Title: USB TO RS232 WHAT I WANT Post by: a222k on October 23, 2008, 03:25:31 03:25 Hellow everyone,

I can just say that I have a USB->serial convertor (factory made) with pl2303 and it works fine in linux. I had problems with FT232 instead... PL2303 worked for me on Mandriva 2008.0! The cable is called UC232A, made by Aten. Remember, in linux the port is ttyUSB ! Title: Re: USB TO RS232 WHAT I WANT Post by: a222k on October 24, 2008, 12:38:49 00:38 Thanks maddoc for responnce

Check this http://www.ftdichip.com/Products/FT232R.htm Very simple to use, full modem control + user configurable optional I/O I did a couple of project with no problems. Drivers compatible with MS Windows XP, 2K, VISTA and with LINUX. All the best Title: Re: USB TO RS232 WHAT I WANT Post by: maddoc on October 24, 2008, 08:30:03 08:30 What is the output of lsusb with the prolific adapter plugged in?
The single problem I know from some prolific based adapters is that they sometimes loose the first byte when setting up communication for the first time, then they work ok. It it not advised to send/receive data by using "cp or cat /dev/ttyUSB0" Title: Re: USB TO RS232 WHAT I WANT Post by: a222k on October 27, 2008, 03:19:22 15:19 What is the output of lsusb with the prolific adapter plugged in?

Or just on the kernel you've built?
Maybe you missed something in the kernel config... Title: Re: USB TO RS232 WHAT I WANT Post by: markhao on November 12, 2008, 05:20:35 17:20 how about CP2102 of silabs? AFAIK, there is a chip in silabs to convert USB to UART... hope that helps.
