USB-UART device from Exar Co. not working with cdc_acm but usbserial

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi, I've been trying to get this device work in linux Mint Qiana (3.13.0-24-generic) without success.

The XR21V1414 is a multiport USB-UART device. (0x04e2:0x1414)
(The driver provided "Vizzini" causes system crash due a improper initialization of tty_port)
http://www.exar.com/common/content/default.aspx?id=10296

The cdc_acm driver creates the proper ttyACMx but there's no communication with the device.
The only way I could get functional devices was with
# rmmod cdc_acm
# modprobe usbserial vendor=0x04e2 product=0x1414

And there's where I got the message from dmesg that I should contact to get a proper driver for my device.

Thank you for your hard work, I hope this help to more people like me in the future.

This is the output from lsusb, tell me if you need more information
