Hi list, is it possible to use an USB2Serial-adapter with an Soekris or Alix board? I know the Soekris have a 2nd port (I need for MWI to a legacy PBX) but I then have to drill a hole, and I like to try an Alix 2D3 in the future.
This is what I get on a net4801 with the adapter (PL-2303) plugged in: ----------------- dmesg | grep usb usbcore: registered new interface driver usbfs usbcore: registered new interface driver hub usbcore: registered new device driver usb usb usb1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice usb 1-1: new full speed USB device using ohci_hcd and address 2 usb 1-1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice usbcore: registered new interface driver usb-storage usbcore: registered new interface driver hiddev usbcore: registered new interface driver usbhid drivers/usb/input/hid-core.c: v2.6:USB HID core driver ------------------ ll /dev/*usb* crw-rw---- 1 root root 189, 0 Dec 20 2008 /dev/usbdev1.1 crw-rw---- 1 root root 253, 0 Dec 20 2008 /dev/usbdev1.1_ep00 crw-rw---- 1 root root 253, 1 Dec 20 2008 /dev/usbdev1.1_ep81 crw-rw---- 1 root root 189, 1 Dec 20 2008 /dev/usbdev1.2 crw-rw---- 1 root root 253, 2 Dec 20 2008 /dev/usbdev1.2_ep00 crw-rw---- 1 root root 253, 4 Dec 20 2008 /dev/usbdev1.2_ep02 crw-rw---- 1 root root 253, 3 Dec 20 2008 /dev/usbdev1.2_ep81 crw-rw---- 1 root root 253, 5 Dec 20 2008 /dev/usbdev1.2_ep83 ------------------ lsusb Bus 001 Device 005: ID 067b:2303 Prolific Technology, Inc.
