Bus 001 Device 007: ID 067b:2303 Prolific Technology, Inc. PL2303 Serial Port Do I need to use the +v to get the PID and VID or are these them, and I'm just not seeing it? Having just Googled I *think* the vendor is 067b and the product is 2303 as the page I found says they are both Hex separated by a colon. Nothing else on the line fits. Would have been handy if the README had given an example of what it meant by PID and VID, but they probably figured if I was installing from source I ought to know *ahem* Kind regards, Julian PS Robin I think those errors are from the MultiCard reader as a couple of the ports have cards and some don't. Probably trying to read cards not inserted. I think. -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.
