I have a keyspan USB serial dongle that has quit working. It used to work
on a machine with an older kernel (2.6.18???), properly creating the
/dev/ttyUSB device. Unfortunately I no longer have that machine. The
machine it's on now runs a 2.6.26 kernel, and the device is not being
created. The dongle is recognized, but no ttyUSB? are created:
[139761.937391] usb 2-10.3: new full speed USB device using ehci_hcd and
address 50
[139762.046702] usb 2-10.3: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
[139762.047357] keyspan 2-10.3:1.0: Keyspan - (without firmware)
converter detected
[139762.047364] firmware: requesting keyspan/usa19qi.fw
[139762.089684] usb 2-10.3: New USB device found, idVendor=06cd,
idProduct=010b
[139762.089684] usb 2-10.3: New USB device strings: Mfr=0, Product=0,
SerialNumber=0
It used to work with no firmware, but I went ahead and installed the
firmware from the 2.6.27 kernel; no difference. Still no /dev/ttyUSB?
device.
Can anyone shed some light on this?
