Bus 001 Device 005: ID 067b:2303 Prolific Technology, Inc. PL2303 Serial Port.

It is strange your device doesn't work, I verify the control method by
analyze usbmon output from linux host which has VirtualBox running 
gpio test program, but I don't have right to distribute the gpio test
program I think, so I can't help you to figure out why it doesn't work 
for your device.

Ok, but pl2303-gpio maybe a better name?

Thanks.
