We have SuSE Linux Enterprise 10 SP3 that we are trying to use Edgeport/416 on with a kernel of 2.6.16.60-0.69.1-smp. I do not want to change my kernel. I am open to building modules from source but the instructions of searching Linux USB lists for io\_ti is a bit ‘light’ on help. Does anyone have any pointers on this? When I modprobe io\_ti I get: rivers/usb/serial/usb-serial.c: USB Serial support registered for Edgeport 2 port adapter drivers/usb/serial/usb-serial.c: USB Serial support registered for Edgeport 4 port adapter drivers/usb/serial/usb-serial.c: USB Serial support registered for Edgeport 8 port adapter drivers/usb/serial/usb-serial.c: USB Serial support registered for EPiC device usbcore: registered new driver io\_edgeport drivers/usb/serial/io\_edgeport.c: Edgeport USB Serial Driver v2.7 lsusb: Module Size Used by io\_edgeport 92680 0 io\_ti 52364 0 usbserial 32488 2 io\_edgeport,io\_ti ipmi\_devintf 11912 2 ipmi\_si 36688 1 ipmi\_msghandler 32320 2 ipmi\_devintf,ipmi\_si bonding 82784 0 dock 13064 0 button 10640 0 battery 13572 0 ac 8964 0 loop 19848 0 usbhid 45408 0 dm\_mod 61104 17 hw\_random 9496 0 ehci\_hcd 34184 0 usbcore 116996 6 io\_edgeport,io\_ti,usbserial,usbhid,ehci\_hcd i2c\_i801 12300 0 i2c\_core 23808 1 i2c\_i801 e1000e 129072 0 ext3 127880 8 jbd 63520 1 ext3 linear 9600 0 raid5 27520 0 xor 18312 1 raid5 raid0 11648 0 sg 36780 0 ahci 30472 4 libata 119452 1 ahci raid1 24704 2 edd 12356 0 fan 8580 0 thermal 17544 0 processor 33900 1 thermal mptsas 50696 0 mptscsih 36992 1 mptsas mptbase 82276 2 mptsas,mptscsih scsi\_transport\_sas 29952 1 mptsas piix 13828 0 [permanent] sd\_mod 23680 6 scsi\_mod 135436 7 sg,ahci,libata,mptsas,mptscsih,scsi\_transport\_sas,sd\_mod ide\_disk 18944 0 ide\_core 124236 2 piix,ide\_disk ---

Correction, it’s up now. Ugh. Let me be the first to say that not having native support for SLES seems a bit backwards. Seems like RHEL and SLES should be standard game for hardware manufacturers. ---

I just rebuilt the box from the ground up and redid the steps and I get the same error as above.
