USB detection
I am using a BAFO BF-810 USB to serial converter. The problem is, it is not detected on bootup. It works fine if I unplug it and plug it back in again. However, I am using the computer remotely, so I can't be there to plug it in every time. How can I make this device be detected at startup?
I am using Knoppix 3.9, and I have found that I can load the correct driver in a startup script:
Code:
insmod /lib/modules/2.6.11/kernel/drivers/usb/serial/usbserial.ko
But I don't know how to tell Knoppix to scan for the new device after loading this driver. It still won't recognize it until I replug the device.
Thanks in advance!!!

Skimming through the man pages makes me thing that "hotplug" may be what you are looking for. In particular, try hotplug-knoppix.
Another command that may be worth a shot is "hwsetup -p".
Let us know if those work.

I found that I also had to insmod a driver called pl2303.ko. That got it to work.
Thanks
