It appears you're missing the required firmware file.  Thus, until that 
is resolved it will not work.


Best of luck,

Keyspan USA-19QW USB-to-serial dongle

2011-04-10 Thread Rolf Brudeseth
I successfully used my Keyspan USA-19QW USB-to-serial dongle back in 
2007 running Ubuntu.


After several OS reinstalls, I am now on Debian Squeeze, but I am having 
some problems getting it to work.


Is there some user error involved here or should I open a bug?
