Hi, I tried once more the suggestion of Ulrich Spörlein to build kernel without uart, and as before, the devicefile-numbering turned out odd (additional serialports are now /dev/cuad0-3, and motherboard port has devicefile /dev/cuad4. The sio's are accordingly sio0-3 / sio4). The ports seemed to work just fine, including /dev/cuad0 and /dev/cuad4.
I made the same change on our two installations, and have had no problems since then. The data keeps on coming minute after minute (1 1/2 days now.) All I really did was the change in /sys/i386/conf/GENERIC (comment out the 'uart'-line): #device uart # Generic UART driver Regards, Timo -----Original Message----- From: owner-freebsd-sta...@freebsd.org [mailto:owner-freebsd-sta...@freebsd.org] On Behalf Of Timo Rikkonen Sent: 2. helmikuuta 2009 10:20 To: Mike Tancsa; freebsd-stable@freebsd.org Subject: RE: /dev/cuau* ports hang after a while Hi, Have now tried this with 7.1-RELEASE, unfortunately with same results as before, the ports still hang after some time. -Timo -----Original Message----- From: Mike Tancsa [mailto:m...@sentex.net] Sent: 30. tammikuuta 2009 14:52 To: Timo Rikkonen; freebsd-stable@freebsd.org Subject: RE: /dev/cuau* ports hang after a while At 05:50 AM 1/30/2009, Timo Rikkonen wrote: >Hi, > >The speed is 9600.
