Re: LAVA PCIe serial card problem

Hi Greg,

Thanks for reply.
I attached no special driver to the other cards, only the kernels self 
"serial" driver.

I checked the 'include/linux/pci_ids.h' and the 
'drivers/serial/8250_pci.c' for the support and our new pcie serial 
cards are already in this.

Thanks,
Tamas

Hi,

We bought two PCIe serial cards from LAVA, one dual and one quad port card.

My problem is that the devices are visible in lspci, but no module
is loaded to the cards. I have other PCI card from this manufacturer
and they are working well and the necessary module is loaded fine.

Our linux is using the 2.6.35.7 kernel version.

Could you help me to fix these card?

I attached the output of the dmesg and the lspci to my mail.
What driver attached to the other cards that work properly for you?
Have you tried adding the device id for your new card to the "new_ids"
file for this driver and seeing if that worked properly or not?

thanks,
