Enabling Altera Avalon UART serial device driver

Started by S December 12, 2007
Hi all,

I'm trying to configure eCos and I have enabled the Hardware Serial
Device Driver option. However the Altera Avalon UART serial device
driver is grayed out. It means that the driver for this UART serial
device is disabled, doesn't it? Any suggestions on how to enable this?
Thanks in advance.

You'll have much better luck asking this question on the eCos mailing list. http://ecos.sourceware.org/intouch.html http://dir.gmane.org/gmane.os.ecos.general You'll also have to provide more information (e.g. what target you're using). -- Grant Edwards grante Yow!

Hi Grant,

Thank you for the link. I'm sure they'll be useful for me in the near
future. I've figured out how to enable it. I had to use the full
featured SOPC ptf file.
