Hey,
If I'm not mistaken pl2303 based cables have/had problems handling baudrates above 115200, there was a recent update into the kernel tree, but I've never tested it.
If you have FTDI based cable try it out, i have one based on FT4232 and it works flawlessly, pl2303 cable gave me a lot of trouble before.
You can still run osmocom-bb on 115200 cable but I believe it's not going to be sufficient for sniffing and i think you'll need to patch the code a bit for 115200 to work (perhaps someone from osmocom can guide here?).
Cheers, Lukas

Hello list,
I'm newbee so excuse me for my very basic question. I follow all the instructions on srlabs.de/gprs given by Karsten
I have a C123 and a USB / jack 2.5mm - pl2303 based :(
All steps are fine until I try to programm the compal ram ;)
./host/osmocon/osmocon -m c123xor -p /dev/ttyUSB0 ./target/firmware/board/compal_e88/layer1.compalram.bin
I get :
...
PROMPT1... ... PROMPT2... handle_write(): xxxx bytes (xxxx/yyyy) ... ... handle_write(): xxxx bytes (xxxx/yyyy) Received 1 byte : xx Received 1 bytes : yy ... ... Finally I received e.r.r.o.r (byte by byte) NOT ACK RECEIVED...
I can also get (not with the same firmware...) :
... PROMPT1... ... PROMPT2... handle_write(): xxxx bytes (xxxx/yyyy) ... ... handle_write(): finished
and then... nothing...
I'm going to test the cable, as Philipp has told to Pavel. I also bought a RS232 / Jack unlocking Motorola (C123) cable and I own a BlackBox FTDI based USB/RS232 cable... So I'll test it as soon as I receive the cable.
Do you think is a matter of cable, who is supposed to be osmocom compatible, or a phone issue or even the USB port... ?
Thank you very much for your help and excuse me again with this kind of 'stupid' question about cable. I read almost all the subjects, I did a lot of experimentations in a lot of git branch (master, testing, burst_ind - of course not working with PL2303 ... + d1cb8ea9b784c7acbafbb2fdcedbdf4655c2f6f5 not working too)
I think it must work at least in the master branch...
