Hello,

I'm looking for those drivers :
ftdi_sio.ko
pl2303.ko
(as usbserial.ko is already present in Alt-F 0.1RC2.) in order to run an Home Automation system on the Alt-F firmware :)

Is it possible to make them available somewhere?

Thank you!

Are the drivers built in the kernel, or external? If builtin, what kernel configuration needs to be turned on? If external, where can its source code be found?

I thought you may already have them, as they are present in this list :
https://code.google.com/p/alt-f/source/browse/trunk/alt-f/ipkgfiles/kernel-modules.lst?spec=svn1643&r=1643


Then they are already present in the kernel-modules Alt-F package, all you have to do is install it.
And as a matter of fact they are:

/ # modprobe ftdi_sio.ko
usbcore: registered new interface driver usbserial
usbserial: USB Serial Driver core
USB Serial support registered for FTDI USB Serial Device
usbcore: registered new interface driver ftdi_sio
ftdi_sio: v1.6.0:USB FTDI Serial Converters Driver

/ # modprobe pl2303.ko
USB Serial support registered for pl2303
usbcore: registered new interface driver pl2303
pl2303: Prolific PL2303 USB to serial adaptor driver

 / # lsmod 
Module                  Size  Used by    Not tainted

Ok, I didn't see the kernel-modules package.

Sorry to have bothered you with that.

Thank you again for your work.
