Virtual Serial Port Driver for Linux (VSPDL)
VSPDL is distributed as a gzipped TAR archive and RPM package. System requirements and the installation procedure can be found here.
VSPDL
This release was tested in CentOS 6.3, Mandriva 2011, OpenSuse 12.1, OpenSuse 12.2, Debian 6.0.6, Ubuntu 12.04, and Mageia 4.5.
Note: you don’t need x86_64 for now, it is binary-compatible.
