SerialMouse fails to start
| Reported by: | Sprow (202) | Severity: | Normal |
| Part: | RISC OS: Module | Release: | |
| Milestone: | Status | Open |
Details by Sprow (202):
On platforms using DualSerial exclusively SerialMouse doesn’t work because at the time SerialMouse starts the callback that DualSerial uses to multiply instantiate itself hasn’t happened yet, so OS_SerialOp 10 fails and the default “Devices:$.Serial” is used.
On platforms with SerialDeviceDriver, Devices:$.Serial exists, so all is well.
Looking at the components files, currently this only affects OMAP3, since all the other ROMs either have SerialDeviceDriver in there too, or don’t include SerialMouse.
Presumably it needs to listen out for a service call, either for the ‘Serial’ module starting or DeviceFS device creation maybe?
