15 | Misc. notes for RISCom/8 serial driver, in no particular order :) |
16 | |
17 | 1) This driver can support up to 4 boards at time. |
18 | Use string "riscom8=0xXXX,0xXXX,0xXXX,0xXXX" at LILO prompt, for |
19 | setting I/O base addresses for boards. If you compile driver |
20 | as module use modprobe options "iobase=0xXXX iobase1=0xXXX iobase2=..." |
21 | |
22 | 2) The driver partially supports famous 'setserial' program, you can use almost |
23 | any of its options, excluding port & irq settings. |
24 | |
25 | 3) There are some misc. defines at the beginning of riscom8.c, please read the |
26 | comments and try to change some of them in case of problems. |
27 | |
28 | 4) I consider the current state of the driver as BETA. |
29 | |
30 | 5) SDL Communications WWW page is http://www.sdlcomm.com. |
31 | |
32 | 6) You can use the MAKEDEV program to create RISCom/8 /dev/ttyL* entries. |
33 | |
34 | 7) Minor numbers for first board are 0-7, for second 8-15, etc. |
