I have this customer query about the USB port power - would any of you know the answer?
I'm 97.3% sure that is that doing rmmod does cut the power to the USB subsystem -- but you'd have to try it to be sure.
How do I enable USB to Serial?
Load the usb serial modules by typing:
/etc/rc2.d/K94loadserial
To test send a string to a serial device
cat > /dev/usb/tts/0
Check here for new pl2303 driver.
What kind of sound device can I hook up to the stargate? I need to use a microphone on the stargate. Has anybody ever tried that before?
You might try the USB route. Look at something like the EDIROL USB <==> Audio in /out. Linux drivers will be an issue. Some students at PSU worked with these drivers on a similar board. Try:
