It appears as if we have a computer newbie on our hands since he's looking for device manager on Ubuntu ... one of you good linux guys want to take him in hand and walk him through?
I'm no help, I know a bit about linux but like most of the world I live in windows.

Hi Robert,
 
You might want to check to make sure your user has proper permissions.
 
In linux, typically the groups you might need for this kind of
operation include `dialout`, `usb`, and while you're at it you might
as well include `plugdev`.
 
The command to add your user to a group might be `sudo gpasswd -a <user> group`.
 
Once thats finished you might need to refresh your profile. Either try
opening CHIRP in a new terminal, or log out and log back in.

Nigel,
 
Here is some more info, I think this is saying it is attached to /dev/ttyUSB0, but same issue.
 
rabbit@ganymede:/dev$ dmesg | grep tty
