    CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_MANY_PORTS is not set

    I used to use redhat 9 and quatech 8 port serial cards.

    I am trying to get FC3 to run with the serial cards.

    I looks like the kernel has CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_MANY_PORTS set to no.

    Is this overlooked? Why is it disabled? What steps should be take to correctly
    enable it based on the current kernels configuration. If I have to recompile the
    kernel I dont want to have to select every option. I just want to take the present
    kernels config and add multiport serial back in.

    Thanks,

    Jerry

    i have the same problem but in FC6.
    But there is hope. Quatech puts out
    drivers for their cards, you can download
    them from their site in tar format. Once
    you untar them you will find a README file
    that walks you through how to get the card
    running on your computer. Its a kinda of a
    pain in the butt it works.
