the more popular CM11/CM11A/CM15/CM17 versions all of which have serial

1. The Python driver written by Andrew (www.cuddon.net), requires
sudo/root permissions. To make the USB driver work for any user, do the
below:
Add this to /etcudev/rules.d/cm19a.rules
#Allow all users to read and write to the CM19a X10 Transceiver (USB)
SYSFS{idVendor}=="0bc7", SYSFS{idProduct}=="0002", MODE="666"
2. Blacklist two modules (in 10.04) so that the CM19a is seen by the system:
Edit using vim or nano /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
Add the following two lines at the bottom of the file:
blacklist lirc_atiusb
blacklist ati_remote
Reboot the machine so that the modules are unloaded and the udev rules
are updated at the same time.

For those of you using a newer version of the CM19A on Mac OSX, you may find that you need to update the end points. For me, those endpoints were 0x083 and 0x004. You can find these in the CM19aDriver.py file.
Use:
READ_EP_ADDRESS = 0x083
WRITE_EP_ADDRESS = 0x004
Instead of
READ_EP_ADDRESS = 0x081
WRITE_EP_ADDRESS = 0x002
The receiving was causing issues as well, so I ended up removing it (as I only need to be able to transmit myself). SImply commenting out `self.receive()` does the trick. Hope that helps.
