Which turns into limited value when the supplier changes the guts of
some electronic gimmick and keeps the model number. Happens all the
time.
This is a DSE XH8290 USB/RS232 converter:
Bus 002 Device
Note that there are several different kernel drivers for these USB
<->Serial gadgets. You have to have the correct driver either built-in
to the kernel or the correct module for your particular device loaded.

Interesting.
The shipment I tried only arrived in the country very recently, so it
may be a bad batch.
DSE (Manchester st) have withdrawn them from sale.
Mind you I only tested them on debian based distros, like Ubuntu 7.10
PcLinux 2007, etc.
What distro's are you running them on?

I have several of those as well as the older ones at work, and they all
work with Linux. But I'll double-check today.

You can get them from Computer Dynamics if you have an account or
TradeMe for about $25.

However there is one sold by Dragon PC,

the 3 you have (the "preferred wiring") and you are looking for the
non-preferred one for alan's board. thanks for taking the (not short

Hi,
The pin numbering on a 0.1" header (as found on the motherboard) is
'column-based'.
i.e.
2 4 6 8 . <- there is usually no pin 10 on the COM connector
1 3 5 7 9
Pin 1 is indicated on the circuit board by
* A square solder pad, as opposed to a round pad
* An angled line on the printed b
Still looking for one of these? I have one but not sure which wiring
scheme it is - what is the easy way to tell? No part number on it . . .
Does the numbering on the header plug go 1 2 3 4 5 across the row? Or
is it 1 2 in the first column?

I have three DB9M header, but they are wired wrong. If no-one else has
one, I will resolder one of mine.
Mine are wired like this:
Header DB9
1 1
I have 1 with a 25 pin serial & a 15 pin games port if its of any use,

Actually, according to the manual, an additional serial cable connector is

Ok. I ass
Hi,
Does anyone know how to use a serial port in a non-blocking fashion
without having to call tcdrain to flush the write buffer? Or know where
I should go to find out?:P
Slightly clearer explaination:
In my test program I loop continually calling write.
After calling write enough times I

Urrr, you don't...
USB dosn't have RTS/CTS etc..
It has four wires, +5V, Ground, -Data and +Data. USB is a synchronous

I've just found out that I don't seem to be able to use setserial to
turn on the control lines on my USB serial port. To be honest, setserial
