Hi

I am terribly stuck here at the moment.

I am trying to install a NetMos NM9835 pci serial card into my compaq
deskpro. My initial searches told me I needed the "puc" driver, so I
rebuilt my sources and installed 4-6-2-RELEASE with the following
kernel options:

device          puc
options         PUC_FASTINTR.

After my reboot I see the following devise in dmesg:
puc0: <NetMos NM9835 Dual UART and 1284 Printer port> port
0x1030-0x103f,0x10a0-0x10a7,0x1098-0x109f,0x10
90-0x1097,0x1088-0x108f,0x1080-0x1087 irq 11 at device 3.0 on pci0

However I also saw the following:
sio4: configured irq 11 not in bitmap of probed irqs 0
sio5: configured irq 11 not in bitmap of probed irqs 0

I tried removing the "options PUC_FASTINTR" but got the same
result.

I read the man page for puc and sio and added the following to my
kernel as the man page suggested:

options COM_MULTIPORT
device sio4 at isa? port 0x2a0 flags 0x701
device sio5 at isa? port 0x2a8 flags 0x701 

Now on a reboot I see the following:

sio6: type 16550A
sio7: type 16550A
sio0 at port 0x3f8-0x3ff irq 4 flags 0x10 on isa0
sio0: type 16550A
sio4: configured irq 11 not in bitmap of probed irqs 0
sio5: configured irq 11 not in bitmap of probed irqs 0

Can anyone tell me what this means, what I am overlooking in trying to
get this card installed.

Thanks

Mark
