Template: setserial/autosave
Type: boolean
Default: true
_Description: Do you want the automatic serial port configuration?
All releases of setserial since 2.15 use the file /etc/serial.conf to
configure the serial ports. You can edit it to your own likings, or use
the automatic serial port configuration, which is the recommended way of
doing it.
.
Attention PCMCIA users - pcmcia-cs has its own configuration for PC Card
serial-type devices, which is not compatible with setserial. In case of
problems, please read the /usr/share/doc/setserial/README.Debian.gz file.
Template: setserial/autosave-types
Type: select
_Choices: autosave once, manual, autosave always, kernel
Default: autosave once
_Description: Type of automatic serial port configuration to use?
Setserial contains the ability to save your current serial configurations,
but you have to decide the method which setserial is to use.
.
autosave once - this saves your serial configuration the first time you
select this option, using kernel information. From this point on this
information is never changed automatically again. If you want the
configuration to change you have to edit serial.conf by hand. This is the
default and is good in almost all cases.
.
manual - control serial.conf yourself right from the start. Good for
experts who like to get their hands dirty, but autosave-once is probably
still better.
.
autosave always - save the serial configuration on every system shutdown,
and reload the saved state when you reboot. Good if you change your serial
configuration a lot, but DANGEROUS as rebooting a system with "errors" can
result in the complete loss of your serial configuration!
.
kernel - blank the serial.conf file and use the kernel settings on bootup.
This may be useful for standard situations or where setserial has become
confused.
Template: setserial/rc-boot-file-renamed
Type: note
_Description: Please read documentation on old 0setserial entries
You have an old-style 0setserial entry. The configuration mechanism has
changed completely after setserial release 2.14.
.
Your old /etc/rc.boot/0setserial file was just renamed to
0setserial.pre-2.15.
.
Read /usr/share/doc/setserial/README.Debian.gz file for more information.
Template: setserial/rc-boot-file-removed
Type: note
_Description: New method of bootup initialization used
You have an old-style 0setserial entry. The configuration mechanism has
changed completely after setserial release 2.14.
.
Your old /etc/rc.boot/0setserial file was removed. The
/etc/init.d/setserial file is used instead.
Template: setserial/update-modules-failed
Type: note
_Description: update-modules failed!
WARNING: setserial tried to install the module management code to support
the serial.o module being loaded and unloaded dynamically by kerneld (or
its equivalent). However, update-modules failed to allow its installation.
.
There may be something non-standard about your module configuration. You
should try running /sbin/update-modules on your own.
