Subject: Comtrol Rocketport driver is severely hosed under 6.x-STABLE X-BeenThere: freebsd-stable@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: Production branch of FreeBSD source code List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Thu, 07 Sep 2006 14:01:02 -0000 There is a severe problem (or set of problmes) with the Comtrol Rocketport driver under FreeBSD 6.x, to the point that the driver is basically unusable. The driver is returning duplicate input frames and otherwise misbehaving badly. There were no problems under FreeBSD 5.x. Does anyone know what has changed in the tty subsystem between 5.x and 6.x, or, alternatively if there is no update on this, is there a KNOWN WORKING PROPERLY multiport serial board under 6.x? This has totally hosed a number of my field installations when they attempted to go from the 5.x operating environment to 6.x!
