Re: LAVA PCIe serial card problem

[Tamas Szklenar <tszklenar@cfa.harvard.edu>]

Hi Greg,

Thanks for reply.
I attached no special driver to the other cards, only the kernels self 
"serial" driver.

I checked the 'include/linux/pci_ids.h' and the 
'drivers/serial/8250_pci.c' for the support and our new pcie serial 
cards are already in this.

Thanks,
Tamas
