I recently bought a Hostess compatible comm adapter and I would like to test it under FreeBSD 2.0 (I still have to upgrade, sorry). I tried this in my kernel configuration file: options "COM_MULTIPORT" device sio4 at isa? port 0x280 tty flags 0x405 device sio5 at isa? port 0x288 tty flags 0x405 device sio6 at isa? port 0x290 tty flags 0x405 device sio7 at isa? port 0x298 tty flags 0x405 irq 9 vector siointr but when I try to receive something from a modem attached to sio4 I get errors like this: Dec 25 19:14:39 radikkio kernel: sio4: 1 more silo overflow (total 1) I have to say that the board is not detected correctly: Dec 25 19:07:11 radikkio kernel: sio4 at 0x280-0x287 flags 0x405 on isa Dec 25 19:07:11 radikkio kernel: sio4: type 16450 (multiport master) Dec 25 19:07:11 radikkio kernel: sio5 at 0x288-0x28f flags 0x405 on isa Dec 25 19:07:11 radikkio kernel: sio5: type 16450 (multiport) Dec 25 19:07:11 radikkio kernel: sio6 at 0x290-0x297 flags 0x405 on isa Dec 25 19:07:11 radikkio kernel: sio6: type 16450 (multiport) Dec 25 19:07:11 radikkio kernel: sio7 at 0x298-0x29f irq 9 flags 0x405 on isa Dec 25 19:07:12 radikkio kernel: sio7: type 16450 (multiport) because the booklet coming with the board says it should emulate 8250s (not 16450). It seems a problem with interrupts since sending characters works fine. Does this board is supported by FreeBSD? If yes, what should I do?
