Hey
I am trying to get a USB to Serial adapter working under gentoo so i can connect to an ARM TS-7200 controller. It is currently being detected in /dev/usbdev2.2. I use minicom as a terminal program and i cannot get it to connect to the board.
When i was using mandriva all i had to do was point it towards /dev/ttyUSB0, and change the baud rate to 115200.
I hope someone could help me since im using it for my final project at school
Thanks |

You probably don't have the driver in your kernel. The serial converter drivers are here:
| Code: | Device Drivers --->
USB support --->
USB Serial Converter support --->
<M> USB Serial Converter support
...
<M> USB Prolific 2303 Single Port Serial Driver |
Your adapter may use another chip though, so you need to use the appropriate module. If you don't know which one is the correct one, select them all as modules. With the proper driver, it will appear as /dev/tts/USB0. |
