Dynex USB serial adapter not working

[kgalbraith]

Hello,

So, I picked up as Dynex usb2serial converter to use with my cisco router/switch. The dongle works fine if plugged into a windows box & puTTy, but I cannot get it to work with Fedora 14. When I try to use cute, mini or command line it tells me it cannot open the connection.

Here is the output from lsusb and dmesg.
lsusb output:
