Thanks a lot, unfortunately my notebook died (the display mechanic) so I 
cannot test it at the moment (my workstation box is too far away from my 
servers with serial stuff).
But I think this should be commited, otherwiese more people like me go 
shopping, testing the adaptor, seeing that it gets recognized as Prolific 
2303, purchasing some of them and then at home find out that there is also a 
unsupported version of the 2303 :(
I'm sure someone (bernd?) will commit it for you.

Thanks a lot for your work, I'll test it asap and let you know if I find 
anything unusual.

Best regards,

-Harry
