Hello Greg,

             No the driver is not working properly for me.I have connected RS-485
interface card to the USB-Serial adaptor through which I am controlling six MCM card(
Control & Monitor unit). When I send command to MCM 2 , command also goes to MCM 10 & 0.
When I checked on the oscilloscope, I found out that instead of going some ten bytes,
large number of bytes are going out.

Current kernel version have that RTS support, but for 2.6.25 it doesn't have. 

I am having confusion that form where so many bytes are going out.
If you can help me out,I would be very thankful to you.

Thanks,
Raju.
