I have mixed experiences with a Prolific Technology PL2303 Serial
adapter: it works great on one machine with a 
    Intel 82801CA/CAM (ICH3) USB controller
and crashes (as in spontaneous reboots) my other machine which uses a
    Intel 82371AB/EB (PIIX4) USB controller

Both machines ran 4.7-STABLE (I did this test on Sun, 3 Nov 2002) and I
used a full backup of my palm pilot as a test.

(See also my email to -stable on Sun, 3 Nov 2002)
