Found this from another mailing list.  If your using a USB-serial  
adaptor (W/PL-2303 chip) and looking for Universal Binary version of  
driver for USB-serial this may be the solution.

Keyspan does have a UB driver already and it recently went GM and  
good idea to update if you were using the beta.
