Not a whole heck of a lot.  This seems to be the applicable entry:

usb0/2                         connected    configured   ok         Mfg:
Prolific Technology Inc.   Product: USB-Serial Controller D  NConfigs: 1
 Config: 0  <no cfg str descr>

This is what the device itself looks like:

babylon4:root:~:16 # ls -l /devices/pci at 0,0/pci10f1,5350 at 1d
