[Bug 494217] New: YaST2 does not allow ttyUSB devices for modem config
http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=494217 User jlt1@centurytel.net added comment http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=494217#c1 Summary: YaST2 does not allow ttyUSB devices for modem config Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.0 Version: Final Platform: i686 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.0 Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: jlt1@centurytel.net QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Konqueror/3.5; Linux 2.6.25.5-1.1-pae) KHTML/3.5.9 (like Gecko) SUSE I'm running openSuSE 11.0 on a PC with a A7VBX-X motherboard, which has only one serial port, which is dedicated to my external 56Kbaud modem. I also have a Wacom Intuos serial tablet which I want to use with the Gimp, so I acquired a USB--tty adapter which provides two additional serial ports at /dev/ttyUSB0 and /dev/ttyUSB1; but Sax2 does not allow me to configure either of these ports for the tablet (see Bug 494216). So I tried connecting the modem to /dev/ttyUSB0 and the tablet to /dev/ttyS0; but I'm getting the same issue with YaST2 that I did with Sax2: /dev/ttyUSB0 and /dev/ttyUSB1 do not appear in the list of devices to be selected for use with the modem. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Plug the USB--tty adapter into a free USB port. dmesg shows usb 3-2: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 8 usb 3-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice ftdi_sio 3-2:1.0: FTDI USB Serial Device converter detected drivers/usb/serial/ftdi_sio.c: Detected FT2232C usb 3-2: FTDI USB Serial Device converter now attached to ttyUSB0 ftdi_sio 3-2:1.1: FTDI USB Serial Device converter detected drivers/usb/serial/ftdi_sio.c: Detected FT2232C usb 3-2: FTDI USB Serial Device converter now attached to ttyUSB1 usb 3-2: New USB device found, idVendor=0403, idProduct=6010 usb 3-2: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=0 usb 3-2: Product: CHAIRSIDE(tm) Machine Interface v1 usb 3-2: Manufacturer: FTDI 2. a. Attach a serial device to /dev/ttyUSB0. b. Look for activity on port /dev/ttyUSB0 (I used a program called sertest; see attached files). 3. a. run YaST2. b. Select "Network Devices" c. Select "Modem" d. Under "Modem Devices" tab, select "Edit" e. Open the "Modem device" pulldown Actual Results: Devices available from step 3.e. are /dev/modem /dev/ttyACM0 /dev/ttyACM1 /dev/ttyACM2 /dev/ttyACM3 /dev/ttyS0 /dev/ttyS1 /dev/ttyS2 /dev/ttyS3 Expected Results: Devices available from step 3.e. should be /dev/modem /dev/ttyS0 /dev/ttyUSB0 /dev/ttyUSB1 BTW, what are /dev/ttyACM* ?

Just to be sure: combobox is editable, so you can write /dev/ttyUSB0 if you want and it works, right?
No, sir. It appears to be so, but after clicking through Next -> Next -> Next -> Next -> Finish, the new value is not saved. (If I was able to just overtype with the desired value I would not have needed to open this bug report.) :-) Leslie -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
