I asked the iButtonLink guys and they said it worked for them without any special tweaks so I suspect the problem depends on the kernel or FTDI driver. Paul added some fix for this in 2.8p2. I haven't tested it and since you are running 2.8p2 and still need to patch to turn on hardware flow control I suspect Paul's change doesn't fix things. Here's the description of Paul's change from the 2.8p2 release notes: "6. Add hardware flow control to com port settings in third attempt to set up serial bus master (should help with some USB/serial convertors)." And here is the original discussion where it was found that hardware flow control is needed for the LinkUSB to work: http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_name=AANLkTi%3DE8zGBqoG%2BMwUL8rYTi-3X-m0Lkp2w0ytg-FW2%40mail.gmail.com&forum_name=owfs-developers Cheers, Eloy Paris.- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Nokia and AT&T present the 2010 Calling All Innovators-North America contest Create new apps & games for the Nokia N8 for consumers in U.S. and Canada $10 million total in prizes - $4M cash, 500 devices, nearly $6M in marketing Develop with Nokia Qt SDK, Web Runtime, or Java and Publish to Ovi Store http://p.sf.net/sfu/nokia-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Owfs-developers mailing list Owfs-developers@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/owfs-developers
