Checking "man 4 uart" for 12-CURRENT says: /dev/ttyu? for callin ports /dev/ttyu?.init /dev/ttyu?.lock corresponding callin initial-state and lock-state devices /dev/cuau? for callout ports /dev/cuau?.init /dev/cuau?.lock corresponding callout initial-state and lock-state devices which is exactly the same as I see it on my 8.2 home system. So that part of the mystery has successfully been solved. :-) > I guess, my question may be transformed to "when did the UART driver > become the default". (may be around 7->8)? On 8.2, "uart" part of GENERIC. On 5.2-p8, "sio" is used instead. (Sadly I currently don't have access to FreeBSD systems v6 and v7.) That narrows down the search a bit - you just have to check the revisions of conf/GENERIC to see when the change happened. :-) -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ...
