Hi All, I am trying to get a NetMos 9835 multiport card having 2 serial and 1 parallel port working with my box which is running FreeBSD 5.3-RELEASE. I tried looking for info in previous posts but havent made any headway. I have enabled sio2 and sio3 in /boot/device.hints but get the following in dmesg. -- For serial ports on motherboard sio0 at port 0x3f8-0x3ff irq 4 flags 0x10 on isa0 sio0: type 16550A, console sio1 at port 0x2f8-0x2ff irq 3 on isa0 sio1: type 16550A -- For serial ports on NetMos 9835 card. sio2: configured irq 5 not in bitmap of probed irqs 0 sio2: port may not be enabled sio3: configured irq 9 not in bitmap of probed irqs 0 sio3: port may not be enabled unknown: <PNP0501> can't assign resources (port) unknown: <PNP0501> can't assign resources (port) unknown: <PNP0400> can't assign resources (port) unknown: <PNP0700> can't assign resources (port) unknown: <PNP0303> can't assign resources (port) The section in my device.hints is - hint.sio.2.at="isa" #hint.sio.2.disabled="1" hint.sio.2.port="0x3E8" hint.sio.2.irq="5" hint.sio.3.at="isa" #hint.sio.3.disabled="1" hint.sio.3.port="0x2E8" hint.sio.3.irq="9" Furthermore on digging the manpages (for puc) I found that this card is in the supported list of HW cards and has the following entry in /sys/dev/puc/pucdata.c /* NetMos 2S1P PCI 16C650 : 2S, 1P */ { "NetMos NM9835 Dual UART and 1284 Printer port", { 0x9710, 0x9835, 0, 0 }, { 0xffff, 0xffff, 0, 0 }, { { PUC_PORT_TYPE_COM, 0x10, 0x00, COM_FREQ }, { PUC_PORT_TYPE_COM, 0x14, 0x00, COM_FREQ }, { PUC_PORT_TYPE_LPT, 0x18, 0x00, 0x00 }, }, }, Could someone help me out on this on what is to be done to get it to work ? Thanks, Rajarajan.
