OK, here's what I get:

$ sudo /sbin/fxload -s /usr/share/usb/MidiSportLoader.ihx -I /usr/share/usb/MidiSportKS.ihx
no device specified!
usage: /sbin/fxload [-vV] [-t type] [-D devpath]
                [-I firmware_hexfile] [-s loader] [-c config_byte]
                [-L link] [-m mode]
... [-D devpath] overrides DEVICE= in env
... device types:  one of an21, fx, fx2
... at least one of -I, -L, -m is required


So, I look at "man fxload" and find out that the arg to -D should be
a path in /proc/bus/usb, and further that this path should be "a usbfs file ... provided  by the Linux kernel as part of USB hotplugging."
But... /proc/bus/usb is empty when the device is plugged in. 
Maybe my kernel is not really set up right for usbfs. 
Time for more research...
