Lastly, to move into the production, I need a 16-port serial card well-supported by FreeBSD. The customer presently has a Digiboard PC/16, which seems half-supported, at best. I will be running 1.6, possibly 1.7 for the forseable future. Remember that the customer depends on this machine. What is my best route? New (from where?) driver for Digiboard cards? New card? If so, which one? Serge
