Of course its never that simple. Most "serial" busses are actually multiple wires which send information in parallel.. And nowdays a lot of devices have multiple serial interfaces that are not clock synchronous with each other to get higher bit rates than parallel can do. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
