If your device is 8250/16550/etc compatible, you should be able to use the existing 8250.c serial driver. If your device is attached via PCI, look at 8250_pci.c for examples of how to claim it. I think if your device claims to be PCI_CLASS_COMMUNICATION_SERIAL, 8250_pci.c will claim it automatically with no code changes at all. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
