| |
Hello all,
I've just installed a multiport serial card released by an outfit called Syba. This is an 8 port serial-only card with an Octopus style breakout cable. The main chipset on it is an ITE IT8871F.
I've got two questions on this: Is there a driver I should try force loading on it (and if so, what options to use)? and is there any useful testing I can do to report back to the LKML on this card?
Thanks for your time, diagnostic output follows. -- Chris
The following comes up from an "lspci -vv"
