You need to recompile the kernel that TS supplies, with newer sources
for the USB Serial modules from a more recent Linux kernel (2.4.28, to
be specific). The details about compiling the kernel are in the "Linux
for ARM on TS-72xx User's Guide" from the TS Web site -
'arm-linux-ts72xx.pdf'. You need the gcc-3.x cross compiler installed
on your system, as well.

It make be a good idea to try to configure and build the TS kernel
as-supplied first, just to make sure that you can do that.

Basically:
- Download and expand the ts11 Linux source tarball (from TS web site)
- Configure the kernel to compile the USB module(s) that you need.
- Download and expand the standard 2.4.28 kernel from kernel.org
- Copy all of the source files (.h, .c, .S) from the
'drivers/usb/serial' directory in the 2.4.82 source tree into the same
place in the ts11 source tree.
- (Re)build the ts11 kernel with the new sources in place.
