Hi Brad, Firstly, I steer clear of USB serial adaptors due to the unreliability i have experienced from models I've used. Secondly, if the firmware is GPL, this is a problem since GPL is not compatible with BSD. On top of that the firmware is a sort of binary blob, which will never be used in any OpenBSD system. Your best bet is a clean-room reverse engineer. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful. -- Aaron Mason - Programmer, open source addict I've taken my software vows - for beta or for worse
