Folks,
I need some help. I have tried four serial-to-USB adapters and have yet to
find one that works with RedHat 7.3, version 2.4.18-3 kernel. I need to have
the stated kernel without a recompile. At this point changing kernel is not
possible. Here's what's been tried so far:
* Inside Out Networks Edgeport/1 - requires kernel version 2.4.20;
* Keyspan USA-19QW - requires kernel 2.4.18-3 modification and recompile;
* Belkin F5U103 - flat out didn't work though all indications said it should;
* IOGear G-UC232A - sometimes drops the first character it receives
(only once after app restart and only sometimes).
The IOGear is the only one that was close to working. It's fatal flaw is the
dropping of the first character of a string transmitted by a serial device --
the error was recoverable in one case but not in the other -- not acceptable.
Any ideas why the first character might be dropped?
Can anyone out there give me a recommendation on a manufacturer that has a
serial-to-USB adapter that works?
[I've checked the LiNUX-USB device list. That's how I found the above devices.
I'd really like to get someone with personal experience to respond. In the mean-
time I'll keep checking items in the device list.]
Thank you,
Joel Breazeale
