But activating COM2 at least will be required, I guess? It's active in the original BIOS (appears in /proc/ioports).
The Super-IO supports two generic UARTs. If there are level shifters connected or not, doesn't matter. UART is UART. Setup fails?
Dunno, it's set to off in Config.lb at the moment, I didn't try to activate it, but I'll do that later... I think we should change the svn code to enable it anyway. The hardware is there and (theoretically) usable so we should enable it.
Juergen, can you post 'lsmod' and 'ps auxw' in the original version of the BIOS/DoC software? Maybe also a dmesg (full boot log). My guess is that the card readers worked with their software, and as that's Linux-based maybe we just have to find the correct driver name?
No chance. There is no original environment present anymore. All five Igel's running here as X clients.
Attached some files I found in my filesystem. I looks like they are from the original system (but: I'm NOT sure!)

Yep, that looks like the original kernel, correct? You're using 2.6 AFAIK.

Yep, both activated. We should do the same.
Uwe.
