I need to support 5 RS-232 streams with my FreeBSD 7.2 machine. I just
purchased UTS-408A-S1 8 port adapter. When I plug it in, I get the
following in dmesg:

uhub3: <vendor 0x0409 product 0x005a, class 9/0, rev 2.00/1.00, addr 2> on
uhub1
uhub3: single transaction translator
uhub3: 4 ports with 4 removable, self powered
ucom0: <FTDI FT232R USB UART, class 0/0, rev 2.00/6.00, addr 3> on uhub3
ucom1: <FTDI FT232R USB UART, class 0/0, rev 2.00/6.00, addr 4> on uhub3
uhub4: <vendor 0x0409 product 0x005a, class 9/0, rev 2.00/1.00, addr 5> on
uhub3
uhub4: single transaction translator
uhub4: 4 ports with 4 removable, self powered

Do I need to add a driver to my kernel? Right now I have the GENERIC one
installed. What devices should I try?
