 Hi –
 
  
 
 I have an application that runs under Redhat 7.2 that expects to see a
 serial port at /dev/tty4 with characteristics 9600,N,1,1. Through my
 own ignorance or perhaps through failure of the PCI serial card
 (Dolphin 2-port PCI card) the application doesn’t appear to notice the
 serial port.  I know very little about linux and how to turn this back
 on or test to see of the port has failed.  Does anyone have a way (or
 can VNC to my computer) to see what’s going on?  Many thanks in
 advance.

Michael,

You need to make sure that a proper driver is loaded for the serial
port.
If you type
 cat /var/log/messages 
after booting then you should see all your configured serial ports.
You can see the devices under /proc/bus/pci
 cat /proc/bus/pci/devices 
gives you a list of PCI devices. The serial board should be there.
If you type
 lsmod
you get a list of all loaded kernel modules. The serial driver should be
there. If not, you should install one.

You can test the port with minicom.

Regards,
Jeroen.

 David,

 Sounds like a good thing entering it into Bugzilla, however, if
 there is not a priority within Red Hat to fix it, the bug will sit
 there and rot... Might be a good time to split the bugzilla between
 active devlopment and legacy, and move the bugs over as needed,
 where they can be triaged, and dealt with in accordance with the
 Fedora Legacy charter.

 Thoughts?

Tim,

(1)  Don't top post

(2)  It use to be separate; but, I'm a little fuzzy as to why it was
consolidated...  but, it is separate in a since.  You have to post it
in the Legacy section of Bugzilla.

(3)  Redhat is not responsible for fixing the BUGs.  It is the Fedora
Legacy support group which is.  Which comes right down to US in the
end.  Redhat manages and supports the group; but, it is the group of
volunteers that support the updates.
