- *      Device is found by USB subsystem, enumerated, fimware is downloaded
- *      and the descriptors are printed to the debug log, config is set, and
- *      green light starts to blink. Open port works, and data can be sent
- *      and received at the default settings of the UART. Loopback connector
- *      and debug log confirms this.
- * 
- * 0.1 (01/23/2000) greg kroah-hartman
- *      Initial release to help IO Networks try to set up their test system. 
- *      Edgeport4 is recognized, firmware is downloaded, config is set so 
- *      device blinks green light every 3 sec. Port is bound, but opening,
- *      closing, and sending data do not work properly.
