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... Érico V.
