This looks fine except it should be "/usr/libexec/getty std.9600".
Note the leading slash.
Paredes> i also use this one:

Again, it's "/usr", not "usr". And make sure d1200 is defined in
/etc/gettytab.
But, neither of these minor mistakes should cause this message:

Despite all common sense about what the messages says, it really means
the *kernel* isn't configured to talk to the device. You need to
enable multiport sio devices in your kernel config file. See the FAQ
on how to do this.
