Howdy,
    I posted to comp.os.386bsd.questions last week and got
some sympathy but no direct answers, so I thought I'd try my
luck here.  I upgraded from 0.8 to 0.9, and now can't get
my VT102 connected to com1 on my generic IDE card to
work.  The login banner and prompt appear as usual, but
programs that do terminal I/O (more, elvis) cause a row
of garbage to be printed and the line settings to be messed
up.  This set up used to work under NetBSD 0.8.
    Can anyone shed some light on this problem?

Dave
