Subject: status of pcmcia serial in 2.5.x ??


Hey,

I'm having some trouble getting pcmcia serial support working with 2.5.42.
Firstly, it seems serial_cs.o is no longer present, except in the
documentation. I'm assuming that what I now need is 8250_cs.o

When I `modprobe 8250_cs`, nothing shows up in dmesg
If i then remove and insert the card, I get

---
devfs_register(tts/1): could not append to parent, err: -17
tts/%d1 at I/O 0x2f8 ( irq = 5 ) is a 16550A
Trying to free nonexistent resource <000002f8-000002ff>
---

and I still can't access the serial port.

.config is attatched

can anyone give some clues ?

thanks,

/ Brett Pemberton
