Hi,
I have rewritten the A2232 driver (big modifications to the C code
written by Zik Saleeba <zik@aurora.cc.monash.edu.au> and a 99% rewrite
of the 65C02 code).
I'm looking for one or two persons who would like to beta-test the new
driver. It is not finished yet, but I'm using one of the ports now
and is appears to work properly.
New features:
- freely distributable (I hope!)
- controls the RTS handshake signal (-> no data should ever get lost
when using hardware handshaking)
- better performance of the 65C02 code (-> higher baud rates should be
possible)
I plan to add support for accelerated A2232's as well (capable of
communicating at 38400 bps).
The driver is 1.0 compatible (I don't know about -current) and I have
tested it on A3000/25 with 10 megs of RAM.
If you're interested and able to compile your own kernel, please e-mail.
