Not specifically. However, I believe the KUSB uses the Prolific PL2303
chipset, and I have had problems with other adapters using this chipset
which were not experienced when using a real serial port. I obtained a USB
adapter using an FTDI chipset which a retailer claimed was "more reliable"
than the Prolific chipset and have not so far experienced any problems with
it.
