The should be no need to load the KUSB driver as the chipset is likely
already supported by the kernel and the Ekecraft driver is for MS
Windows. Your username must be a member of the same group as the
/dev/ttyUSB0 com port. When you do:
'ls -l /dev/ttyUSB0'
you will get output that shows the group your device is a member of. In
the case of Debian it is:
$ ls -l /dev/ttyUSB0
crw-rw---- 1 root dialout 188, 0 Apr 13 09:50 /dev/ttyUSB0
So you need to make sure your username is a member of the group. In
this case my username is also a member of the 'dialout' group. There is
a GNOME administration utility as I recall to add a username to a group.
There are also a couple of command line utilities to do it as well.
After making the change you will need to log out and log back in for the
change to take effect.

As CQRlog uses Hamlib, be aware that by default it will use the fastest
serial rate allowed by the backend library. In the case of the K3 that
is 38400 bps.
What version of CQRlog? I've not tried the later 1.0 alphas as of yet.
