We are a small company FAST ComTec GmbH (www.fastcomtec.com) and produce multichannel analyzers with Windows software. I am the software developer and would like to get our software working also under Linux with the help of WINE. I was already successfull with our USB devices and most of our PCI cards, but with one of the PCI cards it does not work (in Debian v8, kernel 3.16.0). Our PCI cards have a AMCC controller S5933, we use the standard AMCC vendor id 0x10e8 and device id 0x8226, device class serial. Most of our cards use two I/O port ranges and an interrupt. I have written a linux driver for these cards and could get everything working, but the interface card for our MPA-3 multiparameter system uses only one I/O port range and an interrupt. This card is recognized by the "serial" driver in the kernel as a serial interface card and there is no way to load our own driver. My question is, could you remove in future kernel versions the support for this card in the kernel our make it possible to blacklist it in /etc/modprobe.d/fbdev-blacklist.conf like other drivers that are not directly included in the kernel?
