Package: setserial Version: 2.17-45.2 Severity: important I have a serial device which only operates at 4800 bps. When I try to select this speed on the serial port, I get an invalid argument error:
$ sudo setserial /dev/ttyS0 baud_base 4800 Cannot set serial info: Invalid argument $ sudo setserial -a /dev/ttyS0 /dev/ttyS0, Line 0, UART: 16550A, Port: 0x03f8, IRQ: 4 Baud_base: 115200, close_delay: 50, divisor: 0 closing_wait: 3000 Flags: spd_normal skip_test Using stty to configure the port works: $ sudo stty -F /dev/ttyS0 4800 $ sudo stty -F /dev/ttyS0 speed 4800 and I am able to read data from the device. Moreover, setserial does not report the correct speed: sudo setserial -a /dev/ttyS0 /dev/ttyS0, Line 0, UART: 16550A, Port: 0x03f8, IRQ: 4 Baud_base: 115200, close_delay: 50, divisor: 0 closing_wait: 3000 Flags: spd_normal skip_test -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages setserial depends on: ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.32 Debian configuration management sy ii libc6 2.11.2-2 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib setserial recommends no packages. setserial suggests no packages. -- debconf information: setserial/autosave: true setserial/autosave-types: autosave once setserial/update-modules-failed: -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
