I just installed FC3 from Redhat 9. I have a quatech multiport card with 8 ports. Under redhat 9 there was no problem card was detect and I had ports 4 - 11. Under FC3 the card is detected but the order of the ports is ALL messed up. I am attempt to change the CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_NR_UARTS to 24. I am recompiling the kernel now. I chose 24 to support 3 - 8 port serial cards.
Is this a configuration bug or oversite or what is going on that my 8 port multiport card is not supported that worked fine under redhat 9.
THanks,
Jerry
I would suggest a configuration issue, not a bug. The kernel config for 2.6.9 - 681 shows:
CONFIG_SERIAL_8250=y ... CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_NR_UARTS=4 CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_EXTENDED=y ... CONFIG_SERIAL-8250_MULTIPORT=y
The default configuration between Red Hat 9 and Fedora Core 3 at the kernel level has changed. Your configuration is a bit different than what is normally used in other words.
