oh no, I don't think it is a bug.

I mean, this is suposed to be open using some tool named mspdebug of some
sorta:
http://hackaday.com/2010/08/11/how-to-launchpad-programming-with-linux/

But I know this chip is a usb to serial adapter, only the product Id is
exchanged to be a Development Tool. To change the vendor and product id, I
found a how-to here :
http://www.brimson.com/downloads/ti_usb_multitech_release_notes-1.1.txt

It doesn't seem to do nothing, but maybe I have to write some code on the
msp before. I haven't used this board much, but it is the only thing I have
to test now - I need to interface with   a gps chip, but I have no serials
available, so later I plan to use this chip. I know I have loaded this as a
serial long before...
