Hi, One Q: How does MDK7 set the serial ports? In /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit it says: # Initialize the serial ports. if [ -f /etc/rc.d/rc.serial ]; then . /etc/rc.d/rc.serial fi But there is no /etc/rc.d/rc.serial so one may guess that no serial port is set. The mouse (serial) is working though and with 'cat /proc/interrupts' I get a normal line for serial: 4: 147276 XT-PIC serial At boottime both serial ports are acknowledged as ttyS0 and ttyS1. 'setserial -G ttyS1' gives out the normal values for port, uart, irq(3). Only irq3 is not listed in /proc/interrupts. I want to d'l the pictures from my Olympus digital camera using camediaplay (from the MDK7.0 CD 3). I have connected the camera to ttyS1 (as it works in that other OS). # camediaplay /dev/ttyS1 inappropriate device specified, or device permission error It can't be permission error because I do this as root. # ls -l /dev/ttyS1 crw------- 1 root tty 4, 65 May 5 1998 /dev/ttyS1 Any idea? This is the very last reason to have Win98 on my box and I'm eager to eliminate that one too. wobo -- GPG-Fingerprint: FE5A 0891 7027 8D1B 4E3F 73C1 AD9B D732 A698 82EE For Public Key mailto [EMAIL PROTECTED] with Subject: GPG-Request ------------------------------------------------------------------- ISDN4LINUX-FAQ -- Deutsch: http://www.wolf-b.de/i4l/i4lfaq-de.html
