https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=395723 Summary: kernel: smsc_ircc2 kills serial ports Product: openSUSE 11.0 Version: RC 1 Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Kernel AssignedTo: kernel-maintainers@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: lnussel@novell.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- When loading smsc_ircc2 the normal serial ports do not work anymore. Ie serial console stops working, agetty on ttyS0 doesn't shop up on the other side. Since smsc_ircc2 gets loaded automatically via modalias even if no irda is configured it's all but obvious what causes those dead serial ports. smsc_ircc2 prints this in dmesg: smsc_superio_flat(): fir: 0x130, sir: 0x2f8, dma: 03, irq: 5, mode: 0x0e SMsC IrDA Controller found IrCC version 2.0, firport 0x130, sirport 0x2f8 dma=3, irq=5 No transceiver found. Defaulting to Fast pin select Access to ttyS0 then causes this in dmesg: ttyS0: LSR safety check engaged! -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
