Hardware :: PCI To Serial Quad 8-port Controller Card Chipset - ITE 8871 ?
Oct 14, 2010
I've just installed a multiport serial card. This is an 8 port serial-only card. The main chipset on it is an ITE IT8871F.
I've got questions : Is there a driver I should try force loading on it (and if so, what options to use)?

I recently purchased a new PCI to Serial card to get 2 serial ports so I can connect my external serial modem and operate hylafax. The machine that I placed this card is a Debian 2.6.26-19lenny2 which is operating just fine. Further more the motherboard is ASUS P5QL-CM. I have managed to place the pci card on an available slot and powered on. I then tried to follow the instructions that the supplier of the card had regarding installation of drivers and this is what I get:
First they asked to untar the contents and make clean. the result is :
debiansrv:/temp/golden# make clean
cd driver;
make clean
make[1]: Entering directory `/temp/golden/driver'
rm -f *~
rm -f *.o

I add one serical card which is extended to 4 serial ports to my host, but in centos 5.4, only 3 (In my machine, is ttyS1, ttyS2 and ttyS3,ttyS0 is another serial port) of my host can be used, and /dev/ttyS4 doesn't work.
$ sudo cat /dev/ttyS4
cat: /dev/ttyS4: No such device or address
The card info is as follows:
Host> lspci -vvv
03:01.0 Serial controller: Oxford Semiconductor Ltd OX16PCI954 (Quad 16950 UART) function 0 (Uart) (prog-if 06 [16950])
Subsystem: AFAVLAB Technology Inc Unknown device 2150

I am trying to get two way serial communications going between a Windows XP system and a Linux system (RHEL 5).I have /sbin/agetty -L 9600 ttyS0
in /etc/inittab. I am using a generic USB to serial adaptor on Windows (Unitek) and a null modem cable. I have putty configured for 9600 baud, 8 bits, no parity, one stop bit, no flow control.I get the login prompt from agetty in the putty window but input does not work; I see weird characters in the putty screen. I can echo output into the device from windows and see it, but
cat < /dev/ttyS0. just prints out weird characters from what I type.

We have a new machine with RedHat enterprise 5 on it. I need to connect a serial cable to the serial port and talk to another system (old alpha system) instead of using a VT connected to the alpha.Does RedHat come with anything like Keaterm/hyperterm/etc etc?

On my CentOS 5.2 install I've installed a dual-port serial card based on the NetMOS 9835 chipset. I've followed the serial instructions, but everything they tell me to do is already done - see setserial outputs below. I've compared these values to the lspci output (below, NetMos card is at the bottom of the output) for the card and it appears right. Problem being, I can't use the serial ports. Oh and I did use search, and looked at every 9835-related article before posting this :)

I'm building a new router for my home. I have a pci-x motherboard with two network connections on the motherboard, SUSE 11. I intended to use one network connection for the external zone and the other for the Internal zone, (the internal port going to a four port switch). Recently, a friend gave me an "Intel PRO 1000 MT PCI-X Quad-Port Adapter C32199" which will plug into my motherboard, presumably giving me a total of 6 (4+2) network connections. 1) Can it be as simple as setting one network connection to "external zone" and the other five to "Internal zone", and plug my other computers into the internal zone connectors, eliminating the need for a switch?
2) There seem to be a lot of these QUAD server adapters on Ebay; how where they originally used?
3) Can I dedicate one internal net-port for some exclusive traffic (e.g. all mail, going to network connector 3, connected to the mail server)? IPtable rules?

I'm trying to set rxtxSerial to work so a Java app has access to a serial port (via SiLabs CP210x driver, port /dev/ttyUSB0). When I use update-alternatives --config java, there are 3 alternatives which provide `java'. I have tried openJDK and Sun. Both fail but with completely different messages.

Is it possible that CentOS 5.5 does currently not support Oxford's OXPCIe952-F serial controller chip? We've added one of those PCIe x1 cards to one of our servers since we need additional serial interfaces but it doesn't seem to work. Instead of three serial ports (the server comes with one already, the controller adds two more) we still only have ttyS0:
Quote:
root/linux2$ zgrep ttyS /var/log/*
/var/log/dmesg:serial8250: ttyS0 at I/O 0x3f8 (irq = 4) is a 16550A
/var/log/dmesg:00:08: ttyS0 at I/O 0x3f8 (irq = 4) is a 16550A

I am writing some application in C, which will access a serial port device (RS232). My application is working good. But if any other application is already opened the port, I couldn't able to identify that. In windows VB program, while accessing comport through mscomm control, i am receiving an error as "Port Already Opened". But in Linux environment, through C program how can i get that? I am accessing comport 1 as follows
fd = open("/dev/ttyS0", O_RDWR | O_NOCTTY | O_SYNC);

I am attempting to load CentOS 5 on an Acer 6900 desktop and I'm not even getting out of the starting gate. I am familiar with using linux but not the install procedure which is why I am beginning to dive into this. However, when I bring the system up off the Linux boot disk and go to install it's not even giving me the option of the controller so I can begin installing the os from the dvd-rom. This is what acer lists as the controller for the 6900: ich8 serial ata storage controller 2820 linux driver. I cannot find this driver for linux anywhere.

I have two usb2serial adapters connected to my PC with a null modem (I am doing some testing to learn serial comm for a particular application). I am writing to /dev/ttyUSB0 a trying to read /dev/ttyUSB1. I have used screen (screen /dev/ttyUSB1 115200) and am able to see the characters being written. I am also able to read and write with Python with the following code
Code: import serial,time,sys
ser1 = serial.Serial('/dev/ttyUSB0',baudrate=115200)
ser2 = serial.Serial('/dev/ttyUSB1',timeout=2,baudrate=115200)
ser1.open()
ser2.open()

Nothing appears ont the screen and the VT102 has an offline status. The OS is Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 64bits.Is somebody have examples to debug the serial port ?

I'm not a developer or programmer just a user.I'm trying to install a packet radio system using Linux. The TNC is a Kantronics KPC3.The issue I'm having is the communications programs I have tried (minicom and cutecom) do not talk to the TNC. I'm using a computer that has a serial port and it is enabled in the BIOS.I have added myself to the uucp group in an effort resolve this issue.

I communication with different subsystems using serial port. In some subsystems after running for a while, I start getting invalid data inspite of system sending correct data. For dealing with this situation I used to
reset serial ports by closing and reopening serial port, it was doing the trick but somehow when I have implemented this in my new application, this also doesn't work.
void CPort::
The ClosePort function invokes close system call.
some other way to reset serial port in Linux? I am using RHEL 4, C++ and Qt 4.2.1 for my application development. Also I have used multithreading to implement each subsystem in a separate thread. Its strange that if A,B,C are three threads, A & B run fine together but when C is introduced B starts receiving invalid data after sometime and never recovers even after resetting the port as mentioned above.

I'm using C serial in a program to open and use a serial port but the port won't open for one reason or another. The program successfully runs on a different computer and when using RealTerm: Serial Capture Program, I can connect through the serial port with the same settings as I'm attempting through my c code. Anyone have any idea why it might be failing? I know this is still pretty vague, so let me know if there's other things I can tell you that might help to finding a solution
