloaded.
 
 
 
FTDI Chip do not make older versions of their drivers available on their website
 
but there are locations where version the static 0.4.16 library can be obtained.
 
 
 
See the discussion at the following URL for a link to the older static library
 
- http://opencores.org/forum,OpenRISC,0,4170 - which must be downloaded and
 
placed in the or_debug_proxy/lib path and a static compile performed, as
 
outline below.
