The PL2303 is supported natively under Linux through the aptly named "pl2303" module. Did you try loading the module with the command "modprobe pl2303"?

Ray, welcome. This thread is quite old. You'll get a better response if you start a new thread. Be sure to mention which distro you have, including version, and maybe also which kernel you have the new thread.
