I'm going to have a look at the table you mentioned. Yes, I know that usually one should make the selection from application, in my case I'm trying to uniform two different hardware maintaining the configuration for applications (running on both). The hws have a different combination of kind serials and I would like to present the same ttyS* to applications. I need to have different kernel configuration so I thought I could uniform things there....I'm going to evaluate the hardness p 2009/1/29 Alan Cox : > On Thu, 29 Jan 2009 12:02:49 +0100 > Pazzo Da Legare wrote: > >> Dear ML, >> >> how can I instruct the kernel (if possible) to map a certain serial >> port to a specific device ttySx? > > The kernel mapping defaults are from a table so you could recompile > the kernel.
