yes.

this depends on what device you are trying to connect, as far as im aware the
/dev/usb/tts/x nodes are only for usb-to-serial devices.

make sure you have the following kernel modules loaded by using the "lsmod" 
command

pcipool
usbcore
usb-ohci
usb-ohci-ep93xx


if not load them with "insmod" for example

insmod pcipool
insmod usbcore
insmod usb-ohci

if you want to use usb-to-serial devices you will want to also load the
"usbserial" module as well as the correct module for you adaptor look in the
/lib/modules/2.4.26-ts11/kernel/drivers/usb/serial directory for modules.

once you have the modules loaded, connect the device to the ts7250 and enter 
"dmesg"
into the console, you should see a bunch of usb.c messages indicating a device 
has been
connected.

how you "use" the USB device depends entirely on what type of device it is ;)
