dmesg doesn't say anything like what you say it should say in your post
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=691226. It says:
or: return code = 0x8000002
[ 394.634497] sr0: Current: sense key=0x0
[ 394.634500] ASC=0x0 ASCQ=0x0
[ 396.410520] sr 0:0:0:0: SCSI error: return code = 0x8000002
and the last three lines just keep repeating.
Perhaps I set the vendor and product ID incorrectly. I typed exactly as you
instructed:
sudo modprobe usbserial vendor=0x1199 product=0x0120
