Dear Sirs.

So, what do I wrong? How can I add needed devices into distributive (I think creating /dev/ttySx by every boot is not "right" idea...)? Thank you an advance. -- Best regards, Serge mailto:se...@nn... |

Did you load the module for the card ? Is the card supported by the vanilla kernel? -- Regards Heiko Zuerker http://www.devil-linux.org |

I thought so too. But they didn't. And I did it "by hand". As I found later I set a wrong place. Serial devices were moved to /dev/tts/* now with simlink in the /dev/ttyS*. But it didn't help anyway. HZ> Did you load the module for the card ? There is no needed in special module - only generic serial support in kernel I think. HZ> Is the card supported by the HZ> vanilla kernel? Yes.

Did you ever get this card working under Linux? I mean not Devil-Linux in that case. Is there probably some special driver for such a card which needs to be loaded? -- MfG / Regards Friedrich Lobenstock ____________________________________________________________________ Friedrich Lobenstock Linux Services Lobenstock URL: http://www.lsl.at/ Email: fl...@fl... ____________________________________________________________________ |

In FC2 no special modules were loaded - only standard/generic (8250/16550 and compatible UARTs) serial support in the kernel. -- Best regards, Serge mailto:se...@nn... |

Can you plug the card into a kernel 2.4 system and see if it's being recognized. Did you check if you find anything via google? -- Regards Heiko Zuerker http://www.devil-linux.org |

SL> PS. I think the source of my troubles is in device files creating. I'll SL> investigate this situation and send the report to the list. DL 1.2rc1. Multi port card - NetMos card based on Nm9845CV chip The card works. But _very_ unstable.... I think that it's the property of only this particular cards. >root@Deviant:~ # cat /proc/pci ... > Bus 0, device 9, function 0: > Serial controller: PCI device 9710:9845 (NetMos Technology) (rev 1). > IRQ 12. > I/O at 0xb800 [0xb807]. > I/O at 0xb400 [0xb407]. > I/O at 0xb000 [0xb007]. > I/O at 0xa800 [0xa807]. > I/O at 0xa400 [0xa407]. > I/O at 0xa000 [0xa00f]. >root@Deviant:~ # cat /etc/init.d/boot.local ... > # Add serial ports to /dev/tts/* > mknod -m 600 /dev/tts/2 c 4 66 > mknod -m 600 /dev/tts/3 c 4 67 > mknod -m 600 /dev/tts/4 c 4 68 > mknod -m 600 /dev/tts/5 c 4 69 > mknod -m 600 /dev/tts/6 c 4 70 > mknod -m 600 /dev/tts/7 c 4 71 > > # Add link from /dev/ttyS* to /dev/tts/ > ln -s tts/2 /dev/ttyS2 > ln -s tts/3 /dev/ttyS3 > ln -s tts/4 /dev/ttyS4 > ln -s tts/5 /dev/ttyS5 > ln -s tts/6 /dev/ttyS6 > ln -s tts/7 /dev/ttyS7 > > # Set serial parameters > > setserial /dev/ttyS2 port 0xb800 UART 16550A irq 12 Baud_base 115200 > setserial /dev/ttyS3 port 0xb400 UART 16550A irq 12 Baud_base 115200 > setserial /dev/ttyS4 port 0xb000 UART 16550A irq 12 Baud_base 115200 > setserial /dev/ttyS5 port 0xa800 UART 16550A irq 12 Baud_base 115200 > setserial /dev/ttyS6 port 0xa400 UART 16550A irq 12 Baud_base 115200 > setserial /dev/ttyS7 port 0xa000 UART 16550A irq 12 Baud_base 115200 -- Best regards, Serge mailto:se...@nn... |
