[gentoo-user] /dev/ttyS0: Too many levels of symbolic links

[Michael Hartmann]

Hi list,

I tried to use a serial device, but /dev/ttyS0 is a symlink to /dev/tss/0 
and /dev/tss/0 is a symlink to /dev/ttyS0 (again)
/dev/ttyS0 -> /dev/tts/0 -> /dev/ttyS0 --> [...].
I don't know if I have compiled the right kernel drivers for serial devices 
(in fact I've compiled and loaded these kernel modules: 8250.ko  8250_acpi.ko  
8250_pci.ko  8250_pnp.ko  serial_core.ko).

However, /dev/ttyS0 shouldn't be a recursive symlink.

I'm using the latest (unmasked) udev available with gentoo.

Any ideas?

Thank you,
Michael
