03:14:40 <myrkraverk__> nikolam left?  Is my guide at http://www.myrkraverk.com/blog/2014/04/illumos-getting-started-with-mdb/ obsolete now?
05:58:42 <richlowe> myrkraverk__: tsoome would be the one who knew (assuming this is actually about the serial stuff, not mdb)
06:00:09 <myrkraverk__> Yeah, I meant the section about setting up a serial console.
06:00:33 <richlowe> unfortunately, i have no idea :\
06:00:51 <richlowe> i know toomas made attempts to made it better and more foolproof, but I have lost all sense of time
06:01:02 <richlowe> so whether that was less than 10 years ago is a mystery
08:39:22 <tsoome> he (nikolam) seems to have something odd going on (double ttya in his paste im not really sure is for real or typo), but there is currently too little of information about the system.
08:49:46 <tsoome> the problem with UEFI and serial ports is that there is no way to consistently identify the ports, there is SERIAL IO (abstraction) protocol to access ports via enumerated handles, but thats about it. Eventually I found the one way by checking for physical access protocols, but that also means identifying corner cases and is a bit of hit and miss.
