HadiM, That is definitely strange. What does dmesg say?

Mine says this:
dmesg | grep GobiSerial
[    9.176518] USB Serial support registered for GobiSerial
[    9.185275] GobiSerial 1-1.4:1.2: GobiSerial converter detected
[    9.185352] usb 1-1.4: GobiSerial converter now attached to ttyUSB0
[    9.191359] GobiSerial 1-1.4:1.3: GobiSerial converter detected
[    9.191440] usb 1-1.4: GobiSerial converter now attached to ttyUSB1
[    9.191459] usbcore: registered new interface driver GobiSerial
[    9.191461] GobiSerial: 2011-07-29-1026

Not sure if that helps or not...
