Can't connect with Pro Plus 2 on Fedora 20

Hi,

Firstly, thanks for your work on this very useful software!

But, I've tried using the vtpro and universal clients to connect to my
Pro Plus 2 on Fedora 20, but get the undesirable response below.

I've followed the instructions to execute:

modprobe ftdi_sio vendor=0x0403 product=0xF460

and also put 

options ftdi_sio vendor=0x0403 product=0xF460

in /etc/modprobe.d/options

The device is owned by root, and has group dialout. My non-root user
(john) belongs to this group.

Is there anything else I can do to track down the cause of this error?

(And yes, my Pro Plus 2 displays "PC" and executes the 120 second
countdown.)

Thanks again,

John
