8250.c faster baud rate for Socket CF Bluetooth Card

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

 



Hi,

I have a Socket Compact Flash Bluetooth Card Rev. G.   It requires
serial port with at least baud rate 230,400 to make it work.  There is a
patch file (attched) according to
http://www.adamis.de/linux/bt-socket.html that solves the problem.  Is
it possible such change merge into future 8250.c linux kernel release.

Thanks,
Chun
