Hi,
First of all I apologize for my poor knowledge of English ...

I'm having problems with a USB serial adapter Prolific PL2303.
My Linux distribution is Ubuntu 9.10 with kernel 2.6.31-20.
the adapter is recognized and the file ttyUSB0 is also created.
But the serial device receives and sends no reply.
On the Internet I found some information concerning the possibility that this adapter is a pl2303x instead pl2303, as the command lsusb shows the value of "bmaxpacketsize0 64".
Have any ideas about how to fix this problem?
The "x" device should work with the latest driver, can you try out a
newer kernel version?  The 2.6.31 kernel was known to have problems with
the pl2303 and other tty drivers.

thanks,

hi,

i've installed kernel 2.6.34-rc2 but there was no change
there may be an old working kernel?

Hm, what kind of messages do you get from the kernel log when you plug a
device in and then start sending/receiving data through it?

Also, are you sure you have the flow control set up properly?  That
always tripps me up :)

thanks,

about flow control, i've tried it on and also off, but nothing happens
this kind of devices (i've bought two different brands) seem to be deaf!
