All,
  I'm getting "silo overflows" on my com2 (NetBSD 0.9).

Does anybody know how to fix this?  It jams up the port after a while.

This happens occasionally when running at 9600 bps, but often at 19,200.

I have a DX2-66, so I think the processor should be able to keep up with
it.  ;-)

I heard something about a "sio" driver replacement for com.c.  Anybody have
luck with that?  The software I'm using is "kermit" to set up the
connection, and then "term" to do the communications.

Thanks!

Mark
