As all of you can tell from the title, I need help understanding how to communicate to a USB port. Basically I need to send some bits to a usb micro controller and to do so I need to understand how you do it in C for both a Windows and Linux computers. I'm going to be creating my own interface (still figuring that out) which basically works by having the micro controller send out a signal so I can figure out what port it's on and from then on I just start sending the bits to it.
Aug 03, 2017 Limited development is continuing. USB 3.2, to be released in late 2017, will introduce SuperSpeed, doubling the maximum speed of USB 3.1 to 20 Gigabits per second.

A mini USB cable.

2. I'm going to be working with Ubuntu and Win XP, what things will I need to utilize from the OS? 3. Would you recommend a better way to interface to USB? 4. Do I have to repeatedly send a signal when trying to find which usb port the device is on?
As you can tell I'm kind of jumping into this without know what I'm getting myself into. I'm open to any suggestions (other than giving up).

You may have to write a driver for the USB device or uterlize it as a communications port as say you do with usb serial adapters or things like that.
The windows device foundation SDK has methods for dealing with USB devices ( and also quite possable some sample code. ) Documentation can be found here.

The windows device foundation also allows you to write a usermode driver, if you don't want to risk crashing windows :P.
