Hi there,
I'm to get a laptop without serial port. 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)
