Hi there, I recently upgraded two Debian machines and installed it afrsh on two others. They are all running 1.3.1
I found that when I installed it freshly the machines hang just after they load the serial module. Both the machines this is happening too are fairly standard. Machine 1, medusa, is a PCI BIOS machine with 3 network cards on 9, 10 and 11. The network cards are PCI, so I don't believe there is an I/O address conflict. I can't provide any more details on it at the moment cause it is at work. Machine 2, caliban, is a ISA/VLBUS machine with a network card (io=0x240-0x25f, irq=10), soundblaster (io=0x220, irq=7) and adaptec 1542C (io=0x330, irq=11). I don't have the soundblaster enabled under Linux yet. Both machines have two ports, and both are located at the standard locations (COM1/ttyS0: io=0x3f8, irq=4 and COM2:ttyS1: io=0x2f8 irq=3). Both machine hang whenever the serial module is loaded into the kernel. Are there some parameters I can pass to the serial module to stop it from attempting to determine what is in my machine, but to just accept what I ttell it? Has anyone else had similiar problems?
