Something additional...when you do the dmesg look, also do a "lsusb" run from the command line. "dmesg" will tell you if the USB dongle bound or not - "lsusb" is sterile. If the USB handler does not recognize the vendor/product id's, it won't work.
The unit should show up as a comm port if it registers. If it does not register, then the kernel will have to be patched to recognize the new id's and hardware. 73 from 807, Richard, N6NKO --- Gerry Creager <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Does it look like a regular serial port in XP?
