I need to get another serial port or two on my linux box. I have one for
the mouse, another for my IR controller, and I would like at least one
more for an X10 ActiveHome controller. Ideally I would have a fourth for
a dial-in modem.
If I get a normal add-on two-port serial card for ~$30-$40, could I use
that in addition to the two ports I have now, or are they going to
conflict with IRQ's?
Real 4-port serial cards seem to be very expensive. Are there any that
are not? I don't need fast. Does each com port need an IRQ? That would
suck.
Does anyone have experience with a particular make, model, or vendor?
Thanks in advance.
