I've got an application that talks to a device via a USB serial port. (PL2301 device.) It worked fine a few weeks ago. Now it doesn't. I can still use minicom to talk with the device. The error I get with the application is a cts timeout error. I checked the port using stty and hardware handshaking is set with both applications, ie the one that doesn't work and minicom. Any ideas on how to proceed would be appreciated. I think I saw a post or two about someone else having a similar problem, but I can't find it. I think it was on this list. Does anyone remember it ?
