I installed a 2 port serial PCI card on a system running CentOS 4.3,
but I can't get the additional serial ports to work. The card I used
is from StarTech (http://www.startech.com/Product/ItemDetail.aspx?
productid=PCI2S550&c=US). When it is detected by kudzu, it shows up
as a "NetMos Technologies PCI 9835 Multi I/O Controller". I've
included the output of "lspci" and "cat /proc/pci" below.
The (very sparse) instructions for Linux support for this card state
that you should look for the string "serial port x" in the contents
of /proc/pci, and then use that information with the setserial
command to configure the port as follows:
# setserial /dev/ttyS2 port 0xc000 uart 16550 irq 11 baud_base
115200
The problem is that I can't find the equivalent of the "0xc000" and
the IRQ on my system in the contents of /proc/pci. Here is what the
built-in, working serial port looks like:
# setserial -a /dev/ttyS0
/dev/ttyS0, Line 0, UART: 16550A, Port: 0x03f8, IRQ: 4
Baud_base: 115200, close_delay: 500, divisor: 0
closing_wait: 30000
Flags: spd_normal skip_test auto_irq
Any ideas how to get these serial ports working?
Thanks,
Alfred
