The patch

** Attachment added: "patch for sanwa pc5000 usb cable (kb-usb2)"
   http://librarian.launchpad.net/7100616/kernel.patch

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: linux-source
  
  I don't know other way to submit a patch, so it goes via bug report. If
  there is a more correct way to do so please give me a note.
  
  I enclose a simple (3 line) patch to enable the Sanwa PC5000 multimeter
  usb cable (KB-USB2). It contains a popular Prolific 2303 chip but with
  different vendor&product ID. The patch was tested on ubuntu kernel
  2.6.20. After applying the path the cable is detected, /dev/ttyUSBx is
  allocated and the communication is taking place without errors.
