USB-to-UART converter



Hi,

I am trying to use a USB-to-UART (8 port) converter. I expected it to
get recognized and create device names like /dev/ttyUSB0, /dev/ttyUSB1
...../dev/ttyUSB7. However, this did not happen.

[Surprisingly, the single USB-to-UART (1 port) converter works fine and
/dev/ttyUSB0 is available for my use]

I did

# dmesg | tail

and found the following output...

----------------------------------------------------------
hub.c: USB hub found
hub.c: 4 ports detected
hub.c: new USB device 00:1d.1-1.1, assigned address 3
usb.c: USB device 3 (vend/prod 0x403/0x6010) is not claimed by any
active driver.
hub.c: new USB device 00:1d.1-1.2, assigned address 4
usb.c: USB device 4 (vend/prod 0x403/0x6010) is not claimed by any
active driver.
hub.c: new USB device 00:1d.1-1.3, assigned address 5
usb.c: USB device 5 (vend/prod 0x403/0x6010) is not claimed by any
active driver.
hub.c: new USB device 00:1d.1-1.4, assigned address 6
usb.c: USB device 6 (vend/prod 0x403/0x6010) is not claimed by any
active driver.
---------------------------------------------------------------

Does anyone know what this means? Can anybody help me with getting my
USB-to-UART working?

The converter that I am using is from "vscom". I downloaded some driver
from their website for linux. But, these drivers does not build.

Has anyone faced similar problem?

with regards,
- KOS
