Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: hardware-owner@FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I have a system with 4 16550 capable serial ports. All run on their own IRQ and I/O address. Two of the ports are internal modems [a 14.4 and a 28.8] and card has another 2 ports each connected to 28.8s. All ports [as above] are 16550 UART'd. When one connection is open full blast [a slip] there is no problem. The minute I try to use kermit to dial out to a local system for giggles, or even another modem on the same machine I get : system /kernel: sio1: 1 more silo overflow (total of 10) for example. I really hope this has more to do with some setup problem that I can fix than some fundamental hardware problem that I can't circumvent! Any ideas/insight etc would be _greatly_ appreciated! -Jerry.
