At first I thought it might have something to do with sio1 itself, as all the previously reported problems were when people were either transferring large amounts of data across a ppp link with a modem, or were problems with a mouse. Admittedly, most of mine have been experienced when doing (not very) large ftp's. But I also get these errors during other times, when the modem is pretty inactive, but while transferring files from 1 drive to another. I'm running 3.1-RELEASE on a Pentium 166mmx, with 64mb of ram and 2 3.1 gig IDE drives. My dmesg shows the following: sio1 at 0x2f8-0x2ff irq 3 on isa sio1: type 16550A I have a USR Courier V.everything connected to com 2 across an analogue leased line (only connecting at 26,600) Any suggestions would be appreciated. --Rob To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
