Hi!

I tried to use USB-SERIAL converter shown in
http://www.century.co.jp/products/usb_serial1a.html
that uses Prolific chip.

Prolific USB2SERIAL is not supported yet,
so I tried to "generic".
Then I found typo in the document.

Here is a tiny patch.

BTW. I can not use prolific U2S yet.
Any comments?

   To enable the generic driver to recognize your device, build the driver
   as a module and load it by the following invocation:
-       insmod usb-serial vendor=0x#### product=0x####
+       insmod usbserial vendor=0x#### product=0x####
   where the #### is replaced with the hex representation of your device's
   vendor id and product id.

Thanks for the patch, but it's already in the queue in Alan Cox's tree.

You might want to copy the maintainer of the driver with any questions or patches in the future.

As for this specific device, do you have any specs on the converter? What does the output of /proc/bus/usb/devices look like with the device plugged in?

thanks,
