Hi,

I just installed a multiport serial card in a Pentium 75 running 
2.1-RELEASE and am getting the following errors on bootup for 3 of the ports.

sio4: 64 events for device with no tp
sio4: 64 events for device with no tp
sio5: 64 events for device with no tp
sio5: 64 events for device with no tp
sio6: 64 events for device with no tp
sio6: 64 events for device with no tp

The card (and all of the ports) is detected OK as this extract from dmesg 
output shows:

sio2: type 16550A (multiport)
sio3 at 0x108-0x10f flags 0x905 on isa
sio3: type 16550A (multiport)
sio4 at 0x110-0x117 flags 0x905 on isa
sio4: type 16550A (multiport)
sio5 at 0x118-0x11f flags 0x905 on isa
sio5: type 16550A (multiport)
sio6 at 0x120-0x127 flags 0x905 on isa
sio6: type 16550A (multiport)
sio7 at 0x128-0x12f flags 0x905 on isa
sio7: type 16550A (multiport)
sio8 at 0x130-0x137 flags 0x905 on isa
sio8: type 16550A (multiport)
sio9 at 0x138-0x13f irq 9 flags 0x905 on isa
sio9: type 16550A (multiport master)

can anyone tell me what the errors mean and maybe how to fix them ?

thanks,
Carey
