Yes. The linuxppc_2_5 kernel has all of the right pieces. I have since made some changes that allow this to be selected as a configuration option, and the patches are in the pipeline back to the FSM Labs trees. When using the SCC Console, the driver doesn't support SMC serial ports due to some configuration conflicts I haven't yet resolved. So far, I haven't seen hardware that uses an SCC console and SMC serial ports, which places fixing this rather low on my list. What board are you working on? I have a Linux port for the ADS8260..... -- Dan ** Sent via the linuxppc-embedded mail list. See http://lists.linuxppc.org/
