i have a USB-Serial Controller by Prolific Technology, Inc.

I tested to see if the device works on FreeBSD on FreeBSD6 machine.
the serial controller works when i load ucom and uplcom modules.
a ucom0 device is generated  along with tty and cua devices.

when i connect to a FreeBSD 5.4 machine with ucom and uplcom modules loaded=
.
an ucom0 device is generated but the tty and cua devices are not present.
are those not generated automatically in 5.4?  do i need to issue a command
to get the devices working?

TIA,
Tomoki
