Could somebody give me some help in recognizing a USB serial connection. I am using 9.1 and KDE 3.3. Case. I have a camera which still has to be connected via a serial connection. As I have problems with my second serial port (cable or irq) I thought it would be a nice idea to use a usb serial cable. Connecting my camera and switching it on did nothing which was no big surprise because hotplugged devices are not any more found in the (former) "My computer " button but at media there is nothing new either. How can I activate the new usb attached device and where should I find it hotplugged?
here lsusb says mine is "prolific Technology, Inc. PL2303 Serial Port" and modules usbserial and pl2303 loaded. I haven't tried it hotplugged, so if that doesn't work, try booting with it plugged and see if it works. Regards Sid. -- Sid Boyce .... Hamradio G3VBV and keen Flyer =====LINUX ONLY USED HERE=====
