Hi,
On a Dell Serverl PowerEdge T100, I have installed Red Hat Enterprise
Linux 5.4, because I must create a FaxServer with 4 external analogue
modems 56k.
I have also installed a serial card Multi I/O, guaranteed by the
producer full compatible with the kernel 2.6.x
Following the instructions supplied by manifacturer, as superuser I
have in the terminal entered the command:
lspci -v and this is the output:
****** abstract *********
05:00.0 Serial controller: Oxford Semiconductor Ltd
OX16PCI954 (Quad 16950 UART) function 0 (Uart) (prog-if 06
[16950])
Subsystem: Oxford Semiconductor Ltd Unknown device 0000
Flags: medium devsel, IRQ 11
I/O ports at e880 [size=32]
Memory at dffec000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=4K]
I/O ports at e8a0 [size=32]
Memory at dffed000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=4K]
Capabilities: [40] Power Management version 1
05:00.1 Bridge: Oxford Semiconductor Ltd OX16PCI954 (Quad
16950 UART) function 1 (8bit bus)
Subsystem: Oxford Semiconductor Ltd Unknown device 0000
Flags: medium devsel, IRQ 10
I/O ports at e8c0 [size=32]
Memory at dffee000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=4K]
I/O ports at e8e0 [size=32]
Memory at dffef000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=4K]
Capabilities: [40] Power Management version 1
****** continue ********
I assume, therefore, that the card is properly detected; but I do not
found the file /proc/tty/driver/serial, that according with the
supplied instructions of manifacturer would have an output like this:
more /proc/tty/driver/serial
serinfo:1.0 driver revision:
****************************
4: uart: 16C950/954 port:0000C400 irq:9 tx:0 rx:0
5: uart: 16C950/954 port:0000C408 irq:9 tx:0 rx:0
6: uart: 16C950/954 port:0000C410 irq:9 tx:0 rx:0
7: uart: 16C950/954 port:0000C418 irq:9 tx:0 rx:0
Listed as UART 4-7 are the serial ports and are assigned as ttyS4-
ttyS7.
I try to create the devices with the commands MAKEDEV or mknod and
then I use the command setserial; for setserial this is the output
(the ttyS4 is in the dev directory)
/dev/ttyS4: No such device or address
If I reboot this device is deleted.
Can anyone help me ?
Thank in advance
