A neighbour's computer has five serial ports, one on the motherboard and four on a PCI card. However, only four cards are showing:

All five ports work in Windows, and replacing the PCI card with another identical, known good card showed the same results. This is Ubuntu 10.04. Is Ubuntu limited to only four serial ports?
