Whenever it stops working I follow this sequence, which you can match
to the logs.
1) Exit cu by ~.
- if this does not work
try \r~.
- if this does not work
Send SIGHUP, (which so far always worked)
2) Start cu again
- if it prints leftover characters
exit cu again by ~. and continue from step 2)
3) If it still not works and hangs again
- for a few tries
unplug PL2303, wait a second replug and goto step 2)
4) If it still does not work
- Remove PL2303, unload and reload usb (all) and
plug PL2303 again
- If module unloading fails, or interrupts died
(no response to plugging) > reboot
