Hi,
Here's me with my dunce hat yet again...
I wanted to add serial ports to a Fire v240 (so that I can connect the
Fire 280R's serial console cable to it). So I went to the nearest shop
and bought a PCI card with a couple of RS-232 ports. It is identified by
lspci as:
0001:00:02.0 Serial controller: Timedia Technology Co Ltd PCI2S550 (Dual 16550 UART) (rev 01)
But then I noticed that no kernel module detected this, and that
SERIAL_8250 depends on (BROKEN || !SPARC). Googling didn't help much,
most users installed this in PCs and it seems everything worked for them
(apart from an occasional setserial(8)-related complaint).
Is this then completely unsupported, supported by a different part of
the kernel (sunsu, sunsab?), or?
