2 different USB devices with same vendor/product ID, only revision differes.
They both will be handeled by uplcom, but initialization should be different,
because chips are different (PL2303 and PL2303X)

Technically it will be 1 driver, but device initialization should
differ based on revision. (just trying to add some functionality to uplcom.c
to support PL2303X USB-2-Serial chipset)
I have already sent some mail to personal @freebsd.org boxes of people
who were tweaking uplcom.c during last few months, but I think I should
copy it to the list, as it is not the only problem I have.

-------[ Cut here ]---------------
I have recently got USB cable for my Nokia 6100 phone,
which is based on PL2303X chipset, I thought it will work
with uplcom driver, but no, something changed.
After some investigation and USB bus snooping on "Other OS"
I have found that upon connection host sends some special
initialization sequences to the cable.
I have tried modifing uplcom.c to do this initialization, now
I can "cu -l /dev/ucom0" and speak "AT" commands to phone.
But connection to phone is somehow not "binary safe", some
characerts typed will return garbage - for example "F" returns "Щ"
but some characters work OK, and if I will type a working letter -
any one character following will also be OK. So if I type "AF"
it will work correctly
What can be causing such problem?
Patch here: http://gate.intercaf.ru/~lesha/6100/pl2303x.patch
Also Prolific people gave me Linux driver for PL2303X
(it is not included with Linux as for now, and not avaible via
their web site)
http://gate.intercaf.ru/~lesha/6100/pl2303x-linux.zip
This may be of interest.
If anyone of you, magisters, will have some spare time and/or
ideas how to make this work - I will be very pleased.
My kernel programming knowledge is very limitied, not to say "none".
