Hi, I got some strange problems while trying to setup a EXSYS EX44092 PCIe to RS232 adapter card.
What I did: Start minicom, setup the serial parameters (115200 8N1) as described in the manual for the embedded system I want to connect to and reset the embedded board. Minicom prints a sequence of "."'s on the screen - thats it. I know that this embedded board is working, though. Next -- while minicom was running -- I used setserial to get the current settings of the serial interface. The baudrate was spd_normal despite the fact I had instructed minicom to set it to spd_vhi (115200 baud). Since setserial does not say anything about 8N1/7N2/... parities I couldnt check this. At last I straced minicom but I didn't found anything suspicious... EXSYS claims, that this card would work under Linux (supported by drivers which are already part of the kernel sources... What did I wrong here? Why does this setup now work? Thank you very much for any help in advance! Best regards mcc
