Seems like it's picking them up, but there is a permissions issue. This is where I got lost before.

I tried following https://github.com/kanoi/cgminer/blob/master/README, but no luck (assuming I did right)

Yeah, it's a permission issue.

If you're running Ubuntu or similar, try running lsusb with sudo:

sudo lsusb

It should list the sticks.

And if you run cgminer with sudo it should work (sudo cgminer ...)

Of course, you might want to actually run the instructions correctly to not need sudo, but at least running it once will confirm that's the issue.

My guess is that you're not using the correct ticks here (`whoami`). Just change that for your username (kurutoga, or whatever it is).
