 |
|
Hi,
I have
1. Enabled the two serial ports in BIOS; and
2. Compiled the kernel with Standard/generic (8250/16550) and compatible UARTs) serial support
but the Serial driver failed to load at start up. The command
returns nothing!
Help! |

Are you sure you compiled the support into the kernel and not modular?
If modular, have you done "modprobe serial"?

Thanks! nephros
I am pretty sure:
| Code: | | cat /usr/src/linux/.config | grep SERIAL |
resulted the following:
CONFIG_SERIAL=y
# CONFIG_SERIAL_CONSOLE is not set
# CONFIG_SERIAL_EXTENDED is not set
# CONFIG_SERIAL_NONSTANDARD is not set
# CONFIG_PCMCIA_SERIAL_CS is not set
# CONFIG_USB_SERIAL is not set
Help! |
