Public bug reported: Running a up to date Jaunty server Install and using KVM to host virtual machines. One of the guests has the ttyS0 of the host passed through to it with a weather station connected to the host port:-
<serial type='dev'> <source path='/dev/ttyS0'/> <target port='1'/> </serial> The serial port is passed through and is correctly detected in the guest. However the weather station software cannot communicate with the weather station device. Further more after about 15-20 minutes the guest becomes unresponsive and I cannot even view the console through virt- manager or shut it down with virsh. I am then forced to kill it with a "kill -9". I believe that a bug has already been reported and a patch supplied in January of this year, as it seems to describe my symptoms exactly:- http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.emulators.kvm.devel/27809 ** Affects: kvm (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- ttyS0 pass through in guest running in KVM doesn't work and eventually hangs https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/370270 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
