Hi All,
I am trying to get a NetMos 9835 multiport card having 2 serial and 1 parallel
port working with my box which is running FreeBSD 5.3-RELEASE. I tried
looking for info in previous posts but havent made any headway.
I have enabled sio2 and sio3 in /boot/device.hints but get the following in
dmesg.
-- For serial ports on motherboard
sio0 at port 0x3f8-0x3ff irq 4 flags 0x10 on isa0
sio0: type 16550A, console
sio1 at port 0x2f8-0x2ff irq 3 on isa0
sio1: type 16550A
-- For serial ports on NetMos 9835 card.
sio2: configured irq 5 not in bitmap of probed irqs 0
sio2: port may not be enabled
sio3: configured irq 9 not in bitmap of probed irqs 0
sio3: port may not be enabled
unknown: can't assign resources (port)
unknown: can't assign resources (port)
unknown: can't assign resources (port)
unknown: can't assign resources (port)
unknown: can't assign resources (port)
The section in my device.hints is -
hint.sio.2.at="isa"
#hint.sio.2.disabled="1"
hint.sio.2.port="0x3E8"
hint.sio.2.irq="5"
hint.sio.3.at="isa"
#hint.sio.3.disabled="1"
hint.sio.3.port="0x2E8"
hint.sio.3.irq="9"
Furthermore on digging the manpages (for puc) I found that this card is in the
supported list of HW cards and has the following entry in
/sys/dev/puc/pucdata.c
/* NetMos 2S1P PCI 16C650 : 2S, 1P */
{ "NetMos NM9835 Dual UART and 1284 Printer port",
{ 0x9710, 0x9835, 0, 0 },
{ 0x, 0x, 0, 0 },
{
{ PUC_PORT_TYPE_COM, 0x10, 0x00, COM_FREQ },
{ PUC_PORT_TYPE_COM, 0x14, 0x00, COM_FREQ },
{ PUC_PORT_TYPE_LPT, 0x18, 0x00, 0x00 },
},
},
Could someone help me out on this on what is to be done to get it to work ?
Thanks,
Rajarajan.
