Thanks for the replies on this.

My converter is a PL2303 based one, the kernel module detects it when it's 
plugged in, but... I can't get data out of it using gpsbabel, it reports 
"Timeout - no data read" or similar. 

Maybe I just got a cheap-and-nasty converter, despite it having the most 
compatible chipset.

Thanks,
Nick
