I'm trying to get an out of tree driver brought up to date for the Avocent ESP-16 MI Serial Hubs (serial over ethernet): http://www.connectivity.avocent.com/products/network-based/esp_16.asp Thankfully the have a GPL driver but it was last updated against 2.6.23: http://www.connectivity.avocent.com/drivers/esp_serial_hubs/dd64e069.asp However I've never worked on any tty drivers so its a bit black magic at this point. I was hoping that an example would at least get me able to bring the driver up to a point that we can get it into the staging tree. thanks - k -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
