[comp.unix.questions] SERIAL DEVICE DRIVER

ins_aaga@jhunix.UUCP (Andreas Greg Andreou) (12/10/86)

I am posting this for a friend who has some problem interfacing
a peripheeral device to a unix system through the serial port.
The computer is a pdp11/34 and runs bsd2.9 unix.
The serial card is a KL/DL11-E which has full modem control including
CTS (Clear To Send). 

I would appreciate any information in the form of either a device
driver or any usefull hints of things to check so that the serial
card will do the handshaking properly.

Please send your response through e-mail to:

ins_aaga@jhunix   : UUCP
cad@hopkins-eecs-bravo.arpa	: ARPA

Thanks in advance

Does anyone know where I can get source for the serial io device
drivers that come with Sco Unix 3.2. I need to add another serial
port (three in total) but the supplied device driver only supports 2.

Any information on this would be very appreciated. Thank you.

( I can't belive that DOS supports three serial ports without any
problem, providing you get a serial card that lets you use IRQ 2 or
IRQ 5, but UNIX can't!)
