jap me too ...
anyway for those of you how got the usbport working and a usb-serial cable at
home you can use the following script to autoload the usb-serial
modules.
Note:
1. ipkg-cl install mod-<your-serial-module>
2. create a file in /system/overlay/rc.d/S03Modules
with this ... content
----------8<-------------8<-----------
#!/bin/sh
#
# the modules will be loaded from left to right
# so you'll have to make sure they are in the right
# order!!!
#
# If you need the pl2303 module
# change ftdi-sio.ko to pl2303.ko
MODULE="usbserial.ko ftdi-sio.ko"
# Path to the modules
MODPATH="/system/overlay/modules"
for i in $MODULE; do
if [ -e $MODPATH/$i ]; then
insmod $MODPATH/$i
echo "loading module: $i"
#
# give the kernel some time to init the module
sleep 2
else
echo "ERROR: $i not found in /system/overlay/modules/"
fi
done
---------->8------------->8-----------
3. change permissions chmod +x /system/overlay/rc.d/S03Modules
