We need to know whether (0x10c4,0xea60) is already complied into the > cp210x driver. I am replying from a netbook without kernel source Actually, a quick google threw up http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/drivers/usb/serial/cp210x.c and { USB_DEVICE(0x10C4, 0xEA60) }, /* Silicon Labs factory default */ so, unless you have an older version of the driver, it looks as if it is there. So you should see /dev/ttyUSB0 or /dev/ttyUSB1 or whatever. If that doesn't happen, maybe there is a udev rule problem. So please confirm that /dev/ttyUSBsomething is created, and cp210x is loaded (use lsmod). Otherwise we might have to worry above udev as above. ael
