The patch is not right. The PCI device you talk about is a *dual* serial
I/O card. As such, puc(4) needs to attach to it, not uart(4). Adding the
PCI ids to uart(4) will only cause a conflict, not to mention that if
uart(4) attaches, it only attaches to the first.
However, the patch shows that the clock on these cards is 8 times the
default clock. I think that is why puc(4)+uart(4) doesn't work. If
you select a baudrate that 8 times lower than what you know the baudrate
should be, then you should be able to transmit and receive data. If
that's the case, then puc(4) needs to be fixed to have the correct
clock value for these boards.
Note also that I have not heard of uart(4) being wrong in classifying
the
type as 16550, 1660 or otherwise.
FYI,
