Greetings: Just received a complimentary dual PCI serial card as
pacification from the vendor because my onboard serial ports broke.
I suspect it cannot be used under Linux and I don't have Win9X/NT to
look at the supplied disk software..
Disabling the serial BIOS entry and booting I find that - cat
/proc/pci lists the two ports but says "unknown uart." I'm not
familiar enough to decipher but I do see some verbiage like, "Oxford
0X16c95x" family of uarts.. setserial reports zero adapters as does
msd or mft from Dos.. I'm lost...Could this be yet another
WinDevice?? Can there be a "simple" solution, other than using an ISP
serial card, now used temporarily - but I need that slot for
something else..
Any comments or suggestions? Appreciate! Happy 2K..
