I'd love to do that but, unfortunatally, USB-Serial cables are too expensive in Brazil (and I have no sure if I can find these ones in Curitiba). The Prolific 2303 cables I have were lent by Mandriva. Couldn't someone send these cables for me in Brazil? I can send they back when the port is finished. | I agree with most of Pete's comments and like the general idea of moving | the usb-serial core to be more like libata (provider of helper | functions, not getting in the middle of everything). I'll wait for your | next cut to provide specific code comments. Hope to have something to show in the next days. -- Luiz Fernando N.
