We no need to unload the serial drievr's To access
the IO-space "03f8-03ff" or to acess the IRQ...we can
share the IRQ also by the flag "SA_SHIRQ"...
I had did a serial port driver....
for which user can open ,read/write data to serial
port....
i did not unload the Kernel serial driver... to load
my serial driver.....
u want to develop driver for serial port???
or
just u want to write an application for serial port to
read/write data???
or both??
reply me....

I find "03f8-03ff: serial(auto)"
Like someone said in the list , recompile your
kernel to remove
the serial driver or make it as a module.
how do I free this address space so that a drivercan request for this
region?
Any pointers?
If you dont load the driver the memory region and
the Irq's should
be free to use.
