Description of problem:System with a real serial port - during bootup the request-to-send lead is asserted and stays so, until an application uses the port. This is annoying when RTS is used to control a radio transmitter. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):I'm not sure how long this has been going on, but it's been a while. How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Monitor RTS lead on serial port 2.Boot up system 3. Actual results:RTS lead is asserted until I log in and start an application that connects to the serial port ttyS0 Expected results: Should not assert the RTS signal until something wants to use the port. Additional info:
Do you have modemmanager installed? If so, uninstall it and see if the problem goes away.
Thanks. That turned out to be the problem - case closed. Altho it was a little more obscurified than that - the program running is named modem-manager and the package is named ModemManager, so at first I didn't find it.
