I got it working! For those who may have the same problem, the solution is pretty simple. I simply changed for another adapter. At first I used an adapter identified as HL-340. I tried an adapter from Belkin and it worked like a charm. I did not need to load the module pl2303 only the module garmin_gps is enough.
Thanks to everybody who tried to find a solution. Bernard On 8/29/07, Bernard <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hello group, > > I try to communicate with my GPS via a USB port but without success.
