We are using two Boca BB2016 for use as a terminal server using the Comconsole
thinger in FreeBSD.

Now, we found that we can get the lower 12 serial ports working well, but the
upper 4 ports will not work at all. Is there any known problems with this 
board or with the driver?

Plugging into one of the top four ports, on either board, causes problems with
the serial interrupts and can hang the port of the attached host.

						Thanks,
