Hi,
i just learned the 8051 programming n some linux. i m interested in Serial Device driver.
please help how to start?
 

First things first, write your device driver on your Linux box to talk to your device.

For example: say you have a device that displays text. You should write a small program on your PC that accepts a line of text and displays it on the microcontrolled device like './bin/DisplayText hello world'

Next you can modify your program to work as a device driver, load it as a module and away you go. There are plenty of tutorials if you look through google like this one: http://www.freesoftwaremagazine.com/articles/drivers_linux

I hope that points you in the right direction. Good luck!
 

There are guys working on linux version for PIC Users, why not find them, share your common interest.
Funny.
