RE: PPC Serial over Host USB

Hi,

Thanks for the reply.
Right now I am working kernel 3.5.
I want to connect USB to Serial device (FDTI FT232R base) and be able to use
/dev/ttyUSB. (I can mknod manualy). In fact I am going to connect hub, and I will need
up to 4 serial ports.

I used make menuconfig - and I marked all the required item, but how I intialize instance of 
USB serial port driver? I think it require some definition in the .dts file.

BTW, I am going to use complete kernel build (no dynamic module loading)

I hope I am more clear now

Thanks


Avner

How do you want to use it as a serial port?  In what manner?

What do you mean by this?

In what way?

What kernel version are you using?
