Sorry but you're in the wrong place. This is the LMDE forum. Try the main Mint forum instead.

Re: PL2303 not reconized
those Prolific Chips are tricky to get working,
& in my experience, they worked best on win-xp
but not so good on win-7
- yet another reason to keep an old win-xp box running
there is some drivers available:

and it has been discussed here:

Re: PL2303 not reconized
I forgot what PL2303 is and I didn't know that you were talking about a USB device until Pierre jogged my memory. Prolific works with some devices, and not with others. Buy one that's got the FTDI chip in it, and you'll be in business.
