#*(@&$ing FTDI OSX Drivers

July 1, 2009

Hoping to find a solution to FTDI USB serial drivers freezing when I work on developing applications — not sure if it’s just when there’s a lot of data that’s being sent to the machine when applications aren’t reading the data fast enough or what (that seems to be the case that this happens)… but I’ve had to reboot my mac at least 6 times today and it’s getting really old.

I ran into this problem starting about 2 years ago, then stopped doing as much serial development… but now it’s back and I’m really getting annoyed.

And yes, I just verified that I’m running the newest drivers.
