Now did I find a USB-serial adapter, which reports itself as: ugen0: ATEN International Serial adapter, rev 1.10/0.01, addr 2 I also found (in -stable): # Firmware download for Entrega Serial DB25 adapter. # device "Entrega Serial with UART" product 0x8001 vendor 0x1645 release 0x0101 attach "if ! kldstat -n usio > /dev/null 2>&1 ; then kldload usio; fi" attach "/usr/sbin/ezdownload -v -f /usr/share/usb/firmware/1645.8001.010 1 /dev/${DEVNAME}" Is that kld usio something that is generically usable for USB-serial converters? If yes, where can I find it, I don't seem to have an usio around. tia (and please bear with me, this is my first USB device) Wilko -- | / o / /_ _ wilko@FreeBSD.org |/|/ / / /( (_) Bulte Arnhem, the Netherlands To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
