Bug#616720: linux-image-2.6-xen-amd64: Feature request -- Serial driver serial8250 as module




Hello Ben
 
Thank you for your quick reply!

OK. Has this been changed in Xen 4.0 and kernel 2.6.32? Before squeeze was released, I have been using c't server with xen 3 and kernel 2.6.18 and the driver serial8250 was compiled as module.
 
I would like to provide a DomU serial port access according to the xen-wiki http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/InstallationNotes. Before it worked stable. Do you have an idea what I could try? As far as I am informed, pvusb is currently not working in squeeze.
