what could be the problem?
My 1c has the serial port on a superio chip. I recognize this problem from other boards. I also have a 3c3 where I saw this before I fried the 5536 ATA driver.
Sorry didn't understand what you actually mean here... that I have fried my hardware?
Sorry! No not at all!
The serial port on alix1c is on the Winbond superio chip. The alix2 and 3 boards do not have this superio chip and their serial port is connected directly to the 5536 - and this is probably the reason that serial doesn't work anymore.
I don't understand - serial works fine for me on the 2c3. Getting serial to work was in fact the 'hardest' part of doing the 2c3 port based on the .1c code, because of the absense of the winbond superio chip. It required all of changing a few lines of code :)
Thanks, Ward.
