Hi,                                                                                                                                           

I have a USB device (a Burnside Desktop Mobile) which I know
has a CP210x usb serial chip on it.                                                                                                           

When I plug it in, lsusb lists it  as a "Burnside
Desktop Mobile DTM001" with the ID 10c4:813d.                                                                                                         
I notice this in cp2101.c that ships with 2.6.12 :                                                                                            

static struct usb_device_id id_table [] = {
	{ USB_DEVICE(0x10C4, 0xEA60) },	/* Silicon Labs factory default */                                                                    
	{ USB_DEVICE(0x10C4, 0x80CA) }, /* Degree Controls Inc */                                                                             
	{ USB_DEVICE(0x10AB, 0x10C5) }, /* Siemens MC60 Cable */                                                                              
	{ } /* Terminating Entry */                                                                                                           
};                                                                                                                                            

Do I simply add my device to this list?                                                                                                       

To make matters more complicated, I am running kernel 2.6.11.12, and
don't want to change it now (long story).  Is there any way I can try to
use this module from 2.6.12, with 2.6.11.12?                                                                                                  

many thanks,
