I recently got an Edgeport/421 (4 USB, 2 RS-232 DB-9, 1 parallel) that seemed like it would be really handy since this computer is legacy free and doesn't have any serial ports and having serial ports would be really handy.
http://www.digi.com/products/usb/edgeport.jsp Everything seems to work great. Except the serial ports. Are there any suggestions on what I might need to do to make the serial ports work? >From looking and then taking it apart, it appears to be the newer TI version that is mostly just a TUSB5052 with one of the free ports hooked to a USB Parallel port. http://focus.ti.com/docs/prod/folders/print/tusb5052.html Is there already a USB serial driver that supports the TUSB5052 chip that I can just add the detection to? I am currently looking at uticom.c, but it claims: "XXX: multiport chips are not supported yet" More information if it helps.
