Syba 8-Port Serial Card Unidentified By Kernel

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello all,

I've just installed a multiport serial card released by an outfit called Syba. This is an 8 port serial-only card with an Octopus style breakout cable. The main chipset on it is an ITE IT8871F.

I've got two questions on this: Is there a driver I should try force loading on it (and if so, what options to use)? and is there any useful testing I can do to report back to the LKML on this card?

Thanks for your time, diagnostic output follows.

The following comes up from an "lspci -vv"
