Recently I got a PC as a present, but it didnt have LPT or COM connectors, so I bought a PCI expansion card.
Linux drivers were included on the cd (source code for a module) but I'm having problems with compiling them.
Netmos Driver Updater
NetMos 9835 PCI Multi-I/O Controller The Nm9835 is a PCI based dual-channel high performance UART with Enhanced bi-directional parallel controller. The Nm9835 offers 16 byte transmit and receive. MosChip NetMos Nm9835CV Input Driver The Nm perform serial- to-parallel conversions on data received from a peripheral device, and parallel-to-serial conversion on mocship received from its CPU.

first of all the card is recognized as such:
so the system is able to detect it just fine
after I tried to make the module i got this:
said line #27 is in the 'default' section of Makefile
this got me mad and i just removed the line and saw some progress with my attempt at compiling since it ended without an error and a script named ioctl
after launching (user input in bold)

ttyF0 didn't exist obviously, so i made a list of files in /dev with and without the card, here's a diff of it
so on my next attempt I used hidraw0 since it seemed to be a good candidate:

i browsed the web some more and decided to create /dev/ttyF0 on my own as suggested here
it didn't work again and I'm out of ideas at this point.
if anyone could drop a hint or look at the source I'd be grateful.
(the rest of the Makefile is obsolete due to depending on SysVinit to load the module)
i also found some patches but i have no idea how to apply them
