here are those that are setting up dedicated Ethernet WWW/FTP
servers, or users that have one of the various bus mice instead of a
serial mouse and don't intend to use their machine's standard serial
port for anything. (Note that the Cyclades and Stallion multi
serial port drivers do not need this driver built in for them to
work.)
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
module will be called 8250.
[WARNING: Do not compile this driver as a module if you are using
non-standard serial ports, since the configuration information will
be lost when the driver is unloaded. This limitation may be lifted
in the future.]
BTW1: If you have a mouseman serial mouse which is not recognized by
the X window system, try running gpm first.
BTW2: If you intend to use a software modem (also called Winmodem)
under Linux, forget it. These modems are crippled and require
proprietary drivers which are only available under Windows.
Most people will say Y or M here, so that they can use serial mice,
modems and similar devices connecting to the standard serial ports.

---help---
If you say Y here, it will be possible to use a serial port as the
system console (the system console is the device which receives all
kernel messages and warnings and which allows logins in single user
mode). This could be useful if some terminal or printer is connected
to that serial port.
Even if you say Y here, the currently visible virtual console
(/dev/tty0) will still be used as the system console by default, but
you can alter that using a kernel command line option such as
"console=ttyS1". (Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of
your boot loader (grub or lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options
to the kernel at boot time.)
If you don't have a VGA card installed and you say Y here, the
kernel will automatically use the first serial line, /dev/ttyS0, as
system console.
You can set that using a kernel command line option such as
"console=uart8250,io,0x3f8,9600n8"
"console=uart8250,mmio,0xff5e0000,115200n8".
and it will switch to normal serial console when the corresponding
port is ready.
"earlycon=uart8250,io,0x3f8,9600n8"
"earlycon=uart8250,mmio,0xff5e0000,115200n8".

Saying Y here will enable the hardware MUX serial driver for

The hardware MUX is not 8250/16550 compatible therefore the
/dev/ttyB0 device is shared between the Serial MUX and the PDC
software console. The following steps need to be completed to use
the Serial MUX:
1. create the device entry (mknod /dev/ttyB0 c 11 0)
2. Edit the /etc/inittab to start a getty listening on /dev/ttyB0
3. Add device ttyB0 to /etc/securetty (if you want to log on as

help
The pmac_zilog driver for the z85C30 chip on many powermacs
historically used the device numbers for /dev/ttySn. The
8250 serial port driver also uses these numbers, which means
the two drivers being unable to coexist; you could not use
both z85C30 and 8250 type ports at the same time.
If this option is not selected, the pmac_zilog driver will
use the device numbers allocated for /dev/ttyPZn. This allows
the pmac_zilog and 8250 drivers to co-exist, but may cause
existing userspace setups to break. Programs that need to
access the built-in serial ports on powermacs will need to
be reconfigured to use /dev/ttyPZn instead of /dev/ttySn.
If you enable this option, any z85c30 ports in the system will
be registered as ttyS0 onwards as in the past, and you will be
unable to use the 8250 module for PCMCIA or other 16C550-style
UARTs.
