Enabling a four-port serial card

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

 



Dear All,

I'm trying to enable a four-port serial card (you'ld be 
surprised how many pieces of equipment still have 
RS232 interfaces). I'm using Fedora 7 on a  quad-core
Intel Q6600 machine with 4GB of memory. 

#/sbin/lspci -vvvx shows the following:

07:01.0 Serial controller: NetMos Technology PCI 9845 Multi-I/O Controller (rev 01) (prog-if 02 [16550])
    Subsystem: LSI Logic / Symbios Logic 0P4S (4 port 16550A serial card)
    Control: I/O+ Mem+ BusMaster- SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop- ParErr- Stepping- SERR- FastB2B-
    Status: Cap- 66MHz- UDF- FastB2B+ ParErr- DEVSEL=medium >TAbort- <TAbort- <MAbort- >SERR- <PERR-
    Interrupt: pin A routed to IRQ 21
    Region 0: I/O ports at 1030 [size=8]
    Region 1: I/O ports at 1028 [size=8]
    Region 2: I/O ports at 1020 [size=8]
    Region 3: I/O ports at 1018 [size=8]
    Region 4: I/O ports at 1010 [size=8]
    Region 5: I/O ports at 1000 [size=16]
00: 10 97 45 98 03 00 80 02 01 02 00 07 10 20 00 00
10: 31 10 00 00 29 10 00 00 21 10 00 00 19 10 00 00
20: 11 10 00 00 01 10 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 10 04 00
30: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 0a 01 00 00

when I do a setserial I get this:

# /bin/setserial -avg /dev/ttyS*
/dev/ttyS0, Line 0, UART: 16550A, Port: 0x1030, IRQ: 21
        Baud_base: 115200, close_delay: 50, divisor: 0
        closing_wait: 3000
        Flags: spd_normal skip_test

/dev/ttyS1, Line 1, UART: undefined, Port: 0x02f8, IRQ: 3
        Baud_base: 921600, close_delay: 50, divisor: 0
        closing_wait: 3000
        Flags: spd_normal skip_test auto_irq

/dev/ttyS2, Line 2, UART: 16550A, Port: 0x1028, IRQ: 21
        Baud_base: 115200, close_delay: 50, divisor: 0
        closing_wait: 3000
        Flags: spd_normal skip_test

/dev/ttyS3, Line 3, UART: 16550A, Port: 0x1020, IRQ: 21
        Baud_base: 115200, close_delay: 50, divisor: 0
        closing_wait: 3000
        Flags: spd_normal skip_test


Clearly /dev/ttyS1 is not OK, but I've no idea how to
set it up so it is OK  - I'd be grateful for any help.

Thanks,
David Scriven
