Andrew,

This should patch your version of the ecos_usbserial.c Linux driver. It 
brings in endpoint check functions for older versions of the kernel. I 
tried this on Fedora 6 (older) and Fedora 8 (newer) and it worked on both.


Thanks for the help with this. I'm relieved to have a single version 
that works with both Windows and Linux hosts. I would have never thought 
of doing it this way.
