RE: Problem to use a Oxford semiconductor Intelligent DUAL Channe

[Ed Vance]

Hi Alexis,

The 1.8432 MHz frequency is the "standard" frequency for PC UARTs. That's a
good thing. The "autoconfig failed" message is not a good thing. 

Since you corrected the #define for the 16PCI952 UART, the 5.0.5 driver
should be matching your card with the following entry at serial.c:4341:

        {       PCI_VENDOR_ID_OXSEMI, PCI_DEVICE_ID_OXSEMI_16PCI952,
                PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID,
                SPCI_FL_BASE0 , 2, 115200 }, 

Which looks correct. 

I just tried a quick test with an unmodified 5.0.5c (later) driver with my
954 chip and the autoconfig succeeds and it sets the proper divisor (12). 

I will setup a 5.0.5 serial driver and see what happens with my 954 chip. 

What vendor and model is your serial card with the 952 UART on it?

Please send me the output of the following two commands:

	setserial -a /dev/ttyS4
	stty -a < /dev/ttyS4

Please time the following command. It should take 53 seconds at 9600 bps:

	dd ibs=512 count=100 < /dev/zero | cat > /dev/ttyS4

Thanks for the additional info.
Ed Vance

Hi Ed Vance,

I've got some news (but not solution yet)

To answer your question the card's oscillator rate seems to be at 1.8432
MHz

Next I download the latest version of serial on the sourceforg site and
make the next modification on the sources :
	#define PCI_DEVICE_ID_OXSEMI_16PCI952 0x950A
	 	changing  to
	#define PCI_DEVICE_ID_OXSEMI_16PCI952 0x9521
and rebuilt the kernel (Linux version 2.2.20 (root@tech001) (gcc version
2.96 20000731 (Mandrake Linux 8.1 2.96-0.62mdk)) #9 Thu Feb 21 09:13:45
CET 2002)

when I insert the new module serial.o the kernel returns in the
/var/log/message
	Feb 26 16:38:09 fw kernel: Serial driver version 5.05
(2000-09-14) with MANY_PORTS MULTIPORT SHARE_IRQ 	SERIAL_PCI
enabled
	Feb 26 16:38:09 fw kernel: ttyS00 at 0x03f8 (irq = 4) is a
16550A
	Feb 26 16:38:09 fw kernel: ttyS01 at 0x02f8 (irq = 3) is a
16550A
	Feb 26 16:38:09 fw kernel: ttyS04 at port 0xfc78 (irq = 10) is a
16C950/954
	Feb 26 16:38:09 fw kernel: register_serial(): autoconfig failed

yeh it's detect my card with the good irq and port, but when I plug a
modem, ligths are blinking but the modem doesn't work at all.

I try other thing like setserial set_multiport, but I don't know what to
put for the option "port_monitor", "port1", "mask1" and "match1"

Have U any new idea ?

thanks

Channe l UA RT (OX16PCI952)

Hi Alexis,

There is no matching entry for this board in the serial driver's
pci_boards
table. The 9521 device code is a new one. The driver is looking for 950A
for
16PCI952 UART.

Since you are getting data output, I suspect your card's oscillator does
not
match the driver's default. What is the highest supported baud rate that
this card? (the rate you get when UART divisor reg is = 1) Default is
115200
bps. If your card's oscillator rate is not 1.8432 MHz, then the default
baud
rate calculation will be wrong. 

If you can find out the maximum baud rate, try adjusting the it for the
port
with setserial's baud_base parameter. Two common base baud rates for 95X
based cards are 921600 and 3125000. 

If you cannot be sure what the card's baud rate clock base is, then
calculate the actual data rate by cat'ing a large file out the port and
timing it. Calculate the bytes per second and multiply by the number of
bit-times for your async config (usually 10, 1 start, 8 data, 1 stop).
This
will tell you for sure if the base_baud value needs to be adjusted.

let me know what happens.

Good luck,
Ed Vance

Hello, I hope U can help me...

here is my configuration :

I have a Intel motherboard AL440LX, with a PII 400 + a OX16PCI952.
My system is a RedHat 7.1 seawolf (and I also try on a Mandrake 8.1)

I also make a :	setserial /dev/ttyS2 port 0xfc78 irq 10 that returns 

	/dev/ttyS2, UART: 16950/954, Port: 0xfc78, IRQ: 10
witch seems to be good

but when I connect a modem (UsRobotics 56k FaxModem ext)on the Serial
port and run the commande "wvdialconf", 
I can seen the modem light blinking (Rd, Sd) but not detect it
here is the result of the wvdialconf : 

	ttyS2<*1>: ATQ0 V1 E1 -- ATQ0 V1 E1
