It seems almost certain the permissions for /dev/ttyUSB* won't stick, unless you fix them with udev rules (or some other means but udev's the tool for the job in my opinion). Do you really want to set all ttyUSB* to 777? Not 666 or 660 for example? The usual way is to apply a udev rule to a specific USB product and vendor ID which you can get from lsusb. But to change permissions on device files I think you can do KERNEL=="ttyUSB*", MODE="0777" in a udev rule file.
