 1. Attach a serial adapter (USB side) to an XO-1.5.
  2. Start Minicom as root and attach it to ttyUSB0.
  3. Let the XO go to into idle sleep after ~15 seconds; the serial adapter
 will detach from the USB port.
  4. Press a key to wake up the XO-1.5.  Minicom will show an error that it
 cannot open ttyUSB0, and dmesg will show the serial adapter now is
 allocated to ttyUSB1.
  5. Repeat 3 & 4 and the serial adapter will go back to ttyUSB0, and
 somehow Minicom (at least) figures out how to open it again.  Repeat again
 and it goes back to ttyUSB1...

 Workaround: Tell the XO-1.5 not to go sleep while using Minicom.

 Seen in 11.3.0 os7.
