Re: question about UART ST16C2552

Thanks for the correction.  I guess my comments really apply to 8241,

Kumar,

  There is no DUART on the MPC8240, if 8240 is what he literally

For 824x the detection code for the on-chip UART does NOT currently

working on getting accepted by the serial maintainers, that should

this.

However, its not clear to me from your email if you also have a
ST16C2552 in addition to the DUART on the 8240.
