-	  <para>When I compile a kernel with multi-port serial code, it
-	    tells me that only the first port is probed and the rest
-	    skipped due to interrupt conflicts.  How do I fix
-	    this?</para>
-
-	  <para>The problem here is that &os; has code built-in to keep
-	    the kernel from getting trashed due to hardware or software
-	    conflicts.  The way to fix this is to leave out the IRQ
-	    settings on all but one port.  Here is an example:</para>
