My system has: 2 serial 1 parallel 1 floppy 1 gameport 1 joystick 2 PS/2 2 VGA 1 HPET 1 RTC
In /sys/bus/platform/devices I see this: floppy.0 i8042 serial8250 shouldn't there be entries for all of the legacy devices?
In /dev fd0 fd/0 fd/1 fd/2 fd/3 floppy ttyS0 ttyS1 ttyS2 ttyS3 parport0 parport1 parport2 parport3 lp0 lp1 lp2 lp3 hpet not sure what serio0/.1 appear as
I don't have joystick/game modules loaded. Lot's of extra device nodes We need to start making VGA devices
Plus I have 64 tty devices. Couldn't the tty devices be created dynamically as they are consumed? Same for the loop and ram devices?
Because /sys isn't right the right devices don't show up in HAL.
