|
- This selects whether you want to include the driver for the standard
|

- serial ports. The standard answer is Y. People who might say N
|
|
|
|
- here are those that are setting up dedicated Ethernet WWW/FTP
|
|
|
|
- servers, or users that have one of the various bus mice instead of a
|
|
|
|
- serial mouse and don't intend to use their machine's standard serial
|
|
|
|
- port for anything. (Note that the Cyclades and Stallion multi
|
|
|
|
- serial port drivers do not need this driver built in for them to
|
|
|
|
- work.)
|
|

|
|
|
|
- To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
|
|
|
|
- module will be called 8250.
|
|
|
|
- [WARNING: Do not compile this driver as a module if you are using
|
|
|
|
- non-standard serial ports, since the configuration information will
|
|
|
|
- be lost when the driver is unloaded. This limitation may be lifted
|
|
|
|
- in the future.]

|

|

|
|
|
- BTW1: If you have a mouseman serial mouse which is not recognized by
|
|
|
|
- the X window system, try running gpm first.
|
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
|
- BTW2: If you intend to use a software modem (also called Winmodem)
|
|
|
|
- under Linux, forget it. These modems are crippled and require
|
|
|
|
- proprietary drivers which are only available under Windows.
|
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
|
- Most people will say Y or M here, so that they can use serial mice,
|
|
|
|
- modems and similar devices connecting to the standard serial ports.

|
|
|
|
- If you say Y here, it will be possible to use a serial port as the

|
- system console (the system console is the device which receives all
|
|
|
|
- kernel messages and warnings and which allows logins in single user
|
|
|
|
- mode). This could be useful if some terminal or printer is connected
|
|
|
|
- to that serial port.
|
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
|
- Even if you say Y here, the currently visible virtual console
|
|
|
|
- (/dev/tty0) will still be used as the system console by default, but
|
|
|
|
- you can alter that using a kernel command line option such as
|
|
|
|
- "console=ttyS1". (Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of
|
|
|
|
- your boot loader (grub or lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options
|
|
|
|
- to the kernel at boot time.)
|
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
|
- If you don't have a VGA card installed and you say Y here, the
|
|
|
|
- kernel will automatically use the first serial line, /dev/ttyS0, as
|
|
|
|
- system console.
|
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
|
- You can set that using a kernel command line option such as
|
|
|
|
- "console=uart8250,io,0x3f8,9600n8"
|
|
|
|
- "console=uart8250,mmio,0xff5e0000,115200n8".
|
|
|

- and it will switch to normal serial console when the corresponding
|
|
|
|
- port is ready.

- "earlycon=uart8250,io,0x3f8,9600n8"
|

- "earlycon=uart8250,mmio,0xff5e0000,115200n8".
