Hi,
I put ISA card with UART chipset... but It didn't detected by linux
kernel...

When I run 'cat /proc/isapnp' , it don't have anyting about ISA card
with UART.

and when I run "dmesg | grep isapnp" it says "isapnp: No Plug & Plug
card found"


I think linux kernel can able to detected ISA card at least even
though it doesn't work...
( I installed Redhat 7.3 )

to detected it, what can I do?




Thanks..

Did you expect the ISA card to be PnP? Maybe it should be configured with
jumpers instead?

I did like that... I short and open jumper when I reboot linux box...
but it didn't detected ISA card...

( it works well on Windows... but linux )

my ISA card is moxa C104H with 16C550 UART chip...


I have another ISA serial card ... it don't have any jumpers...
Is there another tool or command to detect ISA card?


Thanks .

3.1, 95 or 98?

I haven't seen an ISA serial card with no jumpers. Maybe it is preset
to appear as serial port 0 and/or 1. Does the motherboard have built-in
serial ports, and if so are they disabled in the BIOS? How old is this
motherboard that you would install a dinosaur like RH 7.3? Does it have
PCI slots or only ISA?

So you have some jumpers and you know how to set them? Then use those
jumers to select an unused address and an unused irq. I also suppose that
you can see what kind of uart the card has?

If you set your jumpers to address 0x3F8 and irq 4 (known as COM1: in DOS)
you can use setserial with a command something like this to make the port
useful:

setserial /dev/ttyS0 uart 16450 port 0x3F8 irq 4

If you choose another address or irq or want to assign the port to
something else than ttyS0 adjust the row above. For more info see:

man setserial

And of course, the Serial-HOWTO

Also make sure that you have a kernel with support for serial ports
compiled in or the right module loaded.

As your kernel does not detect your port it is probably not configured as
above. A kernel with configured with serial port support should find at
least the first two standard COM1: and COM2: at

/dev/ttyS0 uart 16450 port 0x3F8 irq 4
/dev/ttyS1 uart 16450 port 0x2F8 irq 3
