I just picked up a new usb-rs232 adapter and was met by the following on
a modern kernel:

But it worked on a bit older Debian Bullseye kernel:

# uname -r
5.10.0-8-amd64

usb 1-2: Manufacturer: Prolific Technology Inc.
usbcore: registered new interface driver usbserial_generic
usbserial: USB Serial support registered for generic
usbcore: registered new interface driver pl2303
usbserial: USB Serial support registered for pl2303
pl2303 1-2:1.0: pl2303 converter detected
usb 1-2: pl2303 converter now attached to ttyUSB0


I'm guessing it just needs a case for this bcdDevice.

Was there ever any resolution to this? I am having the same issue and
have tried multiple combinations of different Raspberry pi os and pi
and get the same issue.

Johan - did you add support for this model? If so how to update to the
latest version so that I can use this usb device?

(forgive the basic questions, I am not very experienced with linux so
don't know what bit I need to update to get the latest usb drivers -
or whatever it is you updated)

Thanks
