Hi all,

i am just equipping one of my devices with a serial USB port to use this as a 
simple debug console to be displayed on my linux box.

The driver lists a device with vendor/product id 05f9/ffff as the generic 
serial device. My device is compatible with this and works, but i don't like 
to use that particular address which belongs to a company named PSC Scanning 
Inc. Why is this called the "Generic" device? I'd like to have my device 
being accepted by any linux box without modifying the usbserial driver (by 
adding more device entries) and without giving special parameters to the 
module during load time. Is "stealing" the 05f9/ffff id the only way to have 
my device being detected by a linux "out of the box"?

The device database does imho not list any device with this ids as being 
compatible with linux. What kind of device is this, anyway?

Ciao,
  Till
