SERIAL_CS(4)                                         SERIAL_CS(4)

NAME
       serial_cs - PCMCIA serial port driver

SYNOPSIS
       insmod    serial_cs.o    [pc_debug=n]   [irq_list=i,j,...]
       [do_sound=n]

DESCRIPTION
       Serial_cs is the  Card  Services  driver  for  all  PCMCIA
       serial  devices, including modem cards.  When serial_cs is
       bound to a serial or modem card, it will generally attempt
       to  allocate the first unused serial device for use by the
       card.  The device chosen will be recorded  in  the  kernel
       log  file,  and  will also be reported to cardmgr(8).  The
       major and  minor  numbers  and  device  name  reported  by
       serial_cs  will  match  the corresponding "dialout" device
       (/dev/cua#).  The new device can be  accessed  using  this
       device  file  or the corresponding /dev/ttyS# device.  The
       default serial card setup script  will  link  the  dialout
       device to /dev/modem.

PARAMETERS
       pc_debug=n
              Selects the PCMCIA debugging level.  This parameter
              is only available if the module  is  compiled  with
              debugging enabled.  A non-zero value enables debug-
              ging.

       irq_list=i,j,...
              Specifies the set of interrupts that may  be  allo-
              cated by this driver.

       do_sound=n
              A  flag  specifying  if  speaker  output  should be
              enabled.  The default is 1 (true).   Set  to  0  to
              disable speaker output.
