Hello, I recently got an HP 8000 laptop with any 9-pin serial ports. I got a Entrega USB-to-serail cable.
lsusb sees the device: Bus 003 Device 002: ID 046d:c01b Logitech, Inc. MX310 Optical Mouse Bus 003 Device 001: ID 0000:0000 Bus 002 Device 003: ID 1645:8003 Entrega [hex] Bus 002 Device 001: ID 0000:0000 Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000 When I compile the Entrega usb driver into the kernel is shows up in dmesg: drivers/usb/serial/usb-serial.c: USB Serial support registered for Xircom / Entrega PGS - (prerenumeration) and I can go to /dev/bus/usb/002/ and see with ls: 001 003 But when I go to minicom and go to set the serial port config, I do not know how to designate the port: With an ordinary (16550) serial port it would be something like: /dev/ttyS1 or /dev/ttyS0 What would it be with this Entrega device? I also tried with the driver configured as a loadable model, but with no success..... Any ideas? James -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
