I picked up one at a local Computer Fair recently. Generic made in China model. All it has on it it Model U232-P9. It works on my Testing Laptop(s) and they use the same kernel that Etch does IIRC, 2.6.18-4. Here are the syslog entries when it is installed. usb 5-5.4: new full speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 4 usb 5-5.4: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice usbcore: registered new driver usbserial drivers/usb/serial/usb-serial.c: USB Serial support registered for generic usbcore: registered new driver usbserial_generic drivers/usb/serial/usb-serial.c: USB Serial Driver core drivers/usb/serial/usb-serial.c: USB Serial support registered for pl2303 pl2303 5-5.4:1.0: pl2303 converter detected usb 5-5.4: pl2303 converter now attached to ttyUSB0 usbcore: registered new driver pl2303 drivers/usb/serial/pl2303.c: Prolific PL2303 USB to serial adaptor driver Hope this helps Wayne PS: $10 US -- It works!
