Issue using PL2303GS device on Kali Linux

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

 



Hi 

I just wanted to use a USB/serial TTL Converter that is using the  Prolific PL2303GS Chipset on Kali Linux 2022.1-virtualbox-amd64.
The device is a waveshare PL2303 USB UART Board (Type C)
(see here: https://www.waveshare.com/pl2303-usb-uart-board-type-c.htm )

Uname -a shows
Linux kali 5.15.0-kali3-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 5.15.15-2kali1 (2022-01-31) x86_64 GNU/Linux

It does not seem to work / be recognized and thus useable under linux and this is what I get using dmesg after plugging in the device and connecting it to my Virtualbox and thus I am sending this message as instructed 😊
(I am using Virtualbox Version 6.1.32 r149290 (Qt5.6.2)  with USB 2.0 (OHCI+EHCI) enabled )
