Hi DR,

This looks like a cable / driver / connector issue. Please refer to these Wiki articles:
CableGuide
CableGuide FTDI OEM Cables

*Linux notes:* Linux generally is quite good with USB to Serial converter drivers. The most likely cause for grief is a connector which doesn't provide good electrical contact. In your case, it looks like serial TX is not making contact. Check your cable and connector.
