Here is the output of the lsusb command
debian:/proc/bus/usb# lsusb
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 058f:9720 Alcor Micro Corp.
debian:/proc/bus/usb#
I rebooted with my usb-serial device unpluged
When I connected it nothing new was added to dmesg
Below is the tail of dmesg that seems to relate to USB.
I have done some general diging around and can't find much info on
setting up these usb-serial adaptors.
Any assistance greately appricated.
