Use a 2.6 kernel release with this driver included in it. Otherwise you are going to have to backport the code yourself. And I would not recommend using this device at all, the vendor will give you a driver, but it violates the GPL, and as such, makes your version of Linux unsupportable by anyone. And, if you redistribute the resulting image, you too will violate the GPL. In short, stay away from this manufacturer. There are many other good usb to serial chips out there that work very well with linux. good luck, greg k-h ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
