Kernelmodule Serial_cs Is Missing

[EdbO]

Hello,

To get my bluetoothcard working I need the kernelmodule serial_cs. When I do modprobe serial_cs I get an error that the module cannot be found.

Where can I get this module, or have I compile it by myself?

To rpurdie:

I installed the latest kernel for oz3.5.3, the one for 20050424 iirc. Later, I also installed the kernel-module-serial_cs... from the same directory.

Then, when inserting my socket bluetooth 2.5 rev.G card, I get the following error:

Can you please provide any hint about what to do now?

I fixed a bug in 8250. Upgrade this module as well.

[zmiq2]

Hi,

1) can you please specify in which feed the new serial_cs is located (i cannot find it anywhere), nor in rpurdie ipkg list

2) what do you mean by 'upgrade this module as well'? which one? My understanding is that the serial8250 code is inside the serial_cs module.

[lardman]

For the 8250 module you may have to ask hrw to add it to the upgrades feed.

I'm not sure where serial_cs is (I just had a quick - I'm on slow dialup - look).

My understanding is that the serial8250 code is inside the serial_cs module.

No, the _cs file is just glue which allows the particular driver for the card chipset to be used by the PCMCIA subsystem (as the chip is in a PCMCIA/CF card). I presume the driver you need is 8250.o

Hi, I'm still having trouble getting socket bluetooth 2.5 rev g card working. Googling around, I found the following patch to be applied, that could solve the problem

Would a caritative soul please recompile the module with this patch for testing ?

Thanks

Pavel,
 
 I had the same card and it would not work with 2.6 until I applied this
 patch. (posted to the mailing list about a month ago)
 
 Even then I couldn"t get the rev f to do audio stuff though.

Hi all, good news for socket bluetooth 2.5 rev g users: with the above patch the card works as expected.

XorA and Mickeyl have the code and will do the proper module upgrade stuff, so you can enjoy.

When I fine tune the rest of scripts (just tested that it works, manually entering all the commands) I'll post a how-to in oz website.

Thanks to XorA and Mickeyl for their help

[Mickeyl]

This is a prime example for a case where a motivated user not only spots a bug but also takes the burden to start investigating and then together with the developers comes to a solution.

Without zmiq2, this would probably have taken months to fix, since no core developer has that card and even if one had such a card most of us are buried under work which means such a thing has very low priority.

All it took him was researching, thinking, communicating - everyone can do that if he or she really wants. This is how open source software should work.

I installed the latest kernel for oz3.5.3, the one for 20050424 iirc. Later, I also installed the kernel-module-serial_cs... from the same directory.

Could someone please post the package name and feed for the serial_cs.o module?  I've been looking through all the feeds, but can't seem to find "kernel-module-serial_cs" or anything that resembles it.

[lardman]

Bloody dial-up!

I can't get to the oz.org web site, but I'd look in the machine feed for your device and also in the upgrades feed,

I've been looking through all the feeds, but can't seem to find "kernel-module-serial_cs" or anything that resembles it.

Thanks Greg, but all I see in there is kernel-module-serial-fd.  Is "kernel-module-serial_cs" what I should be looking for?  I saw this name in another thread. . .
