Hello,

Here are samples from my computer and how it lists it.

jupiter jonfr # ls /dev/ | grep usb
usb1
usb2
usb3
usb4
usb5
usb6
usb7
usb8
usb9

also.

ls /dev/ | grep ttyS
ttyS0
ttyS1
ttyS2
ttyS3

You can also use lspci to see list of your hardware for your computer.
Please note that I run su, not sudo, but the same command applies
regardless of superuser command format.

Best regards,
Jón Frímann.
