It connects OK when I plug it directly into a USB port on the Mac, but not though a powered USB hub. Is this a known restriction or should it be expected to work through the hub? I've noticed this problem with other devices, so it wouldn't surprise me.
I check the port address (/dev/cu.PL2303-0000xxxx) after connecting the converter on the hub and update the makefile. The symptom I observe is LEDs flashing on the MiniPOV when it starts, but avrdude never issues its usual first message:
and a nice CTRL-C is necessary to interrupt it.avrdude: AVR device initialized and ready to accept instructions
It's not a big deal, but using the hub would be more convenient if it is possible.
Thanks for any advice.
