Ticket #401 (Open)Fri Feb 06 22:09:05 UTC 2015

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?

Changelog:

Hi, you should try starting DeviceFS device creation and then try the SerialMouse again. Are you using a Beagleboard?
