* On Windows: install a driver (disc that came with plug), and [http://plugcomputer.org/plugwiki/index.php/SerialTerminal/Windows/PuTTY use PuTTY (serial)].
* On Linux, execute the following command:
cat > /etc/udev/rules.d/85-sheevaplug.rules <<'EOF' # if no driver has claimed the interface yet, load ftdi_sio ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ENV{DEVTYPE}=="usb_interface", \ ATTRS{idVendor}=="1c0c", ATTRS{idProduct}=="0102", \ DRIVER=="", \ RUN+="/sbin/modprobe -b ftdi_sio" # add the sheevaplug VID and PID to the list of devices supported by ftdi_sio ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="drivers", \ ENV{DEVPATH}=="/bus/usb-serial/drivers/ftdi_sio", \ ATTR{new_id}="1c0c 0102" # optionally create a convenience symlink for the console device ACTION=="add", KERNEL=="ttyUSB*", \ ATTRS{interface}=="SheevaPlug JTAGKey FT2232D B", \ ATTRS{bInterfaceNumber}=="01", \ SYMLINK+="sheevaplug" EOF 
Then use [http://sourceforge.net/projects/gtkterm/ gtkterm]: use 2 stop bits & 115200 bps speed when creating the profile; keep the defaults for the rest. Instead of gtkterm, you can also use the simpler screen: ''yum -y install screen; screen /dev/ttyUSB1 115200''<br/>
Once connected, if you want to close your terminal session, hit Ctrl-A followed by Shift-K. You'll be asked if you're sure you want to kill this window; just say yes!
