Recall that I said it was a new computer? It uses a SuperMicro MB that has two serial ports. SuperMicro, however, no longer make the panels that provide access to the port that you mount on the back. So, we have purchased these elsewhere. Seems these connectors are not pin compatible with the SuperMicro MBs (even though they claim to be so). After the back panel connectors were re-wired, the data arrives.
Wow. I would think that the serial port connection and the motherboard connection have been made for ages, why change the wiring now? It can only provoke problems, like yours.
To my knowledge, the wiring (+plug) between the motherboard and the DB9 port is not standard(ized). -- Per Jessen, Zürich (24.3°C) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
