Hi,

here's the test programs output and I also set the module option
debug=1 in pl2303.

The testprograms' sources are still in my first mail.

In one terminal I started the listener test, it shows that
it received bytes on ttyS0, tried to write the answer:

$ ./serialtest2 /dev/ttyS0
read: 0x00, written: 0x01
read: 0x01, written: 0x02
read: 0x02, written: 0x03
read: 0x03, written: 0x04
read: 0x04, written: 0x05
read: 0x05, written: 0x06
read: 0x06, written: 0x07
read: 0x07, written: 0x08
read: 0x08, written: 0x09
read: 0x09, written: 0x0a
read: 0x00, written: 0x01
read: 0x01, written: 0x02
read: 0x02, written: 0x03
read: 0x03, written: 0x04
read: 0x04, written: 0x05
read: 0x05, written: 0x06
read: 0x06, written: 0x07
read: 0x07, written: 0x08
read: 0x08, written: 0x09
read: 0x09, written: 0x0a

In another terminal, I started the initiator test twice:

$ ./serialtest1 /dev/usb/ttyUSB0
written: 0x00, read: 0x00 <- sometimes I get one zero byte
written: 0x01, couldn't read
written: 0x02, couldn't read
written: 0x03, couldn't read
written: 0x04, couldn't read
written: 0x05, couldn't read
written: 0x06, couldn't read
written: 0x07, couldn't read
written: 0x08, couldn't read
written: 0x09, couldn't read
$ ./serialtest1 /dev/usb/ttyUSB0
written: 0x00, couldn't read
written: 0x01, couldn't read
written: 0x02, couldn't read
written: 0x03, couldn't read
written: 0x04, couldn't read
written: 0x05, couldn't read
written: 0x06, couldn't read
written: 0x07, couldn't read
written: 0x08, couldn't read
written: 0x09, couldn't read

I also tried some different baud rates (2400, 19200) besides
the fastest 115200 that was default in the testprograms.

Now what?

Oh, did I mention that the pinout of the cable (that I use to loopback
the USB<->serial cable into the same PC) is

DB9 <-> DB9
1,6 <-> 4
2 <-> 3
3 <-> 2
4 <-> 1,6
5 <-> 5
7 <-> 8
8 <-> 7
