Fedora Core 6, serial-u16550 how-to?

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

 



This is probably something simple, but I've been beating my head against the 
wall for several days now, and google isn't providing any answers that seem 
to work.

I have two machines, one with a fresh Fedora Core 6 install, and one that 
also has FC6 and has taken the worst of my poking.

I'm trying to get the serial-u16550 MIDI driver working.

On the fresh machine, if I:
setserial /dev/ttyS0 uart none
/sbin/modprobe snd-serial-u16550 port=0x3f8 port=0x3f8 irq=4 speed=38400
I get "FATAL: Module snd_serial_u16550 not found."

Is there a way to install and configure this driver on FC6 short of 
downloading alsa-drivers and configure / make / make install ?

Because when I do THAT on the second machine (1.0.13), both commands work, 
but aconnect -l says :
open /dev/snd/seq failed: no such device
and  when I /sbin/modprobe snd-seq
it says:
Error inserting snd_seq (snip) unknown symbol in module, or unknown 
parameter

And I've read postings that seem to indicate that downloading alsa-drivers 
and trying to configure/make/make install into a Fedora Core 6 installation 
is a bad idea.

Any help, please?

John
