Hello,

I have a data logger logging data via and FPGA that is
constantly sending data into my PC via an FTDI 232BM
device.

I have no problem under windows using the RTS input
from the FTDI chip to control when my FPGA can send
data back to the PC.

In Windows, I have turned
on "RTS_CONTROL_HANDSHAKE" which lowers the
RTS pin when I am able to send and raises it when I
need to pause.

Under Linux, I have nothing but problems using the 232
device. I use the 245BM without hickup under Linux
(SUSE 9.3 Pro latest released kernel from SUSE
update).

Can someone please help?
