Subject: FT232RL help

Hey guys,

I connect my serial device to a USB port through an FT232RL adapter, but the standard ftdi_sio driver doesn't support it. On Windows, this device works with a proprietary FTDI driver, but I really wouldn't want to use Windows or install a proprietary driver on Linux.

I'm new to serial devices, so someone can please explain how to use your library in my case.  And what does FTDI do differently that their stuff works, and the standard Linux driver doesn't?

I'm sure that many people have the same question, so your help will be MUCH appreciated.

Many thanks,
Nickolai Dobrynin
