  • cy driver

    From Volker Englisch@21:1/5 to All on Fri Aug 30 10:13:57 2024
    Does anyone know since what version of FreeBSD the cy driver is broken?
    Or, up to what version it is useable?

    I only know that it still exists in version 12.x and 13.x and
    disapperared completely in version 14.x.

    JFTR: So the last version with a working cy driver is 7.4.

    Thanks.

    I don't have that hardware, so cannot say anything about
    the last version of FreeBSD where it actually worked. This
    bug report suggests that it has been broken for a long time.

    Same here. My hardware isn't ancient enough to get version 7.4
    installed.

    As far as I read in the link you posted, the logical conclusion is IMHO
    that version 7.4 is the last one with a functional cy driver, for with
    version 8.0 they changed some basic serial functions leading to cy not
    to work any more.
