Subject: 2.5.75, 8250 Oops
Date: Sat, 12 Jul 2003 02:57:38 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20030712005738.GA15060@finwe.eu.org> (raw)


Hi!

pppd was trying to open /dev/ttyS0  (persist & maxfail 0, etc.), but
I had not created alias for it....

Jul 12 01:29:19 finwe pppd[643]: Failed to open /dev/ttyS0: No such device

...so I manually loaded 8250 and:

 Serial: 8250/16550 driver $Revision: 1.90 $ IRQ sharing disabled
