Hello, I'm trying to install the Belkin F5U109 USB-serial adapter in my debian install running 2.4.18. Searching google for help yielded some mails from this list, but I didn't find anything conclusive.
Evidently the belkin module is not the right one to use, but rather the mct_u232 is the module that has support for the belkin F5U109. I install it and usbserial, and everything looks good when I plug it in: --- May 23 16:54:47 cottonmouth kernel: hub.c: USB new device connect on bus1/2, assigned device number 3 May 23 16:54:47 cottonmouth kernel: usbserial.c: Magic Control Technology USB-RS232 converter detected May 23 16:54:47 cottonmouth kernel: usbserial.c: Magic Control Technology USB-RS232 converter now attached to ttyUSB0 (or usb/tts/0 for devfs) --- Note that it's not actually a Magic Control Technology USB-RS232 converter; its a Belkin. I'm guessing Magic Control Tech OEMed the product? Anyway, the device has three lights on it: LINK, TX, and RX. The link light is always on when it's plugged in. When I echo 'some stuff' > /dev/ttyUSB0, the LINK light blinks, but nothing else happens. On a windows box, when I send stuff, the TX light does blink (as it should). The device I'm trying to control only works at 2400 baud, so I set the baudrate: stty 2400 < /dev/ttyUSB0. The device doesn't show any sign of being sent anything, though. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong here? As far as I can tell, the mct_u232 should work fine. I checked the source code and saw a comment indicating that it was updated to support the Belkin F5u109. Any help would be appreciated! _______________________________________________________________ Don't miss the 2002 Sprint PCS Application Developer's Conference August 25-28 in Las Vegas -- http://devcon.sprintpcs.com/adp/index.cfm _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe, use the last form field at: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linux-usb-users
