Port greyed out under Linux


my issue similar 1 discussed in http://forum.arduino.cc/index.php?topic=27666.0 different.
when plug usbasp usb port on fedora 19 machine running off gigabyte a75 motherboard amd a6-3670 apu, see lsusb:

# lsusb
bus 005 device 001: id 1d6b:0001 linux foundation 1.1 root hub
bus 002 device 002: id 045e:072d microsoft corp.
bus 002 device 001: id 1d6b:0002 linux foundation 2.0 root hub
bus 004 device 001: id 1d6b:0001 linux foundation 1.1 root hub
bus 001 device 001: id 1d6b:0002 linux foundation 2.0 root hub
bus 003 device 002: id 045e:076c microsoft corp. comfort mouse 4500
bus 003 device 001: id 1d6b:0001 linux foundation 1.1 root hub
bus 009 device 001: id 1d6b:0003 linux foundation 3.0 root hub
bus 008 device 002: id 16c0:05dc van ooijen technische informatica shared id use libusb

the last 1 being usbasp's entry. when run dmesg|tail shows:

[ 3047.867513] usb 8-1: new low-speed usb device number 2 using xhci_hcd
[ 3048.011819] usb 8-1: new usb device found, idvendor=16c0, idproduct=05dc
[ 3048.011831] usb 8-1: new usb device strings: mfr=1, product=2, serialnumber=0
[ 3048.011837] usb 8-1: product: usbasp
[ 3048.011843] usb 8-1: manufacturer: www.fischl.de

so presume device recognized , ready used, port menu item still greyed out no matter how run ide: regular user or root (under "sudo" or "su -" not matter). not matter whether insert board port on motherboard or usb hub, , not matter port.

what doing wrong?

i don't think usb serial device there never serial port. try changing programmer: option usbasp. have no idea how use device guessing hooks iscp port, not  uart port.
