[PATCH] small FTDI USB serial driver update

From: David A. Ranch
Date: Sun Jul 25 2010 - 10:59:00 EST



Hello Greg,

Thanks for getting back to me! I didn't know what you meant by "Sign-off" but I just researched it per http://lwn.net/Articles/139918 (please let me know if that post doesn't apply anymore). This will be my first kernel patch. Let's try again:

Reason for patch:
-----------------
This patch is for a US Interface, Inc. "Navigator" USB device. Specifically, it's a HAM Radio USB sound modem that also incorporates three pairs of unique FTDI serial ports. The standard Linux FTDI serial driver will only recognize the first two serial ports of an unknown FDTI derived device and this patch adds in recognition to these specific new IDs.


Diffs are against a vanilla 2.6.34

Hello Greg,

I've trying to get an additional vendor's ID added to the fdti_sio driver in Linux without any luck and I was curious if you could help. The changes are posted here:

My second attempt post with no luck
http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-hams/msg02455.html

My first request went to greg@xxxxxxxxx

Are you sure? I don't have any record of it.

Can you resend your patch, with a signed-off-by line, so I can apply it?

thanks,

greg k-h
