The driver is at [0]. The file needs to be extracted into /sys/src/cmd/usb/misc
and then mk usbuart.install. Usage is as follows:

        % usb/usbuart;
        % con -b 115200 /n/uart/uia;

I did not submit it to sources, because I had no time to write a manpage, but
the commands to /n/uart/uiactl are the same as to /dev/eia0ctl.

Sincerely,

Christoph
