Actually, the output he sent is exactly what you get if you don't have a driver installed. It just states that a device was plugged in and nothing more. If you have a driver then it gives you a bit more output. The other post seems right - if make menuconfig is being used look under the USB settings where USB serial support is enabled, and there will be a list of supported serial devices. I believe that the actual config item CONFIG_USB_SERIAL_FTDI_SIO will appear in the help pop-up when you have the right item selected. Alternatively it shows up in the bottom-right pane if you use make xconfig. You can also safely just edit this line in the .config file (remove the # and set it =y, and get rid of the "is not set" verbage). -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFE4FgcG4/rWKZmVWkRAs7IAKChwzfNLytNK38jgrfttZ2f0iCJXgCfTCKt srjzSXHVAovDJVuxXzGuiCo= =1/ki -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
