I connect a USB hub and USB-Serial Converter (Tripp-Lite Model
U209-000-R) and the following is noted in dmesg:

hub.c: USB new device connect on bus1/1, assigned device number 11
hub.c: USB hub found
hub.c: 4 ports detected
hub.c: USB new device connect on bus1/1/1, assigned device number 12
usb.c: USB device 12 (vend/prod 0x2478/0x2008) is not claimed by any
active driver.

So then I insmod usbserial (if I do not do the vendor/product, the
device is registered as a Generic Converter, but is not assigned to
ttyUSB0...)

[root@butters dev]# insmod usbserial vendor=0x2478 product=0x2008

dmesg now reports...

usb.c: registered new driver serial
usbserial.c: USB Serial support registered for Generic
usbserial.c: Generic converter detected
usbserial.c: Generic converter now attached to ttyUSB0 (or usb/tts/0 for
devfs)
usbserial.c: USB Serial Driver core v1.4

[root@butters dev]# ls -al /dev/ttyUSB0
lr-xr-xr-x    1 root     root            9 Jan 30 09:53 /dev/ttyUSB0 ->
usb/tts/0

[root@butters dev]# ls -al usb/tts/0
crw-rw---    1 root     usb      188,   0 Dec 31  1969 usb/tts/0

Now, when I go into minicom there is no response when connected to a
Cisco Switch or Router.  Serial device in minicom is set up as
/dev/ttyUSB0 and modem init and reset strings are empty...

[root@butters dev]# minicom --version
minicom version 2.00.0 (compiled Jul 27 2002)

As you can tell I have a USB hub connected right now, I tried it without
the hub thinking it might be something with power to the USB-Serial
dongle, but even with the dongle hooked directly to the USB port, no
luck.

I am on a Toshiba Satellite 1955-S803 laptop running Mandrake 9.0...

[root@butters dev]# uname -srvm
Linux 2.4.19-16mdk #1 Fri Sep 20 18:15:05 CEST 2002 i686

Any help or troubleshooting tips would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Paul Kincaid
