Re: Problen setting modem port speed.
Hi,
I found the cause of this problem in the kernel file zs.c in
drivers/sbus/char in the function change_speed. The unsigned
short local variable port is used to hold the serial port address
and this variable is checked against 0. On my SS670, serial port
ttyS1 is at address 0xffee0000 which caused the problem. Changing
the port address test to use the value stored in info->port fixes the
problem.
Now that I think about it, my problem started when I moved the
modem from ttyS0 to ttyS1 so I could use a terminal on tty A to
view the diagnostics output.
